Hi everyone. Welcome to the November edition of Lisa Loves. With the leaves now falling from the trees it is a good time to change up your skincare regime and prepare the skin for the harsh winter conditions. Skin tends to become dry during in the colder months so it is important to keep hydrated and exfoliate regularly to promote cell turnover. There are plenty of events at this time of year too, when our diaries fill up in the run up to the festive season. Most of the Christmas Lights are switched on over the coming weeks, Duke of York Square on November 12th and the V&A inspired Records and Rebels on Carnaby Street on
November 10th to name a few. One event to look out for if you are a bit of a foodie is Tom Kitchin taking up residency as 'chef of the season' at Harrods with a week-long pop-up in The Georgian restaurant from the 14th November. I would love you to come and join us for our special VIP shopping event too on Wednesday the 23rd November. It is great opportunity to find out more about our products and treatments, take advantage of some special offers whilst enjoying a canapé and beverages. ❤

Award WinningI am very excited to share with you the fantastic news that the Pro Effect Luminescent Base has won 'Best Primer' in the Women's Health Magazine Future 50 Beauty Awards 2016.

A Closer LookThe Award Winning Pro Effect Luminescent Base. HYALURONIC ACID We use sodium hyaluronate in our formula, it has a smaller molecular size than standard Hyaluronic Acid (making it especially penetrative), and is able to hold more water than any other natural substance—up to 1,000 times its weight in water.
Thanks to these two attributes, when applied to the skin it can reach deep down into the dermis to combine with, maintain and attract water. It also promotes skin/blood microcirculation and nutrient absorption, and helps maintain normal metabolism. Thanks to its super-sized hydrating properties, sodium hyaluronate will result in smoother, softer skin with decreased wrinkles and an all-around plumper appearance.

RecipeThis seasons recipe comes courtesy of the Smitten Kitchen cook book which was introduced to me by a good friend and client. Squash is one of the main ingredients that make up this dish, and it's orangey flesh feels appropriate for the season, the heat from the Cumen and Chilli powder is a perfect antidote to these cold nights. Spaghetti Squash is preferred in this recipe but I have used other varieties too like butternut which work equally as well.

Remember to still apply a Broad Spectrum Physical SPF on a daily basis. Even though the warm Sunshine has disappeared to other corners of the earth we are still subjected to the daily bombardment of harmful Ultra Violet rays. Try a tinted version to add a healthy glow.

Delilah CosmeticsI am really pleased to announce that we now have the fabulous Delilah Makeup featuring in all our makeovers and available to purchase in clinic and through our website. I love their concept and philosophy which is very true to the Lisa Franklin brand. Driven by a lack of boutique British brands, inspired by an abundance of quintessentially English influences from Britannia Metal, a traditional semi precious pewter coloured metal that inspired the design of the packaging, to the crown gold accents that run through the whole line. Delilah has been created as a capsule collection of carefully formulated cosmetics which offers women a touch of understated luxury they can enjoy every day. All the cosmetics are paraben free and no animal testing has been conducted or commissioned for any delilah products.
