Silver nail tip jewellery
These are gorgeous, though probably not practical and way too over the top for anything but the most bling situations. I used to have long nails – from when I was a teenager until my mid-thirties. I am...

Penhaglion’s Quercus range
Several of the hotels I stay at use Penhaglion’s Quercus in the bathrooms. Usually soap, shower gel, body lotion, shampoo and conditioner. I tend to travel with my own mini-toiletries, so I bring the...

Clinique GWP (Gift With Purchase)

Two of my favourite Swedish beauty brands
From Face Stockholm and Make Up Store. The body wash has a nice subtle smell and foams nicely without being harsh or chemical on the skin. I very seldom use makeup and I am extremely ham-fisted when...
