A Lot On Your Plate - Side Dish: What We're Loving!

Episode Date: September 1, 2023

This week on the Side Dish we take a dive inside Jess' make up bag and discuss what we are watching! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I'm here we go It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday I've owe the song But I was just thinking like I was getting like on brand you know Yeah Anyway, happy Friday It's the bonus TGI FF

Side dish baby muticles, my big dry, fat cuticles. Well, I know we said that the bonus episode was going to be all about you guys, but we've had a bit of a... A little shift. A little shift, an epiphany, some would say, is that we do also want to bring in these episodes things that we've been loving. Yeah.

Which we can still talk about in the main episode, but we want to just... Keep you updated on our most recent, like, purchases that we think you might be interesting because we know a lot of you love what's in our makeup bags, what's in our skincare bags or shelves or whatever. So we thought we would just do a bit of a mix.

Yeah. So that's the structure. And I'm not doing what's been a lot on your plates unless you listeners send in juice. Yeah. We can't have too emotional. Well, I like emotional. No, I know, but I like the juicy drama as well.

I said that the last time. Yeah. So this is your last warning. Because I thought the bonus episode last week was pretty good. It was good. I hope you enjoyed it. Some good advice there.

Sorry about this. Right. So you've actually got your makeup bag sitting there. Is that because you were organised for this episode or is it because did your makeup in the car? Baby, the latter. Anyway, you've got a few things. I want to just tell you something that I purchased yesterday.

Right, right. And it was a big purchase. How large? Large and it arrived through the door this morning. Quick delivery. Yeah, it was next day. Should be for the property. price I bought myself the air wrap

I'm gobsmacked I bought the dice and air wrap guys you just went for it I did and I was going I put it on my story and on my personal page and I said anyone got one to sell and the people said to me some people said to me there were the short barrel and I thought if I buy it then I don't have the warranty I need to go and buy the longer

barrels it's been used I just thought you know what bite the bullet buy a new one and I bought it through boots so I got the boots points. And they had a deal where you got like a free travel bag with it and free delivery. So, I mean, it was still extortionate. But I have one, well, I've spoke about it on the podcast for a half a year. I know, I'm excited about this because you can borrow it.

That's going to be my guinea pig. Yeah. I'll take it away with us so you can use it. Hopefully it works over there. Oh yeah, because people say that actually, don't they? With the plugs it. Or is it America? Yeah, it should be fine.

I'm sure, but that's exciting. I'm ready for the bounciness. I will let you all know how I get on with that. because I do feel like that will be good for me. I do think I will get along with the air wrap and make more of an effort. I think you will, because I have to agree,

the hot brush just doesn't do it. Well, the hot brush is great for me, but I don't think it's good for my hair. No, I don't think it is either. Yeah. I think it's a drying tool, as in... Yeah, it dries the fuck out your hair. It does.

And I can tell as well a little bit. Anyway, so that's the recent purchase yesterday. So when we stopped recording last season I went to New York Dinty And I did a Sephora hall And I was gutted because I couldn't come and tell you guys What I bought So I'm going to tell you some stuff that I'm loving

My makeup bag does need a bit of a A bit of a freshen up to be fair Lip products is something that I'm desperate I don't like my lip liner anymore I don't think it suits me Oh you need new that products Yeah I've been using the morphy sweet tea lip liner And I used to love it but I don't think it suits

My skin tone anymore So that needs to get ditched I love my I don't know what the lipstick's called now Shandikai lipstick in Sari Rose perfect but the liner with it not so sure What about you know

I just did the good old Peltock Yeah maybe I always found that a bit more pinky for me Yeah it's about pink So I bought in Sephora A few little things I don't think I had them all with me here But this was a few months ago now

God So I bought the COSAS Conceiler I'd heard great things about it I do think I maybe bought the line to show them what I needed but I think you can get it in space NK now. You can because I ordered it a couple of months ago and I did get a shade darker than you and it's perfect. Is it and you like it?

I love it. I think it's really good. Oh perfect. But I will apologise for not agreeing on this in the past when we spoke about makeup. You do need to wet your beauty blender. Thank you. There I said it. Love that Zoe.

