It's been a while.....

I can't believe where the time goes, it was April when I last posted and I know I had good intentions at the time to write at least once a week. My mind is always full of things, exciting ideas, positive business response and of course much more, so why have I neglected you all? 

Well from a personal point my life has had huge changes that zapped all extra energy that I would of put into extra work time.  Its been a journey, at times bad and other times amazing but we all have to absorb our life lessons and take what we have learnt from our daily living and love life and live for the day. That is so typical to hear I know but at the same time it is very true, we never know when we will live our final day and that's what makes life so precious yet exciting and scary at the same time. 

So back to it....

Another Little World has been fantastic, I am so excited by the support and response we have here. Since last time we have had Tessa Join us, such a beautiful young lady who puts her everything into her work.

 She is with us for three days a week and puts in extra hours when she isn't looking after gorgeous little girl. Tessa has introduced some new treats to ALW such as Essie nail care, Shellac, biosculpture and Minx. Fully qualified in all the therapies that we offer means we have more availability for all treatments. Tessa is a little star at everything and is in high demand for her nail treatments in particular, please give between a week to two weeks notice to avoid disappointment. 

We have been networking with lots of people, its a huge part of having a business and being situated in a small town it's good to bring local business's together. So my good friends who own the fabulous love and wonder in The Quedam invited us to down for an afternoon to offer nail treatments to their customers and general public, we had a huge response and have decided to offer this as a regular visit. If you haven't already take a little trip to say hello to the girls and guys down there and you must try one of their lovingtons ice-creams, their ethos compliments ours perfectly with their natural approach.

Mint Candy Apple by Essie, we had one little fan of this fun colour who impressed us girls lots at Love and Wonder. 

Lots of love, xx 

Parabens and other nasties...

Over 16 months ago I decided to try Organic and chemical free skin care, my reasons for this at the time were vanity.

In the past I have always suffered from a congested skin and as good as I could be with my skin care routine and having facials something wasn't working. I decided that I would give Organic and chemical free skin care a try and go from there, within a week my congestion had gone, my skin was looking radiant and felt and smelt amazing. So many people commented on how good it was looking and nobody knew what my little secret was! Thank goodness for Angela Langford.

I then began to investigate what the differences are between regular products and (skin care, cleaning products, toothpaste etc) chemical free products and the results were scary.

Parabens are preservatives, they are cheap to use and found in most products, we come in contact with them on a daily basis. We of course need to preserve all products that are made but not in a man made way, the natural approach is the safest. There are of course natural ingredients that can be used to preserve products and slowly there are more companies that are doing this.
Now as there always is there are two sides to every 'story' but if there are scientific results stating that there are links to cancer then I know that I don't wish to put those chemicals in my body.

Parabens mimic the hormone estrogen which is known to play a role in breast cancer, through research there have been evidence of parabens found in breast tumorous, they can effect sperm count and can cause ageing and may more studies link to many more situations.

Don't take my word for it, look on the ingredients list of any products you have at home and you will be amazed, it is usually a word and it then ends in 'paraben' eg benzylparaben.


I now use all products that are chemical free and try and spread the word to everyone I know, I even have clients passing on the information to their friends, family member and even strangers in shops!


At Another Little World we use Angela Langford organic skin care in all our treatments, available to buy from us direct.

Terribly Sorry...

Wow, I have been terrible at this blog malarkey!

It was something I wanted to do often, share my stories, my views and of course any help regarding this mind baffling world of beauty that I possibly could. It just hasn't happened as you can obviously tell, but I promise to sit down at the weekend and share all my news. One of the main subjects will be regarding the charity event that myself and Megan organised in January for CoppaFeel. If you haven't yet discovered this amazing charity please go to www.coppafeel.org.

Speak soon, x
