Bionova – a true revolution in skincare . . .
October 19, 2009
It is not often there is a sea change in skincare – a collection that truly revolutionises ingredients, delivery, analysis, diagnostics – and most importantly, results. But that is exactly what BIONOVA promises. Already a cult brand in America where it is sold exclusively at Barneys, it is now set to shake up skin care tenets here too. BIONOVA is, at its most basic – you, in a jar. It is the result of twenty five years of scientific research by CEO, Dr Michael Danielov MD, PhD – initially in the area of reaction of living organisms after traumatic shock. Dr Danielov discovered that if the body’s own active ingredients could be delivered successfully to damaged cells, they would be able to self repair. This discovery resulted in the creation of BIONOVA – a skincare range based on this unique technology, applied to a results driven skincare regime tailor made for you.
As BIONOVA contains only bioactive ingredients that are naturally occurring in the body, they therefore work quickly to be recognised and assimilated to aid the body’s own self healing process. These ingredients are delivered to the dysfunctional skin cells in tiny quantities, using a unique, patented process, to re-establish proper skin cell function and aid the rejuvenation process – quickly, safely and naturally. And the results are astonishing!

Ed Hardy – Original Fragrance Collection
October 19, 2009
Ed Hardy is a global fashion and beauty phenomenon. The clothes are worn by one-bold-name-only, triple-A listers – Madonna, Kanye, Justin, Beckham, Britney, Miley. The fragrance is spritzed in all the right places and on super cool necks everywhere – at launch it was number one in Macy’s, number one in France, number one in Australia, Canada, Germany, Holland – and now it’s about to take the UK by storm. This ultra-hip, edgy his-and-hers fragrance collection was inspired by Christian Audigier, the man responsible for the Von Dutch phenomenon, and created in homage to the famous Don Ed Hardy – the ‘godfather of the modern tattoo’. The designs are based on Ed’s own ground breaking mix of traditional Japanese design, Americana and hotrod iconography. And the smell? Sexy, fresh, modern, with a pinch of edge, a twist of cool and a stamp of individuality.
Inspired by Ed Hardy’s own vibrant, colourful designs, the fragrance is an explosion of sensations . . . . for her, sumptuous fruits – juicy tropical mango, delicious wild strawberry and ruby red grapefruit. After the initial youthful fruity burst, the dry down sees the emergence of a surprisingly sophisticated floral heart. This vintage floral posy with a ‘rock n’ roll’ edge uses black freesia to bring this scent a sexy darkness. Delicious and addictive, the florals merge with a background of hot sensual musks and warm soulful amber.
The Ed Hardy fragrance for ‘him’ is a tattooed woody floral. Bright and tantalizing citrus effects of Bergamot and Mandarin are touched by the aromatic expression of Thuja and the sharp bite of Clary Sage for an added zest. This opening is the perfect preview to a colourful Mint Julep cocktail that matches up with Ozone for a psychedelic explosion of colour and effervescence. Sequoia Scent Trek™ brings a masculine woodiness to the fragrance that is embraced by sensual Musk and a touch of Black Amber.
Available nationwide from Harrods (October), The Perfume Shop, Debenhams, The Fragrance Shop, Fenwick, top Superdrug stores (August)
