0
SPEAKER_00
Welcome to The Skinny Confidential.
0
SPEAKER_00
Him and Her.
0
SPEAKER_02
I really am passionate about
0
SPEAKER_02
living like a blue zone, living a blue zone life, which includes if you want to have a margarita in the evening, have your margarita, have a glass of wine, or if you don t, don t.
0
SPEAKER_02
I think it s about we all just need to chill out and stop being so extreme and do this and if you do this, you know, TikTok and Instagram has become like that.
0
SPEAKER_02
So I think we all just need to just
0
SPEAKER_01
Give ourself a bit of permission We had such good response from your podcast people just fell in love with you But I m shocked.
0
SPEAKER_01
I don t feel like I got the essence of your beauty and wellness health diet routine because you have such a story that I felt like I wanted to save it for a separate episode and
0
SPEAKER_02
Well, thank you for saying that.
0
SPEAKER_02
I feel like you helped me out a lot on that podcast.
0
SPEAKER_02
So thank you.
0
SPEAKER_01
If you guys have not listened and you need more context of Bryony, go back and listen.
0
SPEAKER_01
So I think just to start this off, I m going to ask you what the weirdest shit you ve come across lately.
0
SPEAKER_01
when it comes to these categories?
0
SPEAKER_01
Like what s something so weird that you re doing right now?
0
SPEAKER_02
I had this crazy acupuncture facial the other day, which I posted.
0
SPEAKER_02
I had like a hundred needles in my face.
0
SPEAKER_02
That was pretty wild for me, considering I m scared of needles.
0
SPEAKER_02
But I m seeing this salmon semen everywhere, which I ve never tried.
0
SPEAKER_02
But I mean, I will seriously try anything.
0
SPEAKER_02
If you told me to like hit my head on that wall and it would make me look
0
SPEAKER_02
A year younger, I d try it.
0
SPEAKER_01
I m the same way.
0
SPEAKER_01
I m like, if Taylor s fecal matter is going to make my under eyes go away, put it on.
0
SPEAKER_01
Put it on.
0
SPEAKER_01
The salmon semen facial works.
0
SPEAKER_01
Really?
0
SPEAKER_01
Oh my God, it works.
0
SPEAKER_01
I think there s something in salmon semen that is really good for your skin combined with the microneedling.
0
SPEAKER_01
And I guess it s super popular in Korea.
0
SPEAKER_01
It s like not a big deal.
0
SPEAKER_01
But when I posted that I got a salmon semen facial, people were like, you ve lost the plot.
0
SPEAKER_02
No, I think that is just all what beauty is about.
0
SPEAKER_02
I mean, if anything, beauty wise that they re doing in Korea, they re just so incredibly advanced with it.
0
SPEAKER_02
I would try it.
0
SPEAKER_02
The one thing I actually think is
0
SPEAKER_02
game-changing for your skin is BBL and Moxie.
0
SPEAKER_02
Have you tried that?
0
SPEAKER_02
What s that?
0
SPEAKER_02
Tell us about that.
0
SPEAKER_02
So it is a combination of a laser and needling but it basically resurfaces your skin.
0
SPEAKER_02
You shed like a snake and it is so good.
0
SPEAKER_02
I had the worst acne scarring and pigmentation and it basically has all gone.
0
SPEAKER_01
For someone like you to say you had the worst acne is super interesting because you are so beautiful and if you look at your Instagram you re glowing and in person it s the same thing.
0
SPEAKER_01
Which is rare.
0
SPEAKER_01
You never know what you re going to get in person.
0
SPEAKER_01
Catfish.
0
SPEAKER_01
It s very much the same.
0
SPEAKER_00
Thank you.
0
SPEAKER_01
Did you really have so much acne?
0
SPEAKER_01
I ve heard you say that before.
0
SPEAKER_02
I promise you I had the worst acne and it affected me so much on a really deep level and confidence.
0
SPEAKER_02
I already was struggling with my confidence then I had acne.
0
SPEAKER_02
I remember I was working in I was a secretary and I obviously was client facing and I was covered in spots and the guy that worked in the post room actually he said to me he was like oh my god like he was he felt so bad for me he s like
0
SPEAKER_02
what happened to your face as if I had a reaction to something but it was just my acne and like things like that would happen all the time and obviously that was years ago and it still stays with you.
0
SPEAKER_02
So I really struggle with my skin and I went on Roaccutane twice and it didn t work for me.
0
SPEAKER_01
I think that... Which is called something else.
0
SPEAKER_01
It s called Accutane here.
0
SPEAKER_02
Accutane, yeah.
0
SPEAKER_01
I think that you experience then something similar to what I have, which is an identity crisis where you look in the mirror and you don t recognize yourself.
0
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, I mean, I would call in sick for work.
0
SPEAKER_02
I would honestly like in the morning, this sounds so dark, but I would dread getting out of bed and looking in the mirror.
0
SPEAKER_02
I would like dread touching my face because I was like, have I got a new spot today?
0
SPEAKER_02
which is like just a gross thought like it s so triggering to even like honestly I would I was living in this house share which I hated with two other girls and it was just a complete like chaos it was just awful and I would wake up and then have a new spot every day and I was just covered it was like cystic
0
SPEAKER_02
I think when looking back I was so stressed out and people at the time I remember people would say like you just have to fix what s going on inside and you know calm yourself down and it s stress-related I honestly wanted to punch them in the face I m like you don t understand I just have this I just have bad skin so I like became the girl that had bad skin but I honestly now and again you probably
0
SPEAKER_02
want to punch me in my face now, but I swear those people were right.
