    Oct 29 2024

    While many of us were stressing over sourdough starters, I spent my lockdown trying to perfect my pigment correction treatment - from first formulation thoughts to eventually launching my Yellow Peel mask (with many iterations along the way, I must add).

    The road to launching your own skincare products is fairly uncharted and is normally a long one with many bumps along the way. This episode is a look down this road, with my thoughts, tips and learnings on the tricky but truly exhilarating process.

  • Sinkers, Saggers & Surgery Shopping, with Olivia Falcon.
    Sep 10 2024

    When it comes to choosing your aesthetic treatment (surgical or non-surgical), it can feel a bit like Tinder; swiping left and right over highly edited images from a huge portfolio of 'expert' practitioners, to find your perfect match. But just as we know how disappointing your date so often is in real life, so too do you risk underwhelming and even downright-dangerous results by taking a non-expert approach to treatment choices.

    Enter Olivia Falcon, former beauty editor at Tatler, architect of the Tatler Cosmetic Surgery Guide and now the founder of The Editor's List. Think of it as your expert aesthetic concierge service. It takes the guesswork out of finding the safest hands and most skilled practitioners in the business.

    Today, Olivia is giving us her expert view on the changing face of the cosmetic industry, both in the UK and across the pond in the States. She'll discuss everything from trending treatments to risk factors, and why you should never treat cosmetic habits like your handbag habits - instead, think "less, but better". This episode is all about arming you with the knowledge to make savvy, sensible, and safe decisions for natural and effective results.
