Well, what a weekend that was.

On Saturday morning I had my stall and met lots of really lovely people who stopped for a chat and a browse. I always enjoy those conversations and meeting new faces.

Then it was rugby in the afternoon, and what a game Scotland v France turned out to be. Proper edge-of-your-seat stuff. It was nearly topped by Italy later on too. What a Six Nations weekend.

Sunday started with celebrating International Women’s Day with my Longniddry swim buddies. The sea was a brisk 4°C so it was definitely a quick dip, and 10 minutes was quite enough!

Then choir practice in the evening to round the weekend off.

And now it’s Monday and I’m back to work feeling refreshed after my week off, which is always a good feeling.

How was your weekend? X

Friday started the right way today.

I went to my yoga class this morning and it was such a lovely, relaxed way to begin the day. A good stretch, a bit of calm breathing, and that feeling of slowing everything down before the day properly gets going. Sometimes that’s exactly what the body and mind need.

Now it’s back to real life, a bit of housework to get through and an order to drop off for someone later. Nothing glamorous, just a normal Friday ticking along.

But starting the day calmly definitely makes everything else feel easier.

How has your Friday started today?

And if you’re waiting on an Essens order or thinking about trying something, just send me a message and I’ll get you sorted. 💜

One of the products I mentioned yesterday was this cleanser that sits in my shower and has become one of those little staples I really rate. The Essens MHE Facial Cleanser is a simple swap that’s made a real difference to my skin.

I use it with the silicone brush and it gives that extra clean feeling without being harsh or stripping my skin. It gently lifts away makeup, daily grime and all the bits you don’t realise your skin holds onto, while still feeling really kind and balanced afterwards.

No tightness, no irritation, just clean, soft skin and a really easy routine that fits into everyday life.

It also happens to be on offer at the moment, so if it caught your eye yesterday, now’s a good time to grab it while there’s a bit of money off. X

If you've been eyeing up any of our skincare, then now is the time to get your hands on it while we have a sale on for International Womens Day.

The colostrum range has some amazing anti-aging products.
The MHE range is perfect for any age.

Which would be your pick? X

How often do you get the chance to get a new lip colour for under a fiver?!
You've got the chance to do just that with some of our lip butters or our lip glasses. Meanwhile a couple of our classy lipsticks are just £7 in the International Womens Day on until Friday.
Don't wait if something catches your eye though, as these will go quickly! 👄

Just as a little reminder of what I’ve talked about before.

When I shared that my blood tests showed I’m pre-diabetic and my cholesterol was creeping up slightly, it made me really reassess a few things.

Not dramatically.
Not obsessively.
Just consciously.

One of the biggest areas I started focusing on properly was my gut.

Because it’s not just about digestion.

Your gut affects how you absorb nutrients.
It influences energy levels.
It plays a big role in immune function.
And yes - it even shows up in your skin.

When I started being consistent with supporting my gut daily (alongside looking at my food choices and keeping movement realistic for my knees), that’s when I noticed the shift.

More stable energy.
Calmer skin.
Fewer flare-ups.
Feeling generally more balanced.

For me, this isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about long-term support.

Sometimes when things feel “off”, it’s not random.
It starts inside.

And that’s why I keep coming back to gut health.

Have you ever really paid attention to yours, or do you only think about it when something goes wrong? X

27/02/2026

I'm all set up and ready for a busy (hopefully) day at Makers & Merchants Markets in the plaza area outside Costa.

If you're out looking round the shops, why not pop by and say hello. I'm here until 6pm and I'll be back 9am - 6pm tomorrow too. X

✨ Colostrum Anti-Cellulite Cream Offer ✨

Until Friday, when you buy the refill pack for £27, you’ll receive the original 150ml bottle free (RRP £13).

This is the same Colostrum Anti-Cellulite Cream many of you already love - just in updated packaging.

Formulated with:
• Colostrum
• Argan oil
• Shea butter
• Ivy extract
• Caffeine
• Olivem (emulsifying complex)

It’s designed to help improve the appearance of skin texture, leaving skin feeling smoother, firmer and well hydrated.

Although originally marketed as a body cream for areas prone to the appearance of cellulite, lots of you tell me you enjoy using it on the face, neck and décolletage as part of your skincare routine too.

