Starting point is 00:00:00 Stage fight! Hi guys, welcome back to the Pottie Wadi Word. How I did you have a lovely week. Welcome back. How are you feeling Zossie? Alive. Thank you so much for all of the love for us being back. We've absolutely loved being back together.
Starting point is 00:00:20 And we got lots of love for our new logo, by the way. I know. Gosh and fancy a week. I do think it suits as well. I agree. I love. the bag and day. Sheek, cool, edgy, fabulous, beautiful, gorgeous, perfect. Girl. That's exactly. Sweet. Perfect girl.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Right, we've got lots to chat about today, but I feel like I've stressed because I've got too much to say. It's been far too long. Jess said actually annoys her how much she has to say. I annoy myself that I've got too much I want to share with you guys. That's, it's annoying. And it's annoying to listen back to the episode of your, no, I don't. No, I mean for us when it's like When I've got a lot to say We need to listen back I hate myself
Starting point is 00:01:05 Because I'm like stop fucking talking No one cares Nobody cares No we're in joking Right I want to just get something off I'm just got to get some off my chest Get it out there
Starting point is 00:01:15 It's got a lot on my plate this week What are Labibos Guys What is this nonsense That we're seeing online You simply don't like Those fluffy Scary Creeks
Starting point is 00:01:30 I think it's a tragedy. Do you agree? I don't know why anyone would buy them. Can we, can somebody messages and tell us, seriously, do you actually like them or are you just enjoying it because it's a thing? For me, it's like it's adults who are getting these things. Yeah. Adults are buying into these teddy bears, basically. And I'm all for a wee cuddlet top of your bed, right? I don't know, it's like to say you've literally got the whole flipping farm yard in top of your bed.
Starting point is 00:01:58 My children. but that's like a private like someone's got you one at a birthday or something it's cute, it's relatable to something you like right, that's nice no one needs to see it we're hanging these from our airmes bags why? And aren't they really expensive as well
Starting point is 00:02:14 I don't know, I'm not at the price. 40 quid! I don't know, maybe they're 20 not sure I saw someone post the other day that someone did pay 40 quid for it but I don't know if that's that they want a specific one or if that's the price of them.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Do you know what it's giving? Maybe when you were young and you used to collect Pokemon cards or football cards and you'd open them and you wanted the surprise element of it and it would be like, oh, swapsies. It's like that because it's a cult.
Starting point is 00:02:42 It's over consumerism, isn't it? Of wanting people to buy it because they want a certain colour way but then what do they do if they got another Labubia that they've already got? What do they do with that? I need to know what people are doing with them once we're over this. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:02:55 But equally, Fairfox, if you like it, that's cute. mean but it's the face it's that they're scary they're not cute but i also wanted to talk about something quickly because i'm actually contradicting myself here and i feel like i'm just i said something to the girls before we recorded and i said about blank street so basically for anyone that's not in glasgow blank street it's just opened here and i personally love blank street i first tried it in new york about three four years ago and i loved it i love matcher i'm a matri-girlie which people think is basic and whatever i love it you hate it but i feel like when something gets good or is popular people love to slag it and that is exactly what i'm just doing
Starting point is 00:03:40 about the boo-boo so am i the problem am i the drama no i can disagree more because blankstreet's actually producing good things i really like blank street like yeah you don't need to like it but it's still producing like a drink, something to eat, something to drink. It's a service. Lububoos, no one needs that. Yeah, okay. It's weird. Like that's a, it's a different compatible.
Starting point is 00:04:06 But then people are doing TikToks and they're slagging like the actual company and their ethos and what it's about. And we were just saying like we're all for support small businesses, whatever. But I guarantee those people that are saying that I get at McDonald's on the weekends and getting their fucking Starbucks fix. Like you can't, I don't get it. is what I'm trying to say. People do love to hate and I'm definitely one of those people a lot of times right
Starting point is 00:04:28 but I feel like it's for different reasons like Blank Street isn't annoying me because I can appreciate people like a good matcher yeah I think it's brilliant for Glasgow that we've got Blank Street okay? Yeah me too. It's great. Actually the only reason it would annoy me and I'm sure I said this is someone before
Starting point is 00:04:44 is that in a way it's a bit of a shame when good things come because it's part of going to London or go to Manchester when you got like Blank Street or what came before or even like Uniclo
Starting point is 00:04:56 things like that coming which obviously are good to have and you prefer to have it than not but you don't go to London for shopping anymore
Starting point is 00:05:03 you don't need to you've got to hear yeah do what I mean yeah Hannah who sat with us our new gorgeous assistant she was just saying
Starting point is 00:05:11 that people just don't enjoy things when they get good basically they love to hate on good things especially in Glasgow yeah and that's a shame
Starting point is 00:05:19 but basically my point was am I being a hating because of lo-bubbles, sunny angels. No, but for me... But if it brings paper enjoyment, though, Zoe, then fair enough. No, but I'm sorry, we're all in our 20s and 30s are buying toys.
Starting point is 00:05:33 I don't get it. The only toy you should be buying is a fucking vibrator. I just don't think it's necessary. I think it's weird. Love it. Also, whilst we're on the subject of cool things, changing the subject, the Whippley, the girlies were just telling us about too good to go.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Have you heard of that, Zoe? No, never. So that is, basically, is there different supermarkets that are on the app and then you would go on there and see what a surprise bag? So it's like a surprise thing
Starting point is 00:06:03 like Labuboos, you get a bag for two quid and then you open it and Becca's also sat with us here and she's vegan and she got eggs and four loaves of bread but for two quid that's a bagging.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I don't enjoy the unknown of any of this. What? I do. Unknown of things. Surprise element, Zoe. Nah. Okay. Also, I want to choose my groceries, do you know what I mean? So if you want to look at an app called Too Good to Go on it
Starting point is 00:06:29 because I can't wait to download that when I finish here. I'm assuming it's a avoid wastage thing. Yes, exactly. I'm here for that, I think, you know, save the planet and all. Imagine going to Greg so you get like 10 state bakes? I'd do that, absolutely. I love that. Imagine a sausage cheese and bean bait.
Starting point is 00:06:45 I love them, do you? And I'd also just like to say, I prefer the vegan sausage rolls to the normal ones. Me too. I do. What's that about? I would eat corn sausages always. Would you? Yeah?
Starting point is 00:06:57 Mm. I'd eat corn, fake chicken, am I, aren't there? Do you know what else is really amazing? The vegan burger from Burger King. It's unreal. Do you agree? Yes, it is unbelievable. Milk.
Starting point is 00:07:11 The Richmond sausages. But I don't know if they're vegan, but they're veggie. No. Are they? Yeah. Vegan. Amazing. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Thanks a match. I don't know if I've ever told anyone this. I was vegetating for a year and a half. Yes, you have mentioned that. Yeah. Anyway, what's been a lot on your plate? Tell us. Who's going fast?
Starting point is 00:07:29 You. Oh, fuck, and I'll be here all day. Guys, right, I've got a lot on my plate this week. Emotionally and physically. So I'll start with the physically. I went to Brett, which was amazing. I haven't been there for years. Really loved it.
