Rihanna and the Coconuts

Not content with selling millions of records, having her own perfume, being the face of Nivea and generally being very rich, Rihanna is now the face of coconut water Vita Coco. With Madonna and Red Hot Chilli Peppers' Anthony Kiedis as investors in the water brand, we’re sure it will be flying off the shelves.

Madonna said: “'Rihanna is a natural fit for the Vita Coco brand and I'm so happy to have her on the team.”

Personally, we can’t stand coconut water – we tried it numerous times in the West Indies and really tried to like it, but no. That said, it is high in potassium so would make a good sports drink. There are even reports of coconut water being used as an intravenous hydration fluid in some developing countries where medical saline was unavailable. Multipurpose then!

Vita Coco costs from £2.05 for 330ml to £4.65 for 1 litre and is available online and in store at Holland & Barrett.

Become Beautiful at Tesco

There really is nowhere Tesco won’t go! The supermarket behemoth (and that term may actually be an understatement) are planning to open beauty salons inside Tesco Extra stores this month. Not the first place you’d think of when you need a quick wax!

They have trialled beauty services like threading and nail treatments already and the feedback has been positive. Apparently their aim is to improve the whole beauty product range within Tesco Extra stores.

We have tried their BNatural organic range in the past and were pleasantly surprised. We expected it to be rubbish but the cleanser and soap were very good, even on sensitive skins. We’re partial to a bit of threading so if we can get that done after we’ve picked up the weekly shop, we think it’s a great idea!
