and danielle is one of the owners of doll beauty why are you here and not sam let's go straight in
there oh i'm the gobby one i'm the slutty susan of the house i can vouch for that because i've
met both of them a few times so i've known dan and sam for like four years now for a while and
this is the first time you two have met in person yeah so we're insta huns yeah aren't we we're
insta friends yeah but i've actually used doll beauty which is um dan and sam's brand for i
would say about six years does that sound about right the first i know how cute is that
the first product that i ever had from doll was that highlighter duo was that like your first
product that got you that was the viral product that was what everybody was using yes and i
remember i sent i put it on instagram years ago and i sent it all my friends said you have to buy
this highlighter yeah and it was like a bronzy highlighter and a pale one and you've it's still
in the collection i use it all the time and it lasts you like a year i've got the what's it called
i've got the one that's the lighter one and it's round yeah but it came as a two on my eyelids
today oh it's the best yeah um so that's when i discovered doll and then i just like fell in love
with it every product that i bought i was obsessed with yeah and then on an off chance i met dan and
and i was like oh my god i'm obsessed with your brand fango um and it's it's gone from there
and you were a model for us darling i was a model oh my god for that she was the valentine's
campaign they believed in me oh my god i remember now yeah see i am as always and later to the party
yeah um i get told what to use and then try it and i remember actually when you first posted it
and i'll be honest i've not really heard of it and i was a bit like doll beauty yeah what is this
but i thought well she likes it must be good then i remember you doing the photo shoot
and then we've gone from there and your favorite product is the lip liner yeah so i'm a more
although they have all different shades i like a heavy lip don't i like a brown lip a dark lip
um like a i like matt i'm not into really a gloss other than a bit of karma because it's not on it
i'm not a glossy it's not for me um so their lines whenever i post them everyone's like
what lip combo have you got literally always so for me that's my like and it's so much more
affordable mate do you know how much i lose my fucking lip liners like i lose them everywhere
i go and then i find them in pockets so pigment is amazing expensive some of them are ridiculous
and they're not as good either and you've done honestly you have done so so well listen we're
not just blowing smoke up your ass no if we didn't think that we just wouldn't have you here we pick
who comes on
so we just wouldn't
have someone shit
I can't believe in me
it's my favourite podcast
ever
she has to say
something nice back
ever ever ever
you know I'm always
I've been from the beginning
yeah you have
do you know the other thing
that I like about Dan
and one of the reasons
that we wanted you here
you and Sam
they are girls
girls
and it's not just
a fake girls girl
like genuinely
whenever we do anything
you're there to support
straight away
like we've never even
met in person
but like we'll share
everything we'll comment
and we do the same back
and it's just
it's that nice
genuine
100%
helping other women
which is what we spoke about
on last week's show
that some women
aren't like that
no
but you are
but you are
so that's why you're here
so tell us
from the start
like what happened
what's your background
where did you go to college
like tell us
I didn't go to college
because I don't think
any makeup artist
these days
has been to college
have they
does anyone go to college
anymore
I think
they still do
or like a makeup academy
but I didn't
I just fell into it
like by chance
so
I'd got sacked
off the cruise ship
so that was number one
what did you do
lovely
I was drunk at work
shut up
I'd been on
I'd been to Mexico
what did you do
I was on the tequila
and then I got back
to work
six o'clock
drunk at work
me and my friend
got breathalyzed
off you go
I love it
this is the
and at the time
you can imagine
oh my god
this was what I wanted to do
I wanted to travel the world
like
and you got pissed
and I got pissed
story of my life
yeah
okay
okay
let myself down
you know
had to get escorted
onto the plane
by security
because I was on
an American visa
so you have to make sure
you leave the country
honest to god
I was
it was traumatic
at least you were with a friend
I like you even more now
she wasn't on the same
she'd gone back to Scotland
so we were split
so we split up
so anyway
we got back
I thought it Peru too
don't
don't
that's what they must have been thinking
when I was there
you only had a bit of tequila
fuck's sake
I know
but everything happens for a reason
so I'd
I'd left my fella
and I'd gone on the cruise ships
to leave him
and I'd come back
to live with my nan and grandad
and then I got a job.
We've all been there.
To move back in.
Got a job at Harvey Nichols.
I live in Chester.
Harvey Nichols is Manchester.
But it was the only job
that I could find at the time.