Starting point is 00:07:47 I took Jensen, of course. He was looking at all the chefs and, actually I gave him to the waitress and she took him off me and was just walking around and I was just sipping a glass of champagne and then I went to Sebs and I didn't say this on my Instagram but I
Starting point is 00:08:03 got the worst food poisoning guys I can't believe that by the way oh I don't know what it was from and I love Sebs I've probably been there like three or four times now and I can't put my finger on what it was I had the saviche and you didn't have any of that I had the tiny specs
Starting point is 00:08:21 I didn't like it. But I also had a cocktail with egg white on top. I had two of them. And I say like maybe four in the morning I wasn't feeling very good and I gave Jensen to Richard I was like you're going to have to look after him
Starting point is 00:08:35 like I really, I can't deal with this. We felt weird moving out but I just had a sore throat from talking too much. I get coughing didn't I was like I kept saying why is my phone? But I thought you were just the same as me because Sebs and Collin of Talk were really loud so when you really need to shout
Starting point is 00:08:49 when you're speaking so I lose my voice in that situation so I thought you were just having the same problem but definitely wasn't that and then when I got home guys this is 2MI but we're really good friends now but I went to the toilet and I obviously went to the toilet I was like okay something's not right and before I knew it I was shitting and spewing at the same time I don't know how that's scientifically possible but it does happen that's never happened to me before and anyone listening like RIP because it was hell but I was like what is going on all over the bathroom. I woke up to a picture
Starting point is 00:09:21 of your sick from Richard and I can't believe you sent you that so rude. I didn't know if it was I'm not sure what it was. I'm not. And bless him he
Starting point is 00:09:30 listen when you give birth all dignity is out of the window anyway. Like I've started farting in front of Richard now like that's how that's how it's going well we were walking down the street
Starting point is 00:09:40 there and I went because anyone smell that to someone I said did Jenison just fart and you went know it was me you didn't need to admit that you could get away with that I don't know why I admit that
Starting point is 00:09:50 We're on GWR as well It could have been anyone It also could have been Jensen who I was holding him Wouldn't have back to the eyelid And you went to know it was me I know I don't know why I admitted that You were seeing someone's walking in the fart
Starting point is 00:10:01 So wood because you walk into the fart I said to Richard it doesn't matter now I've trapped you, I've got a kid be here So you fuck with me forever Anyway So he must have Bless his heart It was like listen I'll clean it up
Starting point is 00:10:11 I was in a really really bad way That's a good man for you right there by the way I've never felt that bad He cleaned my shit and spew and yeah I was so ill for about 48 hours and it's a shame because I was going away down south was there anything you ate before that by the way because you know there's apparently a rule
Starting point is 00:10:28 that you don't get food poisoning for like 440 hours and now I did think that and I thought maybe it was something else but listen I eat a lot of different foods I'm a foodie and I've never ever ever got sick in my life in that sense but our friend did message and say
Starting point is 00:10:45 there was a stomach bug going around and stuff which I hadn't heard but it could have been that it was my first night away I was the girls from Jensen for a few hours easier I know I don't know obviously
Starting point is 00:10:56 want to be bad on steps but the things that I had were raw fish and raw egg were egg white the other thing I thought was and I don't know anything about this but because you obviously don't have a lot of those things when pregnant
Starting point is 00:11:07 does it then affect you differently if you have too much of it or something you'd a whole plate of servici to yourself really and it was just bloody amazing by the way but was it like the volume of it was maybe to, I don't know, maybe, but my friend was also eating in the restaurant. She had that dish and she was absolutely fine.
Starting point is 00:11:23 So I just want to say, Sebs is an unbelievable place to go and eat, so I'm not sagging it, but that's what was a lot on my plate. I was so ill. It was tragic. Anyway. Did you feel good after it, oh? Skinny. No, I didn't.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I felt rough as tits. Felt rough as tits. And then I went down south to Whitby and Darlington. I'm sure you guys, I'll see that on my Instagram now, I sang it from the rooftops, but I'm going to do a whole reel on both of them because I've got some beautiful content and I really want to get into like more nice sort of vloggy style reels
Starting point is 00:11:56 and travel stuff because I haven't posted on my page for a long time and actually I go to some really cool places and I think that you guys should go to them too because they were really amazing. But went down to Whitby first to a place called Saltmore. Really loved it. I haven't taken jensis to the beach yet. In fact, I haven't been to an English seaside beach for myself in a long time
Starting point is 00:12:15 and it gave a lot of nostalgia. It was giving Blackpool vibes, you know, I loved it, but it wasn't as, I don't know, as cheesy as Blackpool, but Whitby's lovely, by the way, and Sam... I don't think we can compare anything half decent to Blackpool. Yeah, I know, that was a bit unfair. That's the worst place I've been in a long time. You loved it, you said, Blackpool Pier rides?
Starting point is 00:12:35 I'll never be back. Do you remember when you went there, by the way? Yeah, I'm scared. So, went down to Whitby. Sam's End was kind of where Saltmore was, So it's just another beach away from where it'd be like five minute drive, went to a little village also called Robin Hood's Bay, which was beautiful, so many little cute shops.
Starting point is 00:12:57 The hotel itself was great. A really nice day would definitely recommend, a really nice spa. And it's very up and coming, like, they've got a lot of accommodation being built on the premises, if you like, so you can have like villas. It's actually part owned by that Montana from Love Island, which I think we might have discussed on here before. And I think we mentioned that much. Very random.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Yeah, because we both came across at the same time, mine, because she posted about her baby or something. And then we realised it was hers. Really nice. Outdoor back. I think that's so random. And the room fee was, because what enticed me to stay was,
Starting point is 00:13:28 the Times had released an article saying the best UK beach hotels to stay out in 2025, and that was number one. I thought, oh my God, we've already saved that. I've definitely want to go. Then I checked on my map because Kippenook was where I wanted to go for my baby moon. Yeah. And it was an hour away, literally.
Starting point is 00:13:44 just across. So I thought, I'm going to pair it together. And yeah, it was really good. I really recommend it. Looks bloody gorgeous. Whitby was cute. Then we drove across the Darlington and I stayed in Kippinuck. Guys, wow. One of the best, best cabin staycations. I mean, I've not stayed at loads, but I can imagine just because of the facilities that are there, the things that you can do, the fact that it caters to so many different people's and activities, it's, I can't recommend it to you enough. I stayed in one of their new cabins called The Story, but it's all off grid. So there's no Wi-Fi in the cabins themselves. But the central workshop, which you can go to and do all the stuff, does have Wi-Fi. So for anyone that's stressed about that,
Starting point is 00:14:26 Richard was like, I can't believe there's no TV in here. I was like, surely, mate, you can download some on your iPad if you really need to watch something. I think we can survive a couple of days. He was fine. But I think he's the thought of it at first. He was like, what? But our cabin was right near the workshop, but some of them are quite far away. I think sometimes you go what are these places, all you want to do is actually be in the cabin. So maybe people are like, well, what am I going to do? Yeah, because to be fair, you are a bit like, well, what would you do?
