Everything is Washable* and Other Life Lessons

Product Information

alustuseks, käisin raamatuesitlusel ja tean nüüd autori elust, sõpradest ja sellest, miks ta niisuguse raamatu kirjutas, tükk maad rohkem, kui raamatusse kirja on saanud. eelkõige kõnetas mind see seletus, et kuna ta on oma sõpruskonnas lihtsalt see inimene, kes alati kõike praktilist teab/oskab ja kõigi olmeprobleemid ära lahendab, siis miks mitte kogu see tarkus kirja panna. Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter in 2.5 is a ride or die. It’s an extremely sheer skin booster that looks great on its own on those ‘no make-up’ days, or as a priming undercoat for foundation. I would recommend it to anyone except those who are prone to oiliness. I don’t feel myself without it and nothing else comes close.”

From freezing bananas to off-season clothes, money-saving

Given life’s stresses these days, Sali Hughes’s new book, Everything Is Washable And Other Life Lessons, comes as welcome relief. I grew up with my father and brothers and was the only girl in the house, so appearance wasn’t discussed; it just wasn't a thing and I'm grateful for that. I also never heard either of my parents talk negatively or otherwise about how they looked, which I think gives you a good grounding because then beauty becomes a fun, life-enhancing thing and not a battle you're trying to win. Kitchens: Unit carcasses are much of a muchness. Good taps, worktops and fittings make it look high-end

Fashion is a subjective section, I think if you like Sali's style posts on IG you may enjoy this chapter. I’m an obsessive collector of fragrances, so I could never choose a favourite. My most worn at the moment are Lyn Harris’s Perfumer H Rain Wood, Glossier You, Heeley’s L’Amandière, Celine’s Nightclubbing, Frederic Malle’s Synthetic Jungle and Sisley’s Eau de Campagne.

Everything is Washable and Other Life Lessons (Hardback)

Affordable and also accessible, democratic beauty is really important to me. Some years ago I was at a homeless shelter in Cardiff making a documentary and, while waiting for the camera crew to set up, I saw two cardboard boxes full of toiletries. The woman at reception explained that they were for clients who might have a housing meeting or job interview and need to look presentable. I took a photo of the boxes, sent the picture to my friend [Beauty Banks co-founder] Jo Jones and said "this is crazy - we know loads of people with tonnes of product. And here are people who need product. Can't we bring the two things together?" And she said "yes, definitely". It’s so funny that the thing most couples argue about most is the one thing they tend not to discuss before getting married. They’ll talk about whether they want children or where to live but not whether they’re a spender or a saver – or if they consider the money they have as what’s in their account or what they can borrow. Generally, people don’t change in their money outlook without a brutal lesson, so talk about it early on to save a huge amount of conflict later.’ Always buy off-season, when people are clearing out their wardrobes (a coat in the summer, holiday clothes in autumn/winter). The best way of securing a wearable, high-quality designer item for a fraction of its original cost is to shop for something famously made by another designer. So instead of a Burberry or Aquascutum trench coat, look at Max Mara and APC, both of which are less frequently searched for and cost less in second-hand resale.

I have three next to my bed – Garnier Body Superfood Cream, Body Shop Avocado Body Butter (an old favourite that doubles up brilliantly as a bath cream) and Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Retexture & Renew Body Lotion, which is great if you have little bumps on your arms or flaky texture on your shins.”