But like I said,
everything happens for a reason
because that's where Sam was.
So I was like
counter manager of Steeler.
You were aware of it?
Remember Steeler?
Yes!
Oh my God,
that mascara was amazing.
And I bet you wore
banana lip gloss
and space and cake.
Yes, I love.
So I got a job on Steeler.
Sam was there and then I was doing makeup for Steeler and then makeup at home so I used to just
like drive to people's houses do makeup whatever and it was at the time when there was no what
nobody was doing makeup no people didn't want to spend money on it it was just it wasn't a thing
yeah looking back at my makeup pictures I can't believe they paid me for it I know you don't like
a lot you'd definitely wipe me off I'm telling you now so um so yeah so I'd met Sam and then
eventually like i just talked sam into starting a lash brand because i didn't really want to buy
lashes they were like 25 quid at the time and what was it shuamera used to sell the lashes
and they were like 25 quid yeah they were amazing though and you'd pay for the lashes and get them
put on in the shop yeah this was it i forgot all that so it was an amazing vibe in harvey
nichols by the way the girls were all like us and it was the same everyone was girls girls and we
had the best time ever and then so means I stayed really working for Steeler right till I could
stop yeah I was still at doll and I still work for Steeler um and then that was it really me and Sam
just set up the brand we didn't think oh my god we want to be the next Huda Beauty or yeah we just
literally it was just a little side earner yeah because I'm like Del Boy
that was it and then eventually I left my job and then went like that and what was the moment
when like you thought oh my god this is going to be our business like did a celebrity post
there was quite a few Jodie Marsh oh she liked our lashes oh but you know like I'm a massive
Katie Price fan yeah oh my god yeah we are yeah I really I love her and then that for me when she
wore our makeup I was like right this is it I've made it I think that's where I heard about doll
from actually from katie price yeah so um that was that and then just really at the time when
we first set our website up we didn't 700 quid we made at the time on the first night and that
was 70 lashes and really when instagram wasn't that big so how did you celebrate and we had the
no way out like bloody hell how did you do it then if instagram wasn't that big how did you
how does somebody someone out there wanting to start something think i think i want to do
eyelashes what how what do you do the makeup clients isn't it and then chester is a community
as well where they support them yeah it's like liverpool they're so exactly do you know who's
so supportive as well um sophia bailey oh she's my best friend she is she used to work on a cruise
ship sophia was in we were in the same shop so i had a little do you know melissa that she does
my nails she's got dark hair you will know because she knows sophia maybe you got sacked before that
Me and Soph had the same shop.
She was in our shop doing the lip filler.
She is a girl's girl.
Really nice.
She's amazing.
I love her.
She actually told me to tell you about a duping white company.
Oh.
The Espar one.
She said to say.
I'd seen her in Zara the other day.
She's lovely.
I love Soph.
So you think I'm going to make lashes.
You make them.
And then were you just selling them to your makeup?
I don't get how all of a sudden people knew about it.
It's literally Chester.
So obviously we were putting doll lashes on our Chester people.
They were all sharing it, talking about it.
Right, okay.
and then it just went from there
right literally word of mouth
word of mouth
then Instagram
so that we were like
one of the first
first lash brands ever
so it was like
you couldn't buy lashes
apart from like Chelsea lashes
or Shu Uemura
or
and they were like
mink really expensive
£30
so it just
not many styles
not many styles
but don't forget
we had our Harvey Nichols girls
as well
and they're telling everyone
then we've got the Chester
and it just
that was
that was just it
I'm just as shocked
as anyone else
to be honest
I've got imposter syndrome
I'm like amazing
we're asking
I don't know
I just, I don't know, really.
I just got here and here we are.
It's just, it just went from there.
And then it was like people like Mitchell were all starting out.
Oh, we love him.
He is, he's amazing.
He's an amazing guy.
He deserves everything that he's got.
He's supported brands from the beginning.
Isn't it weird how like, that's what I'm saying,
like a small group of people,
especially in Manchester, actually,
like have all done so fucking well.
I think he's from Bolton.
It's all the same area.
Yeah.
And do you know what that shows you?
like mitchell page louise ariana atjar that does mars you girls are doing doll like and you know
what's wild isn't it you can see that just by some nice people yeah helping each other being genuine
everyone can blow up there is space for everyone yeah and you can all help each other it doesn't
need to be like there's no competition you're not having one everyone helps everyone fucking wins
And this is what people, and especially females, I feel like are missing a little bit.
