What she’s listening to:
“I really like it when people say, ‘You should really listen to this’, or I’ve read a book and they talk about a podcast so I go and listen to it. I listen to the Ted Talks podcast, Adwoa Aboah’s The Gurls Talk Podcast and Glennon Doyle’s We Can Do Hard Things when I’m going on a walk, a hike or a run. I want to come away having learned something.”
What’s in her beauty kit:
“I’m loving 111Skin sheet masks (£20) and under eye masks (£65 for 8) – because I’m travelling loads on trains or in cars, I feel refreshed and hydrated after sitting there with one on. I’m also starting to experiment a lot more with make-up. Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Filter Foundation (£34) in 10 Neutral and Brow Fix (£19) are my go-to at the moment. I’ve just had my brows laminated so anything that helps me shape them is good.”
What she’s reading:
“Power Hour (£14.99) by Adrienne Herbert makes you look at all the stuff you can do if you reset and use your time wisely within an hour. I really enjoyed it – I like books that make me think about life in a certain way.”
What she’s eating:
“I looooove crisps. I can’t help myself. I don’t buy the little packs, I buy a big pack and can eat the whole lot. I love crisps from Eat Real (from £0.99) but the older I get, the more I tend to go for ready-salted crisps.”
