It has only been recently that landlords have stopped asking me for ID. However I do have laughter lines and I do live in an area where it’s not unheard of to have one’s face lifted… But was I really game enough to try a CACI non-surgical face lift? Heading down to Savana Day Spa in Westbourne Grove, I felt a little anxious…
Find out how I got on by reading my review for West London Living.

Maybe it is because Celia Burton is only 14 years older than Mini-Me that I find myself thinking about how proud her parents must be of all that she has achieved in her career to date. Aged only 21, full of energy, ideas, enthusiasm and an address book to match, Celia is the rising star in the glamorous world of make-up. Working with the likes of Jamie Winestone, Agnys Deyn and The Chemical Brothers in London, Paris and New York, Celia seems unstoppable.
Interviewing Celia for West London Living was more than a real giggle. I picked up a brilliant lip gloss tip (one colour suits all!) while gossiping about her West London Life….
Here is the interview on West London Living.

Superfoods, antioxidants, low in sugar, high in fibre, a balanced diet, 8 hours sleep… we’ve heard it all. But apparently we need to listen all over again as a new ‘life supplement’ has hit our shores.
Black rice, fully recognised in China but totally overlooked in the West, is now being revealed by scientists as the greatest superfood of them all.
Last night I went along to the Chi Yu Wellness Centre* (off Marylebone High Street) to meet Christa Nicola, founder of Wellwellwell Inc, and to quiz her on her new line of vitamins including freeze-dried, Black Rice Bran. (Black rice is full of antioxidants, vitamin E and fibre but the real concentration of nutrients is in the actual rice bran.)
£21.95 per 125g
Without preaching, she told me that one spoonful of Black Rice Bran has more anthocyanin antioxidants than a spoonful of blueberries but with less sugar and more Vitamin E. Pretty impressive.
Add to smoothies, porridge and yoghurt and watch a divine rich purpleness begin in your life.

Niall from One Direction
So it’s National Bread Week and, by popular demand, we’re popping it in the toaster… according to the healthy bread brand, Vogel. With around 94.2 million slices of toast consumed every day in the UK, Vogel have decided we need a facebook app which enables their fans to pinpoint their perfect shade of toast. And… because this doesn’t sound crazy enough, Niall Horan (from One Direction) decided to take a bite of his morning toast before auctioning the rest of the slice for charity. Perhaps not so crazy when we hear that his toast leftovers fetched a massive $100,000…
Now who has had their fingers burnt?