Starting point is 00:14:49 You'd light a fire and you could eat nice food, but you'd take a book. I didn't take my Kindle and I wish I did, but I suppose I had a child to look after that. Right, let me have peace for more than 10 seconds. But it was beautiful. It looked unbelievable. It looked so wholesome. And it was actually, we really needed that time together, I think. It's when you are new parents, you spend so much time focusing all your,
Starting point is 00:15:12 energy on a little human keeping them alive you're together but you're not really together yeah sort of past the parcel almost and I bet you that was a good in between to take and Jensen a way abroad yes it was because you still need all the same stuff my car was rammed by the way
Starting point is 00:15:28 imagine you forgot something no you could go home yeah I know you could a broad drive but it's a big booking a flight and all that you could just drive somewhere and get something easily I need to get myself a travel stroller not yet but when I can travel there's a few that I've got my eye on that I want but yeah there's traveling with a child it was like wow there's so much shit that you need but it was
Starting point is 00:15:47 fine it was honestly doable and you just I just packed my car stupid I just packed for any occasion really that is good for you know what I did I use all my hospital bags you know my little zippy things and I made outfits for him like muslins nappies and then outfit one two three and then sleep suits it was perfect I was actually thinking about this at some points I saw obviously I think James is always cute when I see him but I see you get him ready in the house right yeah but I think it's when I was away I saw a kid like roaming the streets obviously roaming the streets obviously with his family right he was like one and I thought thinking of your own outfits a lot never mind your child's I know I actually had them all laid out on the floor and I thought I wonder how
Starting point is 00:16:29 long I'm going to keep this up doing this for it's my first trip away I was getting excited I thought will I be doing this in the abroad holiday probably not be very honest but also what I remember when we were on with girls overhaired as they had said to you anything you can do the night before do it and do you know i do that now do you i mean not always obviously sometimes see me but see if i can i know i've got quite a busy day or even if i've got cookie and i know things are quite chaotic i'll do my outfit everything iron at all whatever i'm doing the night before that's really good that's we went to see richard's dad in edinburgh a few weeks ago when we actually the first time he met him and i did that the night before i did the nappy bag ready so when we got up in the morning it was a
Starting point is 00:17:08 case of literally changing him yeah and off we popped you've got everything easy easy um so yeah i really recommend kipp and nook guys so so so freaking great amazing vacation and then i just think in terms of i think how i felt as like a parent this week has been quite different he i loved him so much when i'm away like i'm loving him more and more every single day and when you're with someone in that sort of close-knit environment with just your little three of you. It just, I felt, maybe the feeling I'm trying to describe that I'm experiencing at the moment is contentment. It's weird.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I don't really know how to describe how I feel because parenting is just different every single day. As you know, I've had difficulties with reflux, which was really bad. The day we got back, the day after we got back. He doesn't know what it can matter if he told these. No, I don't know what was going on, but what day would it have been? Monday or Tuesday he was screaming all day and it was really tough and I thought I felt like I was back at square one
Starting point is 00:18:08 because he'd been so good and so happy and chilled but then the next day's yesterday and today he's been amazing so I just have to just keep telling myself there's probably not nothing wrong with him he's just having a difficult day with his reflux I don't know but yeah when I'm with him I just I feel like I'd just there's nowhere else I'd rather be do you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:18:29 when I look at him I think because when you were away as well like I find obviously people annoying right so see when you're on holiday and stuff you really like who you're with yes you do I mean by that absolutely yeah but you kind of enjoy your company yeah more yeah
Starting point is 00:18:44 well you've got no stresses have you and you're also having the same experience that you're both loving so it kind of makes everything happier anyway yeah but he's giving us smiles back now so you're almost feeling like you're getting rewards back for being a little
Starting point is 00:18:59 tiny person's slave and then you're like okay now you're getting some things back I always say there's nothing more humbling than like babies and kids because you know how like when they get older and you say like say you brought him over and you were like say what you were saying to me earlier and they just look at you as if like I wasn't fucking saying anything earlier
Starting point is 00:19:15 mum yeah bye I'm like there's nothing more humbling than children like you're doing all those noises to him and he's like with no expression no spell no giggle no nothing you're like cool we were actually in the queue for La Jella Tessa with my friends at the weekend right and there was a little kid in the queue in front with his parents and there was basically like a house below La Gelatessa that you can see through a vent
Starting point is 00:19:37 and he asked his dad what is that and he went oh it's there somebody's house and he went here somebody house that's well scruffy really loud the queue for that ice cream chops all the way down the street and he went I want to live there it's well scruffy they looked so embarrassed I was like nothing more humbling than a child's honest opinion
Starting point is 00:19:54 I know I love it I've got all that to comes Oz but yeah I'm really really loving being a mum and I was trying to explain this to you as well like it's not that I don't think my life had purpose before but I can't deny the fact that I think
Starting point is 00:20:09 I felt maybe a bit lost in where it was going in terms of maybe professional side of things like working for yourself's hard because you've got to keep yourself going but I maybe needed him a lot more than I thought and do you know what I mean? I think you do
Starting point is 00:20:26 I definitely needed someone who gave you like a concept of time. Yeah. And like days and weeks and months. Because I was happy. Structure? Yes. More of like your kid gives, does give you structure.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Like you kind of just wake up when you want or you need to change them if you need to do things. And when you said to me that day like I had an hour and I get so much done. I'm like because you're restricted now. Yeah. Whereas before you were too free. Yeah. It was like what days is it? I'm using my time more wisely of the spare that I get, which is not a lot.
Starting point is 00:20:53 But you actually get a lot done in it. so much more so yeah it's weird because if I didn't have a child which you know I didn't see my life going that way I honestly would have been so happy
Starting point is 00:21:06 but this has given me purpose and happiness like I never thought I could have well it's only really added it's not really taking anything no he's been a massive bonus yeah yeah one day he'll be less than us
Starting point is 00:21:20 I know I hope you do son and you're proud of me I'm sure unsure you're a chaos mom and then what's been a lot on my plate a quick rant um is i have felt maybe a little bit lack of supported in the health system this week and last week um and this is just a PSA to say that if anybody is pregnant or a new mom don't let anybody undermine you and make you what what you think is right um how do i say this without being an arsel
Starting point is 00:21:56 I think we'd just be an arsule no I don't want to be an arsill because I think I have sung the praises of NHS like so much I cannot say to how amazing they've been to me but there are certain women that I've maybe been in this job a long time that like to patronise
Starting point is 00:22:12 first time mothers and I just want to say do not let them patronise you and tell you what they think is better from their old school ways right there is so much information out there that we can do our own research on and when you think something is right for your child, like go with it
Starting point is 00:22:28 because I have been had so much misinformation, conflicting information as well and actually women speak to me like a piece of shit. They make you feel daft and it got to be the point where it really got me upset. And I thought, are you happy making a first time I'm cry on the phone because all I want to do is help my son who's got a tongue tie and you, I don't want to go too much into that, but listen, if you want to go private and you're able to, then I really encourage it if you really are sure on it and you're not getting anywhere with the system
Starting point is 00:23:00 because yeah that's what I want to say because I got so upset on Monday and it did make me think are you just patronising me because I'm you know I'm a first time mum I hate that and that's horrible it was awful I was so upset Richard came in as I was crying on the phone
Starting point is 00:23:15 and he wanted to grab the phone off me and scream and he could hear the way she was speaking to me and I was almost like baffled what she was saying and like and it's a shame because the team She was like the manager of a certain team and her team below her have been unbelievable
Starting point is 00:23:28 but they were off sick and she was almost telling me well we've had sickness and I thought to myself I shouldn't need to know that that's not my problem no I know she don't really need to tell the client or the patient or whatever
Starting point is 00:23:39 but we've now got a case here that's been sort of advanced which you know about but now you've kind of put me back to square one and then oh just call back tomorrow just call back tomorrow no my appointment was today and you've got like
Starting point is 00:23:53 I went private with it initially, but she wouldn't do it because they fucked up with his weights. I'll end my rant then. I just want to say, if don't let anyone just pass you off and say your baby's got colic, you'll get over it. Collic is a terminology for an issue that you want to get to the bottom of. And I personally wanted to get to the bottom of it. I didn't want to go down the route of just medicating, medicating. I wanted to look at my other options. And I've had some unbelievable support from other people in different industries.
