Your East Anglian Wedding - December 2020/Janaury 2021 (Issue 46)

WINTER’S TALE The Tom Ford Soleil Neige 2020 collection celebrates the incandescence of winter – think light dancing through frost. The new range offers even more ways to achieve beautifully glowing skin this season with light-diffusing shades, and colour- correcting radiance. I love Balm Frost (£44) for high-performance lip nourishment, and the Eye Color Quad (£68) containing four versatile, multidimensional shades – perfect for a glowing and dramatic winter-bride look. Discover more of the collection at www.tomford.co.uk Sweet dreams Wedding stress keeping you awake at night? We all know how effective lavender is when it comes to sleep and relaxation, but what happens if you simply don’t like the smell? Jo Kellett, essential oil expert for Tisserand Aromatherapy gave us three alternatives that have sedative properties for mind and body, offering a helping hand in the snooze department. Check out Roman Chamomile (£37.50, 9ml), Bergamot (£8.54, 9ml) and Marjoram French (£13.80, 9ml) Essential Oils. You could even make a blend of all three for a quality slumber. All are available at www.tisserand.com Hydrating heroes Ameliorate knows that facial skin is typically more prone to sensitivity than the rest of the body, so its scientists have channeled their expertise into a collection of facial solutions that reveal the skin’s natural radiance, helping to liberate your self confidence. The supremely moisturising formulations are charged with the brand’s LaH6 complex and include the Transformative Facial Serum (£33), Resurfacing Facial Cleanser (£20), Replenishing Facial Cream (£22), and Restorative Facial Mask.

This latest addition to the range is 100 per cent plant-based and contains founder Deborah Mitchell’s patented Nettatoxin, which works in the same way as bee venom, but uses only vegan-friendly ingredients. It’s designed to ease puffiness and dark circles around the eyes while relaxing fine lines and wrinkles. When you apply the nettle venom around the delicate eye area, the body’s natural defence kicks in. Of course, there’s no damage, but the skin is tricked into thinking there has been and starts healing, leaving behind tight skin that feels renewed.
