    I'm really surprised by the bad reviews of JRB on here, I've only tried a few products but have been really pleasantly surprised by them. I bought the Miracle Balm in a few colours as I was really impressed with the consistency and results after trying the Au Naturel shade - they live skin dewy and glowing - perfect if you're more into 'no make up, make up' which is what Bobbi Brown is all about. I'd love for them to bring out a cream concealer, as I'm not super sold on the face pencil as I prefer a little heavier coverage. The packaging is nice quality, I like the minimalist branding too.

    An affordable skincare brand with products that ACTUALLY do their job. I love the SA Cleanser and Smoothing Cream - skin feels so so soft afterwards, I use it all over. The hydrating facial cleanser is also great too, I like to use this on holiday when my skin is dry from the sun and heat. The branding is meh, but who cares when the products work that well.

    I bought the Topicals Like Butter moisturizer when I had a flare up of eczema whilst on holiday. It's super soft, and really hydrating. After a few weeks it helped calm a lot of dry skin on my face. I also love using this on a flight to keep skin super hydrated. It’s Black Owned too and we stan ✌🏼 As a side note, I LOVE that they use a really diverse mix of models on their site, and people with genuine skin concerns.

    Never thought I'd review a sponge but here we are. 10/10 no notes. Looks cute, does the job, what's not to love.

    A life saver during lockdown. For someone who doesn't enjoy exercising and wants the least effort possible - having this at home is ideal. Yes the price-point is high, but the quality of rides and instructors is brilliant, the app also offers yoga, breath work, pilates amongst others which again is brill if you don't enjoy physically going to classes.

    I've tried everything from the Ultra Facial Cream, the Midnight Recovery Oil, Creme de Corps, Daily UV Sunscreen. I didn't think much to the anti-ageing products, I think there's better medical grade options on the market, but for mid-range price point they're products that are great if you're looking for entry-level into skincare. I would repurchase the Creme de Corps, as it's very hydrating but without an overpowering fragrance.

    The OG DTC brand. Bought my boyfriend the Geoff McFetridge collab and would definitely cop the new collection too. Great silhouettes and quality at respectable prices. Love that they collaborate with interesting artists too and not just influencers.

    I recently stayed at the MUJI hotel in Tokyo, which is attached to the flagship store in Ginza. The interiors were everything you'd expect and more, super sleek, minimal with traditional Japanese design cues; Tatami mats, etc. The room was kitted out with incredible design books that I could've poured over for hours. A selection of MUJI toiletries and snacks were complimentary with the room which was a nice touch and great place to try and test new products. Would highly recommend staying a night or two if you find yourself in Tokyo.

    Ordered the Small Regenerative Farm Box when I was in LA, I loved the branding and art direction created by the team at Chandelier (whose Founder owns Flamingo Estate), everything was such great quality and packaged so beautifully. It also came with a beautiful FE newspaper that had really beautiful photography and editorials. The attention to detail was just impeccable and worth the money. Desperate to try some of their bath and body products too, the Sage candle also smells absolutely incredible too. When I move back I'll be subscribing for sure - might even go as far as to apply for a job there!

    Bought some basics for a photoshoot - the product is great and the quality felt really good too. I didn't leave five stars, purely because there's no sustainability focus which for a brand this big and relatively new, there's no excuse really.