Starting point is 00:24:23 The osteopath is great if you want to look at that option. Private lactation consultants, I have shared that my health visitor, the first one wasn't very good and supportive. She was lovely, but she got a lot of things wrong and things were missed. So you have the right to ask for a different health visitor if you don't feel supportive. And it's a shame because as a mother, a first time, it's such a vulnerable time and you should feel supported and heard is what I want to say. You should feel heard.
Starting point is 00:24:50 You've also just been passed that responsibility of a human that you need to look after. once you've just to say, oh, I'll just hope for the best and hope it's all right. And you know the six-week check-up for a mum, but you won't know this. I didn't know this either, but you get a six-week check-up for your child and you. My doctors have scrapped that now for the mum. What the fuck's out of it? It's actually just laughable when you think about it. I've had major abdominal surgery and like if you had that sort of surgery, or anyone, by the way, that had any sort of birth, I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:25:16 But if you had a knee surgery, you would still get lots of follow-ups. but we don't get listened to anymore okay that's my rant over but we need to keep reproducing so the world keeps going around okay but your six week checkup that you would have with them and all they say is to you is
Starting point is 00:25:33 right so what contraceptive to pill can you put you on then that's true they would just ask you how to stop you having another child anyway fuck off everyone I'm going to get angry
Starting point is 00:25:46 can I say something positive about motherhood absolutely nice. Yeah. I felt last week when I listened back to the podcast, I was quite hard on breastfeeding right. I felt like I wasn't hard, but I was just being honest about the downsides. And I think if you're listening to this and you're going to, you're pregnant or you're listening and you're, you're wanting to try it or whatever. Here's my positives that I'm finding so far with it. So all I did, I think last week was listened to negatives. And I think if it was me, I'd enjoy to listen to some positives about some things. I honestly, I don't agree with that. But I think,
Starting point is 00:26:17 okay. Okay. Apart from the obvious, you can do your research of what breast is whatever but I'm a lazy lazy fucker and for me it's unreal because I literally plug him on my tits in the night that's positive number one that I love I also feel grateful that he takes a bottle so I can
Starting point is 00:26:35 either pump and dump or put it in a bottle and he can have that so which is great positive they say that you lose weight yet to see that but fingers crossed I think you'll just wake up one do you like what the fucking fuck but Zoe I sent Zoe a screenshot of the YouTube
Starting point is 00:26:51 of the placenta episode and it was next to the one of our screenshot on YouTube of last week guys please look at the difference of my face so it was bad even Richard was like
Starting point is 00:27:02 whoa no I'll be honest I agree with you now but at the time I didn't see it but I see you too much yeah I did
Starting point is 00:27:09 when I saw you right before and in the hospital you had puffy face yeah I did like I would never not say you did because you did I was massive but so does everyone
Starting point is 00:27:19 like that's what happens but I think because weekly I see you and sit here with you as well as see you other days I just didn't notice it I gained three stone maybe we should ask money if you noticed Murray
Starting point is 00:27:31 Jessica did you notice Jesse's face getting puffier well Graham I walked him one time and Graham went Wow you're massive Yeah he's not the most subtle man genuinely no I can't say I did notice your face getting puffier Right I want you to look at the screenshot
Starting point is 00:27:47 difference and you'd be like I think it probably is when you get something like quite drastic to compare it to months apart, whereas we're doing week on week on week, so it's probably just getting slightly slow. That's maybe why. So there's a positive for you guys. If you are pregnant and you're feeling like you're a bit puffy, it goes pretty instantly.
Starting point is 00:28:02 I mean, I said you were also creating a human so any puffiness is allowed. There we have. We have that. You're allowed to be puffy, absolutely. I really like the bonding of it, which is weird considering the blending bonding bondiness of it. And I didn't have a period. I don't have a period back.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Is that factual? that you don't get that if you're breastfeed. I don't know if it's factual. There's obviously cases, but for a lot of people, your periods probably wouldn't come back for a while. I don't know if that's factual. It's not a safe contraceptive.
Starting point is 00:28:31 No, I know, but it's like common that if you breastfeed, you tend to not. Yes, that's correct, yeah. Wow. And also, I feel like, if there's an issue, boobs the answer. It soothes them. Even if there's not milk coming out,
Starting point is 00:28:43 soothes him at the moment. Yeah. But you also like... Like it's a comfort as well as food. Yeah. For your baby. Yeah. No, that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:28:50 I just thought I'd share some positives because I didn't want to be negative about it because I am loving it and that's why I'm continuing doing it because I am enjoying it. My placenta pills have run out though and I do think I noticed the difference because I was emotional. Anyway I've spoken far too much. Fuck off Jess. Zoe, tell me what you've been up to. You've been doing some really fun things. So since we were here, I actually have been quite busy, you're right, for once.
Starting point is 00:29:17 I went to a lovely event at Crossbasket, Hotel. Yes This is me after saying When I had Reese on the podcast I don't want to be an influencer I don't want to get invited to things right Oh you don't want to mime on I don't want to mime on TikTok either
Starting point is 00:29:31 But when I don't want to go for like I don't want to be an influencer me right But I want to for us Go and experience things that I can then talk about I hope that makes sense There's a difference there Anyway if you invite me to a hotel I'll go for an overnight so
Starting point is 00:29:44 Thanks Yeah, set them in Yeah keep them coming But anyway when and I took my mum God She looked gorgeous and happy Oh, sorry about the ice Yeah, she loves that shit
Starting point is 00:29:54 And we were thinking Do we take cookie, do we not Because I would love to take it To stuff like that But equally she's still quite young And when we were doing all these things She would have had to be in the crate in the room So what, how's that fun for her?
Starting point is 00:30:06 Yeah Who I was speaking to about it I said I might bring my dog We arrived there And there was two big massive Dog bowls in the hotel room And a big fluffy bed And then I felt like the worst more in the world
Starting point is 00:30:16 She hadn't got her I've left my way in the home I know Me my mom looked at her like, that's horrible. We're terrible parents. Anyway, you know how people say that I sound like my mom when I'm in the car? You sound just like Suzanne, like his spitting voice. Wow.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Love it. Lucky her. So anyway, the room was gorgeous and you had two wee gift bags in the bed, right? And as we were walking out at the hotel, there was a wee shop. It's kind of what I said to jelly was, I feel like once it's done, because it's not got a spa yet, but it's getting a massive spa. Yeah. I thought it was going to have that.
Starting point is 00:30:50 I feel like it's going to be quite... I don't want to say Glen Eagles, right? Because nothing's Glen Eagles. But I think what they'll have is sort of like an estate where you can go and spend a day or two and there's different things to do. You've got a spy, get afternoon tea,
Starting point is 00:31:05 you've got a few different restaurants and you can walk around the grounds. Like there's more to do than just an overnight. And it's just up the road. It kind of feels like what you're going up the road for an overnight for when your house is 10 minutes away. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:31:18 But anyway, We went for afternoon tea in the castle That was honestly unbelievable Was it? It looked lovely from your pics It was really good And everything I tried was unreal They had this like coronation chicken And like a really crispy ball
Starting point is 00:31:32 That's the best thing I've ever eaten in my whole life What? Like an Arincini type thing Or hang his bumbon Kind of right But I can't explain the crispy butter It was more like Kind of melted in your mouth Like it wasn't thick
Starting point is 00:31:45 It was unbelievable Anyway had afternoon tea went back to the room, got ready and they went for dinner. And I walked into the restaurant and I gasped. Why? Because it was so gorgeous. Because it's got a stage with lights and there was a jazz band on.
