At Pai we love all things skin...so I was excited to read about the latest exhibition at the Wellcome Collection in London.

'Skin' is dedicated entirely to our largest and often most over-looked organ.

The exhibition is split into different sections and spans:

• skin from the anatomist's perspective - views from 16th century to the present day.
• skin from the individual's perspective - how our scars, wrinkles and even tattoos document our life story and personal passage of time.
• skin from the sensory pespective - how it is a unique organ of touch.
• skinlab - a look at cutting-edge research and technological developments in skin science.

The whole Pai team will be visiting the exhibition at the beginning of next month - so hope to see you there! It runs until 26th September and is completely FREE so don't miss out.

For those of you not familiar with the Wellcome Collection, it's a brilliant centre dedicated to the world of medicine and its role in society.

It describes itself as the "free destination for the incurably curious". Just brilliant!

Bath and Body Works is having a huge sale on their Anti-Bacterial Hand Soaps.  This includes their Aromatherapy line of hand soaps as well.

Originally priced at $5.50 each, you can pick 5 for $15 or 7 for $20.  What a steal! And there are so many to choose from, too!  Here are my top 7 scents if you need a little inspiration. (I'm a sweet, fruity girl!)
