We beauty journalists might like to think we know it all, but who better to recommend products to women than other real women? That’s the premise of new, organically conscious book the ‘Green Beauty Bible’ which pits multiple green beauty products against the rigorous testing of literally hundreds of beauty buyers. The ladies’ top picks included this wonderful Jasmine Eye Make-Up Remover from Korres which easily removes mascara smudge whilst cooling and conditioning, yet doesn’t rely on the sometimes filmy oil base of many other removers. And you know what? We can’t help but agree with them!

The summer sale season is upon us so why not fight the temptation to run to Zara and buy a cut price jacket you didn’t even know you wanted (and probably don’t), and head to online London boutique Start instead. One of the most generous sales we’ve come across, their knock-down summer offerings include Mulberry bags, Chloe dresses and Marc Jacobs knits for almost half the original price, as well as these super-cute peep-toe pumps from Miu Miu with a tasty £55 off. Now that’s what we call a sale.