0
SPEAKER_02
You have to calm your nervous system down and do whatever you can to really just calm things down and your skin will start to clear.
0
SPEAKER_01
I think that we become addicted to a narrative of who we are, meaning you just said, I m the girl with bad skin, but when you flip that and you say, my skin s glowing, I love my skin, I m glowing from the inside out, and you start saying that to yourself,
0
SPEAKER_01
That is a big piece of the puzzle.
0
SPEAKER_02
It s so powerful and I think, I mean there s so many things that I did as well to my skin to help it, but actually I tried so many different things at the time, like topical things, Roaccutane, all these different things, but actually like you say, the one thing that helped the most was just de-stressing, daily habits, rituals,
0
SPEAKER_02
whether it was breath work, sound baths, meditation, just doing whatever I could to just have a moment to just reset, that really helped.
0
SPEAKER_02
I actually met Barbara Sturm.
0
SPEAKER_02
So she was a customer on my app.
0
SPEAKER_02
And this was so early on when I launched.
0
SPEAKER_02
I was shocked that she was using my app.
0
SPEAKER_02
She got in touch with me, her and her daughter were using the app.
0
SPEAKER_02
And then she said, let s go for breakfast.
0
SPEAKER_02
I m like, what the hell, Barbara Sturm?
0
SPEAKER_02
I m like, oh my God, I m like the girl with bad skin.
0
SPEAKER_02
Why the hell does Barbara Sturm want to go for breakfast with me?
0
SPEAKER_02
And anyway, I still had a little bit of bad skin at the time, but it wasn t and it was like I could hide it and it was under control.
0
SPEAKER_02
and I remember she just told me I needed to really strip back my skincare and I still use her gentle cleanser to this day like morning and night.
0
SPEAKER_02
I have the most simple basic routine and it has changed my skin.
0
SPEAKER_02
What s your routine?
0
SPEAKER_02
Okay, so I obviously use the Skinny Confidential Ice Roller every day, which I do actually think helps acne because it closes your pores.
0
SPEAKER_02
So I use a warm water, not hot.
0
SPEAKER_02
It has to be just warm.
0
SPEAKER_02
If you re using hot, I find that any areas of redness, like around my nose, it gets more red.
0
SPEAKER_02
So just warm in the morning to cleanse.
0
SPEAKER_02
And then I ll put my vitamins.
0
SPEAKER_02
So I use the Gentle Cleanser Barbara Stem.
0
SPEAKER_02
I have the Summer Fridays, the new eye serum, the jet lag.
0
SPEAKER_02
It s incredible.
0
SPEAKER_02
Love that.
0
SPEAKER_02
Incredible.
0
SPEAKER_02
Yeah, that s a good one.
0
SPEAKER_02
Really, really good.
0
SPEAKER_02
And then I will do the vitamin C serum from Summer Fridays.
0
SPEAKER_02
Okay.
1
SPEAKER_01
Then I ll go to the ice roller and I ll just like, my skin almost soaks up what I ve just done because I m like almost locking it down with the ice roller.
1
SPEAKER_01
Makes sense.
1
SPEAKER_01
And then I will use your new sun cream.
1
SPEAKER_01
I call it sun cream for the rest of your life.
1
SPEAKER_01
So cute.
1
SPEAKER_01
Then I use your sun cream and that is literally my routine and sometimes if I need a bit of extra hydration I will use a little bit of the jet lag mask which I really like under my makeup but I keep it it s literally that it s so easy that s that in the day and then at night time I will always double cleanse.
1
SPEAKER_01
Double cleansing.
1
SPEAKER_01
I promise you, you hear it and you re like, what difference is it going to make?
1
SPEAKER_01
It makes the world of difference.
1
SPEAKER_01
Also, you have to wash your pillowcase a lot.
1
SPEAKER_00
You have to wash your pillowcase a lot.
1
SPEAKER_00
Your sheets in general, but your pillowcase more.
1
SPEAKER_00
And also don t be washing your pillowcase with something that rhymes with schmide with chemicals all over your skin.
1
SPEAKER_00
Like wash your pillowcase with something that s unscented.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m a big fan of like Molly Suds or Branch Basics.
1
SPEAKER_00
Like it s got to be something that s not filled with shit.
1
SPEAKER_01
You re so good at that stuff.
1
SPEAKER_01
I still need to.
1
SPEAKER_01
I could be a bit cleaner on my like household products, I think.
1
SPEAKER_00
But you re also in London and there s different, I m sure there s different chemicals here than in London.
1
SPEAKER_00
Do you know what I mean?
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, totally.
1
SPEAKER_01
I think there s different, what s it called, restrictions and permissions and things.
1
SPEAKER_01
But yeah, so and then nighttime skin routine, double cleanse, eye serum.
1
SPEAKER_01
and like a hyaluronic or a jet lag mask and then sometimes I ll do, I have a gua sha that I ll use and I use your facial oil or I ll use the Summer Fridays one.
1
SPEAKER_01
Honestly, it sounds like a Summer Friday skinny confidential ad.
