I had an email from a reader recently asking, amongst other things, my reason for blogging about Aveeno products when they aren’t completely natural or organic. A very fair question which lends itself to something I’ve been thinking about recently: what is Healing Beauty? When I started this blog my primary intention was to track [...]

Apologies for my absence…
June 18th, 2011 · No Comments · Me
…but I’ve been a busy lady recently! New job, moved house , holiday planning – lots of changes and lots going on. But normal service will resume soon (and when I say normal I hope to actually up the frequency of posting to at least twice a week). While I haven’t been writing I have [...]

Happy (Belated) Birthday Blog!
May 9th, 2011 · 6 Comments · Body, Cleansers, Face, Hair, Lips, MAC, Me, Sunscreen, liz earle
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 [...]

Diets: a rant and another way of thinking
October 9th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Diet, Me
It’s time for a little bit of a rant. But it’s a bit more serious than that though because I actually think what I’m about to say will touch upon nearly every woman’s life. You may completely disagree with my views, but it’s a subject worth thinking about, so that’s ok. All opinions are welcome. I’ve [...]
MAC Rodarte Update: MAC to Shelve Juarez Collection
August 17th, 2010 · 3 Comments · MAC, Me
There is yet another twist in the MAC-Rodarte tale… And not one I was prepared for. The last we heard from MAC was to announce that they were going to donate all global profits from their collaborative range with Rodarte and had met with a “collective group committed to working together on the overall direction [...]

Success! MAC Rodarte to Donate ALL Profits to the Women of Juarez
July 30th, 2010 · 4 Comments · MAC, Me
Yesterday, from a small internet cafe in Tunisia where I’m currently away on holiday, I heard the news (via email and Twitter) that MAC is to donate all global profits from their upcoming collaborative collection with Rodarte to “ a newly created initiative to raise awareness and provide on-the-ground support to the women and girls in Juarez”.

Petition to MAC and Rodarte: Let’s Make a Longterm Commitment to the Women of Juarez
July 22nd, 2010 · 13 Comments · MAC, Makeup, Me
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/macrodarte/ As I stated in my previous post, I personally do not feel that the responses from MAC and Rodarte on the issue of their upcoming beauty range ‘inspired’ by the area of Ciudad Juarez are adequate. I appreciate their apologies and MAC’s pledge to make a donation, but feel that $100,000 is not enough [...]

July 20th, 2010 · 6 Comments · MAC, Makeup, Me
Late last night (UK time), 19th July, MAC and Rodarte released official statements updating their position on the Rodarte – MAC collection, presumably in response to the uproar beauty bloggers have fuelled across blogs and over twitter in the past two days. Their full statements are below: STATEMENT FROM M·A·C COSMETICS ON THE M·A·C RODARTE [...]

MAC and Rodarte Collection and the Women of Ciudad Juarez
July 18th, 2010 · 24 Comments · MAC, Makeup, Me, Uncategorized
A wave of controversy has washed through the beauty blogosphere this weekend. I was alerted to it via the weird and wonderful world of twitter, which is fast becoming my first port of call for news, both gossip, beauty and fashion related, and increasingly, political. The recent upset chatter is in reaction to the Fall [...]
