After the parties and nights out, we're more than in need of a little detox. Try both of these products to get your body back to its best, well, it may take a little more than these two, but at least they're a start.

This two day plan leaves you feel refreshed, especially after a heavy drinking weekend. The Tisserand Detox Bath Oil (£8.10) is easily added to your bath water, just make sure not to get your hair wet, and helps to eliminate sluggish circulation, encouraging the elimination of toxins. It's the idel partner to help with a weight loss programme. (Both available from Amazon)
