You won’t want to hear this…

…but the truth is, good hair habits aren’t always the fun or glamorous ones. And while hair care is deeply personal, these are the things that have genuinely made the biggest difference for me and I honestly think they’ll help most of you too.

Some of these might feel familiar, but you might not know why they matter, so swipe through the carousel for the full breakdown and save it for later. If anything doesn’t make sense or you want a deeper dive, my DMs are open.

Shower filter
Hello Klean – the one that transformed my hair texture by tackling our charming London hard water. Let me know if you want to see my before and afters

Scalp massage oils & tools
Oils I love: Inde Wild Champi, Mauli Rituals Grow Strong Hair Oil, Reset Invigorating Hair & Scalp Oil
Tools: Nature’s Spell scalp massager + their Flexi Flow brush (a brilliant detangler after massage).

Handle with care
For gentle detangling day-to-day I use the Ziggy hairbrush which is fabulous, and a Wet Brush shower detangler to work conditioner through in the shower.

Moisturising treatments
• Pre-shampoo: Philip Kingsley Elasticizer. The GOAT. No take backs.
• Post-shampoo: FUL London Intensive Moisturising Mask
• Leave-in: Shea Moisture Manuka Honey spray

Heat protection
The non-negotiable step. I rotate between Color Wow Money Mist and GHD Heat Protect Spray – lightweight, effective, and they don’t overload my hair. For something a little thicker, the Olaplex No5 is great.

Everything I can link is in my LTK, so have a browse and let me know if you want a routine tailored to your hair type.

Am I officially an old grumpy cow?

As I edit this, I do feel like I’m slowly turning into my dad…

I’m awful for a chatty Interlude, but when 2/3 of the time is spent with inane gas bagging, especially when it’s full of regular listener inside jokes I just don’t understand, it makes me regret not getting Spotify set up before I started driving...

Can you relate? Or am I officially Karl from UP?

AD| I’m not trying to look younger. I’m trying to stay stronger for longer.

Over the last six months, @absolutecollagen has become part of how I support my body to keep up with real life. Training, working, parenting, travelling and everything in between.

The changes I’ve noticed haven’t been dramatic overnight results, but steady consistency. My nails are growing faster and feel noticeably stronger, something my nail technician has commented on more than once. My skin feels more resilient, more elastic, and it holds hydration better throughout the day.

What reassured me is that this isn’t guesswork. Absolute Collagen is backed by one of the largest randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials conducted on a collagen supplement, demonstrating improvements in skin elasticity alongside benefits for hair and nails

With 8000mg of type 1 marine collagen plus vitamin C to support absorption, it’s a simple daily step that fits easily into my routine. There are also 2 formats; the powder and the gel so you can integrate it into your life in a way that works for you.

For me, ageing powerfully means supporting strength, skin health and confidence so I can continue living at my optimum, regardless of age.

The perfect pair, and they’re on sale!

These are the most comfortable jeans I have ever purchased, and with @thisiswhistles you get such brilliant quality. Structured without feeling too tight and they have an elasticated waste so there’s stretch depending on the time of the month and food babies!

Thank you @stylewithwisdom for flagging that they have a sale right now, and these are in it!

I’m wearing a size 8 petite length. Styled with a gorgeous previous season jacket from @marksandspencerstyle my trusty @strathberry bag and classic @adidas spezials

Spring isn’t quite here yet… but you can feel it trying.

That first bit of sunshine. The air still cold but lighter somehow. The point where you start thinking about popping coats back in the wardrobe and rotating the lighter layers in again.

This lip combo has become my perfect spring lip.

If you’re also ready for softer makeup and brighter days, watch the video and tell me what you think.

Patrick Ta might have just changed my concealer standards.

I put this to a proper test. Full day in London. School drop off. Work. Reformer. No powder. Just setting spray.

It didn’t crease.
It didn’t cling.
It didn’t settle into fine lines.

For midlife skin, that is not a small thing.

If you’re 35+ and finding your concealer suddenly behaves very differently to how it did at 25, you’re not imagining it. Skin changes. Texture changes. Hormones change. Makeup has to work harder.

This melts in and moves with the skin instead of sitting on top of it. By 3pm it still looked like skin.

Shade matching took a bit of detective work as it’s not on Findation yet. I used the online swatch card and matched it to my existing Patrick Ta foundation shade and it worked perfectly.

There’s also 20% off at Cult Beauty using code LAURAMCB if you’re tempted.

If you like honest makeup reviews tested on real skin, in real life, by a nearly 40 year old who will absolutely tell you if something creases, follow along.

What’s your current concealer doing by mid afternoon?

Hair growth update after 3.5 weeks using the CurrentBody LED Hair Growth Helmet and I honestly wasn’t expecting to notice a difference this quickly.