1
SPEAKER_01
It s not, I m just obsessed with both.
1
SPEAKER_01
I m so happy.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah genuinely it s completely changed my skin so those like really and I was the girl that was using tretinoin all these different acids doing all these things and just just my skin was like ah like stop calm down and then I just stripped everything back and it has made such a difference.
1
SPEAKER_00
I am getting eaten the fuck alive on TikTok right now.
1
SPEAKER_00
I kind of love it.
1
SPEAKER_00
It s like, why are people so mad?
1
SPEAKER_00
Like, how does something on TikTok?
1
SPEAKER_00
Because I said I don t like tretinoin.
1
SPEAKER_00
And I don t like it because I think it s way too harsh on the skin.
1
SPEAKER_00
I think it looks amazing.
1
SPEAKER_00
And it
1
SPEAKER_00
But I think over time and over years, you re thinning your skin and it looks waxy.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_00
And there s something subconsciously that makes someone look older.
1
SPEAKER_00
Because if you think about it, if it looks better, the longer you use it, that means you ve been using it for a long time, which signals to people that you re older.
1
SPEAKER_00
Does that make sense?
1
SPEAKER_00
Yes, I know what you mean.
1
SPEAKER_00
Fuck the TikTok, it don t matter.
1
SPEAKER_01
Also, if it is, it does definitely for sure thin your skin or at least it did when I was using it.
1
SPEAKER_01
And everyone s trying to have that youthful, plumpy skin.
1
SPEAKER_01
So I don t know.
1
SPEAKER_01
Maybe it works for some people.
1
SPEAKER_01
For me, it didn t.
1
SPEAKER_01
It was too strong on my skin.
1
SPEAKER_01
But at the time I was trying everything.
1
SPEAKER_00
And now you re going to get eaten alive with me.
1
SPEAKER_00
I know.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m right there with you.
1
SPEAKER_00
Listen, do what you want to do.
1
SPEAKER_00
No, man alone.
1
SPEAKER_00
I just don t want to put something on my skin that s thinning my skin every single day.
1
SPEAKER_01
I think, yeah, I mean, if it s working for you, great.
1
SPEAKER_01
It did not work for me.
1
SPEAKER_01
So, yeah, I would say a simple skincare routine.
1
SPEAKER_01
Obviously, I just said that I do the BBL Moxie.
1
SPEAKER_01
That is something obviously not simple, but it is incredible.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m going to try that.
1
SPEAKER_00
So I ll do that probably twice a year.
1
SPEAKER_00
Okay, I m going to try that.
1
SPEAKER_00
You have to tell me who you go to so I can... You look wild for a week.
1
SPEAKER_00
I don t care.
1
SPEAKER_00
I like shit where you look wild to get to the other side.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, I know what you mean.
1
SPEAKER_01
It s like almost the more wild you look, you re going to get better results.
1
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_01
But yeah, it s really good and your skin feels like sandpaper and you can see like for me, I have really had bad pigmentation so I could see almost like the pigmentation
1
SPEAKER_01
forming like little dead skin cells on the top of my skin.
1
SPEAKER_01
And then it was coming.
1
SPEAKER_01
Honestly, it s insane.
1
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
1
SPEAKER_01
I m going to try and find a picture of when my pigmentation was bad.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m going to try it.
1
SPEAKER_00
And also, I do have to say to bring it back to Korean skincare.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_00
My Korean facialist said in Korea, I could be wrong that they don t like no one either.
1
SPEAKER_00
And.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh, that s interesting.
1
SPEAKER_00
Everyone on TikTok.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
1
SPEAKER_00
Do a little bit of Pilates by Bryony meditation.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yes, for sure.
1
SPEAKER_00
Take a beat.
1
SPEAKER_01
Seriously.
1
SPEAKER_01
Take a breath.
1
SPEAKER_01
Honestly, it makes such a difference.
1
SPEAKER_01
I think we re all just running on this adrenaline and living on our phones and living under this like reactive state.
1
SPEAKER_01
And I think we need to do whatever we can either in the morning or throughout the day in the evening to just
1
SPEAKER_00
How do you reset what are some tools that you like let s all let me give you an example Say you ve had a jam-packed day like you have had today.
1
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, you re jet-lagged.
1
SPEAKER_00
You re tired What are you gonna go do to reset your nervous system?
1
SPEAKER_01
Okay, so to be completely honest with you tonight.
1
SPEAKER_00
Oh, you re gonna tell me I m
1
SPEAKER_01
No, I m going to go and have dinner with Sarah and Catherine and I m really looking forward to having a margarita.
1
SPEAKER_01
And that to me is also wellness.
1
SPEAKER_01
I really am passionate about
1
SPEAKER_01
living like a blue zone, living a blue zone life, which includes, you know, if you want to have a margarita in the evening, have your margarita, have a glass of wine.
1
SPEAKER_01
Or if you don t, don t.
1
SPEAKER_01
I don t.
1
SPEAKER_01
I think it s about we all just need to chill out and stop being so extreme and do this.
1
SPEAKER_01
And if you do this, you know, you re going to die.
1
SPEAKER_01
And it reminds me of that clip in Mean Girls, you know, when he s he s like, you will get pregnant.
1
SPEAKER_01
But TikTok and Instagram has become like that so I think we all just need to just give ourselves a bit of permission and yeah sometimes wellness looks like that.