You don't have to hate.
Like, if you support each other, you'll do even better.
A hundred percent.
So when was that?
Like 10 years ago you started?
No, 2016.
So it's seven years ago.
So that blew up quick then.
Yeah, it was, yeah, really.
Because that was six years ago that I bought the highlighter.
So when did you move from lashes to actual makeup?
And how do you make that move?
How do you, tell me how you pick stuff and make stuff.
so a secret that nobody talks about is there's a show yeah this is a secret so there's a show
called Cosmoprof right and it's like based all over the all over the world and they have like
manufacturers from all over the world in one space so it's like a trade show did you go recently
yeah sorry but we used to just we used to go to every single one of them just to waste money we
used to go Vegas Dubai you know just to why not just for a trip I'm like oh let's go Cosmoprof
put it on the business
yeah put it on the business
yeah
so Cosmoprof is where
all your manufacturers are
so you have
Italy
you've got Turkey
you've got China
you've got everybody
in one space
and that's where you find
all your makeup suppliers
and things like that
people are gonna
they'll be like
you give us
oh for fuck's sake
Sam's gonna be like
you just
shut up
why do I have to tell everyone
but I just think
it's no big deal
there's no competition
there's no competition
yeah yeah yeah
you know you don't need to worry
so you went and tested out
the products and you're like
we love this
let's brand it
yeah well we
no we manage we we make our own so we make the mold for things right um if we want something
that we just explain what we want the colors and different things like that and then we make the
mold and the packaging of the mold like this yeah you can white label it which is what you've just
said you just put your yeah your logo on it or you actually your colors are always so like
i feel like you've got a color palette doll it's well it's ours it's yeah which isn't
It's what we like.
What we were doing originally
is building our makeup bag, yeah.
And then you try it.
Do you ever try something and think,
it's not right, that needs to go back and change it?
Yeah, a lot.
And do you try it on yourself
and then throughout the day think,
this is not staying well enough?
It's not good, yeah.
We didn't used to,
but we now do market research
so we get a load of people,
like different skin tones.
Perfect.
And we'll get everybody together
or we'll send it to all our influencers,
get them to give us a little bit of feedback.
So we bring the family,
we bring the doll family
and get them involved why did you because one of my favorite products stamp was the tan the tan
mousse this tan mousse is the bane of my life it was honestly one of do you not remember i used it
for years it came in a little pink like can yes and i yes love it because it what i loved about
that tan was i could put it on and it'd give me an instant tan but and a guide but it would develop
No smell.
No smell.
Literally, a nice sweet smell.
Yeah.
Why did you get rid of my tan?
That's beautiful.
This game fucking beats me.
It started another,
so basically another brand came for us
to sue us for the name of Doll Beauty.
Luckily, if I had just started this brand on my own
without Sam,
we're two different people.
She's like you, I'd say,
and I'm like you.
She is by the book,
so she's gone through everything.
That was like me copywriting stuff.
I've done it all
she had no clue
when we started
she was like
alright we need
I was like
I'm shocked
this is what I was like
I was like
Sam whatever
that's what I'm like
whatever
you do that
and I'll do my thing
so luckily
she had us like
bam bam bam
she'd got every name
like
but she didn't do
Dol Tan
oh no
now this brand
sounds like
Dol Tan
can you
can you
shmeesh
I can't say it
I can't
shmeesh
I've got a story about him
anyway
we're going off
sounds like
sounds like
Gold Tamer
Schmaltzman
yeah yeah
so basically
they've come at us
you know
I know what it is
I know
yeah
no
everybody says that
it's not
it's um
so
she's massive in America
apparently
and she's just come after us
whatever
so we've
we've had to change the name
but then when we've gone back
to the manufacturer
from before
the price of the tin can
has gone
massive
stupid stupid like ridiculous we wouldn't even be able to like wouldn't be worth and you want
to make it available to all your girlies and you've got to do when you when you're looking
at a price as well you're not just selling it off your website 100 profit or whatever you've
got to think of all your retailers somewhere else percentage they take a lot yeah all they all do
really it's worthwhile being there but they all do take a big percentage so you have to take that
into account so anyway we've changed manufacturer we've had that much trouble with it i'm thinking
Do I even want it to be here?