One of my biggest concerns recently has been increased hair shedding linked to stress, hormones and midlife hair changes. After consistent use, I’m seeing noticeably less shedding when washing and styling my hair, which for me is the first real sign something is working.

This device uses clinically backed LED light therapy designed to support scalp health, stimulate hair follicles and encourage stronger, thicker looking hair over time. Consistency really is key here. I’ve been using it regularly alongside my normal haircare routine and documenting progress as I go.

Still early days, but this is my real time update for anyone researching non invasive hair growth solutions or looking to support thinning hair and hair density at home.

Feeling like a full baddie.

This outfit was so out of my comfort zone, but I loved it. I cannot tell you how many compliments I got yesterday on this skirt.

If you’re into spring outfits, elevated occasionwear and chic everyday style, you need to check out the current @phaseeight collection because it is stunning, not least of all the beautiful blue coat from my stories. Absolutely stunning for transitional dressing as we head into Spring.

365 days a year.

Alongside the @decreeskincare light cleanse and @byoma Hydrating Serum, this is my most emptied product of all time.

Morning, evening, between skincare layers, when my skin is feeling dry, tight or sensitive, after microneedling and facial treatments… the list goes on. If you haven’t tried this yet, I honestly don’t know what you’re waiting for.

While the ingredients might not sound particularly unique… ceramides, glycerin and allantoin, for some reason this hydrating mist just works better than any other I’ve tried. Lightweight, fragrance-free, barrier-supporting and PERFECT for my sensitive skin and compromised skin barrier days.

While £19.50 feels steep for 144ml, I would (and have) absolutely pay that for it. But it’s always worth keeping an eye on @bootsuk and @superdrug as it’s sometimes on offer.

Have you tried this one? Comment link and I’ll send you where it’s the best price today (correct at time of posting).

Gone are the days of long lunches and last orders.

Now it’s a face mask, cuppa or bubbles , and a proper catch-up wherever we can fit it in.

Midlife is all about a constant juggling act between Work, Home, Parents and/or children, and hormones just doing the most. But in all that malarkey, it’s really important to grab time where you can to re-energise with friends and loved ones how you can. And an LED face mask doesn’t hurt.

If you’re tempted by the mask, EVAHALO gets you 10% off all @currentbody

January exhaustion check.

Am I the only one feeling flat, foggy and quite frankly, bone-tired right now?
This level of post-Christmas exhaustion feels… intense.

The run-up to Christmas is a lot. A LOT.

Not just the fun bits. The juggling. The planning. The parenting mental load, the school admin, end-of-term cluster f^ck, performances, parties, gifts, food, hosting, stepford family expectations, socialising, village parenting, pretending you’re fine when you’re actually running on fumes.

And then January arrives and we’re all supposed to snap straight back into productivity mode like none of that happened. Peak January burnout, honestly.

Has January also hit you harder than expected, or am I gaslighting myself?

Tell me in the comments: does this resonate, or is your January exhaustion showing up in a different way?

Also comment makeup and I’ll send you a list of what I’m using here. A few of my favourite everyday makeup products right now.

Which is better?

So I put the @narsissist Under Eye Brightener and @hudabeauty Faux Filter Colour Corrector to the test…..aaaand….i think they’re both better…

Here me out; I think without the @kosas concealer on top the Nars gives a better instant blurring, brightening effect BUT with concealer the Huda seems to smooth out by under eye and counteract my tear trough recession, giving a more youthful effect.

Have a watch of the 2 stages and tell me what you think?

This is such a great hack! I can’t believe I haven’t been doing this for longer!

I absolutely love this eye cream from Trinny London, but seeing it used a lip product is a true game changer. I like to seal in all that hydration with this beautiful barrier balm from The Outset.

Let me know what you think of this, is it a combo you’ve tried?

#LTKwinter #LTKuk #LTKbeauty

I have raved about this formula for years, and now it just got an update.

@drsamsskincare has just launched the Neutralising Gel in a rollerball applicator, and it’s a brilliant update for skin that needs calming over wider areas, not just the odd breakout.

I’ve trusted this formula for years because it supports the skin barrier without stripping, stinging or overwhelming already sensitised skin. Now the rollerball makes it easier to apply evenly across cheeks, jawline, neck or chest, which is where redness, inflammation and hormonal breakouts often show up as we age.

This is ideal if you’re dealing with reactive skin, perimenopausal changes, hormonal sensitivity, rosacea-prone skin or that unpredictable combination of dryness and breakouts that can appear in your 40s and beyond.

London called. This coat answered.

A classic wrap coat that actually comes in a petite length, which is a godsend if you’ve ever struggled to find a full-length coat that doesn’t swamp you if you’re under 5’4. I’ve been wanting a timeless camel coat for years and this delivered!

Easy to style, high quality and one of those throw-on pieces that instantly elevates a London winter outfit. It’s also 20% off right now, which never hurts.

💬 Comment COAT and I’ll DM you the link to the full outfit.

