Ssshhh... don't tell anyone...

I won't lie to you...I am fairly bad at taking my make-up off before going to bed if I have had one too many lemonades on a Saturday night. This particularly Sunday, I have a hangover of epic proportions after a lovely and rather boozy day yesterday with some great pals.

I swear by Botanics products and they are literally the only thing to perk my skin up after a weekend on the sauce, which let's face it, is most weekends for Kendo. Each product contains an active ingredient which has specific properties; the toner contains 'Equisetum' to refine and tone, the cleansing mousse contains 'Sweet Gale' to purify and the delicious moisturiser has 'Horse chestnut' in it which has amazing anti-ageing effects and promotes a clear complexion.

When buying skincare products, you should ALWAYS look for the active ingredients they contain and choose carefully, according to the needs of your skin. For instance, if you have oily skin Bearberry or Neroli will help control break-outs and balance your sebum levels. Dry skin needs rehydration - acerola and rosemary are fantastic for doing this.

Right, today's sermon over. I need to go and write about facials and have a good strong brew.