You don't want to do this anymore.
It's been about two years now, hasn't it?
It's two years, yeah.
That I've missed out on my tan.
Actually, this is not about you.
So, right, so the tan is back and it's better.
The tan is back.
The tan is, it's being made in the UK,
but the packaging in the UK isn't as good as what it is overseas.
Right.
So we've had to source that from overseas and then bring it here.
Wow, this is much more complicated.
It's a lot, honestly, it is a lot.
And Ashley just wants a fucking tan.
Yeah.
So do I.
I'm so excited to use your tan.
I don't want to go through this.
Yeah, but you're going to love it.
What kind of tan is it then?
Can you tell us?
Yeah, it's in your box.
It's in your box, isn't it?
Yeah, but...
It's dark.
It's not out, though.
It's not out.
It's not out, out, is it?
Not out, out.
No, but we can have it.
You're going to be the first.
Oh, my God.
Yes.
So exciting.
So, yeah, it's two colours, medium, dark, for now.
We are going to expand on the range, but I just thought,
just let's get this out first.
It smells gorgeous.
It smells like holidays.
We have changed the scent a little bit,
and we had to take out caviar, so we are a vegan brand.
Right.
That's the only ingredient we've talked about.
Stunning.
I'm excited.
So you spoke, Dan, about the tan incident.
And obviously that must have been like,
I feel like if me and Lauren got a legal letter,
we've been very close, but we've never actually had one.
Was there any points where you were like,
oh, this is a headache.
Let me just get my wage from Harvey Nichols.
Yeah, I don't want to do this anymore.
I don't want to do this anymore.
Or do you just power on through?
Power on.
It's just, the thing is the benefits to like owning your own brand
is a lot more than a few stresses.
and I think these
you learn so much as well
and you bring so much
from all these
each time
each time
and I would never
I'd never say
I'm giving it up
it's like
it's your baby
it's my baby
yeah it's mine
and Sam's
we're obsessed with Dawn
we love it
you love it
and you just love
the whole thing
don't you
I mean
I think you do learn
like we certainly
since starting the podcast
have had certain things
that have happened to us
and at the time
it's really bad
but we've learnt
from every single time
and that won't happen again
yeah
it's a learning
you learn
the whole thing
yeah
and you've done
absolutely amazing
like the pros i guess what are the pros of having your own business we we have all our friends and
family working with us as well so that's i know i've been there before and the vibe in the warehouse
is amazing unreal like and the salon you've not been to the salon no we keep saying it's me it's
me they're all they're all our people so that's for me when i go to work or if i work from six
in the morning doing a live then i have to go and do something else so late you can trust them all
as well 100 people say don't employ people you know because it's awkward i disagree because they
work so much harder for you because they love you so much and like and honestly i think you can only
say don't employ people that you you know if you're not going to employ them and treat them
well if you're treating them fairly and well and they're treating you fairly and well then then why
not so you work with like your friends and family but you also you do work how much you work with
influencers massively that is there you don't that's yeah instagram is that isn't it so there's
a lot of makeup brands like you've got like your l'oreal and stuff like that that will spend
shit loads on say a naomi campbell to do a one-off campaign that's airbrushed the shit out of sorry
l'oreal no shade but do you see what i'm saying whereas i feel like you girls you were one of the
first brands to actually send me products yeah literally and i was like had like a few thousand
followers yeah but come on so grateful i used to ask her what do you recommend like anything she
puts on i buy i'm skin i try everything yeah she does you do loads of influencer marketing and you
were one of the first brands getting on the tiktok hype yeah as well we were we weren't one of the
first we came in a little bit later so we've come in a little bit like we are catching up i'm not
gonna lie it is but we've got it now yeah tiktok saved our life like massively and mitchell said
that as well saved all of us but it saved us particularly because it's very creative space
isn't it amazing the fact that you've got the shop bc yeah you can sell it sell your product
i've watched yours and you you are made to sell yeah i love being on there and you're very funny
Karen I love you babes
we were like
oh my god we were
carnage when we did that one for Karen
how tiring was doing it
we were carnage
we were doing impressions in the middle of it all
of wearing lineker and putting caps
we just lost it
I bet their views that day
it was so much fun
now Dan we love a bit of tea
we fucking love a bit of tea
so I
work with a few brands
and I always get
close to them because you know what we're like
gobshites having
a natter down the phone not about work
and always the first question
first question
nightmare influencers
you have to say the name we can't
just any stories of like
where
they've done something because I can guarantee
every brand I've worked with has got
an influencer
oh my god it's me
she's gonna be I'll be I'll be honest right I I always see the good in everyone so if someone's
a diva I'll make a joke out of it I'm not asked honestly that's the way I am I force the niceness
out of everybody no one can be bad around me so 90 no I'd say 100% of the time I get on with
everyone and do mates with them we don't really have a nightmare one particular diva did though
this is quite funny this wasn't me my best my best mate Steph who works in the salon who's
She is the salon manager.
