Autumn is on its way, bringing with it shorter days and cooler weather and, of course, the start of 'back to school' season. No matter your age, there's something about this time of year that feels rich with new beginnings - a time to reflect and restart after the summer.

Secure eight blissful hours with the Essential Sleep Set.

If you have a to-do list that's longer than your arm, the last thing you need to be worrying about is dull skin.

The Illuminating Serum delivers a glow, while the Mineral-Rich Sheet Mask hydrates and plumps the skin. Lock all that nourishment in with the Essential Daily Moisturiser; quinoa extract protects and moisturises the skin. Included in the set is the Kahai Wonder Balm, a miracle multitasker that can be used to remove makeup or soften and nourish dry skin from head to toe.

As autumn draws in, your warm and cosy bed might start to feel a little harder to leave each morning. The solution? An awakening product combo to make your morning shower extra invigorating. Stock up your bathroom with the Replenish Bath and Body Duo; the energising Bath and Shower Gel followed by the nourishing Replenish Body Lotion not only leaves skin soft and smooth, but will also help to sharpen your mind and prepare you for whatever the day throws your way.

Take some time out from a busy schedule to recreate a Cowshed spa mani at home - the fool-proof self-care pick-me-up. An emery board and cuticle stick will leave nails looking well groomed, while the Nourish Cuticle Oil helps to condition nails and soften skin thanks to vitamin-rich apricot oil. Smother hands in a generous amount of the Refresh Hand Cream, pop on the cotton moisture-locking gloves and sit back for some much-deserved relaxation. Once it's time to take them off, you'll find your hands feel touchably soft and cared for.