Because I do notice that, see if you don't you basically just wipe the concealer off I think. you do you're right so yeah i've always been a tart shape tape um stand and i still love it so much i'm 27s light medium shade in tart i think i will go back to this so you think that's better than another one no not necessarily and nars custard nars in shade custard they're my two go-to concealers but this cosas has been added to my bag and i'm liking it but as you can see just by looking at look at the difference in the shade yeah there's a big difference there so i made i made a bit of Scobria but the texture is beautiful

so I recommend that the Supergroup glow screen SPF 40 absolutely gorgeous under makeup also what a random level of SPF? Random right it's not usually 20, 30 50 yeah 40 but that's good

but that'll be an American thing they're like SPF laws or whatever are different okay but I'm just pointing up to Zoe here but this is the Becker Backlight Primer. Right, we've enjoyed that. Whoa, can you see this is the last bit ever?

That's the one that's disintended. Yes, so if anyone's got Backlight Primer at home, post it to me. Post it to win fitness because I need it. I can't bear. Somebody reach out to someone at Smashbox who bought it and tell them to bring this back out. Reformulate it to a different brand. I don't give a fuck who it is.

It was the best product ever and it makes no sense that they bought back or the Becker products, but not this. Years and years on. Yeah, someone has to do something about that. Years and years on, no one has made anything just as good. I do like some other things I've been using. Don't get me wrong for a primer. The LMS Superfood one is beautiful,

but it's just not as good. Then I bought me and Zoe, well, we both bought, the road peptide lip treatment that's been going everywhere. We got a little four-pack and a half to, don't we? We did. And, you know, influenced on social media, aren't we? We thought, oh, let's have a look. People were saying it was really good.

It is really good. I do enjoy it, yeah. It's the Haley Bieber one. And also, I think, what was the ones I got? The one that was just the plain one and then the salted caramel one. And I would be like, a flavour, but wow. It's good, isn't it? See, you know, when it just goes in your mouth like the tiny sweet bit,

sweet. I'm using eyebrows serum-wise. I'm using UK lash at the moment. I'm around two weeks in. I can't give you my full review on that yet, but I will let you know. Wait, we're using that on the eyebrows and eye. lashes, are we? I'm just using it on my eyelashes, sorry. Oh, right, okay. Because there is a brow one. Oh, is there?

And I have heard good things about that. Oh, maybe you should get that then. That really thickens your brows. My problem isn't the thickness of my brows. My problem is without tint on, my eyebrows are white. Right. And there's just not really, like, you don't get, like, that can't be changed. I mean, obviously I can get them tinted, but it's quite, it's the same in my eyelashes. It's quite hard to keep on top of that, you know? Yeah. I would need to get it done every week. But it's quite annoying because I could never just...

You know, when they've not just been tinted and you just want to pop out, I'm like, no, but I actually don't look right because it's as if I've got no eyebrows. You do have quite fair hair, don't you? Mm. Little baby hair. Another purchase I made was the...

By Mario, you'll like this. It's the blush stick. Wow, that colour looks well nice. It's beautiful. It's like a corolly... It's just so good for my skin tone, but it's similar to the Pesca by Veev blush but in like a dewy stick form.

And is that more like... Pigmented? Is that the word? Well, I'll be honest with you, the V powder one's so pigmented, but this is just... It just gives a different, more of a glowy effect than the one in it's obviously... Yeah, I think I'd prefer that to a powder, you know? You can give it a go.

So it's the Buy Mario soft coral. Gorgeous, I'm pretty certain you can get that somewhere in the UK. Buy Mario. It's that Make-Up By Mario brand. Well, maybe, well, Sephora's in the UK. know you can oh yes so of course you can so maybe on there and then last two shoutouts quickly before we move on um i bought this oh my god it's amazing patrick tar did you see people talking about this it's in like a compact in like a what's it called a compact compact and it has

the foundation and the powder but i just dab in my beauty blender into the foundation because it's sort of like a balm it is like skin i put it on my face i was like what the fuck my skin but better let me see and I got shade light for so we're putting this all over actually as how the fucking fuck do you open this? Right so and the powder's good as well

this has given me Elizabeth Arden Elizabeth Arden did you use that? No and it was the wee compact and had the foundation and a sponge and you used to put it and you used to purposely put it over your lips and then not put anything on your lips

it was foundation lips that was a trend oh my God I need to see a picture of this and I used to use was it Rimmel Mack mousse. Yes, that was the best. And you used to actually put that on your finger and let's put it on the red band. Yeah. I don't know what that was all about, but that's given Elizabeth Hardin. Well, labelled up. Leveled up. It's brilliant. And anyone that has used it knows it's so good. But I've only been using that for special occasions. I'm still

flawless filter stem. And then I'm going to talk a little bit about refi. Okay, so I've used the refi tan cream bronze. I know we spoke about it before and I've used this for years. I just feel like it's just a little bit too orangey for me now. Maybe because it's coming into the winter, I don't know, autumn, sorry, but I think I maybe need to go down from tan and go to the new shade. What do you use, tan?