Blonde Steph.
Yeah.
Really lovely girl.
Bubbly, gorgeous.
She was on the Tyson Fury programme.
We send her everywhere.
Yes.
Because she is a personality
you've never met anyone like her.
I know, she's lovely.
She's insane.
So we sent her,
she was eight months pregnant at the time.
So this is quite recent.
Yeah.
No, so this is his first child.
Ah, okay.
There was an event
and there was a high-end TOWIE star.
Okay.
I feel,
because I love her anyway,
but she...
I know who it was.
Yeah, you'll know who it is.
and she went to do this person's makeup but she ended up with her the whole day being a PA
you know straight away yeah but but like just doing everything for yeah and then you should
i bet she's going come here with me babes and just give me a hand with this but you know what
no shade again because she's just looking fabulous and who doesn't want to hang about
with her for the whole day
exactly I will
but Steph was like
oh Dan
should I make
mumps pregnant
go on
I was like
just stay
just stay
you know
but she's
again no shade
and I'd love to be able
to sit here and say
they're all
you know
but I don't ever
I think there's
there's so like
we get on well
with influencers
yeah
we've got a good
relationship I think
yeah
and I guess you wouldn't
you kind of get to know
somebody through their
Instagram and you probably
wouldn't want to work
with someone that you
thought was a twat
anyway so if you thought
you're a twat
you're not going to send them yeah i think that it's like especially smaller brands and you've
probably got this advice to give to girls um whether it's clothing whether it's makeup hair
products anything about being selective because at first you are just going to do gifting and it's
going to be a i'll send it you out and if you don't use it you don't use it if you do you do
but this is where lauren and i and it really pisses me off i get messages every day of small
female owned businesses and they say can i send you i bought out for example recently a makeup
brush cleaner i didn't respond because i'm not gonna use it and post about it and stuff like
that and that's what pisses me off is that these brands then they get upset you know i sent them
x amount of product and they didn't post about it see we've always this is the i've always said
this like we've had pr companies in the past like you need to chase these people you need to message
if i send a box i do not chase that no you don't like if they don't want to post it they won't like
i'm not going to be that person i don't want to be that brand that's known for like chasing someone
and pushing oh my god we've had that and we will never do exactly i won't do it but you know you
were talking about the katherine tildesley yes do you know what i thought that was really bad
of that that company we did we could not saying it's bad maybe she felt like i don't know maybe
she felt like i shouldn't have to give you that for free but calling around if somebody promotes
us for free like that that is that that is gold for us as a brand i got a lot of shit on that yeah
we did we both did i got more i said more but we both got shit on that particular video and we
don't normally people saying don't agree with you here girls which is fine no we don't have to but
that one i we actually got a lot of shit for that people saying they didn't agree with our opinion
that people shouldn't get free stuff but I still stand by what I said then which is I don't think
it was that bad and you're a brand you're coming from the brand's perspective I would have made
that cake in an hour I swear I'd have had Steph because she obviously the face of the brand I'd
have had her warming them all up I'd have had dancers with the cake because for me it's just
any opportunity if someone wants to come to the salon for a full free day I give it up I'm like
wow what we're going to get from this is amazing and this is who's like the most famous I think
she actually got a good idea
have you had a Kardashian
you've had a Kardashian
I've done a little mix
I've done Perry's makeup once
oh wow
she's probably the most famous

it's got iron
oh my god
just so
this is
oh god
I couldn't go further
Right, should we start with that one?
I didn't bring you Red Temptation
because you said it was a slag's perfume,
which is a copy of Mason Francis.
So I got you instead.
Sorry, slag.
It was me that said that.
I used to wear that.
I stopped wearing it.
