Yesterday we were excited to attend the launch of the UV Safety Report, published by the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for @beautyhairwelling_appg .⁠ ⁠ With the support of @thebritishbeautycouncil , the report, titled A Preventable Crisis: The Case for a National UV Safety Strategy, follows a year-long inquiry into UV safety and highlights the urgent need for a coordinated national approach to tackling the risks of ultraviolet (UV) radiation.⁠ ⁠ With melanoma cases projected to increase by 9% by 2038, according to @cr_uk , the APPG is calling for a radical shift in how the Government and public perceive UV protection.⁠ ⁠ @lesleyiblair MBE, CEO, met with industry leaders and MPs to discuss these important issues.⁠ ⁠ #BABTAC #uvsafety #skinhealth #beautyindustry #professionalbeauty⁠

@rubyhammer MBE on @stressedbutwelldressed_podcast Wow I loved this one! We discuss everything from Ruby's early upbringing in Nigeria to later growing up in London, working as a Saturday girl at Harrods and then developing and growing iconic beauty brands in the UK. Creating Ruby and Millie and bringing Aveda and L'Occcitane to the UK we go behind the scenes on her journey. Ruby shares what she learnt from a period of life where she hit rock bottom, how she recovered and what it means to be well-dressed. A multilayered, honest and moving conversation about everything from understanding the beauty industry to understanding how to truly celebrate what makes you beautiful. Ruby - thank you! Out now on the show!

Sharing a few highlights from an incredible pre-launch week… 1. My most favourite pic! All FIVE of my children seen for the first time on the ‘gram (and Lily’s bump!). Am so intensely proud of each of you - what a tribe! Am such a lucky mama. Thank you for coming to support my book press launch at @hum2n - your presence made the evening even more special. Am wearing new fave @hollandcooperclothing silk blouse body. 2. So many friends, medics, academics and more joined us - love this pic of my bestie and former brand partner @kimbuckland1 with @janepmoore and @antheaturner - what a gaggle of older-girl power!! 3. Loved catching up with the legend that is @menopause_doctor in-between her theatre tour dates (do go to see her all-age hormone ‘show’ it is completely brilliant). 4. Such a treat to record @happyplaceofficial with the mega-fab @fearnecotton - watch out for this podcast airing Thurs 23rd. She’s such a star. 5. Back in the studios to record my Inheritance Tracks for @bbcradio4 coming soon as part of Saturday Live. 6. On to my first public interview for How To Age with the brilliant @chlofox - in my local wine shop @gardnerandbeedle , love these guys, thanks for the stylish surroundings! And another great dress from @toniabuxton 7. More fun times with @brell_aa (wearing beautiful @lexylondonstyle dresses at both my events)- very happy to give a big plug for this lovely, female-founded dress brand, an absolute winner for quality and style 8. Intimate book preview event with friends old and new, @niomismart and @rubyhammer here - sharing some of the joy from the pages of How To Age… 10. Last, but def not least, a wonderful (unexpected) shout-out from the ever-generous and talented @trinnywoodall . Isn’t it all the more special when women support other women - says so much about a person’s strength of character. Love Trinny - an great example to us all.