1
SPEAKER_01
Being social I think you get so much from from just being around the people that really make you feel energized, good, winding down.
1
SPEAKER_01
Obviously I don t go and do that all the time but I m in LA and the girls are here with me so we re gonna
1
SPEAKER_01
go out.
1
SPEAKER_01
But at home, I love to cook.
1
SPEAKER_01
I love to cook.
1
SPEAKER_01
I love to set the scene.
1
SPEAKER_01
I have a Danish boyfriend who you ve met.
1
SPEAKER_01
He s very like particular with the home and lighting.
1
SPEAKER_00
The home is so gorgeous.
1
SPEAKER_00
It s one of the most beautiful homes I ve ever seen.
1
SPEAKER_00
You guys are so… I m serious.
1
SPEAKER_01
Thank you.
1
SPEAKER_01
That s so nice.
1
SPEAKER_01
But actually, I think we spoke about it that night.
1
SPEAKER_01
The lighting is like a real Danish thing.
1
SPEAKER_01
So he s very… I m going to butcher this, but it s like hygge.
1
SPEAKER_01
I think it s called.
1
SPEAKER_01
It s like coziness.
1
SPEAKER_01
And that s about lighting and ambiance and atmosphere.
1
SPEAKER_01
So I really like to create that in the home.
1
SPEAKER_01
I love incense, burn incense.
1
SPEAKER_01
There s a cosmos, Kate Moss.
1
SPEAKER_01
Have you heard of Kate Moss s company, Cosmos?
1
SPEAKER_01
No.
1
SPEAKER_01
Can you send me the link?
1
SPEAKER_01
Oh my God.
1
SPEAKER_01
So I never thought I would change my perfume.
1
SPEAKER_01
Her perfume, which is so random that I think this.
1
SPEAKER_01
I could use some perfume right now.
1
SPEAKER_01
It s insanely good.
1
SPEAKER_01
And then her incense is really good.
1
SPEAKER_01
So we like set the scene at home.
1
SPEAKER_01
We ll put like we re always playing jazz music at home.
1
SPEAKER_01
I find that so soothing.
1
SPEAKER_00
Sometimes I think like you and I are like related in a weird way.
1
SPEAKER_00
I know like if you re my like, no, there s a Frequency of it.
1
SPEAKER_00
I listen to jazz every single day.
1
SPEAKER_00
No way Oh my god, I wake my children up to jazz.
1
SPEAKER_00
I m gonna send you send me every single day I m also like into a Spanish guitar like anything that s like I
1
SPEAKER_01
but it has to like reflect where you are so if we re traveling like I love a little like Latino vibe if you re at home in London it s like
2
SPEAKER_00
a jazz kind of yeah so then cooking and just taking your time I think for me if I have if I have time to cook and I go and get all the you know it s just so soothing so I ll do that and we always like sit and have dinner together and we re not really big TV watchers we like talk we ll just talk about our day and that s really nice it s like a nice ritual that we have we also have a puppy now so I love doing
2
SPEAKER_00
um a dog walk at the end of the day.
2
SPEAKER_00
So good for your circadian rhythm.
2
SPEAKER_00
I swear having a dog I feel like that s a life hack getting a puppy.
2
SPEAKER_00
It s grounding.
2
SPEAKER_00
It is the most grounding like
2
SPEAKER_00
calming, I don t know, it makes you so present in the moment, you just don t think about your, I mean you probably feel the same with kids, they ground you, you feel like you see the world.
2
SPEAKER_00
It depends on the day and the mood.
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, sometimes they probably stress you, but I guess with kids, you look at the world through their eyes so pure, whereas, you know, I just think it brings that feel into the home, so I don t have kids yet, so my puppy is... It s pure.
2
SPEAKER_00
You re right, it s pure energy.
2
SPEAKER_00
It creates that pure energy.
2
SPEAKER_01
I love an Epsom salt bath.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay, I forgot you said that on the podcast.
2
SPEAKER_01
I need to buy that.
2
SPEAKER_01
Taking a bath though when you have kids is like... Impossible, probably.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s... I can t even explain it.
2
SPEAKER_01
I might have to wait a couple of years.
2
SPEAKER_01
Do you feel like you re opening like the local swimming pool?
2
SPEAKER_01
It s like you can t relax.
2
SPEAKER_00
You know what I mean?
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_00
But I got to try an Epsom salt bath.
2
SPEAKER_00
Oh, you will love it.
2
SPEAKER_00
A dry brush and then go in the Epsom salt bath for at least 20 minutes.
2
SPEAKER_01
You will be like... Can I give you the weirdest takeaway that Weston and I... You re going to die.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, tell me.
2
SPEAKER_01
Weston and I have the weirdest takeaway from dinner with you guys.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, tell me, I m so intrigued.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s like a really weird one.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay, so...
2
SPEAKER_01
You guys had us over to your stunningly beautiful, insane house.
2
SPEAKER_01
Like it s, the vibes were vibing.
2
SPEAKER_01
First of all, me and Weston are really particular about five senses and you guys hit all of our things.
2
SPEAKER_01
Like we have our five senses.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
And Weston is very, he has an eye for design.
2
SPEAKER_01
He designed my house.
2
SPEAKER_01
He s amazing.
2
SPEAKER_01
Anyway, after we went to your gorgeous house, we then went to dinner.
