I figured 'now's a good a time as any to trial everything' - and we did. However, predictably there were some stand-alone winners. Face: When your teenage son says 'Mum where's that yellow face stuff?' Kids - Body: Full disclosure: Hampton Sun were one of my first clients. One day over lunch in NYC with the founders Grant and Sal (this is about as name-droppy as I get, stay tuned), I said 'I really LOVE using the 55 on the kids.
