Send us Fan Mail This week’s episode is a little different — it’s raw, real, and straight from the heart. I’ve been feeling super overwhelmed lately, so I took a couple of days away from social media to just breathe and reset. Being self-employed means constantly wearing a thousand hats — business owner, mum, friend, partner, cleaner, accountant, content creator… it’s a lot . In this episode, I ta...

Send us Fan Mail Today I’m clearing up the “gel polish is banned” headlines. Spoiler: it isn’t — the EU has banned one ingredient (TPO) in cosmetics from 1 Sept 2025 , and brands are already reformulating. In the UK, a similar move is expected in due course (industry guidance currently points to around 2027 ), so we’ll transition sensibly — no drama needed. I’m sharing simple client talking points...

Send us Fan Mail In today’s episode, I’m spilling the tea on why influencer marketing flops for so many beauty business owners — and how to actually make it work .