2
SPEAKER_01
And we both observed something separately because we are so detail-oriented and I have to ask you about it on air.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
I m nervous.
2
SPEAKER_01
We re sitting around this huge table.
2
SPEAKER_01
There s probably like 10 of us.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
So the way that your boyfriend drinks is so sexy.
2
SPEAKER_01
And let me explain it.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay.
2
SPEAKER_01
So he like, it s so different than the way Americans drink.
2
SPEAKER_00
Hear me out, this sounds so weird.
2
SPEAKER_00
He, honestly, he is going to be, this has like made his life.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s just this particular seamless way.
2
SPEAKER_01
He ordered a bottle of beautiful wine and he had everyone get a wine glass, even if they like kind of like weren t drinking wine.
2
SPEAKER_01
And then he would pour a little tiny bit in everyone s glass and he would sip it.
2
SPEAKER_01
And so we were all like sipping wine, whereas when you re in America, they give you a glass this big and you re like gobbling the goblet and everything is like so big.
2
SPEAKER_01
And then I would watch him and then he would just pour a little tiny bit more.
2
SPEAKER_01
And it was I m talking like a half an inch.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
And then we ordered a couple more bottles.
2
SPEAKER_01
But but there was 10 of us and we split these bottles and it almost was like he was drinking it like an aperitif.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
To as a cherry on top of the food as opposed to the way Americans drink where the drink is the main character.
2
SPEAKER_01
Is the centerpiece.
2
SPEAKER_00
Does that make sense or am I crazy?
2
SPEAKER_00
So he s so into wine.
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_00
He also is very, he s very into rituals.
2
SPEAKER_00
We have that in common.
2
SPEAKER_00
So he has four double espressos in the morning.
2
SPEAKER_00
I can t, how does he do that?
2
SPEAKER_00
And he could like sleep standing up straight afterwards.
2
SPEAKER_00
So he just makes, he has a really nice way of making everything
2
SPEAKER_00
that like simple day-to-day things.
2
SPEAKER_00
Romantic?
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, he like romanticizes life.
2
SPEAKER_00
So like he ll put the jazz on, he ll make his espresso, do all these things and it just becomes like such a ritual and then he does it with wine.
2
SPEAKER_00
He also does it with soy sauce.
2
SPEAKER_00
What the fuck are you talking about?
2
SPEAKER_00
What do you mean he does it with soy sauce?
2
SPEAKER_00
So also he has this, this is like a real like Casper fan club, but he
2
SPEAKER_00
he has these really like funny particular ways but he also has a way of getting the waiters on side maybe this is from his like background or whatever but he he does it in a way like if i was to do it
2
SPEAKER_00
It would be so rude and patronizing.
2
SPEAKER_00
He does it in this way where the waiters are so eager to please him.
2
SPEAKER_00
I don t know how he does it.
2
SPEAKER_00
So for example, we ll be going for sushi.
2
SPEAKER_00
They ll pour the soy sauce and he ll go, stop.
2
SPEAKER_00
He ll go, stop.
2
SPEAKER_00
And like, if I did that, that would be so rude.
2
SPEAKER_00
And then the waiters are like, they stop.
2
SPEAKER_00
And he s like, do you know why you do that?
2
SPEAKER_00
And he ll explain to them why you do everything you do.
2
SPEAKER_00
And then for the rest of like, if we go back to that restaurant, they would like never dare do more than what he s just said.
2
SPEAKER_01
I ll tell you what it is.
2
SPEAKER_00
I ve dissected it now.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s he s dainty about it.
2
SPEAKER_01
There s a daintiness.
2
SPEAKER_00
He s dainty.
2
SPEAKER_00
He s also not overindulgent.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yes, that s it.
2
SPEAKER_01
To me and Weston are like, both of us were like, did you watch the way he drink wine?
2
SPEAKER_00
It was like
2
SPEAKER_00
He s elegant with everything, whether it s like, for example, I know when I cook for us, like most guys, I could like throw the food on the plate and like, it would be like, keep it coming.
2
SPEAKER_00
Keep it going.
2
SPEAKER_00
Is there any more?
2
SPEAKER_00
Whereas he s like, you know, I know that he likes like, he s very visual.
2
SPEAKER_00
So he likes like a small plate.
2
SPEAKER_00
He s not like, otherwise it s overload.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s very sexy because he has tattoos and he s like kind of rugged.
2
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, great looking guy.
2
SPEAKER_01
And you would expect him to like get like an old fashioned with like a I don t know.
2
SPEAKER_01
And it was the way he was drinking wine was just chic.
2
SPEAKER_01
Anyway, I had to tell you that.
2
SPEAKER_01
It s a total compliment.
2
SPEAKER_01
Me and Watson were like obsessed dissecting every detail about it.
2
SPEAKER_00
I want to know your debrief and we need to talk about that.
2
SPEAKER_00
I feel like there s so much to uncover from the characters.
2
SPEAKER_01
Okay, so what are some beauty favorites makeup wise that you reach for all the time?
2
SPEAKER_01
The lip gloss, eyebrow, mascara.
2
SPEAKER_00
Okay, so Refi.
2
SPEAKER_00
Do you know Refi?
2
SPEAKER_00
Jess is one of my besties.
2
SPEAKER_00
I love her.
2
SPEAKER_00
She s done so well with that brand and it is incredible.
