Outspoken Beauty

One of the things I'm going to be doing this month is giving you amazing gift ideas whilst championing small, independent, female-led beauty brands. Many of these brands are SO good but don't have the marketing budgets to spread the word so I'm going to help them do it!
In this episode I welcome back the wonderful makeup artist and brand founder, Donna May. If you love red lips and high quality beauty and lifestyle products at incredible prices then you are going to be obsessed with her beautiful brand Donna May London!

The brilliant Dr Anisha Patel @doctorsgetcancertoo returns to talk us through all the things we want to know about our gynaecological health but are perhaps not comfortable to ask. We'll talk you through the five different types of gynae cancer, symptoms to look out for and we'll also talk more broadly about our intimate health.
Outspoken Health is all about being BS free and giving the RIGHT information. It's not about scare-mongering. It's about spreading the word about women's health, because it's high time that we started taking it seriously!!

My guest this week has presented everything from Blue Peter to Top of The Pops to The Perfect Housewife. It's broadcaster and entrepreneur Anthea Turner.
Anthea and I talk about the current crazy cost of living and during the episode she gives some useful tips about how to save money. Anthea also delves into why having a tidy house is so important for her mental health and reflects on the pressure to look a certain way as a woman in showbiz. The conversation also leads to a chat about the colonoscopy she had for a documentary and why eating clean is important to her.
I really enjoyed how many unexpected directions this chat took and appreciated Anthea's honesty and excellent advice. It's a great episode.

Perdi Nouril is the Beauty Editor at Women's Health UK and joins me every Friday for an outspoken, BS and misinformation free delve into beauty, wellbeing and the beauty industry.
This week we're talking about hair loss which is something that I know affects so many of us whether it's linked to our health, hormones, stress or just natural shedding.
In this episode we go through all of your options if you are noticing that you're losing hair. We also talk about the totally natural hair shedding that takes place after the summer (in other words, if you're losing more than usual right now it could be because it's Autumn.
This is a fascinating episode and I also think will be incredibly useful if this is something that you're experiencing.

The Outspoken Review is back and I have three exceptional fragrances to tell you about.
There's also skincare that I absolutely swear by, my top makeup of the moment and I want to talk to you about something really important to do with the podcast.
