I can’t live without....

Origins Night-A-Mins
This enriched night cream is packed with minerals and is divine. It's such a lovely calming bedtime ritual – is it sad to admit that I actually look forward to going to bed just so that I can put it on?

Paul Smith Rose Perfume
I just love rose fragrances. I don't find anything granny-ish about them. This perfume is a lovely, clean modern rose scent, and was actually created from a peony rose that Paul Smith's wife grew and cultivated. It's lovely and light to wear all the time.


Irish Linen hand cream
This is one of our best-selling items in the Bog Standard range. It's a lovely everyday hand cream. I keep one in nearly every room of my house – you could say I am slightly addicted to it, but I believe that hands are worth looking after.

Mac makeup
I love Mac makeup – the coverage and pigments are fantastic. I like the eye shadows in particular, they are really easy to blend. My current favourite is the gorgeous shimmery "Star Violet". Only problem I have is keeping myself away from the Mac counter and keeping my six-year-old daughter out of my makeup bag.
