Tibby Olivier Shrinking Violet Wrap

I have been wanted to find out more about this treatment for a while by Tibby Olivier The Shrinking Violet wrap.

As a whole in Britain especially we are always concerned about our face and hair but sometimes forget Beauty doesn't just start at the neck and finish on the face.

I am continental in my approach I have always been like this it is from the feet all way up to the head.

So when I was approached to try I was really excited even though I am not concerned with weight loss this wrap is about losing inches I lost 5 and 3 quarters evenly after one everyone is different but it is much more than this and that's why I am now a fan whether you want a confidence boost, special occasion one off, a course depending on your personal goals it is also for Men and Women enhance your figure or six pack or haven't got one kicks start your exercise routine all year round Maintence Christmas, Summer, New Year I could go on.

I was sent to one of the best in London  Katy Stack at DollyBirdsof London all details information at the end who looked after me.

I had too read a list of requirements before hand and medical questions unfortunately if you have diabetes 1 like my Mum can't have as speeds up your metabolism and would mess with her insulin.

Another benefit to this wrap is the detox and drinking at least 2 litres for 24 hours before throughout the day and No Caffine       for a London girl like me on the go I did miss this but well worth it and not for life.

Everyone is different and individual the detox did give me headaches and muscles fatigue and constipation but this is normal and as I say not everyone will be the same.

"The things we do for Beauty and Health"

I must point out you must not skip
meals and eat more heathy but when I come to my conclusion this Tibby Olivier Shrinking Violet is so worth it.



I wanted to wait before I jumped in with the Blog to really test and also the time to write up this blog well over 72 hours so my results are fact.

Katy was so professional gave me a thorough consultation before I started and explained to me what she was going to do she told me to empty my bladder 
beforehand as you are wrapped up for an hour another point not cling film but specially made not like some wraps I tried years ago and felt like a sweaty cheese sandwich also you don't sweat in this treatment you might experience a slight tingle.

Kate measured me so could compare before and after and the oil is measured out and applied while standing a nice little massage of upward movements and you are also wrapped in sections standing up and then helped into the bed   Katy never left me because as Therapists we were chatting as we both love the industry and her enthusiasm should be bottled and was telling me how it is so popular the Tibby Olivier shrinking violet wrap with all shapes and sizes and how she has seen it boost clients that are self conscious.

Katy mixed 25ml of the Shrinking Violet solution and shrinking extreme used as a pre treatment to spot treatment problem areas.

The wrap used is not used in food industry another interesting fact used by vets on horses and sports professionals.

My conclusion used by professionals ONLY trained Beauty Therapists or sport professionals and vets.

You cannot buy on EBay or Amazon have to go on a training course.

I had one off wrap would I have it again YES YES.

A to Z of Normal by Helen Barbour

This  is first book I have reviewed and I hope it is start of many more as you know my Blogs have been mostly Beauty but I  want to do more health and lifestyle products.

Helen Barbour got in touch with me to read her book which is a perfect holiday read and as it so happens I was on holiday when she sent me the copy.

I must admit I don't read as much as I would like due to time but that isn't excuse so hear we go I would describe this book as lifestyle with romance mixed in and tackles obsessive compulsive disorder which a lot of people live with this mental disorder.

It's main character Clare loves her boyfriend Tom but takes courage to admit that she has a secret eventually she lets him know thinking she isn't good enough all the way through you really want her to work through this. Her relationship with her other family members is like any other family we all have issues or arguments but at the end of the day they are family.
She lost her Mother when she was young and her sister brought her up and her father went into himself.

Sound abit depressing but the way Helen writes it has moments of humour and gives you a greater understanding of OCD.

This book is available on Amazon here are the links amazon.co.uk/Z-Normal-Helen

Order through all good book shops ISBN number 978-78132-3816

Worth picking up and reading and I would read it again as it is escapism and you never know what secrets people have behind closed doors and that's what makes a good story.

Phil Smith Hot Air Brush

I cannot tell you how much I love this new way of styling my hair it gives you great volume body and shine and you finish your hair style off with a shine shot.

How did I find out about this my Mum went to her hairdresser she asked her how do you style your hair?

My Mothers hair is fine a lot of it like mine and she has a double crown like me that is genetics for you.


My Mother routine is sprays some volume spray at the roots on towel dried hair then she places rollers in her hair looks like wordy a character from my childhood then she takes rollers out and this gives her hair a lift at the roots but to be honest this is my Mothers words two days if she is lucky but when it is Winter hat hair forget it I do the same procedure but no rollers semi damp hair volume spray then when hair is semi dry tip head upside down brush job done it has been alright with this procedure but as a beauty therapist I then tie up my hair a lot but I have since gone for the chop.


So my Mothers hairdresser said have you thought of Hot Air Brush which is a like a hairdryer and brush in one.


To professionally  blow dry your hair yourself is a skill and a workout and takes time.


I have been using the one above since christmas this is sold in Sainsburys for £11.99 reduced from £20 when my Mother bought hers bargain their are other brands but I didn't know if I would like it or could use it so tried my Mums then I had to have one and if it didn't work say it quick not a big amount of money wasted.

It is so easy and has transformed how i style my hair also I have used it and put on hat and still my hair falls into shape haven't touched my hair dryer since 

This would work on any hair type and I look like I have had a professional blow dry.

SEAMS Hand Cream


This is my first Blog for 2015 and for Christmas I took home SEAMS Hand Cream to use as freelance Beauty Therapist christmas is a hectic time as I Blog as a hobby I am often time short so hear we go.

This Hand cream was developed by Karen J Gerrard who I have met and is truly lovely.


What I like about this hand cream it is perfect for busy people on the go as you don't have to wipe your hands after using it as it is not greasy and it is not hand cream you just use at night which is part of theory behind this hand cream as it was originally created for fashion designers where their hands needed to be protected due to nature of their work and can't be leaving grease on expensive items of clothing  and time consuming work.  


SEAMS has the finest ingredients and it is totally luxurious Fragonia oi, Shea Butter,
Macadamia Nut Oil, Garden Cress, Keratin, Glycerine.


It is great for Fading age spots among many others benefits like conditioning cuticles and strengthen nails I would use this on my clients.

SEAMS is made in the UK.


SEAMS contact 0844 8094229 sales@seamsbeauty.co.uk www.seamsbeauty.co.uk


I also love the stylish packaging it came in pure white linen bag and pure white packaging.

You can also buy at Fenwick Brent Cross and used at the Dorchester Hotel London.

Retail price for 50ml £9.50
