we wish you a very happy christmas & a beautiful 2026
Beauty Bible HQ is closing down for the holiday now and we very much hope you are doing the same. Having a rest and refresh is vital: so please take some time all for yourself.
We will be back in the first week of January with all the usual news and views about looking and feeling the very best you can - from our completely independent perspective: no ads means no bias and we never take fees for name-checking products.
And for 2026 weβre celebrating 30 years of Beauty Bible with the launch in late summer of The Beauty Bible Iconic Edition, published by Pavilion Books (part of Harper Collins). Weβve been reading proofs and feeling that, actually, itβs β well β really rather goodβ¦ Weβll keep you up to speed next year with that and all the other celebrations for whatβs been called a βBeauty Legendβ.
Meanwhile, donβt forget to enter our extra special Christmas prize draw with a bumper line-up of our favourite treats for winter body, face and hair, value Β£400. Itβs completely free to enter but, as we always say, you canβt win if you donβt enterβ¦
Check out Sarahβs Health Notes, with important information about keeping healthy over the holiday. And, of course, you can waft over to Joβs Scent Notes, to recap on her scent finds and loves.
And whenever you are beauty buying, please donβt forget to check in with our Beauty Bible Awards when youβre shopping for SKINCARE, BODYCARE, HAIRCARE, MAKE-UP, SUNCARE and TOOLS & DEVICES β our testers have given their verdicts, and we remain confident that these Awards really do offer a short-cut to products that truly work.
Remember: you can keep in touch with us via the CONTACT button at the top of the page, or click here. We always love hearing from you. Let us know your beauty βfindsβ and concerns (including health ones) β if we can help we will.
Have a wonderful festive season - and a good rest!
With love,
TIP OF THE DAY
Tip of the Day
If you're someone who meditates but you know you have a tricky week ahead β a packed schedule, travelling for work and/or staying in a hotel with noisy neighbours β pre-plan for failure. Happiness expert Gretchen Rubin recmmends that you anticipate as many challenges as you can and specifically think about what you'll do and say to overcome them. (For instance, a walking meditation in a nearby park, rather than trying to zone out the person in the neighbouring hotel room who's got breakfast TV on too loud...)
During these cold months, chest rub can come into its own, but hereβs an alternative use: use it to soothe aching feet. Try applying a thick coat of chest rub and covering feet with a pair of socks before going to bed at night. When you wake up, sore tired feet will be both moisturised and rejuvenated.
The kindest thing you can do during an at-home manicure or pedicure is to apply cuticle cream to nails or feet first, then soak them in water for five minutes before pushing back cuticles with a rubber hoof stick. This creates the perfect βframeβ for your brushwork.
Freshen up combs and hairbrushes by soaking them in a solution of 600 ml warm water and two teaspoons of bicarbonate of soda. Swirl them around in the water to loosen up all the debris caught between the teeth, then let them soak for about half an hour. Rinse well and dry flat on a towel before using.
We love this quote from our old friend Eve Lom: βTrue beauty comes from feeding your mind, as well as your skin.β
