“The perfect products for the transition to autumn, not too heavy yet pampering … body oil lasting well even with lavish use … pulse-point oil is my favourite: has so many uses and is portable, so a great item for travel … I am using the serum more widely than usual, to treat the decolleté during the transition to cooler weather, and has helped … I have found them effective, calming, restorative and a treat at the end of the day … I can’t imagine anyone being disappointed with the quality, appearance, fragrance and experience of these products”
