Problem Solvers<br />
When luggage space is at a<br />
premium, multi-tasking products<br />
are a godsend, particularly<br />
when they don’t count towards<br />
your paltry hand luggage liquid<br />
allowance.<br />
I’m a big fan of PÜR’s 4 in 1 Pressed<br />
Mineral Makeup Foundation (£29).<br />
As well as giving great, lightweight<br />
coverage and a shine-free finish,<br />
it helps to nourish skin with<br />
ingredients such as lactic acid and<br />
shea butter. It also has an SPF of 15.<br />
While that’s not enough for warmer<br />
weather, it’s handy for cooler days.<br />

unpronounceable chemicals, these<br />
products are packed with natural<br />
ingredients such as aloe vera,<br />
seabuckthorn extract, hazelnut<br />
extract, ylang-ylang and, of course,<br />
roses grown on Alteya’s farm. See<br />

According to The Sleep Council,<br />
74 percent of people in the UK<br />
don’t get enough sleep. If you’re<br />
struggling to drop off at night, try<br />
Tisserand’s new Sleep Better Bath<br />
Salts (£13.95), Bath Oil (£12.95)<br />
or Bath & Shower Wash (£11.95).<br />
They’re fragranced with jasmine,<br />
sandalwood and lavender essential<br />
oils to help promote a feeling of<br />
relaxation. While subtle, the scent<br />
is lovely and calming. Available<br />
from Boots and www.tisserand.<br />

If you’re always reapplying hand<br />
lotion because your hands feel<br />
dry, it may be time to swap to a<br />
gentler, more natural handwash.<br />
Personally, I have to avoid any with<br />
sodium lauryl sulphate, as it makes<br />
my hands so dry and cracked they<br />
end up bleeding. I tend to use<br />
bars of soap instead, but also like<br />
vegetable oil-based liquid soaps,<br />
such as those by The Castilian<br />
Soap Company. They’re available<br />
in a range of fragrances, including<br />
peppermint, lavender and rose<br />
geranium. If your hands are supersensitive,<br />
try the fragrance-free<br />
option. From £8 at www.lovelula.<br />

Hair looking a bit ‘meh’? Try<br />
treating it to Alteya Organics’ Rose<br />
Otto Invigorating Shampoo and<br />
Conditioner (£14.20 each). They’re<br />
formulated to help strengthen<br />
hair, reduce frizz and increase<br />
shine. Forget ingredients lists of
