1 AURORA – Daisy Jones & The Six
It’s been a while since I’ve been hooked on an album like this; even more shocking as the band isn’t even real.
If you have lived under a rock this past month, Daisy Jones & The Six is an Amazon exclusive short series about a fictional 70s band, and their road to fame.
The series is, despite mixed reviews, very much addictive, yes I have binge-watched it, and that is largely due to this excellent original soundtrack.
Check out the tracks Regret Me and More Fun To Miss.

I can confirm that the hype is real. I am a MAC girl through and through, and when this came out earlier this year, I immediately integrated it into my skincare routine. I am now nearly at the bottom of my first bottle, and I can see the effect it has on my skin; my skin feels smoother and looks more luminous. Often on off-duty days I wear this completely without makeup, just with my favourite moisturiser on top.
This was a lucky find during my last spa visit; it was sitting on a table in the waiting area of the spa, and I picked it up out of curiosity.
Essentially it is a lightly scented dusting powder, that makes skin feel smooth and nourished. I love to wear this under pieces of lingerie that are more strings than fabric, for a more comfortable wear.
4 Bum Bum Cream / Sol de Janeiro
It is exactly what you would guess it is from the name. On the tub it says “fast-absorbing body cream, helps tighten and smooth”. Plus, it smells absolutely divine. I’ve had the first tub for ages; now that I have stepped up my skincare I am nearly at the bottom of my second large tub, and my skin just feels glorious. Seriously, try it.
Issue 35 came out at the beginning of March. I’ve been reading this quarterly magazine for a couple of years now, and to me it is a moment of perfect stillness: imagine a comfy couch, a hot cup of tea, rain on the window, and the tactility of a real magazine full of real stories, experiences, and gorgeous photography.
That’s what this magazine represents to me, an afternoon well spent.
