I remember being 15 years old, walking past a fashion store that sold fur, which was surrounded by a group of shouting protesters. They handed me a leaflet covered in shocking images of mangled animals that had been skinned – and that moment was so powerful, it opened up a whole new world of thought for me. It’s what turned me vehemently anti-fur and vegetarian, both of which I still am today. But then over the years, it seemed to me that people who would hit the streets to protest for their cause gradually grew fewer – and activism became an oddly dirty and angry word. Until now. Suddenly, giving a f*ck matters again. I mean, genuinely Giving A F*ck – about animal cruelty, ethical fashion, sustainable beauty, equal pay, diversity, gender equality, (the list goes on) – is back on the agenda. And it’s being spearheaded by you. From the 82% of GLAMOUR readers who would never wear fur, to the 21% of Gen Z-ers who describe themselves as #InstaActivists, it’s your voices and your actions that are genuinely changing the world. That’s why we commissioned Marie-Claire Chappet to find out where this rediscovered passion has come from – and it makes insightful reading on p50. For this issue, our no-holds-barred attitude goes far beyond protesting. Every person we feature has learnt to speak up for themselves in their own unique way – from Alice du Parcq debating the authenticity of the Body Positivity movement (no, she doesn’t want to be told she looks great in shiny black leggings #LoveYourCurves) to GLAMOUR columnist and model Charli Howard who

Life’s about balance – plus both could earn you points at quiz night …to cough unnecessarily loudly in the toilet cubicle at work so that nobody hears the ‘plop’ …if you skip ads on YouTube, but will happily watch a vlogger talk about a new foundation for 20 minutes

…to go ‘make-up free’, but still do your brows. You said no make-up, not naked

…to casually grab a complimentary magazine from the business-class cabin as you’re walking through to economy. (And a glass of Champagne, obvs) (thanks to GLAMOUR reader @jessicarosewil)

…if you feel slightly freaked out holding your friend’s new baby. Sometimes things just get too real

…*as in, ‘Gives A F*ck’ – and in 2019, our generation really does. From marching against sexism and Brexit to starting socialmedia movements, we’re all now putting our money – and even our careers – where our morals are. But what’s turned us into next-gen activists? By Marie-Claire Chappet Illustrations Sabina Dallu

Look around you. Turn on your TV. You’re either watching The Handmaid’s Tale, or seeing state-sanctioned female oppression unfurl in real life. Your news cycle is littered with celebrities calling out high-profile sexual assaulters or getting arrested at political protests. That, or the latest reaction to Trump. Meanwhile, the influencers and celebs you follow are posting on Instagram about trans rights, mental-health awareness or the #PeoplesVoteMarch against Brexit. Woke badges of honour, from re-grammed slogans to trending hashtags, are replacing the selfie on your feed, and all your mates are, yep, #Activists, too. Psychologist Kirsten Godfrey attributes this to the growing “collective voice and power” garnered from our increased social-media and digital connectivity. “There’s a huge power in numbers. And millennials and Gen Z also have a stronger sense of identity than other generations,” she explains. “There’s a certain sense of how people want to be perceived. They want their identity to be associated with a particular cause.”

from Burberry to Bare Minerals are in on the game: going fur, plastic or cruelty free, donating to charities or creating ad campaigns that align with activist causes. “Consumers are speaking out and saying that they don’t want to buy these products,” says Sascha Camilli, 35, from PETA, on the move away from fur and leather. And cynical as it might sound, as her colleague, Lydia Smyth, 24, explains of the mounting pressure on brands: “If you’re not woke, you’ll get left behind.” Recent years have been populated by the downfall of ‘cancelled’ celebs and brands – from #MeToo allegations to controversial campaigns or comments, such as Pepsi’s advert with Kendall Jenner and Dolce & Gabbana’s monumental China gaffe. Then in January, Gillette’s viral ad taking down toxic masculinity was lauded, yet also created huge divisions. But while this collective voice empowers us, what happens if you haven’t, or don’t want to, speak up? Do you have activism #FOMO? Everywhere you step, shop or scroll is calling you out: are you woke? How woke? And that billion-dollar question: are you an activist? Before you answer, let’s take a step back and ask when did activism become, well, cool?

