Beauty, Body Care, Pro-Ageing, Skincare, Tools
I was delighted when I received an email inviting me to interview Kate Shapland to celebrate the fourth birthday of MyShowcase – I really don’t know where that time has gone!
MyShowcase offers a fantastic opportunity for women to become involved in the beauty business whilst introducing them as Stylists and their customers to the best of brands which are hand-picked by Kate.
As part of this video series I was asked to select four of my must-have products from the MyShowcase offering. After much deliberation and with the Fighting Fifty audience in mind I chose my picks.
Watch Nikki tell Kate Shapland, MyShowcase Co-Founder, why these are her top picks
Aurelia Revitalise and Glow Serum 30ml £57
As we age we often lose that youthful healthy glow. This lightweight serum contains probiotics, peptides and anti-oxidants to support skin health. It is rich in 100% pure botanicals such as Baobab and Hibiscus and the glorious fragrance comes from Jasmine, Plumeria, Tuberose and Mandarin which work to soothe dull and dehydrated skin and restore lost luminosity. Perfect to use am and pm.
Roques O’Neil Therapie Restore Aura Spray 30ml £10
I call this my little spritz of heaven and I truly wish the whole world could smell like this. I am never without this spray by my side. I use it to hydrate my skin and also to restore the balance of the space around me. Containing organic hydrosols of Rose, Wild Frankincense and White sage to purify plus Wild Rose and Fragonia to comfort. With Sweet Orange, Rosemary and cold-pressed Lemon, all of which restore clarity. This spray is a perfect introduction to the Roques O’Neil Therapie brand.
Legology Air-Lite Daily Lift For Legs 100ml £45
Tired, heavy or restless legs are a concern that many of us suffer from at some stage. Kate Shapland created this product to answer her own needs. Often caused by fluid retention and poor circulation she wanted an easily-absorbed, non-sticky product that gives the legs a feeling of lightness. Applied from toes to tops of thighs this light gel-cream will aid drainage and promote blood and lymph flow. I adore the scent of this treatment with Amalfi Lemons bringing a sense of summer and well-being and making it a pleasure to use. For additional benefits take a look at the rest of the Legology line, the new Sun-Lite Sheer Lingerie for Legs is next on my list.
Emma Lomax Airplane SOS Travel Kit £30
As an experienced traveller I pride myself on my organisational skills when it comes to packing however I know packing for that annual holiday often causes much panic. I selected this as my final pick to ease the stress of remembering all those little extras that you need when you travel. I must confess I fell in love of this gorgeous pouch – any excuse for another stylish little bag! Contains 18 items including must-haves such as a travel charger, hairbrush, toothbrush (pre-loaded with toothpaste!) and a nail file it is perfect for travel wherever and however you are getting there.
