About this deal

I haven't read a book like this before and i don't think i will ever need to read another. Sali covers a wide range of categories, this is everything you need to know to get through life from Sali's experiences. Although it sometimes felt a bit jumbled, the advice is split in to helpful categories and the index helps too.

Although the concept of the book may seem rigid, Hughes dispenses her advice with humour, and switches between the seemingly inconsequential to the big topics with ease. It would make a great gift to give to someone leaving home for the first time. 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.” My most used concealer is the Dior Forever Skin Correct Creamy Concealer in 1.5N. It’s perfection on my dry skin. But I’m currently testing Vieve’s new Radiance Concealer and I’m very impressed. It works well on all skin types. Whichever I’m using, I always start with a dab of Beauty Pie’s Superluminous Undereye Brightener underneath. It makes a big difference.”

The interesting thing is that occasionally we see flashes of vulnerability and signs of personal growth (when Sali talks about revisiting her childhood home, her father's hoarding, and her own parenting). But she (understandably) doesn't seem to want this to be a focus. In a media world where women are encouraged to mine their own trauma., this may be a wise move or possibly a decision to wait until the memoir-propre.

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".Fashion is a subjective section, I think if you like Sali's style posts on IG you may enjoy this chapter. Body cream is my desert island product, because I’d be extremely uncomfortable without it. 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.” By publishing your document, the content will be optimally indexed by Google via AI and sorted into the right category for over 500 million ePaper readers on YUMPU.

Sali Hughes offers striking good sense on: home food and drink, fashion health and beauty life and finances friends, relationships and family.From useful, everyday tips such as how to cut your own fringe and how to buy great second-hand clothing, to the less talked about, agonising questions like how to split finances with your partner and how to grieve, Guardian beauty editor Sali Hughes has advice on the big and the small, and everything in between.

Perhaps, at 44, and thus having a decent grasp on skincare, cooking and furnishing my house, I am not the audience for this book. I did frequently think what a lovely gift it would make to someone in their late teens or early 20s leaving home for the first time, but then wondered if said someone wouldn't be more likely to get their life advice from Tiktok and Youtube.