Tan. I would like to try the new Veeve one. She's bought one out, cream bronzer. I know, I would like to try and just, you know, change up a bit with that. I feel like I've used that for quite a while and I do like to change it up.

But also, it's one of the ones that I'm like, how'd I know from at the end? Yeah. I don't know. Boring makeup chat, but that is the new updates for you guys. I want to tell you about. I've loved them. There's a few other things I bought but I haven't, I wasn't obsessed them so. I don't really think makeup wise. I've really

went on to anything. Oh, do you know the thing I'm loving? I haven't onto one thing new and it's literally because I got it as a sample with my space NK order as well the concealer as I just mentioned it was with that actually. I'm quite passionate with this. The red nars mascara. Oh how? Did you get a little small sample? Have you been using it for weeks? I love it. It's brilliant. I just think What's it called again? I can't remember. It's like a weird jaggy sort of tube.

Yeah, but the small one's just like a little plain like silky tube. But it's like got that thick chunky brush but it doesn't give you like chunky mascara. It just gives you like a smooth wispy lash, you know? So I'm quite passionate about that. I really do need to get the full size. And Linnaege lip sleeping mask.

Oh gorgeous. We're loving that. Yeah. However, I don't think this is a problem for that product specifically But I like using lip balm almost instead of a lip gloss More so like just day to day, you see But your lips then do rely on a bam Yeah, they do.

You notice your lips getting dry when you've not... Do you know what I mean? Totally. So maybe it is better if you just do it through the night But if you do it through the night, you wake up silky smooth. Yeah, they do. They are actually like... And I did wait it on holiday

But I think it actually burnt my lips From being honest Because it's not got like SPF in it Anyway, they've got loads of different flavours I for one have the mango And I have the grape Which is delicious Obviously not to eat

But you know what I mean And then the only other thing That I've really been using that's new And I'm not a massive fan And I'm quite late to the party with this one Is the way pomad The best of the best No I don't like it just

What? It leaves a white cast on your hair because you need to rub it and melt it in between your hands I know and I still do that and as soon as I put pressure onto my skull it's like white gel going through my hair and I did see I was watching YouTube the other day

and I did see someone recommend the V-O-5 gel and that's a bit of me because it's clear and you squeeze it out I'm going to try that do you know I will say though you don't really have many flyaways I have quite a lot of flyaways I do they're stuck to my head right now oh are they

I thought your hair's quite silky smooth and long and licious people seem to think this and someone actually asked me on my personal page because we all know where I'm at in the influencer world now but what oil I used in my hair and I have to say

I forgot to get back to them because I had to go take a picture because I couldn't remember what it was and it's the got to be one and it's got almond oil in it it's not almond oil it's argon oil and you love it? And that is quite good as well So I would recommend that we don't put it at the top of your hair, obviously, because I did do that one. Makes it a bit greasy, greasey, greasy.

Anyway, moving on from Vane Beauty stuff, is we just wanted to touch on slightly what we've been watching recently. Oh yeah? I've been watching the Tyson Fury documentary. So that and I, it's annoying me how much I'm disliking him. Yeah, I think if you keep watching it, it does get better. I think you have to probably understand that. you can't help it

oh did you no I know right there is the parts that you can tell that he's really you know changed moods or whatever and that can't be helped because he's obviously got like bipolar

and a bit of depression and all that but there's other times I'm like you are just being an asshole to her yeah I just couldn't be with someone that was like that she's so patient of a sight isn't she and she's just

she is honestly some woman I've got a lot of respect for her even followed her after that I thought I like you I want to follow you And also I'm quite here for like tackiness Yeah Like see for people like that I love it

Yeah They can't like be so tacky But also what was really funny to me As are so tight With money Yeah That's why they're rich I know but one of our children