Starting point is 00:32:00 And it's kind of set up like a bit of a speakeasy, I would say. You know, I looked at the events page on Crossbasket and there's different people every day, right? So it's not that same cabaret style that some people, because I've seen quite a lot of people go by the way past few weeks. They must have invited quite a lot of people, I'm guessing.
Starting point is 00:32:17 And they were doing a kind of press, influence on opening week. Each day there was like a different one. So we had, when we walked in, we got a drink at the bar at first and it was like a kind of jazz band on. Right. Which was really nice and then when we sat down a kind of
Starting point is 00:32:32 music group came on that were more like uptown funk and all that. Like your get the vibes pumping. Yeah. And then there was dancers like going around the restaurant dancing as well. Wow. Which fair fucks to them by the way dancing right your tail like that. I could never. What? With the facial expressions and all that. I could never.
Starting point is 00:32:49 I actually know the girl as well who's dance group that is because she's my Pilate's instructor Who's that? Fallon her name is I saw her and I was like... Oh from Revolution Yeah and that's her dance group She's like a mama joint of them
Starting point is 00:33:02 Oh wow I know and then breakfast the next day was like They had a bloody mate Did that we call that? Bloody Mary Station Bloody Mary Station Fresh juices Yogurt bowl station
Starting point is 00:33:14 And then you could order like your typical pancake Add the pancakes And they were unbelievable What's the bedroom's like, gorgeous? So I've stayed there, but remember when I say they put me in that bloody castle, the castle. So we went in the castle. So this is a whole separate bit now.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Oh! So they've got the castle, which I think is something like, say 20 rooms, for example, right? So if you're having a wedding there, a small amount of people can stay. Yeah. So that's where the wedding night part and everything probably still be. But then they've got this completely separate building that's, I think, the new part. that's got the breakfast in it, the restaurant, which is Trocaderos, which is like...
Starting point is 00:33:52 Is that the restaurant name? Yes. Right, okay. And that's a Michelin Star Chef that's in the kitchen, I think. But he was there before. Right, okay. Michelle, how'd say, is it, Michelle Rue? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Yeah, not Michael Rue, Michelle Rue, Jr. Yeah, so the food was great as well. I honestly had the best time. I had a really great time. Have you seen people tag fucking lobsters? No, I nearly got. Yeah, you could get lobster. And we did thank you about it, but I was like, do you need to do all your shit?
Starting point is 00:34:21 I can be honest. Talking of Mitch and Star Restaurants, myself and Zosso are having an overnight at Glen Eagles. We are. Next week. And we wanted to get into Andrew Furley, but they're closed for the night. Really wanted to go to that. I'm annoyed to that, actually. Also, just quickly, you know how we said about Glen Eagles being like seven grand a night at Christmas, whatever it was?
Starting point is 00:34:43 I looked at the five, have you ever seen the Fife Arms? Yes. It's another really cool hotel. I've been there for a drink before. It's really fucking cool there. I had a look at how much it costs to stay there. You think Glen Eagles is expensive, guys. Go and look on that website,
Starting point is 00:34:59 look at how much Five Farms is staying at night. But an average night. I cannot even bear it. It's sick to even think. It's over one and a half grand to stay in a bedroom there. What, who in the right mind is staying there? Please. Nobody needs to go away from her home for a night that much.
Starting point is 00:35:14 No much. Anyway, sorry. Anyway, so when's that event? And honestly, I couldn't recommend it enough. And I think when the spa there, spas there, it'll be so good. And also it's like East Coast Brideway, isn't it? It's really not fun. High plantar technically, it's like 10 minutes up the road from your Lanarkshire folk.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Yeah. That's the thing with spa, you have to go so far. I know. And I think the spa is going down kind of near, I think a river kind of runs through it or something. So I think it's going down near that, so it'll be very, like, tranquil. Wow. Yeah, yeah. You can connect with nature.
Starting point is 00:35:47 and all that. Love. I wouldn't do that. I did my AirPods in. Anyway. Do you know what else I did before I went? I went in holiday, right, but I'll get to that. I went to cut and blow dry, can you believe it?
Starting point is 00:35:59 I've never done that in my life. Orskill I had a cotton blow dry. I needed it. I was riding to the sun came down. My hair was touching my arshall. It was not okay. Do you know what? You sit in the hairdresser.
Starting point is 00:36:16 You think my hair looks nice. every time before you get it done. Do you not do that? Why is that? You're like, my colour looks brilliant while I'm about to go and die. I know. But basically, Florence, how I go to for my colour is miles away, right? Yeah, she's far. And she's full booked all the time.
Starting point is 00:36:29 I just needed a cut. Like, I just needed something to live myself up. Yeah. So I booked a place quite local to me. And honestly, I had a great time. And I got some layers cut in and I get a good trim. You went to that blondie and bobble, didn't you? Yeah, it was good.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Looks nice there, by the way. And it's good. just having a place that you can just nip into a wee cut, a wee trim, do you know what I mean? Yeah. I don't think I've... They couldn't that they do there, those, looks really nice. No, I know, and it's so lovely. It was a nice
Starting point is 00:36:58 buzzy vibe, I enjoyed myself actually. Do you? But I just don't think I've ever, ever had my hair cut out of colour. I just can't ever think of doing that. Yeah, no, I agree. And this bit that's hanging down the front, that was at my nipple, like I had no layer.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Really? Everything was long. and you're an air up girlie now so you can start doing your layers and styling it nice I know I will need to give that a good bash I've not been on that for a few weeks yeah the patience is waiting for me that
Starting point is 00:37:25 I think I need moose right I think I need something that why don't you use that colour wow I used that doesn't it work but then I think all of this was through the fact that my hair was just long
Starting point is 00:37:36 all one length and like heavy it doesn't hold anything whereas now it's got a bit of layers on it all what's that one that people rabe about the colour wow but it's the volume xxel maybe you could try that. Bit of volume going on. Yeah, I've not used that, but I've heard it's good.
Starting point is 00:37:51 I just want a bit of bounds, do you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, Moose would do the trick then. But I'll let you all know that I think that I can't board a day. Were you ever in that era where you used to use moose and you used to scrunch it up and you'd have like hard hair? Hard hair. Someone had jizzed in it. It was like spaghetti.
Starting point is 00:38:09 By the way, see, speaking of that, I then went out. Of jizz? No, not jizz. Hard hair. I then went out after my blow dry, right? Because it was one of my friends who I used to work with leaving night from old work, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:38:21 And I was standing at the bar speaking to one of my friends and the way to bar girl literally was at the opposite end of the bar but accidentally spilled a peseco but onto me. Right. And one half of my hair got all wet and hard
Starting point is 00:38:37 and I just did a blow dry. Right, a few men. I just went home and brushed it out and forgot about it, but how on is that? Anyway. Go so it, bro Right, tell us about Myorka
Starting point is 00:38:52 Okay, then I went to Myorka God All this in two weeks Yeah, by the way We actually That time we were recorded It was two weeks ago So we have
Starting point is 00:39:01 This is not all the space of one week No, this was on the space of two days I went to crossbasket On the Wednesday night Got my hair cut and went out The Thursday night And went to Myorka at 8am in Friday He's booked and busy
Starting point is 00:39:13 It's a lot I don't know I do it to myself. Anyway, I went to me walk for a wee long weekend. Wanted some sunshine with Jason. And what I'm going to tell you is how unlucky's this. I flew Ryanair in the way there and sleazy jet in the way back. Wow. A double dunt of shite.
Starting point is 00:39:30 Honestly, I couldn't believe it. Also, I flew from Presswick. Yeah. There's not a... Can I tell you something? There was a W. H. Smith, right, we were starving Marvin. It's half a night in the morning. There was no assignment.