73% of millennial

Woke or broke

readers call themselves feminists

And we’re certainly making our voices heard. The Youth Futures 2018 report, published by The Future Laboratory, sees our generation as: “intent on a new activism-inspired agenda”– with particular emphasis on mental health and LGBTQ+ issues. Yep, we’re rebels with a cause. But, we’re also rebels with a wallet: if we don’t agree with something, we’re not just protesting – we’re not buying either. Statistics from Weber Shandwick and KRC Research show that 83% of millennials would boycott a brand for ethical reasons, research backed up by GLAMOUR’s 2019 Activism Survey, which found that 82% of readers would never wear fur. As our generation’s spending power is approximately £110billion, this social shift is having huge ramifications for businesses. So, is it any surprise that it seems like everything we consume today is loaded with political awareness? Brands

Moments make movements Let’s get one thing straight: activism is by no means an exclusively millennial or Gen-Z ‘thing’. After all, the 2017 #MeToo movement – in which women shared stories of sexual harassment online – originated from a 2006 Myspace campaign by Gen X-er Tarana Burke. Activism may have fallen out of fashion in the ’90s and early noughties, when lad culture and raving replaced

marching, but it was loud and proud before then – from ‘right on’ feminism to the civil-rights movement of the ‘60s and ‘70s. What draws a person to activism can be deeply personal. Lydia attributes her switch to veganism – and later PETA activism – with growing up next to a dairy farm: “The crying of the calves when they are separated from their mothers. It’s unbearable. I couldn’t ignore that.” For Sandy Abdelrahman, a 28-year-old activist based in east London, it was her childhood in Egypt that directly informed the causes she campaigns for today: “I witnessed a lot of human rights violations and injustices, such as female genital mutilation, which some women I know have gone through.”

Radical resistance But what makes an entire generation care more? Dr Rosalind Miles, author of the ground-breaking The Women’s History Of The World and this summer’s book Rebel Women, believes activism comes in waves, like “the pendulum of history”. So, what has swung the pendulum our way this time? “Trump is the best recruiting sergeant for feminism ever,” she says, adding that pivotal moments in history shift our conception of activism from fringe activity to mainstream. This happened just last year in Ireland, when its historic referendum on abortion laws was announced after mounting pressure on the government from various activist groups. “So many of the women who flocked to this cause had never been political before,” says Cathie Shiels, 34, the Dublin-based organiser of the successful Abortion Rights Campaign that led the #RepealThe8th movement. She is now running for election as a local councillor in Dublin as a direct result of the campaign: “It was so inspiring. I want to keep fighting to make a change.” Brexit is having a similar galvanising effect: statistics from The Prince’s Trust Macquarie Youth Index report show that 58% of young people in the UK fear for their future due to the referendum result.

wonder that we’re fighting back – with activism dominating the agenda.

Celebrity crusaders

For celebs – the age-old guardians of the zeitgeist – if you’re not woke, you’re (also) broke. Take Taylor Swift who, after being criticised for remaining apolitical during the 2016 US election, Instagrammed about the 2018 midterm elections, announcing she was voting Democrat. It caused such a stir, global headlines read: ‘Has Swift swung it for the Democrats?’ And that’s what we’re seeing in the age of the influencer. If Kylie Jenner can cause Snapchat shares to drop by £930million with a single tweet to her followers, imagine what happens when she writes about the issues she backs. PETA understands this more than most – it was one of the original harnessers of celebrity power. Its ‘I’d rather go naked than wear fur’ campaign, which started in 1994, went viral before we even used that term; roping in fashion’s biggest stars – Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington – to make not wearing fur fashionable. “We get a lot of our information to the public through celebrity work,” says Sascha, pointing out that celebrity activism is causing a domino effect among big fashion houses, with Gucci and Versace dropping fur in recent years. Lydia sees the same impact with veganism – citing the impact that vegan influencers (and former Made In Chelsea stars)

Lucy and Tiffany Watson have had on publicising the cause – with 7% of the UK population now vegan. The sisters’ combined Instagram reach is nearly two million and their vegan cookbooks, companies and restaurants have raised the vegan profile, spotlighting the ethical reasons behind it.

