Following on from my last post I thought I’d tell you what I picked up on my travels in Hong Kong and Thailand. There were a lot of mysterious, intriguing products out there, most of which I couldn’t read the ingredients of and didn’t know exactly what they were. I find shopping for beauty products [...]

Holiday Beauty Products: Part 1
July 25th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Body, Cleansers, Essentials, Healers, Sunscreen
Last week I returned from a ten day holiday in Asia – first stop to Hong Kong and then for a few days in Thailand. It was amazing, unsurprisingly. Now I won’t tell you what I ate and drank as it wasn’t very Healing Beauty at all. But I will tell you what products I [...]
Aveeno skincare – the original and still the best
June 5th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Body
When I first started blogging about natural beauty I was already using Aveeno products, in particular their body lotions. Aveeno is one of the few ‘natural’ brands that’s available in high street drug stores such as Boots, so it’s pretty accessible, and not too expensive either. A year or so later and I still go back [...]

Happy (Belated) Birthday Blog!
May 9th, 2011 · 7 Comments · Body, Cleansers, Face, Hair, Lips, liz earle, MAC, Me, Sunscreen
Being the neglectful and inattentive blog mother that I am, I forgot my poor little one’s birthday this year. And it was an important birthday too – a big milestone in its young life. Healing Beauty turned one on 22nd April. If I sound a little dispirited it’s because it’s with a twinge of guilt [...]

The Lavender Lady
April 18th, 2011 · 3 Comments · Bath, Body
A little while ago I took a few days off work, packed a bag full of my thickest socks, cardigans and jumpers and boarded a train from London Paddington to Devon. That’s where my dad lives, and it’s cold. My dad moved about ten years ago from London back to the same village he grew [...]
Tried and Tested: Shower Gels
April 5th, 2011 · No Comments · Body, liz earle
I’ve done a few ‘tried and tested’ posts on the blog now and think they’re quite useful (I hope). It’s nice after months of testing out products of the more natural variety that I’m starting to find brands that I keep coming back to, yet discovering new ones along the way. I’ve found, often by [...]

Parissa Hot Wax
March 15th, 2011 · No Comments · Body, Waxing
Last weekend I had a date with a pot of hot wax. A long overdue date in fact. I was sent Parissa Hot Wax to try a few months back but just hadn’t gotten around to using it. It is Winter after all, and waxing is something I usually reserve for the week (OK, day) [...]

Metique Tea Tree Oil Hygienic Skin Wash and Cleanser
February 14th, 2011 · No Comments · Body, Hands
After trying and enjoying Metique’s body lotion I was recently sent their Tea Tree Oil Hygienic Skin Wash (250ml) and Hygienic Cleanser (100ml) to try. The Metique range is all made with tea tree oil, a natural antiseptic, and the range, originating in Australia, was created with salon beauty and healthcare professionals in mind. Formulated [...]

Tried and Tested: Body Lotions
January 20th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Body, liz earle
I’ve been neglecting my poor little blog recently – well, for months if I’m honest. I really don’t know how other bloggers do it: working full time jobs and coming home each evening to write in depth reviews, take photos, etc. I love it, but I find it tiring and after a day in front [...]

Winter Skin Savers
November 14th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Body, Cleansers, Essentials
My skin is always on the dry, sensitive side, but in winter it goes to the extreme. As the temperature drops outside and the central heating goes on inside, my skin starts screaming at me (metaphorically): it’s dry, flaky, and patchy…not a good look. So, during the winter months I have to be extra careful about [...]