Starting point is 00:39:43 There was no assignment. language in the fridge. Shut up. There was not a single thing. No, there was nothing there. Pressway. Part for people drink pines. Do you know what else happened?
Starting point is 00:39:54 It's such a good airport day for like Lanzarote and Seneh Reef, isn't it? Brits Abroad. Yeah, it's Ferry Brits Abroad. And this is what's Brits Abroad as well. We get through security, which is one person, check your stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:07 And there was this guy with a tenants t-shirt on, right, who'd poured down a bottle of water. I was kind of watching something. All right, he looked kind of train spotting vibes, right? Oh, cute. And I thought, you're away for a lads, lad, lads. Anyway, next minute I know the police are in. Oh.
Starting point is 00:40:23 And he's getting arrested. Oh. Wait, did you like this in the group? Yeah, you did, yeah, yeah. He was getting arrested. And you know what it was for, which, and my pin's fucking pathetic. He's a way to go in holiday with his pals, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:34 They obviously can't find him or don't know how to track him down until he scans his passport at the airport. Shut up. The police then come, pure on-call 9-9-9, hurry up. The guy's here. It was for putting a smoke bomb off. at a football game about six months ago and he got arrested and took away
Starting point is 00:40:48 and he kind of going his holiday. I think that's shit. Fair enough if he'd murder someday with a drug dealer right? Just gas the whole fucking football stadium. It was just a smoke bomb. He was just trying to get the vibes up for Dundee. Zoe! He was a Dundee fan. They need all the help they can get, you know what I mean? Oh my God, you're fucking funny. I honestly couldn't stop thinking about him for hours so I thought that's a sin. Also, how rage when you week up at six in the morning?
Starting point is 00:41:14 And then you get fucking arrested. I'd be human. Oh, you're fucking funny. Went to New Yorker, right? What else I've got to say is the whole of Spain and Portugal lost its power whilst I was there. Yeah, and you had no idea. I had no idea.
Starting point is 00:41:29 And I'll tell you how. Because we were connected to Wi-Fi, obviously, right? Saving the 4G and all that. And when a wee walk at lunch, managed to pay for things fine, not a problem. So that shop was fine. Again, nothing to trigger the thought. No one had messaged because they thought of my organ. was okay because it's like not mainland Spain yeah so everyone assumed we were okay
Starting point is 00:41:47 which obviously we were from here anyway then we go out for dinner everything fine again card working but we had no signal when we were out yeah but i'm with sky and sky shy so me and jason just thought if sky's lost it its power anyway sky's sky's shy that's sky sponsor out the window the reception sorry sky we love you just the reception right everything else perfect no just the reception She's the mobile. Anyway, they went into a shop for we like a wee chocolate bar when you get back to the room for holiday night.
Starting point is 00:42:22 So when I'm in there and she was like, no card, no signal. I remember like, that's fucking weird. So we went to the cash machine, got some cash. Again, no issue, no thoughts. Yeah. Nothing. Went to the rooftop bar.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Had a great time. A few apparel's loving life. Went back to the hotel, went to pay for shop and they were like the card machines are down. Me and Jason looked at the child that's fucking weird. Someone else just said that.
Starting point is 00:42:43 That's happened to us twice. then they were like the whole island's lost power like two major countries have lost their power this was at 10pm this happened at 10 30 am by the way me you'd not a fucking clue about it oh 12 hours have passed and me are tuned to the moon that's sign of a good time so they had to just charge it to the room
Starting point is 00:42:58 I don't even know if I could build for that coffee table book I bought anyway I can't with you today went back to the room and I was having a great time net until I thought Jason started looking at it was saying cyberattacking all that and I thought, what if you do get stuck here forever?
Starting point is 00:43:16 It's all fun and games for a day or two. Right, where did you stay? Anyway. I stayed in Bikini Hotel, right? The hotel you put on the map. So many people replied to me by the way saying that's the best place ever and I really wanted to say,
Starting point is 00:43:30 did you stay there because of Jess? Of course you fucking did. Got a new answer. Honestly, if you're not stayed in Solair, so yeah, it's just a beautiful place, isn't it? It is. Very magical. I've got one thing to say,
Starting point is 00:43:43 the bed's a shit okay there's two things then why did we have two single dovies can't bear it did you have that yes that's why I think the beds are shit it's the only the only gripe I have which is a big gripe actually when you stay in the hotel you want to relax I hate the beds
Starting point is 00:43:58 and I don't know if it's because it's like an eco-friendly thing but please get a double quilt and make the pillars more comfy can't bear it it was the smallest quilt I've ever experienced my life it was like a blanket anyway there's one thing I need to say oh that was not it No, that wasn't it.
Starting point is 00:44:14 So there's, with a stalwarted maybe there's actually two or three. It's slightly itchy vibes. Slightly, yeah. Do you agree with that? There's just something
Starting point is 00:44:25 that there was this thing hanging over the TV they do with that? It's like multi-golly I don't know if I've got in a picture but I do if I try and say it one. It's very like hippie,
Starting point is 00:44:35 Dippy. I don't know if I'm into the piece sign I'm off the bed. Yeah, well it is all about that you have a sustainable bottle to go and refill your No, I need to shout about that for the rooftops. Richard loved that.
Starting point is 00:44:46 It was his favourite thing. No, I think it was my favourite thing. The fact that they give you a flask and they've got a water trap at the side of the pool with ice, cold water or sparkling water by them, which is actually out of service, but I don't care because I drink it. Anyway, for every day when they could be charging you seven euro for a big jug of water at the pool, I think's unbelievable. Yeah. I loved it. And it made me drink so much as well.
Starting point is 00:45:06 The location, the view, the breakfast view. Neni restaurant is amazing. I can't believe I didn't come back three stone after walking up that hill three times a day. It's tough. Nobody mentioned that. And also when you go into, did you take a paddle board down to the thing?
Starting point is 00:45:19 No. I'm not carrying that down. Some graft, by the way. I'll be done and I get blessed it all over my feet. But how about the walk up to Jamera? Oh my. Why did none of you as mention this? This is the part of the reason
Starting point is 00:45:32 why I'm really unsure where to stay with Jensen when I go to New Yorker because it's as amazing as we want it to be his first place. It's a bit up and down. I'm struggling to understand how we're going to make that happen. unless you're strapped to me but then I'll be like carrying an extra weight no anyway I did have a nice time I did love bikini and I would recommend it to everyone like I did feel very zen content loving life there the only of the hotels around
Starting point is 00:45:59 there's Jamera which is extortionate is that the same chain as Dubai yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah oh yeah so I said to the rooftop there a nice rooftop um that's another I I think it's like a three-star hotel there. I'm not sure, but it's like good vibes and good rooftop. And then you could stay in some nice hotels in the town. The town have got some really nice Airbnbs. But in terms of hotels or Finker, you could like hire a Finker, a villa.
Starting point is 00:46:29 I don't know. It's a Finker. In Spanish. But it's called Finker if you search it. Well, we're getting all a Spagna. Spagna. Paya. Nothing else in more.
Starting point is 00:46:42 Buffalo. Get to the... Why do Spanish people have a lesbian? No. Oh my worries. Don't you just hate it? There were people do that. Do you say... Do you want to go down to the beach and get to Bahia in Barcelona?
Starting point is 00:47:09 Fuck off! Do you say grazias or grapias? or grapias? Graziez? Graziez? I wouldn't say Graziez? That's... My face is wet.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Wow, we've spoke for so long even spoke about any products. Lull. What I was going to mention about the power cut is Jason plugged an iron into the room. Why can't I say that? Jason plugged... That is right, no?
