The Emma Guns Show

This episode is sponsored by Tangle Teezer and Fine and Fragile, their detangling hair brush that’s been proven to cause 5x less breakage on fine, fragile and colour-treated hair. In this episode of the podcast I'm joined by trichologist Iain Sallis (@hairmedic_uk) for a 'hair clinic' where I quiz him about the different types of hair loss and hair thinning. It's not an easy subject to untangle (excuse the pun) but Iain breaks down the causes, the solutions and a lot more besides... If you have suffered or suffer with fine, thinning hair or hair loss issues - as I have - then I hope you find this episode as reassuring and comforting as I did.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.To email me thebeautypodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Following the Bonus Episode on Fitness a couple of week's ago I've had a lot of messages from listeners about running.

Following on from Nicola Lewis' (@thisgirlcanorganise) guest spot on the podcast there's been a lot of talk in the Facebook Forum about decluttering and being more organised and I thought I'd share five, well actually six, tips that I've found to make all the difference.

I receive a lot of questions about coping with anxiety, dealing with depression and how to manage mental health so I have created an episode that directly answers all of those questions in one place.

In this bonus episode I answer one of the questions I get the most on email, social media and in person and that's 'what's your favourite beauty product?' And, in order to make it fair, it's a Top 10 covering skincare, makeup and gadgets. All of this is in my humble opinion and, I hope it goes without saying, that this episode was not produced in conjunction with the brands involved. I have not been paid to mention these products, although Elizabeth Arden did sponsor the episode with Dr Dendy Engelman back in September. These are my independent thoughts and feelings having used the products, although as a beauty journalist I am sent some of the product featured without charge.First up, my go-to hydrating skincare: Clinique Moisture Surge Supercharged Hydrating ConcentrateI started using retinol just before my 40th birthday last year.
