The Emma Guns Show

We're back on a beauty theme and this episode, which is part of #apodadayinmay, is in response to the questions I've had about the makeup I use on a regular basis. After dropping a bit of a truth bomb, I go on to share not only the products I use and love, which are very kindly sent to me by brands, but the high street alternatives I wouldn't think twice about spending my own money on.

Products mentioned during the show:

BASE:

Flower Beauty Light Illusion Foundation.

CONCEALER:

MAC Studio Correct & Conceal Palette.

When I asked listeners what they wanted to hear about on #apodadayinmay a lot of requests to discuss food, diet and nutrition were sent in. I am now on the hunt for the right sort of expert to discuss things such as emotional eating, binge eating and the more complex issues around our diets and what we eat as it's a topic that deserves its own show and also the right person to contribute to the conversation.

In this episode though I'm answering the question about my favourite foods, meals and recipes with my Top 5 Easy meals...

Amelia Freer's Beef Curry.

Amelia Freer's Simple Prawn, Coconut and Aubergine Curry.

Eve Kalinik's Sweet Potato & Halloumi Warm Salad.

Eve Kalinik is also the nutritional therapist I saw when I was struggling with gut issues related to stress and anxiety. For her practice visit Eve Kalinik.

Amelia Freer's Lentil, Beetroot & Hazelnut Salad with Ginger Dressing.

Poached egg and avocado on toast - as described on the show.

The cook book I'm most excited about is Ian Haste's The 7-Day Basket: 1 Basket, 1 Week, 7 Meals.

It's time to talk books, my favourite books, in fact. This episode features those reads I have found most useful, and hope you find useful to, in the genre of self-help and self-improvement. Plus, I've included some handy hacks if you want to consume more books, but can't seem to find the time...

Update: In this episode I mentioned learning styles because, based on my own experience, I tend to be a more visual learner, but the learning style I outlined have been disputed in studies. For further reading I recommend: Another Nail in the Coffin for Learning Styles conducted by Polly R Husman and Valerine Dean O'Loughlin.

I rarely exercise without music and a great playlist can turn a good workout into a great one. In this episode I share the three different types of playlist I like to create to keep me company on my runs and during my resistance workouts. Plus, for your enjoyment, I've created some Spotify playlists for workouts that you can download/follow too.

BPM - Steady Jog - a great, pop playlist to accompany a steady, easy jog.

Crescendo Playlist - those songs that start off slow, build up and take you beyond your personal best.

Feelgood Exercise - the tracks that'll get you in your gym kit even on days when you aren't feeling the pull of the gym. I will not apologise for all the Beyonce and Gaga. 😉

As much as I've talked about having therapy on this podcast I've never explained how to find a therapist or the resources available to find out what therapy is available to you, where to find it and the different types of therapy available.

In this episode I share information that I hope is useful to anyone who thinks therapy might be a good resource for them but doesn't know where to start.

The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Welldoing.org.

UK Council for Psychotherapy.

The Samaritans.

Counselling Directory.

I've had a lot of emails and DMs from listeners asking me to share my AM and PM skincare regime so in this episode I talk about the ingredients in use in the morning and in the evening, the products I've tried and how my skin has changed since I started my new regime 18 months ago.

The products I used when I first switched:

Morning:

Skinceuticals C E Ferulic Acid. A gold-standard antioxidant regarded as one of the, if not the, best by many of my beauty colleagues.

Indeed Labs Hydration Booster. A really milky, soft and efficient hydrating booster that works AM or PM.

Clinique Moisture Surge Supercharged Concentrate. Another great hydrating gel serum. This one also contains antioxidants and I like it as a last hydrating step, if needed, under makeup.

Evening

Paula's Choice Clinical Retinol Treatment Full size - Normal skin - Breakouts" target="_blank">Paulas Choice Clinical 1% Retinol Treatment. This really is a great retinol treatment that I've seen incredible results with. Ease your way in, follow the instructions.

Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair. If needed, but a great hydrating serum that instantly quenches that dry/tight feeling in skin.