Asked for a packet of pencils From the school like clothes shop That you get your like jumpers and that from And she asked how much to wear And the woman said to 499 She went we'll just get them for Mazda Brilliant When he's around a five on a pack of pencils

Do you know what I mean? Yeah, but she's right You can probably get a pack of pencils for a pound at ASDA I know, you watch the pounds and their pennies Watch after himself I don't know what the phrase is, but something like that And I had another thought on them And now I can't quite think what it was

Oh, that's what it was Why have they getting married three times? I don't know I really don't, I didn't get that That must be like a gypsy thing, I don't know Like they proposed to her for a third time She was just like, really? I like the ring, all right then

And there's a new ring every time as well Maybe that's something to do with this as moods You just want to just renew his vows and just tell her he loves her again And they have a wedding every time as well So I really couldn't quite get my head around this It's surely one wedding's enough Fairfox, some I mean, see if you've got

The services, the money Why not? Exactly Absolutely why not And we also have been loving the summer I turn pretty the most teenage drama show I think I've ever watched in recent years

but I'm loving it same I just love shit TV and that is like kind of shit TV I wouldn't say it's shit but it's like it's got a good storyline did you know the well we spoke about this the main woman in it is clueless everyone

if you've recognised the blonde woman in it share from clueless yeah I was since we found that I've really been like you know like aggressively staring at or trying to make the match in my head and I just can't no I can't but you did reckon as someone from the past.

And I said that's someone that I remember from being young. Yeah. Anyway, we've been watching that. Then we had it on the background yesterday for honestly. We watched actually a full season. And when I say watch, we didn't watch it. So what we're now having to do is go back and watch it again. Because we missed quite serious, like, plot-changing moments.

I was watching it. I was making some burgers for Virgin Money, which should be out this week, International Burger Day. They'll be out by now, yeah. And yeah, I had to make like 16 burgers and I ended up watching what, like four episodes of it. So it was great. Yeah, it's an easy watch. The other thing that I still watch, which I wish more people did.

Because I like to discuss the drama is Made in Chelsea. Like you just can't beat that for me. My friend Jess watches that. I'm not into that. I love it. And I like Made in Chelsea because it's moved on and they've got new people. Can I just say Zerri also watches Towie? No, this was my neck.

Can I, right, let me clear this up. Made in Chelsea, I will not make excuses for. Me and my mum both watch it. We chat about it in serious depth. And I have like strong opinions on all the cast, as you can imagine. However, the only way is Essex is only being the most recent season and only because I put it on in the background

and I'm working at home about entertainment. But then when I came round yours, I was sort of sucked into it and I was saying to you, oh, what's going on here? and you was giving me the backstory of every single character. I was like, oh, so you do watch it then. I know, but that was only from that season.

Like, we were quite far off. I've finished that now. But I've not watched a huge chunk in between. I've probably missed four or five seasons. And even though I'm watching it, why are we on season 31 of that? 31. That means, and I think they do about two a year.

So we, this has been around for nearly 16 years. Well, as time I was saying that to Zoe, I still remember my ex-boyfriend, my long-term ex-boyfriend when he lived in, I think he lived in Lincoln. I still remember watching episode one in his student flat thing with Lauren Goodyear and...

Yeah, Mark Wright, all that. Yeah, and that, I was with him when I was like 19. And I think the difference with that and Maiden Chelsea is some people are still in that, Jess. That were in it on season... Yeah. Episode one, season one.

Oh, do you know that? Is he still in it? No, he's not in it, but like James Locke or whatever his name is. And these people are 38 years old. What? Like, people are turning 40. Amy Child is back in it. Stop it.

She was out of it for the whole time I watched it and she's back. I loved her though. Was it Vajazzles? Yeah, Vajasles. People actually got them back in the day. They did. Imagine going into a salon and saying,

can you put stick on gems on my vagina? Also, I need to understand how long did they last for because what happens when your fucking pubs start growing in? I don't know. I don't know. the tragic state of affairs that was

but it was good TV original reality TV that was it was you can and beat it so we'll end that there yeah we'll end that there I had a few skincare X but we can say that for next week's bonus episode

I'll keep them hanging we gotta keep them yeah love it keep them going do you know love it right well and now's the time we'll see you next Tuesday see you next Tuesday what is it Jay oh no that was for Tuesday's episode

he said you need to start saying Comf but See you next Tuesday. Bye. Bye.
