The Simple Advisory Board has been created by Simple, to provide holistic lifestyle advice and education on all factors affecting skin health; diet, fitness, state of mind and skincare.
With 50 years heritage in caring for even the most sensitive skin, Simple is keen to provide you with support on all of the factors surrounding skin health and therefore has developed the world’s first advisory board on skincare and lifestyle.
The skin is the largest organ in the body and it is the window on your inner health and well-being.
The Simple Advisory Board consists of 4 experts in their respective fields (diet, fitness, psychology and skincare) working together to provide holistic lifestyle advice and education to all Simple members.
Caroline Frazer – Simple Skincare Expert & Celebrity Make-up Artist
Caroline Frazer has been working with Simple for the past five years and now joins the Simple Advisory Board as the Skincare Expert.
Caroline knows and sees first hand the impact of a good skincare routine on skin health – not only helping keep it clear and healthy but improving the tone, texture and helping fight the signs of ageing.
Healthy skin is crucial for providing the right canvas for applying make-up to enhance the natural beauty of a client or model, helping them look and feel at their best.
Caroline first developed her passion for skincare when she had her own beauty salon, working as a fully qualified Beauty Therapist. Now one of the UK’s leading celebrity make-up artists with 15 years experience, her client list extends from public figures such as Tony Blair to super models like Jodie Kidd for fashion and beauty shoots.
Caroline has also worked on films, advertising campaigns and more than 150 fashion shows in London, Paris, Milan and New York. She also regularly appears on This Morning as a beauty expert for their makeover features.

Dr. Christine Bundy - Simple Psychologist
Dr. Christine Bundy joins the Simple Advisory Board as the Simple Psychologist.
The impact that our state of mind and mental health has on our bodies is well documented – living with stress is a part of modern life, but it does take a toll on both physical appearance and skin condition.
Likewise, for those with poor skin health the psychological impact can be significant, such as a loss of confidence or even depression.
Dr. Chris is particularly concerned with the psychological effects of long term conditions such as diabetes and psoriasis. Diabetes is a fast growing condition of the 21st Century and can create significant skin health disorders, including thickened skin and pigmentation discolouration.
Dr. Chris is currently researching the role of beliefs about psoriasis, depression and glucose control for diabetes, to understand how to enhance motivation and help self-management of these conditions. She has recently developed an internet-based psychological treatment programme for people with psoriasis which is in the test phase.
Dr. Chris is a senior lecturer in Psychology applied to Medicine and an Honorary Consultant Psychologist at the University of Manchester with over 20years experience in translational research, using the science of psychology to inform and improve research and care.
Julia Bishop - Simple Fitness Expert
Julia Bishop joins the Simple Advisory Board as the Simple Fitness Expert.
A good fitness or exercise regime is well understood as a necessary part of achieving a healthy lifestyle, but Julia firmly believes that it is about more than just maintaining a healthy weight.
Exercise results in the body releasing endorphins, which lifts our mood but also increases blood flow to all the vital organs - including our skin - and boosts our immune system. Having a healthy body is directly reflected in our skin giving a clear complexion as well as improved skin tone and condition.
Julia is the founder of Move Your Butt and Move Your Bump Personal Training. She is a highly experienced fitness professional and personally trains a mixture of celebrities and the general public, specialising in fat loss, core stability and post-natal exercise.
Her passion is to help clients achieve optimum health and fitness and regularly undertakes further study to ensure her clients receive the most up-to-date and effective techniques available.
Her own fitness interests include tennis, snowboarding and canyoning.

Fiona Hunter - Simple Nutritionist
Fiona Hunter joins the Simple Advisory Board as the Simple Nutritionist.
Fiona is a highly respected and experienced Nutritionist and Food Writer, beginning her career as a dietician in the NHS so is passionate about what goes into our bodies and the impact that this has on overall health.
Diet is the most important contributing factor to health – a balanced diet not only impacts our weight and internal organ function, but also our mental health, all of which are reflected in our skin condition. Poor diet can result in poor skin health, shown through dull, flaky skin, tiredness and dark circles under our eyes, as well break-outs of spots and inevitably weight gain.
With over 25 years experience in this field, Fiona is also a successful author, writer and broadcaster. Her commentary and work has appeared in national newspapers (Daily Telegraph and the Mail on Sunday), and in magazine features, using recipes and diet plans (BBC Good Food, Prima and Essentials.)
Fiona is also a monthly columnist for BBC Good Food and Health and Fitness magazines. She was named the Re-energise Health Professional of the Year in 2003.
