Ice Tone Gel vs Active Rub Gel: What's Right for You? ❄️🔥

Both of these gels are designed to soothe and refresh, but they target different needs. Here’s how to choose the right one for you:

💧 Ice Tone Gel – If you're dealing with tired, aching legs or areas of loose skin, this gel is your cooling solution. Infused with Menthol and Peppermint, it provides an instant icy effect that helps reduce discomfort and heaviness. It's ideal for those who stand for long periods or need a refreshing boost after a long day. The firming sensation makes it perfect for areas like the thighs, triceps, and abdomen.

🔥 Active Rub Gel – If you're struggling with muscle tightness or localised stress, Active Rub Gel works wonders. Featuring a blend of Clove, Thyme, and Black Pepper essential oils, it gently warms and eases tension in areas of repetitive motion. It’s perfect for anyone who needs quick, on-the-go relief from physical stress, providing targeted comfort for areas like the back, shoulders, or legs.
This is the one you want if you’ve been hitting the gym too hard this January!

Both gels absorb quickly, are easy to apply, and offer fast relief – just with different benefits to target your specific needs. 💪

Which one will you choose to soothe and refresh your skin today? ✨

January can be a challenging month — and we know many people are feeling the pinch right now. 💛

At Eve Taylor London, we’ve always believed that effective, professional-quality skincare shouldn’t be out of reach. As a family-run, independent business, we don’t answer to shareholders or rely on expensive marketing campaigns.

Instead, we focus on what really matters:
✨ High-quality ingredients
✨ Honest formulations
✨ Fair, accessible pricing

By keeping our business lean and thoughtful, we’re able to keep prices low without compromising on quality — because everyone deserves skincare that works, and doesn’t cost the earth.

Thoughtful skincare. Fair prices. Always.

Meet younger me 🥰

A few years ago I joined a webinar about the way we speak to ourselves, and something really stayed with me.

When you catch yourself slipping into negative self talk, imagine saying those words to a younger version of you. Better yet, say them to a photo of yourself as a child. It suddenly feels uncomfortable and even unkind.

So why do we think it’s okay to speak that way to ourselves now?

Next time you feel like being hard on yourself, try looking at a childhood photo instead. Notice how your words change.

Just a little food for thought.

What is a Brain Dump?

How many of you get into bed and suddenly your mind switches on?

Thoughts start whirling. Things you need to add to your to do list, replaying moments from the day, remembering something someone did years ago that still still bothers you, or looping thoughts about stress, anger, or worry.

Something that really helps me is what I call a brain dump.

I open the notes section on my phone and just start typing. At first, I might not even know what to write, but you’d be surprised what comes out once you begin. I type fast, without editing. It doesn’t have to make sense. The spelling doesn’t matter. No one else will ever see it.

I do this for as long as I need. Sometimes it’s one minute, sometimes it’s twenty. Then I press delete.

I also keep a separate note where I brain dump anything I need to remember or add to my to do list. The next day, I organise it properly into my diary or to do list.

Once I’m finished, I place one hand on my belly and one hand on my chest and simply sit with whatever I’ve released.

For me, there is nothing to be gained from ruminating at bedtime. I can’t think my way out of it. I need to get it out.

Take from this whatever feels helpful. I share this with many of you after your treatments, and I thought it might help others too.

Lost at diesel roulette today and broke down just off the bypass into Cortonwood 🙈
Wearing pink velour pyjamas (the most distressing part 😅) fluffy socks and Crocs. I could literally see the petrol station.

I immediately recognised two things:
1. This could have been prevented
2. I was the only one responsible

Nothing would be gained by stressing or beating myself up, so I didn’t. I asked what I could do in that moment, did it and let go of the rest. I was safe and not in the way of other cars, so I leaned into 2.5 hours of alone time and read my book.

I’ve learnt from the situation (hopefully) 🫣 and came away with gratitude for the people who helped.

I felt proud for staying calm in a situation where I normally wouldn’t. Sometimes acceptance really is the kindest option for ourselves, our mind and nervous system 💗

I’l definitely be tuning in. Anyone else?

It’s easy to look back on the year and compare it to how everyone else’s year looks on social media. Don’t do that to yourself - it’s hardly ever a true reflection of reality. We usually only post the highlights ✨

If 2025 has felt heavy or hard - you made it through.

⏰ As 2025 comes to a close I just wanted to thank everyone who has supported my business this year 🫶🏻

Likes, comments, shares, recommendations, voucher sales, and visiting for treatments 💆‍♀️

Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you I only ever have good things to say about my clients.

I look forward to seeing each and every one of you. I am incredibly lucky to do what I do and see the people I see 🙏

Without you all I wouldn’t be about to follow my dream and open my very own wellness space in Hoyland.

A space that’s not just a treatment room. Think community, group work, a safe space 🧘‍♀️

I honestly can’t wait to open and share it with you all - the ones who helped get me to this moment.

Here’s to 2026. May it be kind to us all ✨

(Sorry for the long post yet again. I’m sure they are mistaken for AI, but anyone who has followed me for a while knows I’m a waffler/oversharer 🙊)

How hard is it to choose a paint colour?? I feel like I’m paint blind, I’ve looked at that many. I am also the worst at decisions which doesn’t help

I’m wanting a neutral colour. Beige (ish) 🤷‍♀️not too yellow, not too grey, not too cool, not too warm… 🙈

Can anyone recommend anything? Bonus points for pictures

Thanks 🙏

💆‍♀️I take a lot of pride in what I do and I believe I create a thoughtful, bespoke experience when you are with me in the treatment room. I try to think of all the little things and I love how you all feel when leaving.

However, I want to be honest about something really important.

My communication and organisation haven’t been great lately, and I’m really sorry.

I receive a LOT of messages, which I’m genuinely so grateful for 🙏 staying on top my inbox can feel like I job in itself. When replies come in all at once, I can become overwhelmed and freeze, unsure of who to respond to first. ADHD definitely plays a part in this but I want to be clear, it’s not an excuse!

I’ve underestimated the juggle of everything behind the scenes. How long the shop renovation would take, the impact of temporarily working from home (especially when my husband and kids have to leave the house while I work), studying, and what it truly means to be fully booked midweek as well as most evenings and weekends. I’m incredibly grateful to always be fully booked, but I recognise it comes with responsibilities that I struggle to manage as well as I should.

On top of that, we’ve had three weeks of the kids taking it in turns to be unwell 🤒

Life feels busy at the moment (as it is for most people) but I also know that none of that should affect you as a client. And at times, it has.

I feel a lot of shame and guilt when I fall behind with my admin. Behind the scenes is the area where I fall short, and I take full responsibility. My clients deserve better, and I’m committed to recognising that and improving.

I’m so grateful for how kind, patient and understanding you always are 🙏 but I understand that it must be frustrating.

To help improve things, I’ll be returning to an online booking system from January, and it will be launching next week.

Hopefully this will make things smoother for you all and take some pressure off me too. I’ve also scheduled set times in the day to commit to staying on top of admin.

Thank you, genuinely, for sticking with me. I appreciate every single one of you 🫶🏻

Thank you if you got this far

Stacie ✨