2
SPEAKER_00
So I use the Brow Tint, not the Brow Sculpt.
2
SPEAKER_00
So I think their Brow Sculpt is the most popular, but I prefer the Brow Tint.
2
SPEAKER_00
You would love with your coloring.
2
SPEAKER_00
So it is like perfect for us.
2
SPEAKER_00
I only use the lamination one in the pencil.
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, I know it does the lamination but it tints at the same time.
2
SPEAKER_00
Amazing.
2
SPEAKER_00
That s amazing.
2
SPEAKER_00
The pencil s amazing.
2
SPEAKER_00
The bronzer, cream bronzer, incredible.
2
SPEAKER_00
Really, really good.
2
SPEAKER_00
And then I have for my skin, I don t like foundation but I like a tinted serum.
2
SPEAKER_00
So I like the Ilia one.
2
SPEAKER_00
I don t know if you know that.
2
SPEAKER_00
I do.
2
SPEAKER_00
Or I just like your sun cream with a bit of concealer.
2
SPEAKER_00
So you re like, you re simple with your beauty.
2
SPEAKER_00
Simple, but I m very specific about there s a really good YSL skin tint that s incredible.
2
SPEAKER_00
It s like a serum.
2
SPEAKER_00
So I like like a real light base makeup by Mario Contour Stick.
2
SPEAKER_00
Can you send us all of these links so I can put them in the show notes?
2
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
2
SPEAKER_01
And are you a spray tan person?
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, yes.
2
SPEAKER_01
Oh, I
3
SPEAKER_00
I can tell you the spray tan maths.
3
SPEAKER_00
Go.
3
SPEAKER_00
Okay, so before you have a spray tan, the two nights before, you scrub your skin in the shower.
3
SPEAKER_00
Dry brush it.
3
SPEAKER_00
You dry brush before you go in the shower, and then you get in the shower, you do an exfoliation, a full body exfoliation.
3
SPEAKER_00
Casper s gonna be so embarrassed, but I do this on him as well, like we get in the shower together and scrub each other.
3
SPEAKER_00
I m like, should we do a scrub tonight?
3
SPEAKER_00
He s like, oh yeah.
3
SPEAKER_00
I thought you d never ask.
3
SPEAKER_00
Anyway, so we do the scrub.
3
SPEAKER_00
I cover my body in like a thick cream two nights in a row before the spray tan day.
3
SPEAKER_00
Then you wake up, shower with Barbara Stem V-Wash, which is actually for your vagina.
3
SPEAKER_00
But the pH is non-stripping of your skin, so it s neutral.
3
SPEAKER_00
So I m scrubbing my vagina wash all over my body?
3
SPEAKER_00
You re not scrubbing at this point, you ve done your scrub.
3
SPEAKER_00
So you re just washing?
3
SPEAKER_00
Then the day of the tan, you just wash your body with the V-Wash as your shower gel.
3
SPEAKER_00
This is before the tan?
3
SPEAKER_00
Before the tan.
3
SPEAKER_00
Then you get out of the shower, you don t use any moisturizer that day.
3
SPEAKER_00
never use any moisturizer.
3
SPEAKER_00
So then the spray tan, I have the most incredible spray tan person in London and she does Bondi Sands Express, which I love, and then three hours later I wash it off and you just feel like
3
SPEAKER_00
You ve gone on like a two-week holiday.
3
SPEAKER_01
You wash it off after three hours?
3
SPEAKER_01
Three hours.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s an Express Bondi Sands.
3
SPEAKER_00
I swear to you, the color is so nice.
3
SPEAKER_00
I have it on now.
3
SPEAKER_00
It is so natural.
3
SPEAKER_00
Okay, then, so when you re showering, you re using the V-Wash.
3
SPEAKER_00
Only the V-Wash.
3
SPEAKER_00
Don t use any other shower gel with scent, oil, nothing.
3
SPEAKER_00
Okay.
3
SPEAKER_00
You could also get any like feminine wash would work.
3
SPEAKER_00
Warm showers, not too hot.
3
SPEAKER_00
And there s this glove from Amazon, I m going to send it to you, you ll just be obsessed.
3
SPEAKER_00
And it basically, I would say, oh, and then you need the necessary body lotion, which is no fragrance, all of that stuff.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s so good.
3
SPEAKER_00
You use that every day.
3
SPEAKER_00
Then when it s starting to fade, you use this Amazon glove that s like two pounds and you don t get any patching.
3
SPEAKER_00
Two pounds?
3
SPEAKER_00
It weighs two pounds?
3
SPEAKER_00
No, it costs two pounds, which is like three dollars.
3
SPEAKER_01
I love it.
3
SPEAKER_01
My Australian friend imitates me and you just sounded like it.
3
SPEAKER_00
So that s how much it is.
3
SPEAKER_00
And you would just like use that in the shower.
3
SPEAKER_00
You have no downtime.
3
SPEAKER_00
You know, everyone s like you have to plan the downtime of the spray tan.
3
SPEAKER_00
This is like the hack.
3
SPEAKER_00
You won t have any downtime.
3
SPEAKER_00
You could use that once really quick.
3
SPEAKER_00
It will take it straight off and then you could reapply straight away if you wanted.
3
SPEAKER_01
So you re also using tanning stuff after the spray tan?
