American Girl in Chelsea

A chic guide for American women who have relocated to London, England.

AG Speaks with Grazia Beauty Editor, Liz Hambleton.

July 25, 2011 | Leave a Comment

Last week I was invited to meet Liz Hambleton, Grazia’s Beauty editor, at Liberty. It was an amazing afternoon, and I was really thrilled to get to ask Liz some questions for us AGs. Well, us AGs that suffer from dry skin and hair…. 

I explained to Liz that after growing up in Southern California, I had a really hard time with dry skin and hair in London due to the weather, hard water, and central heating, and she provided me with some golden tips….

HAIR
First, Liz suggested that I try Rodin hair oil. With a blend of eight essential oils, this helps to leave hair healthier, more lustrous, and residue-free. You can nab this great product here. 


Liz is a big fan of the Kérastase shampoo and conditioner line, but I told her that after years and years of using it, I felt that it was adding a bit of build-up to my hair, and after trying I am obsessed with the Shu Uemura Shusu Sleek shampoo and conditioner. She agreed that she had tried and thought these also were fab. 


SKIN
For dry skin Liz recommended either the Clarins Face Treatment Oil or the Rodin Olio Lusso. 

The Rodin Oil is made from a blend of 11 essential oils derived from flowers and botanicals.  It can be applied morning and night, and is is perfect for anyone seeking hydrated skin, and a luminous complexion
If you prefer the all natural route, Liz recommended we try products by Weleda. I’ve found this Almond face oil that sounds lovely. 
A huge thank you to Liz, and the ladies at Liberty for having me! 

Has living in London wreaked havoc on your skin or hair? If so, what are your tips?