Click and protest Thanks to celebrity influence, activism has had a shiny new rebrand, but they’re not the only ones doing it. Millennial and Gen-Z activists are redefining not just what activism looks like – but what it means, too. The Pink Protest, an activism collective founded by Grace Campbell, 24, Scarlett Curtis, 23, and Alice Skinner, 24, embodies Gen-Z feminism with its online girl-gang approach. Their main message is that activism can take any form. “Simply talking to your grandparents about homosexuality, or recycling, or donating,” says Grace. “We want to put it out there that even little things matter.” In 2017, they worked with Amika George, the 19-year-old founder of the #FreePeriods campaign, who started a movement from her laptop in her bedroom. They organised over 2,000 people to protest outside Downing Street, successfully pressuring the government to give £1.5million to address period poverty. “There is so much one person can do, even just through social media,” says Grace. It’s little wonder their slogan is ‘The revolution will be posted on Instagram.’

signing an online petition that freed up aid to Jordan. “Action doesn’t have to be going to a refugee camp, it can also be sharing a video on Facebook.” Yet the impact of the digital age is perhaps more nuanced than raising our awareness and the ease with which we can get involved. It has democratised activism for many who see physical protests as exclusionary. Rebecca Bunce, 32, cofounder of the IC Change campaign – working on domestic-abuse legislation in the UK – sees digital campaigning as “essential for someone who can’t always leave the house”. As a disabled woman, she is passionate about the accessibility of activism. It’s why, in 2014, she attended Campaign Bootcamp, a UK-based organisation founded in 2013, which runs week-long training sessions just outside of London. There, she learnt how to campaign digitally, which led to IC Change and a coalition of women’s organisations successfully persuading the UK government to commit to create a domestic-abuse bill. Bootcamp graduates also include the founders of feminist organisation Level Up which has, among other things, successfully campaigned through online petitions to have plastic-surgery ads removed from last summer’s Love Island.

Campaign for change For Jaz O’Hara, 28, founder of The Worldwide Tribe, it was a Facebook post that changed her life – and the lives of many others. She visited the Calais Jungle refugee camp in 2015, after her parents made the decision to foster a refugee child from Eritrea. “I was so emotional about the fact that these people were risking their lives to make the same journey to the UK that I could make easily,” she says. Jaz posted about her shocking findings in the camp – highlighting the vast differences between the media representation, which was often negative towards refugees, and the reality, which put a human face on the crisis. Within days her message had gone viral. “I was hit with this wave of people wanting to do something,” she says. Jaz was so inspired by the response, she quit her job in fashion, moved back in with her parents and took on the task of raising awareness online full time, as well as organising collections and donations for the camp on the ground. Her organisation now supplies camps across Europe and the Middle East with food, water and wi-fi. “We have access to a community and network online – that’s what brings power back to a grassroots level,” she says, citing a recent example of The Worldwide Tribe community

Activism for everyone Level Up, founded in 2018, has tapped into more than just the power of online campaigning, but the shift in activism’s focus towards inclusivity, too. “We want a feminism that isn’t dominated by the white experience,” says their campaign director, Bryony Walker, 28. “Activism has often not paid attention to people of colour, trans people, queer people and the working class: everything we want to stand for.” This is another reason activism has become relevant for younger generations; tapping into the causes that matter to them most, including trans and non-binary awareness. Cynics may call it an off-shoot of a ‘me, me, me’ generation; fighting for causes that affect ‘us, us, us’ – but these individual motivations are clearly having a wider societal impact: they’re paying it forward. “I didn’t see any positive information around trans issues when I was transitioning over five years ago,” says UK trans activist Charlie Craggs, 25. “I wanted to do something about that.” And she has, thanks to her organisation Nail Transphobia, which battles transphobia through everyday conversations over manicures. Her activism led to a book, To My Trans Sisters, in 2017: “It’s the book I wished I’d had when I was growing up. Hopefully it’s helping others.” This activism resonates especially with Gen Z who, according to research, are the first generation less likely to define as solely heterosexual and to personally know someone who identifies as non-binary. Dias, 17, an LGBTQ+ activist, launched her StraightJackets campaign last year. “I experienced abuse on the street from a grown man that really affected me,” she says. “It made me want to do something, because I realised this

