Hello,
How's your week been? I've mostly been keeping busy here, compiling my 2025 guide to the best affordable Vitamin C serums. You might be pleased to know that prices start from under £3.50, and you can get some amazing quality under the £20 mark.
I've also been putting together more of the upcoming Habits Challenge, which as usual will be completely free to use. That launches on Monday March 3rd, with new themes and activities every week.
Join me if you feel like making a change or two!
Oh, and there are some cracking sales, offers and freebies available this week. Have a nosey.
This week's newsletter has been brought to you by the power of Bird&Blend tea and a couple of pilfered Guylian seashell chocolates #ScoffItLikeYouStoleIt.
