On Friday 16th July we’re teaming up with Elysambre and one of their professional make-up artist to give you a free 30 minute makeover! This is a great opportunity for you to find the colours that suit your skin tone and the correct products for your skin type. Also if you are sensitive to many make-up brands you can experience how natural make-up feels on your skin. It’s not just about looking good, but protecting and repairing your skin while you wear it.

Gem (@gemstgem / Biography of a Beatific Beatnik) received a free makeover in April and had this feedback:

Had a lush free makeover with Elysambre, I loved it! My fave was the foundation, I have dry/sensitive skin so I was a bit wary about it, but it was amazing. Felt like I wasn’t wearing any but gave great coverage. I was also really surprised about the range of colours available – I thought they’d be quite neutral but I was pleased to see they had loads of party-tastic shades. The make up artist pampered me with purples and I went out that night feeling ace! Thanks Millies! xx

Makeovers are available 11am – 4pm and last 30 minutes. They can be arranged by calling us on 0113 2429 217, in the store of contact us from the site, Twitter or Facebook.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil from the Manoli Estate on the Island of Crete. This oil is of excellent quaility (acidity 0.3%) and has a distinct flavour without being overpowering. It has a mild peppery back note making it quite versatile. It can stand up to a good bread dipping but is subtle enough not to detract from other flavours if used in a dressing.

Costalata bottle – £1.95 (but then reusable).

500ml Manoli Extra Virgin Olive Oil – £4.29.

Fancy some Luxury Clotted Cream with Brandy to go with your strawberries while watching Wimbledon this summer? We’ve just got a new range of Créme Fraîche, Clotted Cream and Double Devon Cream Butter in from The Devon Cream Company.

The Devon Cream Company have been producing their fine range of creams since 1982 (that’s older than me!!). We currently have:

	Luxury Devon Clotted Cream with Brandy The perfect way to add a touch of luxury to waffles, ice cream, pancakes and strawberries, or just carefully stir into coffee for a special treat.
	Devon Clotted Cream Traditional Clotted Cream contains a minimum of 55% milk fat and its richer flavour is the natural accompaniment for the perfect English cream tea. So try some freshly baked scones spread with cream, topped with strawberry jam and served with hot tea.
	Lemon Créme Fraîche A blend of tangy, Devon cream with a bit of lemon and sugar. It is an ideal accompaniment to a variety of desserts. It is firm, but thick, so it can be spooned into mini tart shells for dainty desserts topped off with a raspberry. Try it with scones at tea time.
	Strawberry Créme Fraîche A yummy blend of tangy crème fraîche and sweet strawberries, it is an ideal accompaniment to a variety of desserts, from chocolate fudge cake to Apple Pie and fresh fruit.
	Double Devon Cream Butter Churned in the traditional way and lightly salted to produce the best tasting English Butter. This hand wrapped butter is made with fresh Double Devon Cream.

Mark and Sally at Nova Scotia Farm in Leeds have created a fantastic range of meals for your freezer. Made from supreme quality Yorkshire beef, these environmentally-friendly, minimalist packaged dishes use only the freezer to preserve the food. They are ideal to keep in the freezer for your convenience.

We currently have:

Supreme Yorkshire Mince

A traditional British dish, mince Beef with a deep beefy gravy made from bouillon. Onion, carrot, swede, and garden peas all combined to create a true comfort meal. Rest assured we do not use the word ‘supreme’ lightly. Just add potatoes of your choice or perfect as a base for a cottage pie or mince hotpot … perhaps simply ladle into a giant Yorkshire pud? ‘It’s your secret ingredient’ … Enjoy!

Beef Chilli Con Carne

Mexico’s best export is enjoyed around the world. The name means chilli with meat, so that’s what we’ve done. Generously made with Supreme quality Yorkshire mince, tomato, onion and red kidney beans. Chilli spiced just how we think it should be. Not mild or silly hot. Made just as you would at home but without the hassle. All you get is the heat!! Fantastic spooned over a Jacket potato or rice. How about served in tacos or burritos, with crisp salad?, Sri Sri Amigo!!

Beef Stroganoff

From the banquet tables of Imperial Russia’s tsars. A decadently rich cream and brandy sauce binding together sauteed strips of tender steak, sliced mushroom and onion. Seasoned with a hint of paprika. Simply wonderful served with a wild grain rice and sprinkled with finely cut parsley.

Boeuf Bourguignonne

A classic French dish, the name is taken from Burgundy wine. Our prime heifer beef is recognised here by use of the feminine spelling. A passionately rich, deep and dark, ruby sauce from our red wine and tomato puree reduction. Finest cubed steak, pearl onions, button mushrooms and to give the dish some classic flavour, lean bacon and a hint of garlic. Wonderful with fresh seasonal vegetables.

This range is great to keep in the freezer in case of emergency – for when you get home after a long hard day and can’t be bothered to cook, but want some good quality food. Here we tried the Beef Chilli Con Carne, made with quality Yorkshire mince. Two generous portions that worked out at just £3 each and was gorgeous.

It featured:

• 150g French Brie
• 150g Smoky Cardinal
• 150g Raclette
• Choc Affairs Half Kilo ‘Slab’ Chocolate Bar
• Choc Affairs Hot Chocolate Stick
