I’ve never used Butter London Nail Varnish but I love my Stiletto Stick so I decided to give this a go. My workplace are used to seeing all the beauty parcels I get and it’s the men not the women who are always hovering around asking what I’ve bought. This says it can be used as a body lotion but I don’t think you would get much use out of it because it only comes in a 50ml tube. It does however pop nicely in my handbag so I’ve been using it as a hand lotion. I got this one because I didn’t fancy the alternative ‘girly’ scents of Champagne and Country Garden. This one is black tea! It doesn’t quite smell like opening a fresh box of PG Tips but it is pleasant. I decided to share this with the men folk in my office to see what they thought. Passing it round the water cooler I got the following comments:
‘What does this do?’
‘How much did that cost you?’
‘This smells like sun cream, can I use it as suncream?’
‘I’ll try it but I don’t think my hands are dry.’
‘Real men don’t need that stuff….wow this is real nice.’
‘My hands stink now.’
As you can see from the fairly useless comments my office probably isn’t the best place to test hand lotion for men. However I love this – it sinks right in, doesn’t leave a greasy residue, and kept my hands hydrated all day. I wish the scent were stronger but I can live with it. I love Butter London packaging, it’s well thought out and I’d be happy to get this out of my bag in public to show it off. It’s Vegan and Paraben free too!

FACT - Women have only been able to legally vote for the last 82 years. Women over the age of 30 were given the right to vote in 1918. But it was a full ten years later in 1928 that all women gained full voting rights in the United Kingdom. Thanks to women like Emmeline Pankhurst we enjoy a right that, for the most part we now take for granted. Because of Emmeline, you can sleep soundly at night knowing that your opinion counts and your voice will be heard. So on May 6 make sure you vote! Here are the main and other political parties:
Liberal Democrats – How does £10,000 tax free income sound to you? View their full manifesto here.
Conservative – How do you feel about their immigration policy? Is it fair? View their full manifesto here.
Labour – Can they rebuild the banking system? What will they do to help the economy? View their manifesto here.
Green Party – Are they just about environmental issues? What about the NHS or Housing? View their manifesto here.
UKIP – Have you seen what they are saying about Pensions, Welfare and Social Security? View their manifesto here.
The Monster Raving Loony Party – They have a policy for the Loch Ness Monster! View their manifesto here.

Now that the warmer weather is here (sort of) it’s time to think about how your hooves will look in all of your chunky wedges, strappy sandals and Ipanema flip flops. If your feet have been hiding under thick tights and Ugg boots for the last 6 months they probably need some help. Dry, cracked heels and new Kurt Geiger clogs are not a good look!
Lotions and creams can be quite fiddly if you are in rush and Stiletto Stick solves this problem as the balm itself is in stick form (like a roll on deodorant) so you don’t actually have to touch it. It rolls over your heels very easily and makes them smell nice in the process. Prolonged use will soften the hardened skin. I would recommend that you get a pedicure first and use Stiletto Stick as a part of your heel maintenance. If you plan on wearing any footwear that constantly exposes your heels, you will need a foot friend that you can pop in your handbag!