No, I wear it still, the slaggy perfume.
Right, this one is Zerjoff.
I just twatted myself.
You know the Zerjoff Ascento, the purple bottle.
So this is the Amber from Zara.
Oh my God, that's absolutely stunning.
so this is a zara perfume amber fusion yeah so 11.99 instead of 270 i've heard about this
tatcher yes yeah the rice what's it called the tatcher skin cream yeah it's dewy but it's the
yes the dewy it's the purple one talk us through this one little pamper so apparently ingredient
for ingredient it's the same and this is what tiktok so expensive but i love it but this is
fabulous right so this is the bliss i'm holding it up for explosion super rich moisturizer and
that is a dupe of the touch i need a moisturizer i'm buzzing over oh my god i know what this is
for yeah creme de la mer yeah how about exactly the same you are the best do you know who bought
this so the creme de la mer um original cream is like 160 quid for the smallest i do love it when
your skin's in need yeah this is the exact same so it's euthymol avine so you can get it from
boots and it's called sickle sickle fate is it sysyl fate sickle fit sickle cell anyway there
you go um and yes it is meant to be the best and i recommended it to poppy bayliss and she used it
and she said it's the same i'm excited to try that so it helps to replenish the skin's moisture
barrier we talk about moisture barrier a lot it's very important what's this one i know you're not a
fan of um primark skincare you did no no we just said i know i know but please try because i have
been using it and i use it usually use a bargy vitamin c i'm obsessed with it 120 it's expensive
i can't use this anymore so that's a 10 vitamin c it is a little bit less than the percentage i
I think the Abagge is 13.
Yeah, but it's not much.
It's a nice one.
£7.
I'm holding it up for anyone that's watching on TV.
Prime Arnie.
Oh, my God, I'm really, I love vitamin C
because I get a lot of pigmentation.
It's brilliant for that.

and think it's a £2.50.
Oh, this is...

what that's my favorite mascara how do they get away with this it's so cheeky aldi and primark

for the maybelline sky high yeah we love that we love that i mean three pounds it's even cheaper
than the cheap one the cheap one and is it the same same same shot they don't change a single
thing do they this is the how do they get away with this this i'm excited charlotte tilbury
really the charlotte tilbury everyone talks about the um charlotte tilbury serum everyone talks
about that it's stunning isn't it beautiful absolutely gorgeous so this is the revolution
pro miracle serum supercharged skin and it's a glow enhancing serum which is a dupe for
charlotte tilbury i'm holding it up for anyone that wants to say oh then you've got your roller

into Dolphin Makeup and they say I'll have blue and they go
out with brown smoke anyway. Yeah, do you know what I mean?
When people come to me for lip blush, they go
I'll have this and I think, no you won't. No you won't.
You'll have what I want. You can't say that.
I can. Absolutely can't say that.
Come to me for lip blush and ask for red. It's not gonna
happen. Aw, damn. Thank you.
You're very welcome. I'm so excited
I've tried my best for stuff
that you haven't spoke about because you're so good
at dupes
I'm really excited
Dan you spoke before
about your 40th
because me and you were chatting and you're planning a really
big trip for your 40th
no you've planned my trip
when she's pregnant
she's really fun because she's got nothing to do
she like plans other people
she's like there, there, you need him
you need her, you need this, you need that
I can't believe you are turning 40.
You look absolutely...
I can't believe that.
Oh, girls.
You know how he gets you everywhere.
Babe, no, you look amazing.
Oh, thanks.
You really do.
You've not got a line.
You've been very honest about plastic surgery.
Yeah.
And your weight loss surgery.
Yeah.
I had no idea about that.
So I was 16 and a half stone.
Okay.
But I wasn't, I've not, I wasn't bigger when I was, I've yo-yo dieted.
Right.
So it's tough.
like i was literally going out and people were saying when are you due and things like that
chester's a small place i know but i felt worse for them you know yeah yeah yeah a bit too much
you know it's like the worst thing but for me i i praise them girls that rock curvy yeah i praise
you and you look amazing on the beach by the way they're the girls that i'm looking at a hundred
percent it's all about confidence it's about confidence but it wasn't for me you didn't have
i didn't have the confidence i didn't want to go out i felt everybody was like talking about me
because I put so much weight on.
Why did you put the weight on, Danni?
Because I was working seven days a week,
and I was just eating shit.
