If you are looking for something very special for your Mum this Mothers Day, ‘all for eve’ has got to be the perfect gift! This might just be the ideal way for your Mum to treat themselves with ‘all for eve’s’ range of relaxing bath and beauty products. What’s more is that every purchase made not only makes the perfect gift for your mum but a difference to other women’s lives with 100% of ‘all for eve’s’ net profit going to The Eve Appeal, a women’s charity which raises funds and awareness for Gynaecological Cancer Research – I couldn’t think of a better gift!
George Hammer (chairman of The Urban Retreat Group at Harrods) wanted to do something that would honour the memory of his sister-in-law, who lost her life to Ovarian Cancer. By creating ‘All for Eve’, he now raises funds and awareness into the research of gynaecological cancers by producing a wonderful array of bath and body products.
Many products are available including bath and shower gel (£5.50), body lotion (£8.50), hydrating and refreshing Body Butter (£10.50) and gentle exfoliating Body Scrub (£7.50), and their multi-award winning hand cream (£7.50). The Hand Cream comes in a handbag friendly 100ml size and is super absorbent; ideal for softening and hydrating hands with a little bit of luxury. I am a sucker for hand cream as my hands always seem dry – and I love ‘all for eve’ hand cream, it works an absolute treat.
‘All for Eve’s’ products have fantastic absorbing and moisturising elements, and are just perfect for a mum who loves nothing more than a bit of pampering after a busy and stressful day
A fabulous colour collection is also available, comprising of an eve red lipstick (£10.50) created by make-up artist Daniel Sandler; an eve red nail polish (£10.50) by the leading nail technician Sophy Robson and a Swarovski crystal nail file (£12.95).
‘All for Eve’ say:-
“These products were designed to be refreshing and uplifting, whilst creating a feeling of courage and poise and so celebrating women’s strength.”
You can purchase the ‘all for eve’ product range at Harrods, Fenwick, Fortnum & Mason, Harvey Nichols, Debenhams and John Lewis and selected Boots stores. ‘all for eve’ can also be purchased online through http://www.allforeve.co.uk, HQhair, Look Fantastic and Liberty online.

Customers are also able to pick up a leaflet with general information about cancer across the close to 2,500 Boots UK stores.

The RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) has been an integral part of Britain’s coastal communities since it was founded in 1824. The RNLI has saved over 139,000 lives in total, and rescues people every day.
RNLI Shop is the Royal National Lifeboat Institution’s trading arm that raises money through online, mail order catalogue and retail shops. With 100% of the profit from RNLI Shop going back to saving lives at sea, it is truly guilt-free and life-saving shopping.
February sees the launch of the brand new and updated spring / summer range from RNLI Shop including: new additions to the exclusive Yacht Dot range; a selection of British themes earthenware; great gifts ideas and gorgeous garden items.
These products are available online and by mail order catalogue, so there isn’t an easier or more worthy way to shop this year. And money does matter – in 2009 it cost £147.7m to run the lifesaving charity.
Clare McDermott Head of RNLI Sales states:-
“The RNLI volunteers provide such a worthy and vital service to the community, many of them risk their own lives daily at sea, which is why it is so important to give something back. RNLI Shop gives people another way to support the charity, while also doing a bit of shopping along the way.”
RNLI Shop focuses on nautical and coastally inspired products to reflect its long standing links to coastal communities across the UK and Ireland.
RNLI Shop also has 141 shops in the UK and the Republic of Ireland, which are staffed by volunteers and sell a range of local and souvenir products.