Starting point is 00:47:38 Jason plugged an iron in. In that morning in our hotel room the power tripped in our room alone. So basically you're the reason why Spain lost all of his power. We think we took away Spain and Portugal's power. Imagine if you did.
Starting point is 00:47:54 I think we did. I actually think we did. Also, you need to stop making me laugh at it. There's a few things I need you mention. One being, I was putting my sun cream on at the pool, right? Yep. By the way, I went in holiday with fake tan on. I've never done that.
Starting point is 00:48:08 My son worshipper. And I couldn't recommend it enough. I used filter by Mollime Medium And did you still get... Medium, did you still get tan underneath it? Well, I think you look... Yeah, you do, you still get a tan. It doesn't stop you from tanning
Starting point is 00:48:20 and I also used the Hawaiian Tropic because I know jelly uses that that's got no oil in it to... Yes. Suncream. Anyway, the last day I was just using like scozy because, like, who cares at that point? I'm over it.
Starting point is 00:48:31 And I actually scoished it over my arm onto some guy's face behind me. Stop! And I had to turn around and be like, I'm so sorry. And you know when someone's like not really having a banter about it. and he was like, okay
Starting point is 00:48:43 and I looked away and it was all over his hat and that, so I was like, I'm really, I'm sorry by the way. And I had... I'm really, really sorry, Nikki. I'm sorry, but I wanted to die. I would have rather dried in that moment. Anyway, sorry, I've still got two things. God, I can't stop laughing today.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I need to know why I get a burnt to crisp scalp every holiday when I wear a hat from morning tonight. You are really fair-haired down first, skinned. But why does my scalp get red raw when I've got a hat on? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Like it truly makes no sense to me. I wear a cap at the pool every day. Wow, I don't know. Maybe it's the hairdryer. I feel like I hold it close to my head. Yeah, it could be that. Burns quite a lot. Zoe!
Starting point is 00:49:30 Right. Right. I've just got one more thing to say, sorry. Go, go. I read two books on that thing. Right. I was away for four nights. Name the books, then we can discuss them inside.
Starting point is 00:49:41 dish. Pays and more deep. The end. I'll discuss some inside dish. Okay, perfect. Right, so we have a few things to talk about inside dish. We've got some new openings.
Starting point is 00:49:52 We'll talk about some fashion things as well inside dish and some dilemmas. We've got some amazing dilemmas. It's a shame I wanted to do a dilemma today as well, but we can save some of them for next week. Sometimes we're just busy and people like to know what we've been up to. I know, I know. We have far too much.
Starting point is 00:50:04 And I've also had a few treatments as well this week that I'd like to talk about inside dish, some really good ones. What a hell? By the way, guys, never, you know, if you get your checkup, put your dentist right, I'll say this as I'm opening in the bag so we can save time. Don't ever skimp and scrape on a scale and polish because I paid to going to have a scale and polish because of how I felt like my teeth were so vile in pregnancy and I thought they need a good clean. And I went and had a new like sort of spray salt and polish, like a spray clean and polish, whenever it's fucking called it, the dentist. And they were amazing. Wow, okay.
Starting point is 00:50:37 It was about fucking 65 quid, but. So we're no scripting scraping We're splashing out Spashing out, sorry Literally What I meant is though A bit like an eye test You can't be fucked with it, can you?
Starting point is 00:50:47 No Right, I know Let's talk about the ones that you don't like There you go No, I feel like a hater Actually, I don't want to be a hater Oh, you're not a hater I don't think you're a hater
Starting point is 00:50:57 Right, well I start then Yeah Right, I absolutely don't rate Couldn't rate any less actually Memory Perfumes Wait till I try to get it open So you can actually see
Starting point is 00:51:08 see boxes like this you've got a nail they're just little sample things aren't they so the samples yeah sorry maybe a logistical idea and I feel like this is maybe a personal preference to be honest
Starting point is 00:51:21 no it's personal preference because it depends obviously what you like but I've never been so shocked that the type of sense they are and I guess the names give it away to be fair right okay what are they called blooms and Venus late August
Starting point is 00:51:35 and always or something yeah I mean, I think they smell nice, but they're just not the type of perfume that I would like. We like more like masculine, musky, maybe not too Udi, but you know what I mean? They are all your granny's bathroom to me. They are very floral. They're very floral. They're very strong.
Starting point is 00:51:55 I would say that's probably a good thing. Like if you, I can imagine they have a lot of lasting power. And I really like the fact that you're able to get samples of it before you buy a. Do you pay for this? Yeah. How much? like 12 quiddish, I'm like quite... That's good.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Yeah, because if you like them, that's all we travel sizes that are... Perfect. Would probably last you quite a bad. Nice packaging, lovely branding. I also got a candle, which, again, I'll be honest, I hated the smell. That was your granny's bathroom.
Starting point is 00:52:23 But again, like, that's my fault. I literally said rose on the description. Right, okay. So what chance have you got? And I'm expecting it to smell like Santau. I went into Julia's house of the day and she had the memory candle on. And it smelled very...
Starting point is 00:52:38 similar to lime basil and mandarin. The blanket one. Yeah. I thought that would smell like creamy popcorn. Yeah, me too. By the way, I like lime basil and mandarin. It was gorgeous. It smelled lovely.
Starting point is 00:52:48 I liked that for a house. It's nice and fresh. Okay. Right, what I dislike, and I was so suckered into this, right, because I absolutely love, love, love, love, love, Sunday Riley, CEO, Vitamin C. Can you see this on the camera? Do you like the face one?
Starting point is 00:53:02 I'll get a wee one. I'll give you that, so it stinks my eyes. Oh, really? The oil or the cream. Team. Okay. Beautiful. beautiful. That's one of my favorites, right?
Starting point is 00:53:10 I feel like a massive difference when I use that consistently, a few, maybe about two years ago. So they bought out a body version and the pictures and just look at that formulation, like it's some size, it's heavy, this was expensive. I actually used my
Starting point is 00:53:26 Space NK points for this. Look how beautiful that formulation is, right? I'm so disappointed in it because it smells of nothing. And I felt like it was going to smell like The stage cream, oranges, it doesn't smell of oranges. That smells like
Starting point is 00:53:42 chocolate. And you know if I'm using a body product right? That smells so like something, what the fuck is it? I don't know. If I'm using a body product, I want to have a fragrance on that. Fine for my face, not, unless it's something
Starting point is 00:53:58 to do as a bit magical to my skin like ameliorate where it's actually got instant results. That smells at fake time, ameliorate. Yeah, ameliorate scent is not nice, but it is an amazing product. It is... I get sure the strawberry arms. Within a day. It's magic shit, by the way.
Starting point is 00:54:13 And I think, I don't want to hate on this too much. It's just the scent. I was really disappointing the scent after Spurgeon on that. So expensive. I thought that it would, and it's really thick, which is good. I just thought it would smell gorgeous. But maybe it will be like a mealierate and it will be, make my skin bright and gorgeous. I do like the smell of that. But it's just not what you would expect. No, Zoe, no, you don't. No, you don't. It smells like my cat.
Starting point is 00:54:38 That's disgusting That smells like burnt skin It smells like burnt skin Exactly like that Like when you were on a sunburn No, don't like it Okay, a couple other things This face mask here
Starting point is 00:54:48 It's really popular Did you know if you buy this And you get sucked into this You have to leave it on your skin For your skin for four hours You leave this on your face For three to four hours Who's got the fucking time?