isn’t just me being bullied by kids – it’s out there in the world.” The aim of StraightJackets is to make schools safe for LGBTQ+ and non-binary students, and to make sex education not just heterosexual. “I feel like power should be given to young people when it comes to certain issues.” But despite contacting the Department for Education, she’s had little success so far. “I want the education secretary to meet me, walk the school halls, speak to students and learn what it’s like for people like me. I’ll keep fighting until that happens.” But some young people don’t always associate change with Westminster, where they feel issues they care about can be ignored, or mishandled. It’s why 19-year-old south Londoner Liv Francis-Cornibert took on a lack of representation on screen with Legally Black: the 2018 viral ad campaign that inserted black actors in iconic film posters. Whereas finding solutions for young people directly affected by violent crime in the UK is at the heart of 4Front Project, where Sara

Chitseko, 25, volunteers. “Growing up, I witnessed friends suffering because of these issues and nothing is changing. The government is failing us,” she says. “Young generations are far more likely to sign an online petition than join a political party,” says Vicky Spratt, 30, the political journalist who headed up the #MakeRentingFair campaign, which successfully lobbied for improved renting legislation. However, campaigns such as #NotTooYoungToRun are aiming to change this, with the message, ‘If you’re young enough to vote, you’re young enough to run for office.’ Georgie Laming, 26, was a Labour councillor by the age of 19 and is hopeful of the future of youth engagement. “There’s two million young people who can now vote, who had no say in Brexit,” she says. “They’re now dominating the debate.”

On the ground or on Instagram, in Westminster or with your wallet – is there a correct way to be an activist? Amelia Viney, 31, the founder of Advocacy Academy, the UK’s first youth-organising group of its kind, believes you need a bit of everything – but ultimately, it’s about giving the voiceless a voice. “We pick young people who sit on the intersections of multiple oppressions,” she says. “They’re angry – but they can’t channel that anger anywhere because they have no access to spaces or people to make the changes they want.” Activism gives them that space, which is why Amelia is cautious of brands getting in on the action, co-opting it while missing the point. Last autumn’s Topshop fiasco – when a pop-up stand promoting Feminists Don’t Wear Pink (And Other Lies), the book curated by Scarlett Curtis in partnership with UN charity Girl Up, was unceremoniously torn down by the store – is a prime example. Although the retailer later apologised and made a donation to charity, it didn’t go far enough, according to Scarlett’s Pink Protest cofounder Grace. “They put feminist on a T-shirt,” she says. “But when it was actual, actioned feminism, it was too much for them.” Maybe our generation has what brands lack, and what 22-year-old Nonhlanhla Makuyana, an Advocacy Academy coach, calls “the fearlessness of identifying broken things”. So maybe we are over-saturated with activism, maybe brands are guilty of jumping on the bandwagon. But if it’s having a moment again, then it’s providing a safety net and a sense of empowerment for countless individuals who have previously felt voiceless and alone. It’s an opportunity for broken things to be fixed. And surely, whether you’re an activist or not, that’s something we can all get on board with. O

Pravina, 24, management consultant “We get slammed for being hipster snowflakes, but there are upsides to our sensitivity. Plus, I’m not remotely edgy. I never understand why people wear grey when they could wear fuchsia.”