3
SPEAKER_00
No, this this helps you take it off.
3
SPEAKER_00
And if you wanted to start again, and if you re doing this, if you re doing the home version, if you re not spray tanning, the San Tropez Express mousse is the best color.
3
SPEAKER_00
You need to do like a whole blog post on this.
3
SPEAKER_00
And you can I did a TikTok on spray tan maths.
3
SPEAKER_00
I m going to give you a quiz right now.
3
SPEAKER_00
Okay, hit me.
3
SPEAKER_01
This is a real quiz.
3
SPEAKER_01
Oh, I love this.
3
SPEAKER_01
Do you get your nails done before or after a spray tan?
3
SPEAKER_01
And I m 100% on the answer.
3
SPEAKER_01
I know what you re gonna say.
3
SPEAKER_01
What?
3
SPEAKER_00
I know you re gonna say after.
3
100.
3
SPEAKER_00
No.
3
SPEAKER_00
Ooh, I don t agree.
3
SPEAKER_00
You re messing with the spray tan using the acetone.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, but I don t want my fingernail beds to be all spray tanned.
3
SPEAKER_01
No, they won t be.
3
SPEAKER_01
You put barrier cream on each nail.
3
SPEAKER_01
Barrier cream takes the shine off the manicure.
3
SPEAKER_01
Does it?
3
SPEAKER_01
I think it does.
3
SPEAKER_01
I get a Russian manicure and it s so shiny and when I put that fucking barrier cream on my nails.
3
SPEAKER_01
But what would you rather?
3
SPEAKER_00
A less shiny nail or patchy acetone fake tan?
3
SPEAKER_00
You know what I mean?
3
SPEAKER_01
I wash my hands right after the spray tan.
3
SPEAKER_01
because I don t like spray tan on my hands.
3
SPEAKER_00
Oh, I m the opposite.
3
SPEAKER_00
I do double spray tan on my hands.
3
SPEAKER_00
Why?
3
SPEAKER_00
Because I love a tanned hand.
3
SPEAKER_00
Huh?
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
I think you should try my way and I should try your way and then we can debrief.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yes.
3
SPEAKER_01
Because one thing I hate is when people put oil lotion on my fingernails after I get a manicure because the shiniest they ll ever be
3
SPEAKER_01
is when they re untouched.
3
SPEAKER_01
Okay I m gonna next time I m gonna do this.
3
SPEAKER_01
Can you tell me what your assessment is?
3
SPEAKER_01
Yes I will.
3
SPEAKER_01
I think about this like every day so could you let me know?
3
SPEAKER_00
And I swear like before I found out this is like such a silly thing but having a spray tan I just think
3
SPEAKER_00
I mean, look, I love going in.
3
SPEAKER_00
I love going in the sun.
3
SPEAKER_00
It feels good on your body.
3
SPEAKER_00
It feels nice.
3
SPEAKER_00
But you are aging yourself.
3
SPEAKER_00
You know what I do?
3
SPEAKER_00
Every minute you re in the sun, you re aging.
3
SPEAKER_01
My phone, when you pop it up, has the UV.
3
SPEAKER_01
I changed it to have the UV.
3
SPEAKER_01
And the UV right now is one, which is great.
3
SPEAKER_01
That means you can go outside.
3
SPEAKER_01
So in the morning, you look at the UV and you find when it s zero.
3
SPEAKER_01
So I go sit in the sun when it s zero.
3
SPEAKER_01
So you re still getting that sunlight.
3
SPEAKER_01
I m getting my sunlight but the UV is zero.
3
SPEAKER_00
Oh.
3
SPEAKER_01
But it s nice to have it on the home screen of your phone.
3
SPEAKER_01
So you can just quickly, yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
Saving lives.
3
SPEAKER_01
I love that.
3
SPEAKER_01
That s a good tip.
3
SPEAKER_01
How do you think about fashion?
3
SPEAKER_01
You re very stylish.
3
SPEAKER_01
What are things that you sort of gravitate to when it comes to your fashion and style?
3
SPEAKER_00
So, lately I ve really been focusing on like more timeless pieces.
3
SPEAKER_00
I think simple is actually better.
3
SPEAKER_00
If you can stay like staple pieces, I love a good pair of jeans, a good blazer, t-shirts.
3
SPEAKER_00
I m not so fussy with my style.
3
SPEAKER_00
I like simple, comfortable,
3
SPEAKER_00
cool not too elegant where it s like too you know could be maybe I don t know I think I like simple cool but with a classic kind of twist.
3
SPEAKER_00
Give us an example.
3
SPEAKER_00
I think it s nice having a bit of a uniform so a blazer a double-breasted blazer I love I think is so flattering.
3
SPEAKER_01
What s a good brand you re wearing one right now?
3
SPEAKER_00
So I m wearing Saint Laurent right now.
3
SPEAKER_00
You wear Saint Laurent a lot.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yes.
3
SPEAKER_00
I like Saint Laurent too.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s a good one.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s really nice.
3
SPEAKER_00
And I think another brand, I don t know if you have it here, but it s on matches.
3
SPEAKER_00
It s called Ray.
3
SPEAKER_00
That s really good.
3
SPEAKER_00
Ray.
3
SPEAKER_00
R-A-E-Y.
3
SPEAKER_00
And I have another blazer similar to this from Ray, which is probably like a quarter of the price.