And with 150ml in each bottle, it’s considerably larger than many standard face creams - so it goes a long way.

If you’re ready to stock up or try it for yourself, now’s a great time while the offer’s running.

Message me before Friday if you’d like one set aside. X

ELASTIN – THE BIT NO ONE TALKS ABOUT

We all hear about collagen. But what about elastin?

Elastin is the protein that gives your skin its stretch and bounce. It’s what allows your skin to move, smile, crease, and then spring back into place.

Collagen gives structure.
Elastin gives flexibility.
You need both.

Elastin isn’t just about skin either. It plays a role in:
• Blood vessels – helping them stretch with each heartbeat.
• Lungs – allowing them to expand and recoil.
• Connective tissue – supporting flexibility in daily movement.

The thing is, from our mid-20s onwards, elastin production slows right down. And unlike collagen, elastin isn’t easily replaced once it’s damaged.

That’s when you start noticing:
• Skin feeling less firm.
• Less “bounce”.
• Fine lines not disappearing quite as quickly.

Sun exposure, stress, smoking and general ageing all contribute.

It’s not about chasing youth.
It’s about supporting your body properly as it changes.

That’s why I’m such a big believer in looking after skin from the inside as well as the outside. Structure and flexibility matter.

Have you ever actually thought about elastin before, or is it always collagen that gets the spotlight? X

After my post yesterday, I thought I'd give you some more information.
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body. It’s basically the structure that holds everything together - skin, joints, bones, tendons, even the connective tissue that keeps us moving comfortably.

When we’re younger, our bodies make plenty of it.
From our mid-20s onwards though, production gradually starts to decline. Not overnight. Not dramatically. Just slowly.

That’s when you might notice:
• Skin not feeling quite as firm.
• Fine lines becoming more visible.
• Joints feeling a little less forgiving.
• Recovery taking a bit longer.

That’s where a collagen supplement can be useful.
It doesn’t replace your body’s ability to make collagen - but it provides the building blocks (amino acids) your body uses to support its own production.

For me, it’s about supporting:
• Skin elasticity.
• Joint comfort.
• Overall structural support as we age.

Not chasing youth. Just looking after what I’ve got.
I always say - it’s about supporting your body from the inside out, especially as we move into our 40s and 50s and beyond.

If you’re curious about adding collagen into your routine, or you want to know the difference between collagen and elastin (because they’re not the same), message me and I’ll happily chat it through.

No pressure. Just proper information. X

21/02/2026

If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know I’m a big believer in supporting skin from the inside as well as the outside.

For me, that’s where Essens Elastir and Collagen 7000 mg with Vitamin C come in.

Collagen is all about supporting skin structure. As we age, natural collagen production slows down, which is when we start noticing fine lines and less firmness. Adding a high-strength collagen with vitamin C helps support that natural production process and overall skin condition.

Elastir focuses more on elasticity. That “bounce” and firmness we talk about? That’s elastin. Elastir contains elastin along with antioxidants like hesperidin and quercetin, plus biotin and niacin to help maintain healthy-looking skin.

I don’t see this as chasing youth. I see it as maintaining what we’ve got and looking after our skin properly.

They’re easy to add into your routine, work well together, and support your skincare from within rather than just relying on what we put on top.

If you’d like to know how they work, prices, or whether they’d suit you, just message me COLLAGEN or ELASTIR and I’ll send the details over. X

This is just one of the ingredients in Essens V-Shot, and when you understand what it does, it makes so much sense why people are noticing those inches shifting and saying they just feel better in themselves.

Yerba mate isn’t just “another herbal extract.”

It’s a South American plant naturally rich in antioxidants and plant compounds, and yes, it contains caffeine - but here’s the thing…

I don’t drink coffee.
And I’ve actually cut down on caffeine.

What I like about this is that it doesn’t feel like a caffeine hit. It feels steady. Balanced. No jitters, no sudden spike and crash. Just a gentle lift that helps with focus and getting going in the morning.

Studies suggest it can:
• Support energy levels,
• Help with mental clarity,
• Aid weight management,
• Support healthy cholesterol levels,
• Help reduce inflammation.

For me, it’s about feeling good from the inside out - especially with everything I’ve been focusing on lately with my health.

Have you tried it yet? Or are you curious about what’s actually in it? 💜