So I'd finish, like,
I used to do about 25 clients a day,
you know, on a Saturday.
In between, go for a maccies.
Me and Sophia worked together.
We'd get a chippy.
We'd eat the whole kebab shop.
Just to give yourself a bit of happiness, isn't it?
I just love eating.
I still do now.
I have that through me.
I'll talk to you about that in a sec.
So this is, I put that reel on my Insta.
So that's, yeah.
Fuck.
yeah so I was 16 and a half stone so I made the decision well you don't even yeah that and I felt
honestly I felt so depressed like even if someone had invited invite me somewhere I'd be anxiety for
weeks I was happy and we would never think that so you were unhappy so it's not about the site
you were unhappy I just I wasn't confident and I wish I would have been but my clients I'd see
in the city and I'd love I'm fine I'm in my space there but if I was to go out be invited to a
christening or a wedding that was it i was so stressed so anyway i made the decision i wanted
a gastric sleeve right um i'd looked into it i'm quite an impulsive person anyway so i probably
booked it the day after that i found out about it i didn't read anything which you always say
to make sure it's such a big operation i thought it was going to be bigger than what it is i was
i was i was actually complaining thinking they're not contacting me enough they're not looking after
me enough but when i realized it's not it wasn't that bad okay so yeah so i booked it so gastric
sleeve I don't know if you're like listeners know like it's just they it's called a sleeve
because they take away like two-thirds of your stomach yeah um so anyway so you can't eat which
I needed because or drink don't you get pissed really quickly we me and Steph because Steph's
had the same my best friend she we call it gastric piss like gastric yeah you have like a tiny bit of
wine and it's yeah it goes to your head because you've not got any food but I didn't listen to
anything they told me because i'm that type of person someone gives me the rules like they give
me a sheet of what i'm to do after i just went on whatever absolutely very me not very ashley
but big mistake because when they said about my hair my nails i had no hair i had like i had
extensions and i had a mullet because of the nutrition and you think i was trying to eat good
things what's small of it but it doesn't matter and every single person i know that's had the
gastric sleeve as the same's happened no matter and steph did everything by the book she's like
you but i didn't and the same things happened so i had no hair like my nails were just breaking
and is that just because you're not eating enough nutritious you just can't you just can't eat so
even if you even if i was to blend soup with all the great nutrition nutrients in doesn't matter
i just don't know what it i don't know what it is maybe it's just the operation i don't know
maybe it was that so anyway i lost i went down to ten stone um i'm trying to find a turkey surgeon
to do it again
because I've
got to get through it
I think you stretch it
get through it
what
I think you can
stretch your stomach
have you seen
that you can take
those tablets now
though that
this
they
and they blow up
yeah and they blow up
in your stomach
to like the size
of a golf ball
I need this
like the balloon
and then you take
a tablet
and it goes down
and you poo it out
oh right okay
I mean I've made it
sound really easy
it's probably not right
but I think
four years ago
right
four years ago
okay
yeah
so you went down
then what and then have you up and down since you do eat they tell you you're not supposed to have
fizzy drinks they tell you you're not supposed to eat certain foods i've done everything that
they've oh fantastic then no i'm just i can't follow rules i've never been able to do that
since school i think it's adhd or something if someone tells me something i can't do it
it's just it's mad so yeah so i'm looking for a surgeon that's gonna do it again if that's
possible i don't know but you don't need i don't you don't need it i have put weight on
a little bit
but can you not just
go on a diet
she doesn't want to
I go on
it's the best thing
that's come out of this
I'm into my fitness
I love going to the gym
I love it
but can you not just
I love
I like a lasagna
and then I like
a burger
and you love your cooking
as well
and I don't
and I'm cream
and cheese
I am with you
on your first one
right
I am not with you
on your second
second is a bit naughty
second is naughty
and you
because you can't be arsed
first I'll allow you
second you need to
shut your mouth
yeah no no you'll see me with that hat on it's like for fuck's sake not again not again
surgery how have you told have you it doesn't matter i'll tell you right so you had that done
have you had any other surgery yeah so i've had my blephs i've had my nose i've had my boobs done
three times i've had um i had a tummy tuck yeah i had lipo i had the worst bbl i got scammed by
harley street clinic i remember that they were on tv when i took the bandages off and there was
nothing to change it was horrendous and the reviews are really bad for that surgeon me and
you looked together didn't we yeah then you think harley street oh everyone thinks that it's just a