Body Positivity… are you having a laugh? Asks GLAMOUR’s Alice du Parcq, who thinks the plus-size movement is now an unhelpful reminder that she is seen as ﬂawed. But love it or loathe it, #BoPo still gets us talking. Here, three women have their say

“Back off and stop fetishising fat” Alice du Parcq, 38, GLAMOUR’s Contributing Beauty Director A few weeks ago, I was in a fashion store on Oxford Street in London. I walked through the vast space filled with on-trend clothes, but I didn’t stop because I knew nothing would fit me. Instead, I went downstairs to ‘my’ section, which was directly next to the men’s department and backed onto the staff toilet. As I browsed the four rails of garish printed tunics with peekaboo sleeves and Bardot necklines, I spotted a poster on the wall of a model who looked about size 14, wearing a bright halterneck bikini and denim hotpants, with “#BodyPositive #LoveYourCurves” emblazoned below. WTAF. Welcome to life as a size 22(ish) woman. Despite the UK plus-size market being estimated at £6.6billion, most of what I see on the high street and online is outdated and designed by people who have zero insight into what it’s like to be fat. In that shop, it was the poster that pissed me off. It may have looked like a confidence-boosting message, but believe me, that holier-than-thou ‘feel-good’ Body Positivity crusade is complete bullshit. Plus, the hashtags didn’t appear anywhere else. It was directly pointed at me: a big girl in a thin shop. This is why the meaning of Body Positivity (or BoPo) is something very different to what it used to be. I started noticing the term as a social-media movement in 2016. My Insta feed was increasingly diverse and finally resonated – a flattering, un-scaffolded swimsuit on a mumfluencer with big thighs; a make-up vlogger with a double chin; a street-style shot of a plus-size fashion journalist. No one shouted about it: it was merely a gentle revolution to showcase body variety and level the playing field. But now I believe the BoPo message has become a sanctimonious marketing gimmick, making fat the fetish du jour

that’s been conveniently adopted by brands probably run by thin people, who think this slogan should make me feel included and proud. It doesn’t. Like those rails of (seriously rank) clothing, I feel inconvenient and pitied, shoved in the naughty corner of shame. It’s patronising supremacy masquerading as a supportive BFF, attempting to connect with an audience without looking at the bigger picture. Since the BoPo craze is predominantly aimed at overweight women, it subliminally confirms that we’re not ‘normal’ and should be segregated, saved and fixed, because we are flawed. Trust me, we’re well aware of this, and this crappy reminder of social inadequacy is doing nothing to help. If you search #BodyPositivity right now, here’s what you’ll mainly get: a gallery of Jessica Rabbit-esque girls with massive boobs, small waists, soft tummies, rounded bums and tumbling hair extensions, modelling bodycon dresses from dodgy labels. You might see influencers at the gym pinching a roll of skin and sharing their anti-

clinically obese today* do. I don’t hate my body as such; I just feel... indifferent to it. I’ve spent a long time reaching this pretend-it-doesn’t-exist state, ever since my mid-twenties when Facebook launched. I was well aware of my larger frame, but suddenly there were fulllength photos that I couldn’t rip up, e-glued forever into this new cyber time-capsule called social media. For the first time in my adult life I saw the real me, and I was stunned into a horrific acceptance that I was so, so much larger than the ‘slightly heavier’ person in my mind. These images were brutally forced onto me like immersion therapy – a big part of my self-esteem slipped away in that time, stamped on by shame and the acute humiliation of waking up to my own naïve joke. Now, aged 38, I have a new perspective, via real-life traumas,

