Weekend links #2

Weekend links #2

Another installment of what I’ve been reading and buying this week!

My shiny new Erin Condren Life Planner arrived to much whoops and other excitable noises. I started using her planners last year and absolutely love them! My life has never been so organised (or pretty, they have stickers and everything).

I splurged on Shopbop.com this week and bought this top from Madewell and these Kate Spade earrings. The latter because I’ve wanted them for like, ever and the t-shirt because I won a trip to Paris this week and I intend to wear this when I’m there! #omg

This week I was ecstatic to find that Emily is doing her ‘Letters to July’ series again. I was gripped by the series last year and when you watch them you’ll see why. Here is the link to the first one.

Indra Nooyi, CEO of PepsiCo made some candid comments in an interview this week about how women can not have it all when it comes to their career and having kids. Her words struck such a chord with me, especially when she said that our biological clock are career clock are in total conflict with each other. I don’t think a truer word has ever been spoken.

And speaking of motherhood, if any of you are mums to little boys and stuck for inspiration when it comes to activities, snacks and shopping ideas, check out my friend Louise’ great site www.mumofboys.co.uk. Her healthy chocolate mousse recipe is definitely worth bookmarking.

That’s it for this week! Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend 🙂

My favourite products that I use every day to keep my teeth healthy and bright: 

Sonic Toothbrush ✨ It has three speed settings so it’s brilliant for sensitive teeth 

Whitening Toothpaste ✨ (This comes free when you buy their Teeth Whitening Strips)

Teeth Whitening Powder Diamond Pap+ ✨ 
A genius product. You can use it with any toothpaste. 

Mouthwash for Whitening Teeth ✨ This is brilliant for breaking down stains while whitening your teeth

A night in the bed of dreams thanks to the @dermal A night in the bed of dreams thanks to the @dermalogicaire team ✨ 

Their new Dynamic Skin Retinol is an exciting launch as it’s suitable for entry-level users (using once a week) and experienced users (using several times a week). 

It contains a 3.5% retinoid complex, concentrated squalane and beta-glucan (an oat-derived humectant), so it’s powerful but hydrating and soothing at the same time 👏🏻 

They brought us to @westburydublin to celebrate the launch with the wonderful @louise_dermalogica (she’s patiently answered every nerdy skincare question I’ve ever put to her 😂) and honestly, I can’t believe it’s already over - so here’s a post to help me go back there for a moment.
A place on the grid for one of my all-time favouri A place on the grid for one of my all-time favourite sunscreens ☀️ 

@beautyofjoseon_official Relief Sun SPF50. It’s made with 30% rice extract so it’s super gentle and particularly great for sensitive skin. 

It’s lightweight, hydrating, not sticky and leaves no white cast on the skin (and it’s amazing under makeup). 

If you’re looking for a new sunscreen, try this. It’s absolutely brilliant 🙌🏻

If you’re ever struggling with a damaged skin ba If you’re ever struggling with a damaged skin barrier; everything from tight and irritated, to sore, scaly, dry and hot skin, use @drjart Ceramidin Facial Sheet Masks. 

I used one nearly every day when my skin was losing its mind over a new Vitamin A product, and it gave me so much relief and rapidly sped up the healing process. 

I can’t recommend them enough 🙌🏻