Clarins sent over their winter lip wardrobe and I wanted to show you exactly how the shades look on. This is a simple try on so you can see the colours, textures and finishes.

The lip oil balm in Cherry gives a juicy glossy finish that feels light.
The lip oil in Cherry has a softer tint with a smoother texture that works well for everyday.
The Lip Perfector Glow in pomegranate adds an intense Christmas red with a healthy sheen. Definitely my favourite!

All of these feel really comforting and perfect for day to night festive fun!

🎄 Silent night, sparkly lights… London feels festive, the de Brett house is officially decorated, and I became a year older.

We kicked things off with my talent roster at @reigatecreative , Christmas lunch hosted at @brownsvictoria. One of those lunches that reminds you why community really matters (scroll for content outtakes!).

I then slowed everything down with a wellness morning hosted by @curel_japanese_skincare . Yoga, nourishment and of course a little DMS action (IYKYK).

Then onto a beautiful lunch by @biossance where we got up close and personal with the Christmas gift set (all the hero’s in deluxe minis) and the new Azelaic Acid mask (my skin will love this!). Not to mention fan girling over @karenwilliamstylist and finally meeting @masha_solechnik in person!

There was also the @no7uk x @mystackers launch (use NO7STACKERS20 at the @bootsuk checkout for 20% off the edit), plus a wave of Christmas beauty gift sets. Two beautiful edits from @beautylab_london , and a reminder that spending £80 at @gatineau_skincare unlocks a free Plump, Smooth & Brighten set worth £153 for Cyber week!

I was gratefully sent quite a bit which is all exciting me:
- My forever favourite @Gatineau_skincare face fake tan in Medium Dark
- Essentials from Trinny London including my hero the Take back time Eye Cream
- New bits to try from @geekandgorgeous.uk @sunday and @indewild
-Some hero items from @mightypatchlb

And yes, I did shop Black Friday and Cyber Week too. @skinrocks @patricktabeauty @merit and @yslbeauty come to the front!

Finally your girl is now officially in the last year of her 30s and loving it! Blessed to age!

Make-up on repeat 💄✨

This is the edit I’ve been reaching for lately. My current everyday make-up routine.

Everything here works beautifully for a natural make-up look, but it also builds without feeling heavy. A glow-boosting base, dependable concealer, gentle warmth and lips that instantly elevate the whole thing. The kind of makeup you can do almost without thinking and still feel confident in.

Some days you want your skin to breathe, yet the blemishes have other plans…

This is how I keep things natural while still getting enough coverage to feel a bit more confident when my hormonal skin is trying to make me feel the opposite.

This really is about selecting the right products and technique. My recommendations are below but if you have products you already use and trust in, give those ago, but try and use this technique he can see if it works for you.

I’m using the Sculpted by Aimee Satin Silk Longwear Concealer and the Huda Beauty Easy Bake Duo in Pink Pumpkin.

Here’s what I need: Comfortable but elevated party dressing that works for dinners, school events, events out and every festive moment in between. Not to mention walking around London…

Leave it to me to finally answer your skincare requests… a few weeks late but armed with a good one!

You asked for a budget alternative to a certain very fancy youth-activating serum, and I’ve finally put the work in. I’m not giving anything away here, but if you love barrier support, glow, and clever K-beauty formulations, this video will make you very happy.

And honestly, K-beauty is where half the real skincare innovation happens — especially when you don’t want to remortgage your house for a serum.

✨ The last of the holiday magic (and a fortnight of beauty highlights) ✨

Out & About
Back from Tenerife, a little sun-kissed and very ready to get back into beauty mode. There’s something about that mix of sea air, SPF and endless rosé that resets everything.

Skincare
My suitcase skincare lineup came through for me in the Canarian heat — old favourites and a couple of new bangers. Let me know if you want to hear more!

Some gorgeous new arrivals have also landed on my desk this week:
– @trinnylondon Naked Ambition Serum; vitamin C and azelaic exosomes for glow.
– @tropicskincare Eye Lift – a gentle new eye balm in their exosome line.
– @biossance Squalane + Ectoin Overnight Repair – the texture already feels lush.

Makeup
– @hudabeauty Blush Blocks – the new shades are stunning; bright, blendable and perfect for that post-holiday glow. The packaging is giving Hype Williams and I’m here for it!
– @kaybykatrina has finally in the UK and exclusive to @spacenk and every brown girl is doing 👀
– @miicosmetics Cheek Veil Liquid Blush shades look autumn makeup ready and I can’t wait to play!
- Picked up @lisaeldridgemakeup Gloss Embrace Sequin gloss and it is SCREAMING Christmas!

Fragrance
– @armanibeauty Si Intense is one I spritzed immediately and died on the spot. Gorgeous

Two weeks, a suitcase full of sunshine, and some very exciting newness to come back to.