Starting point is 00:54:57 Nobody I don't But Also I don't find them enjoyable It was flapping off my skin After 30 minutes Yeah I don't want to sit about Without hanging off my face
Starting point is 00:55:06 No thanks But I would love to be able to have the time and see the results. So if you like this, I mean, it's nice. My skin felt lovely, but I could only keep it on for 30 minutes. I thought I can't do this. I'm patient, yeah. Right, a few things that I absolutely love that I really want to shout about.
Starting point is 00:55:21 I shared it on my Instagram, Color Wow, Money Mist. This is nearly gone. I like the bottle of that easy. Yeah, and it's one of those where you pump it, and then it's a continuous spray. You just go, really love Color Wow products. And you know, I think that I'm absolutely loving, I know we said last season that we're trying to do this thing
Starting point is 00:55:39 where I'm empty in things before I buy new things and I've kind of stuck to that but I had run out of everything bearing mind I hadn't bought anything new or keeping my skincare really simple I buy pretty much everything on Vinted now. Yeah, was that from Vintage?
Starting point is 00:55:53 Yep. What the fuck? Yeah, I think I paid £15 and it's actually about 25 full price. Wow. Maybe less than that, maybe 12 quid. And the thing with Vinted is you are not allowed to sell
Starting point is 00:56:04 anything opened or used. So everything is brand new. Maybe I'm waiting for it to arrive though What? It took literally a day This is Depends If you wanted it next day Then fine
Starting point is 00:56:16 Then get it off look fantastic You can get some good deals on there But I just thought everything now I'm checking on Vinted I'm being a sustainable queen Right Love that Really recommend
Starting point is 00:56:26 This has got to be my number one favourite new product It is taken over my Lavosh Pose B5 It's very similar packaging I think it's trying to do the same thing It's a barrier cream. It's from, I think it might be Korean, I'm not sure. I've never seen that burn to life.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Amazon. Amazon, I got completely influenced to buy it. The texture of this is so fucking gorgeous. It makes my skin so baby soft and it doesn't. La Roche Posey's amazing barrier cream. But it's greasy a little bit and it's the white cast of it. You have to, listen, it does its job and it does it, it's an amazing product. But this is everything that that is, nicer texture, no white.
Starting point is 00:57:06 cast and it makes your skin feel baby soft it almost puts like a barrier over your skin and it was about 12 quid i can't remember i'll link it we'll link it in our newsletter it's called asterea have you seen this brand called beauty of josian yep another amazing um price point gorgeous spf love it so much korean no white cast can't recommend enough however i bought the cleanser as well, shit, don't rate it. Absolutely crap. So crap, guys. Green plump, refreshing cleanser. It's really good because it's like low pH cleanser. So it's like, but it feels like rubbing frogs fall on your skin. I feel like you only need low pH for your fanny. Well, we can have pH for the face. We can have pH for face. Another really good budget
Starting point is 00:57:58 SPF would be the bioma 50 plus plus plus plus plus plus plus. Love that too. What's the, how does that come it's like a beautiful by the way I think it's a squishy oh it's squishy yeah sorry gorgeous right a wee tint sorry sorry sorry sorry gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous I love by emmer at the moment by the way we use the work for the company lull um but here we are influenced by that on tic-tok I'm going I'm going to start using a little bit of a toner when I feel like my skin needs it all the girls who seem to love this you should be using that one that I got is unbelievable Dr Jarrett Serum
Starting point is 00:58:34 Is that herb toner Yeah Okay I'll get on that then Right and now my splurges Okay I hope whoever's watching this And YouTube Get a fucking cup of tea
Starting point is 00:58:43 About half an hour ago Because we've been here for a while Yeah but everyone loves products Okay My splurges How's splurgy are we talking Splurgy? Right
Starting point is 00:58:51 But when you buy a vintid It's not splurgy This is the best serum I've ever used in my entire life It looks like a glass bottle of water. I know, and I had a sample of this from a calendar, beauty calendar from, like, look, fantastic,
Starting point is 00:59:08 or cool beauty a couple years ago. There's loads about this now, and it's called EGF. It stands for something quite important. I can't remember. But this bottle itself will cost you £220. No, get so far to fuck. Okay. I got this for £60 off vinted,
Starting point is 00:59:25 and it is unbelievable. That's like a gust of gloop. You don't want to like it. No. I am fuming. Well, I know I liked it because I had a little tester. Yeah. And it just makes my skin feel like silk and...
Starting point is 00:59:37 I'm not even going to ask to try about my hand. I've invested in it. And do you know who, do you know who what? Jamie Genevieve just went on a brand trip to Switzerland with this company, BioEffect. Some thought all the luck. Yeah. I think it's made over that way. Well.
Starting point is 00:59:52 Iceland. She went to ice. Remember that trip she went on? Like literally a couple weeks ago. No. Anyway, yeah. Bio Effect. EGF serum.
Starting point is 00:59:59 If you can get your hands on this somewhere cheap, I think it's going to blow up very soon because it's in a lot of like advent calendars. You will be like, I get it. I think it's only fair that we both have one, which means we need to buy it through the podcast. What do you think about that? Business expense.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Okay. Olivia Taylor. More money than cents at the moment, do we think? Well, not really. When I haven't bought anything for nine months for my skin. I know more joking. And then I've spent $60,000 on skincare. This is like $8.
Starting point is 01:00:29 This is 12 quid. I don't, I disagree. Listen, products are my thing. I absolutely fucking love it. And fancy hotels. Right. Retanol, I haven't been able to use it. Fuck off.
Starting point is 01:00:45 This is a pregnancy and breastfeeding safe retinol, guys. It is available in the new space NK. There we go. I got this off into. Retinal plus emotion 0.3. I bought it because it's breastfeeding safe. Okay. and pregnancy, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:02 I only use this. This is going to last me a long time. Nearly done, I swear. I'm scared. Last but not least, my lovely friend Ashley Cosmetic Consult, she has the NipTuck podcast that we talk about quite often. This is her brand. She sent me these pads, hashtag gifted.
Starting point is 01:01:20 This is her miracle skin transformation pads. It's giving Dr. Dennis Gross. Peel pads. She sent me this because she said, look, you're going to struggle with time going to get yourself a facial now that you're a new mom. I created these because of that reason and I really think you should try them.
Starting point is 01:01:39 They're absolutely amazing. Yet four in a pack, I think it's about 30, 40 quid for a month's worth of it or whatever. Bands. How many times do you use a peel pad? Yeah. Just use one sachet and you don't need anything else at night. You leave it on and the next day you wake up
Starting point is 01:01:52 and your skin is exfoliated and gorgeous. Lactic acid. I like pads because I feel easy. Yeah. Quite like the sensation of doing it. Yeah. So gorge. And for anyone wondering, in pregnancy,
Starting point is 01:02:06 all I used was Tatcha Jewie skin cream. Nearly freaking gone. I love the shit. And the La Rosh Posea cleanser for nine fucking months. And your skin is perfect. And my skin was good, so I'd like to keep it up. But I do feel like maybe the placenta pills have had a bit of a reasoning for that.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Who for no? Maybe. Right. Sorry, I hope you enjoyed that. I want to do a little bit of a mix of splurgy stuff. Guys, check out Vinted. I think that's a great tip to give. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:32 But I just thought, you know what? I'm going to buy a whole new thing to make myself feel that one bit nice when you're starting to feel a little bit of shit and tired. If you can have that little bit of self-care every day, then why the fuck not? Definitely got to do it, sister. Sorry, I feel like rambled on there,
