Jo’s Scent Notes: @perfumerhlondon x @nigelslater A Feast 🫶 Nigel Slater is a long-time aficionado of Perfumer H, Lyn Harris’s new, post-Miller Harris fragrant venture. (Or, more accurately, I’d call it a glorious ‘adventure’.) We couldn’t be more pleased that they’ve decided to collaborate, launching a fabulous new collection 💝 A Feast’ is described as ‘A celebration for the senses’ – and that just sums it up. There are several products in the line, currently showcased in the windows of all the Perfumer H stores.

Fab Find of the Week: @cosmeticsalacarte Silk Road Collection 💝 And whoops! It’s suddenly December and parties! Parties! and we absolutely need a new lippy for glamming up purposes. If the thought of forging a path through the crowded ranks of counters in a beauty hall is just too much – too many people, too much choice - may we suggest an alternative? Our longtime favourite make-up boutique Cosmetics à la Carte is just off Sloane Square in London. Go there IRL if you need to browse without being jostled and with expert advice. Or go online and have a delightful snoop around. Our pick for a most gorgeous, soft, sheeny, suits-everyone red lipstick is Lustre Lipstick in Venetia, with a Sheer or Shimmer finish, from the new Silk Roads Collection.

We’re not going to share a beauty bargain with you for our usual Weekend Steal this Black Friday 🖤 Instead, we’re going to share something that’s really close to our heart, which is shopping locally, to support small producers, creatives, makers and shops in our own communities. (In Jo’s case, Hastings; in Sarah’s, the picturesque bit of English countryside where Dorset meets Devon and Somerset. We are both passionate supporters of the hand-made, the small-batch, the artisan. And as Black Friday has grown and grown, we’ve started to feel even more passionately about supporting smaller businesses. It’s at the very heart, meanwhile, of what Holly Tucker is doing at @holly.co a brilliant online marketplace which showcases products from a carefully-curated line-up of makers and creators, and where we’ve often bought things for friends.

Sarah’s Health Notes: The Community Café that created joy at Christmas 2023 – and their plans for 2024 🎄 When a trio of excited volunteers opened the doors of Victoria Park Community Café in Frome at 8am on Christmas Day 2023, they thought perhaps a dozen or so people might come. In fact, over the next few hours, 350 locals dropped in to wish each other ‘Merry Christmas’, chatting and milling around by a tree gleaming with baubles, the café lit by festoons of fairy lights. Led by Caroline Blake, the volunteers had been there prepping since 6.30 a.m. Now in full Father Christmas rig, they spent the day giving out hot drinks, cakes and little presents, some made by volunteers, others donations from local shops. Anyone on their own was soon drawn in to sit with families so no one spent the day alone.
