  1. Review of KeraHealth 360 Hair Health Plan for thinning hair

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon Thinning hair is a common problem for women in midlife and beyond. Our hair may well have been our ‘crowning glory’ when we were younger – but as we get older both volume and condition of hair can worsen. I was asked if I would like to try the KeraHealth Hair Health plan, comprising a shampoo, conditioner, supplement and scalp massager, developed specifically to help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth (you can read my interview with the KeraHealth founder who developed KeraHealth having experienced hair loss herself). KeraHealth Follicle Healing Shampoo and Conditioner I have used products developed to counter hair loss previously. Where KeraHealth differs is in its consistency. It is not at all cloying. It is light ,...

  2. Review of BIOEFFECT 30 day treatment serum

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon With beauty salons closed once again as we find ourselves in Lockdown part two, I thought it would be a good time to try some at home beauty treatments. Although I think I gave a pretty good skincare routine, now and again I feel it needs an extra boost. The stress of this year had definitely taken its toll when it comes to my skin. I am just part way through a 30 day intensive treatment cycle using BIOEFFECT 30 Day Treatment. This is an intensive serum containing EGF, IL-1a and KGF growth factors which are natural to the...

  4. Facelift for facial rejuvenation

    Comment
    Youth and facial appearance can be amongst the most important things for many women in the world. Unfortunately, as we age, the skin elasticity decreases, and wrinkles appear on the face. Most women try to hold them at bay by using cosmetics and beauty treatments. However, this usually does not have a lasting effect. In order to make your face younger effectively and quickly, increasingly women  undergo a facelift. One of the best countries for this procedure in Turkey. The facelift cost in Turkey is one of the lowest in the world, and the quality of procedures is at a very high level. With the help of medical tourism, you can easily undergo the ...

  5. Review of Nailpad : Great for home manicures

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon During lockdown visits to nailbars for regular manicures came to an abrupt stop – although I have to confess to never having been to one- I have always been quite low maintenance and managed my nails at home. However, I do know how frustrating it can be when doing your own nails at home to balance the nail varnish between your knees, or dip the brush cautiously into the bottle to avoid getting excess varnish on furniture or clothes. I am a fan of beauty gadgets – and the Nailpad is such a simple idea you wonder why it hasn’t been thought of before! ...

  6. Review of Bronnley Hand Lotion and Soaps

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon With constant handwashing (whilst singing Happy Birthday twice)  becoming the new norm as we move through the Covid pandemic, how can we best take care of our hands.  We tend to focus on moisturising our faces – but hands can often be neglected- with the increase in handwashing our hands need more support than ever. How often do you hear it said that neglected hands can give away a woman’s age – not that we shouldn’t proud of the age we are of course! Bronnley hand soaps were a staple in our house when I was growing up – a firm favourite with my Mum. The brand was established 130 years ago and has certainly stood the test of...

  7. Some of my favourite skincare beauty gadgets for women over 50

    Comment
    Article by Ceri Wheeldon As I write this during lockdown, I know many women are missing not having the opportunity to have their regular facials. As it may be some time before we are able to have any ‘hands on’ therapies while we wait for restrictions to be lifted, I thought I would share with you some of my favourite home beauty gadgets . I have reviewed many over the years, but these are the ones that I am currently using – and seem to be the ones I keep coming back to – and give as gifts to friends!   Cleansing Gadgets Sonic silicone cleanser ...

  9. Review of Dermaworks Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid and Retinol Serums

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon I am always happy to highlight new British Brands, and am also always looking for quality skincare products that work. I was invited to try Dermaworks skincare products, notably three products in their range: Vitamin C Day Serum Hyaluronic Acid Serum Retinol Night Serum Dermaworks says that their products are: Never tested on animals Vegan Free from sulphates Free from parabens I started my trial of the range during lockdown, when, to be honest, my skin was looking tired and dehydrated – a bit like the rest of in these stressful times!! I was pleasantly surprised. Vitamin C Serum The Vitamin C serum combines vitamin C with vitamin B3 and hyaluronic acid.  Vitamin C tackles free radicals and helps to tackle age spots and pigmentation. I have a darker area on...

  10. Review of Cel MDs new haircare range formulated to promote thicker hair

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon When we are younger our hair is often viewed as our ‘crowning glory’. As we age, the texture changes – and thinning hair is an issue for many women over 50. A new haircare range by Cell MD looks to address this. I have tried the shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. Here are my thoughts on all three of these products in the range. I have been using in place of my usual shampoo and conditioner for just over two weeks. I noticed a difference the first time I used it. Cel MD Microsystem Shampoo The shampoo has a thick consistency. It does not lather as much as my usual shampoo and does not have a distinctive smell. Which from my point of view is a good thing as I don’t like using overly perfumed products. A little goes a long way Cel MD Microsystem Conditioner Where this differs...
