“I love using Aveda colour because I can tailor it to each individual making it exclusive to each client. The colour formula is 97% naturally derived so I know I'm using the kindest, most gentle ingredients too so my clients’ are beautifully cared for as I colour. The final finish is glossy and iridescent and hair is soft and healthy,” says Jeanette Ellis of the Eden Hair Group.
“Because products are created with as many natural ingredients as possible, Aveda has extensive re-planting schemes and conservation programs to care for the environment, and is the only company whose products are created using wind power
“Aveda aftercare and styling products are also the best quality, using organic ingredients wherever possible, so your colour is protected and your hair is nourished. I believe in Aveda, its ethics and its mantra: ‘Beauty is as beauty does.’ So I'm very proud to be working in a salon that believes in Aveda too. At Eden we want you to leave us with shimmering, gorgeous colour that you can be proud of and want to come back for.” Aveda products are available for purchase at Eden Hair Group, Bishops Stortford (01279 758 050 www.edenhairgroup.com).
Neal's Yard Remedies are driven by the passionate belief that health and beauty should be more natural, less synthetic. This passion, and their firm belief that it's down to all of us to protect our precious planet, is at the heart of everything they do.
The skin is the body's largest organ, an active interface between our bodies and the environment. Sixty per cent of what you put on your skin ends up in your blood stream, so we believe it's really important to be fully aware of what's in the products you use.
Over the last 50 years, tens of thousands of new chemicals have been developed, most of which have never been properly tested on humans. We may not be able to avoid all of these chemicals, but we believe it makes sense to do what we can to minimise contact wherever possible.
Products combine traditional organic plant extracts with the latest advances in green chemistry to bring you the most effective, natural and innovative range of organic health and beauty-care available. They don't use any petrochemical based detergent or sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS); petroleum-based ingredients; parabens. Minimal preservatives are used (the trademark blue glass bottles were specially chosen as they cut down 97% of UV light) and no silicones; synthetic colours or fragrances.
Neal’s Yard commitment to using safe, natural ingredients with a recognised therapeutic tradition creates products that are beneficial to both you and the environment. All our products undergo strict testing to ensure they’re safe and effective to use. Neal’s Yard Remedies can be bought from The Green Room, Bell Street, Sawbridgeworth (01279 726 100).

Clever Skincare
"Pure excitement was how I felt when I found Dr. Belter skincare back in 2008. As a therapist for over 20 years and Lecturer for 10 years I have used a number of the leading skincare brands.
“These products were different, they made an almost instant improvement to the texture and condition of my skin. Following my discovery I offered a number of half facial experiments combining leading brands with Dr. Belter and 100% of these chose Dr. Belter Cosmetic. This is the reason that Dr. Belter Cosmetic is now available in the UK.
“I am very proud that our Professional therapists, like Pauly, display the same passion for the products. With a knowledge that we can provide a skin prescription service unique to our client needs combined with treatment to make a real difference," says Laura Cook of Dr. Belter Skincare UK.
