I’m back from the floodwaters and cold rain of the UK. It was hard to believe it was July last week in London. I did manage however to do a bit of retail exploring and one of my favourites was the Korres store on the King’s Road in South Kensington. I have known of the Greek, all-natural brand since it hit the scene in North America about 6 years ago but I had never actually tried it myself. I purchased the popular Guava Body Butter for my dry parts, the Wild Rose Mask for my pores and the Full Colour Gloss for my lips.

The results? The Body Butter smells like the most divine day at the beach - I put it on my hands before bed just to sniff it as I fall asleep. The Mask also smells amazing and seemed to leave my complexion a bit brighter and tighter. Finally, my search for the perfect all-natural lipgloss is over, this is it. The right shade of pinky-red, just enough sparkle, not sticky, and smells and tastes like cherries. What more could you ask for? And did you know that Cleopatra used cherries to colour her lips? Well, now you do. In Canada, find Korres at Sephora (they don’t seem to have the lipgloss yet). First impression: A+
