A COTSWOLD business has joined with another local company to produce a revolutionary beauty project.

When award-winning entrepreneurs Emma Heathcote-James, who works in Broadway, and Julie Waddell, from Sutton Colefield met at a small business mentoring event last year, they inevitably discussed their successful little companies.

The pair discovered they share the aim of producing artisan luxury, British products using natural, traditional methods and ingredients.

They also both enjoy a glass of wine, which led to a discussion about how the long hours of running a start up can take a toll on one’s skin.

And then the lightbulb moment came, why not combine the natural richness of Moorish Smoked Humous ingredients; with rapeseed oil, rich tahini and hormone-boosting chickpeas with Emma’s luxury green beauty expertise.

The next day they went into Emma’s inventing workshop in Broadway and barely needed to change their combined recipes, replacing their usual oatmeal with crushed chickpeas to create a wonderful facemask and matching chick pea crammed cleansing soap bar.

In testing, 2 out of 2 partners agreed their loved ones had never looked more fresh and beautiful.

After leaving on for 5 minutes then washing off gently with tepid water; the sweet scent of garlic with musty smoked undertones smelt temptingly delicious and only a little lingering.
