Laundry for Hair
Call us superficial but we always judge a book by its cover, I mean really, doesn’t everyone? On that note we are just crazy about Face Boutique’s Hair Laundry Shampoo. The funky packaging is bound to look great in any bathroom cabinet and the product is pretty good too. Packed full of mild plant extracts, lather it up to leave your hair fresh and shinier then a L’Oreal advert.

£9.50 for 300ml or buy the Body kit for £22 which contains a cute 75ml version, great for squeezing in the suitcase.

Rich Pickings
Aromatherapy Associates set the benchmark for all things aromatherapeutical with their luscious oils that treat mind and body. So we're very glad to discover their new Enrich range that brings a luxurious, soothing and ultra-softening element to body care. Dehydrated skin leaps back to suppleness with Enrich Body Scrub, Body Serum and Body Butter; the latter perfumed with jasmine, patchouli and tonka bean for extra exotic skin smoothing. Moisturised, gleaming and tantalisingly touch-me skin is defintely a look we'll be working this summer.

Quad Liking
Sizzling, bold eye colours are what this summer is all about especially if you are working the whispy, floral maxi-dresses teamed with gold, Ibiza-esq flip flops. It's a London look. Much like this fabulous little set of eye shades from Rimmel, aptly named Urban Queen. Vibrant blue teamed with smokey orange makes eyes pop; especially if you have a post holiday touch of tan. A snip at 5.99 from Superdrug, this is all the colour we need to be summer spectacular.
From £20

Heavenly Hardware
Ooh, we love a gadget! The Cellu-Smooth machine - that sends Ultrasound rays though your wobbly parts to tackle cellulite (by raising the temperature and breaking down fatty deposits) - is sweet and neat. 15 minutes a day should see your skin tightened and the appearance of cellulite improved, as well as boosting circulation. Infinitely more appealing than an electronic cork screw.

Beat the Shine
We are in a constant battle to beat the shine. No matter what make-up brand we use by midday our foreheads have a shine that would rival the sun. Rather then clogging your pores with more make-up why not try out SUQQU’s new Clear Veil Powder. Swirl your brush over the invisible powder (honestly we’re not kidding you, it looks like there is no product in the compact. I did have to stick my nail into it to be sure) and sweep it over your face to banish the oil. It really does work a treat!

First Look Studios is pleased to announce the acquisition of “Miss Conception,” formerly titled “Buy Borrow and Steal,” starring Heather Graham, Mia Kirshner and Tom Ellis. The film is directed by Eric Styles, written by Camilla Leslie and produced by Doris Kirch. Blue Angel Films limited co-produced with Miromar Entertainment AG, in association with BBS Productions Ltd and the support of Northern Ireland Screen.

Recently acquired by First Look Studios at the Berlin film Festival, The deal was brokered by First Look’s EVP of Acquisitions, Gary Hirsch, and Oliver Mahrdt of Hanns Wolters International.

“Miss Conception” tells the story of Georgina (Heather Graham), a broody 33-year-old woman who sends her partner packing when it becomes obvious that he does not share her desire for children. Zak (Tom Ellis) hopes she’ll cool off while he is away on a planned business trip. But Georgina, discovering early menopause runs in her family, hears her biological clock ticking like an atom bomb and must answer the call. She turns to her reluctant best friend Clem (Mia Kirshner) to recruit the perfect but unsuspecting man to fulfill her dreams for a child.

“I’m delighted to have First Look Studios releasing the film theatrically in the US,” says Oliver Mahrdt. “The producer Doris Kirch and co-producer Michel Morales are looking forward to the world premiere at the 25th anniversary of the Miami Film Festival tonight.”

“I am confident that women will relate to Heather’s character in this light-hearted look at a dilemma that millions of women face. At the same time, men will enjoy watching Heather and Mia Kirshner so it is a perfect date movie,” says Gary Hirsch.

“Miss Conception” is slated for a June 2008 release.