3
SPEAKER_00
I also think a good high street version of
3
SPEAKER_00
Saint Laurent pieces like dupes is Massimo Dutti I think it s really good.
3
SPEAKER_01
I don t know what that is either.
3
SPEAKER_01
See I knew you would have good style tips.
3
SPEAKER_01
What about the jeans you re wearing really cute jeans.
3
SPEAKER_01
They re also Saint Laurent.
3
SPEAKER_01
I copied you on those jeans when you came in the studio.
3
SPEAKER_00
I bought the jeans.
3
SPEAKER_00
So I think they do a really good fit.
3
SPEAKER_00
If there was one brand that I could buy it would be and like I am actually I do loads of wardrobe detoxes.
3
SPEAKER_00
Okay.
3
SPEAKER_00
because just like a space thing we live in London there s not that much space I think I love to like declutter and the things that I m getting rid of and again this is a I completely understand that this is a luxury to be able to buy investment pieces but for me it was that the things that I was getting rid of was
3
SPEAKER_00
the more kind of fast fashion high street pieces because maybe they were worn or whatever.
3
SPEAKER_00
So I ve been trying to buy less but buy better.
3
SPEAKER_01
A hundred percent on the same frequency as you with that.
3
SPEAKER_01
I think that it s way better to invest in a beautiful blazer that you can wear a hundred times that s a classic than something that is fast fashion.
3
SPEAKER_01
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_01
Your eye knows the trends, so the trends can make it look dated, whereas if you get something classic, you don t have to worry about it.
3
SPEAKER_01
Are you into a good tailor?
3
SPEAKER_00
Oh yeah, I love tailoring.
3
SPEAKER_00
So do I. And I think if you, that s another good tip, if you re buying like a, for example, a Zara blazer, buy
3
SPEAKER_00
the biggest size but go and get it tailored maybe like cinched in at the waist or I love a long or super long sleeve so I like to get a larger size and then get like a tiny bit of tailoring and it just makes it look much more premium.
3
SPEAKER_00
Great tip.
3
SPEAKER_00
Yeah.
3
SPEAKER_00
Before you go leave our audience with like a projectile of wellness tips like give us just if you
4
SPEAKER_00
you were to just like do a monologue on wellness.
4
SPEAKER_00
Give us all the wellness-y things that you just love that you think work and you can just be as random as possible.
4
SPEAKER_01
Okay, so I ve recently, we were just talking about this, I ve recently been following a macro-focused
4
SPEAKER_01
nutrition plan.
4
SPEAKER_01
I say focus because I don t measure my food.
4
SPEAKER_01
I will never do that.
4
SPEAKER_01
I refuse to do that.
4
SPEAKER_01
So I have a rough idea of my macros and I ve been eating like that.
4
SPEAKER_01
I love to trial things and but to trial them for a long time and see if it makes a difference like two months or something, you know, and honestly, I promise you I m eating more than ever before.
4
SPEAKER_01
and I m losing weight.
4
SPEAKER_01
I feel energized.
4
SPEAKER_01
I feel like I m really enjoying food.
4
SPEAKER_01
I m de-bloated.
4
SPEAKER_01
If you re starving yourself, you will notice that your body is like clinging on to stuff.
4
SPEAKER_01
I m really seeing food as fuel.
4
SPEAKER_01
I m eating sourdough every morning, I m eating rice, I m eating potatoes, carbs, fats, proteins at every meal.
4
SPEAKER_01
So really focusing on that.
4
SPEAKER_01
Creatine is incredible.
4
SPEAKER_01
I know you love creatine as well.
4
SPEAKER_01
I think supplementing Pilates with weight training.
4
SPEAKER_01
So I do one to two strength sessions a week.
4
SPEAKER_01
We also have strength
4
SPEAKER_01
sessions on the app which I love because I like to create a one-stop shop so I just want to make it easy so I just do that and what other wellness tips do I love?
4
SPEAKER_01
I would just say, oh I love the tip that Michael gave me of GABA, apigenin and magnesium.
4
SPEAKER_00
He ll love to hear that.
4
SPEAKER_00
I ll tell him that we talked about it in this episode and he ll listen.
4
SPEAKER_01
On that subject, matcha because he said L-theanine.
4
SPEAKER_01
I don t take L-theanine because I drink so much matcha which has so much L-theanine in it.
4
SPEAKER_01
That has changed my skin as well.
4
SPEAKER_01
So those would be my
4
SPEAKER_01
my kind of top tips and also just something every day like in silence for yourself.
4
SPEAKER_00
The silence.
4
SPEAKER_00
Can we get better PR on silence?
4
SPEAKER_01
I know.
4
SPEAKER_01
It s so precious.
4
SPEAKER_01
Yes, I think if you can, you can just sit with yourself and do some sort of practice that involves you just being silent for like an extended period of time, it s going to really help you.
4
SPEAKER_00
I think that is a beautiful tip to end with.
4
SPEAKER_00
Can we do a code for the app?
4
SPEAKER_00
Yes, a hundred percent.
4
SPEAKER_01
So we will do, I m just making this up on the spot.
4
SPEAKER_01
Love it.
4
SPEAKER_01
We will do two months.
4
SPEAKER_01

4
SPEAKER_01
Where can they find the app?
4
SPEAKER_01

4
SPEAKER_01
