London’s first high fashion export, Twiggy and the latest platinum catwalk pixie Agyness Deyn, are among the generational icons that exemplify UK style. London most definitely is the globe’s breeding ground for the avant guard in fashion, design and the arts. Culture in the UK thrives on being at the “edge” of cutting edge.

I just love the English, one aspect of their personality is very invested in being proper, somewhat dry and reserved, but on the other side they are fabulously flamboyant and alive in their very open desire to be adventurous in their self expression. The evolving look of the UK trend is clean and simple with a twist of extreme whimsey. Examples of the hottest looks in fashion were displayed at this years London Fashion Week, upcoming designers such as Caroline Charles, Ashish and Atoni & Alison made their fashion point of view heard.

Taking care of the body is anything but bland in the thriving beauty world of the London underground. One popular treatment for lustrous shining hair uses bull sperm to nourish and bring life to dull locks. The british appetite for beauty is much more bold than the country’s cabbage and potatoes culinary roots. I am sure that Peta would support such a use of an animal by-product, the method of extraction is most likely quite pleasant for the bull, but I digress.

The big news from the Cosmetic Kitchen is the exclusive launch of our Superfood Facial at Hari’s Salon and Spa. Hari’s is an institution in London, for over 30 years Hari’s has been servicing the follicles and complexions of London’s most beautiful people.

Welcome to Body Deli’s new blog! It has been a crazy busy year at The Body Deli. We have been busy in our cosmetic kitchen blending up the freshest and yummiest skin treats around. Plus we have launched a new website and expanded our brand into exciting new markets. Such as our expansion into the UK with our brand new Superfood Facial at London’s hippest beauty hotspot, Hari’s Salon and Spa.

We have even started working with doctors who are realizing the benefits of feeding the skin with pure all natural ingredients. This has been the year for star power. Stars like Kate Hudson, Goldie Hawn, Robert Downey Jr, Alicia Silverston, Agyness Deyn and Cobie Smulders have been so supportive. Kate even went so far as to name Body Deli as one of her favorite “green” beauty brands in her interview with Elle Magazine. Our message has been spread through great features in top publications such as; Elle, Shape, InStyle, InTouch Weekly, Cosmo Girl and LA Confidential.

It is an exciting time to be in the beauty business, trends are changing and people more and more are realizing that their skin is the largest organ of their body and feeding it the same high quality nutrition that they do internally is just as important. We are even more committed and passionate about searching the world over for the finest Superfoods to deliver true health giving results. Because a healthy body is a sexy and beautiful body. Building Body Deli into the freshest and most exciting brand around has been my partner, Margaret and my greatest joy. What is next…there is so many exciting plans to come next year. I can’t reveal all of our upcoming adventures, but a few hints will be bringing the brand to the fresh, obsessed culture of Japan, and introducing the best of the best supplements and raw foods.

It has always been our vision to see Body Deli grow into the ultimate lifestyle brand for everything a living body needs to thrive inside and out. It is exciting to see it evolve and we can’t wait to share every step of the way with our amazing fans. I would just like to take a moment and thank all of our passionate and loyal customers who make our jobs so much fun!

Have a beautiful day,
Cosmetic Chef
