REN Photoactive Sunveil SPF15 – First up, a daily favourite! No white residue and never cloying, REN’s clever triple action micro-mineral daily SPF15 is sheer genius and it IS sheer – thankfully. Goes on over or under makeup. I don’t leave home without it. £26. www.renskincare.com

Balance Me “Minis” I love a good travel range and Balance Me’s cute little travellers often come with me.  Their Super Toning Body Cream is one to earmark for summer £6. www.balanceme.co.uk

Neals Yard Remedies Garden Mint & Bergamot Hand Lotion – I “cross-utilise” products a lot and this is one of them, which doubles as my hand AND body lotion in warmer months because it’s really light and hydrating,and the fragrance always reminds me of being out in the garden. This sat on my kitchen window last summer and lasted until early September! £12.50/200ml  http://www.nealsyardremedies.com/Garden-mint-and-bergamot-hand-lotion

Dr. Hauschka – Toned Day Cream Three words. “I am addicted”. This popped up during our 2013 Awards last month and at first I found it a little dense because it almost has the consistency of acrylic paint. But I’ve been mixing it with moisturiser and using daily and have yet to find a foundation-style product that gives this kind of radiance factor in 30 seconds. Instant glow for dry, mature or perhaps normal skin (but definitely not for oily). Well worth trying and very conveniently Dr. H. do a £4 mini sample size too. http://www.drhauschka.co.uk/products/face-care/toned-day-cream

Label.m’s Organic Hair Care Range is a new favourite of mine, particularly their Lemongrass and Orange Blossom shampoos and conditioners. The Orange Blossom shampoo £13.95 leaves hair feeling really fresh, the conditioners are rich and silky and the ingredients read like one big Mediterranean fruit bowl: including “Tuscan Mandarin Fruit, Organic Mediterranean Bergamot*, Regal Maltese Oranges, all Steeped in a base of Cypriot Orange Flower Water” http://labelm.com/uk/product/248/label.m-organic-orange-blossom-shampoo
