Plumping Lip Gloss, The Serum That Healed My Retinol Burn, Chief of War, Jacquemus Blazers, and The Best Monkfish Meal I Ate.
Good Morning! I’ve been so productive lately! I had a little blip where my travels exhauzted my body and then I burnt my face by using to much retinol while on planes and trains and general AC recycled air but luckily I fixed it, repairing my skin in 4 days. It feels good to be a grown up and know exactly what I need to be at my optimum. All repair products and other beauty updates after the paywall.
A chill travel week…
Wolverhampton → London for just one night yay!
My Muse this week is Dr Joann Fletcher — the Egyptologist who makes the ancient world feel alive with her mix of scholarship and storytelling. I love how she can talk about Cleopatra’s beauty rituals with the same intimacy as a friend gossiping about a queen. She reminds me that research and creativity can dance together — and I’m so excited to be interviewing her for our 39BC press launch In a few weeks!!!
Feeling - Super productive! Such basic things required for energy: nutrients, a good nights sleep and exercise. I’ve not been gym for four months so now I’m back on my exercise regime and just 3 sessions later see the results.