name it doesn't mean anything it's just a name so yeah i've had that and i am going to go back
for a little bit more lipo tell me your worst one that you wish painful not just like you wish you'd
not is there any wish you'd not had not the bbl anything else anything you wish you hadn't had
happy with it all happy with it all yeah there's none are you glad you did it all glad really glad
the pain though with a tummy tuck if anyone's looking at it don't think it's not going to be
painful because it was the worst really i've ever had and you need to prepare for that don't you
need to prepare for that because a lot of people said oh no it wasn't so bad or and it was it was
horrendous scary but look if you want to do it and you love it then all you do is you make sure
that after the surgery you have the right things in place and you have you know sufficient rest
someone to look after your children and just don't just take it seriously there's a few people i
need to ask one more thing you've done stuff abroad yeah turkey i'm saying i'm pro i have my
boobs on there and we talk about that in i think we're quite fair with it we talk about the fact
there's good and bad i think that's everywhere though isn't it yeah and i just think the
legislation and the rules over there aren't the same so they can get away with it more so we speak
both my boobs are from turkey tell me happy with the stuff that you had in turkey so happy that
they corrected
a UK surgeon
mine did that
that's what they did
that's what they did with me
and I think
they do a lot of correcting
they corrected
a mess of mine
mine was terrible
with my boobs
my boobs were terrible
and do you know
do you know what
like there is a language barrier
there is certain things
that aren't in place
but really
when it comes down to it
I think
they're doing it that often
if you go to a really
reputable clinic
they're doing it that often
you've got to be good at it
obviously I
I did research for Turkey
yes you must
you must
and I did go with people
with somebody that i know a few people that have been to them before yeah um which yeah i'm going
back to them it's getting more expensive over there well they will be pretty much the same
price now isn't it some of the surgeons are like la prices yeah oh my god the nose done the nose
surgeons are so expensive unbelievable yeah she had that was just the last minute like
yeah she looks gorgeous she's beautiful anyway but she's she's had a nose done by like he's like a
major surgeon
there like
he's really
he's like
how much are we
talking
like 20 grand
it was about
I think about 15
fucking
wow
jeez
that is
it's on your face
that's like
everyone is saying
that turkey
for rhinoplasty
you can't
I agree
I've seen the most
amazing work
I am happy with my nose
for me
yeah
yeah
but I just think
you always want
some
you always want more
like a look
and an answer
I'll just do it again
so
we're gonna do a quick fire
we've chatted shit
for far too long
oh we could sit
with her all day thank you um okay worst date story could be someone else if it's not a worst
date story for me it's for them oh yeah yeah because i met two guys me and my best friend
met two guys on holiday this is well cringe i can't believe i mean come on come on no it's really
bad because i am the least beggy person ever but we'd met them on holiday we had two weeks with
them and they lived in glasgow we lived down here and then um i met them at the airport when they
were coming home i think that's cringe what you didn't yeah so they we went home first and you
went and met them from the airport but i had a denim jacket saying andy's girl on the back
you didn't mention that we were off at the airport were you obsessed with him yeah
no but my heart's beating that fast because i am the least i know i feel sick i feel sick i just
got excited i was in the holiday romance mode there's nothing like a holiday romance
i actually moved up there after this and i don't you know looking back did he know you
were moving there but you know when you're a kid and you're like oh not a kid but like a
yeah you know and i thought oh i know you two look at me different now you're looking at me
really differently let's never tell anyone that story oh my god that is nothing don't put it on
take it out listen there's nothing compared to some of the stuff you asked the next one right
we talk about this quite a lot um and if you thought that was embarrassing
what's the fart that haunts you right i know you look at me i think you do as you look at me and
think i'm the type of girl that fart yeah you look fancy what's his head on the thing you look
as far from that as you could go i do i would never if i farted in front of my fella i would
want to move out yeah so you hold your farts and hold them in and i'm the girl that runs
down to hotel reception yeah and says i've left something there and does it just do you remember
rebecca lose when she was on the telly and she farted in front of calum beth yes that's just
i just think it's disgusting and it's not right and men hate it men hate it and well he obviously
does it he's obsessed james thinks it's absolutely hilarious but you don't find men like that a lot
He's like the male version of me.