“Don’t bully me into ‘loving myself’. Don’t psychobabble me into ‘owning my truth’” cellulite tips. Not sure about you, but for me, there’s nothing positive about that. It’s smug, sometimes intimidating, click-bait – with double-agents capitalising on women’s insecurities, sending the message to ‘sexualise your curves’ or ‘alter your body so that you’ll love it’! I know that probably sounds self-righteous and jealous (it is a bit), but let me try to give some insight into this weird, unwanted spotlight glaring over real, overweight women. Today’s frenzied version of #BoPo mocks the many years of emotional grit I’ve built to help me cope with life as a fat person. The truth is that I feel deeply un-positive about my body, as I expect many of the 27% of UK women who are categorised as

emotional maturity and a happy home life. I focus more on my health than my reflection in the mirror (I have no idea how much I weigh), I walk daily until I’m out of breath and, in my own complex capacity, try to be mindful and sensible about what I eat. Above all, I have practised very hard at resurrecting that blissfully ignorant ‘slightly heavier’ person, because pretending I am slimmer than my real self is much kinder to my mental health. Call it denial, but I don’t care: I’m in a far more stable and confident place today because I choose to be indifferent to my body’s size. So, this is why Body Positivity can fuck off, actually. Don’t bully me into ‘loving myself’. Don’t psychobabble me into ‘owning my truth’. Don’t tell me I should wear pleather jeans. I don’t want to. Why should I? Like that cringe trend a few years back when everything told us to ‘Keep Calm And Carry On’, enforced mantras like these are

a snaky marketing tool to trick women into believing that their emotions are wrong and need controlling. This explains why I’ve not been photographed full-length for this feature: the thought of the fashion team dressing me is mortifying. After 15 years of investigative plus-size shopping, I still find it hard. Most women swim in a size bracket varying by one or two increments, but the larger you are, the bigger the pool. On the same day I could be wearing a size 20 top and size 16 jacket. I have bras from two different shops measuring 44E and 38FF but they fit me the same. My wardrobe is a shitshow of black tents, elasticated waists and brilliantly distracting shoes. It’s awkward and dispiriting in private, so a dressing-room scene with colleagues is my idea of hell. I know that these deep-rooted issues aren’t shared by all overweight women and that Body Positivity has helped thousands feel empowered. To anyone who has genuinely learnt to adore their body: you will change the course of history, one generation at a time, and you have no idea how incredible that is. This is already being epitomised by large, high-profile women, such as Tess Holliday and Callie Thorpe, whose Instas combine upbeat thinking and style inspo with honest, refreshing moments of self-indignity. Sadly, they’re still trolled and scrutinised by worldwide media just for being themselves. Thankfully a new ‘body neutral’ trend is rising, where fashion and beauty brands are featuring all shapes without contrived fanfare (see Asos, Fenty and Heist Studios). The movement is being led by eloquent voices such as Natalie Lee, the award-winning style blogger and body-diversity supporter, and image-inclusion supporters Jameela Jamil (search for her inspiring #IWeigh campaign) and Grace Woodward, whose project Body Of Work looks at the ways in which women’s bodies are manipulated in the media. My message is this: stop labelling women. Don’t segregate any single size or shape. If you really want to make us feel positive about our bodies, extend your ranges on the same rail, invest in consultants who really understand larger figures, and please stop telling us to love our curves. As for #BodyPositivity? Unfollow immediately. [ 060 ]

“Body Positivity is part of the reason I am alive today” Grace Victory, 28, blogger, YouTuber, podcaster and author Back in 2016, when I began following body-positive accounts on Instagram, my life changed for the better. It took me months to get my head around the fact that you can be fat and happy, and the revelation blew my mind. In a society that demonises the marginalised, Body Positivity was invigorating and a space where I could breathe easy. I went from body hate to body love – with therapy amplifying this new-found reality. And I honestly believe Body Positivity is part of the reason I am alive today: while

going through a serious eating disorder and body issues, it gave me something to believe in and hold on to during dark times. It represented me in a way that I hadn’t seen before. I remember bloggers Gabi Fresh and Kelly Augustine posting photos in bikinis, and it gave me permission to post photos in a bikini, too. Seeing two beautiful plus-size women not afraid of owning who they are allowed me to do the same. For me, the fundamental spirit of Body Positivity is respect and kindness

of all bodies. Fat people exist, they have done for centuries and will continue to do so. The movement, for most, is the only safe place for their bodies to be seen – and accepted – because fat bodies, and even ‘non-slim’ bodies are vilified and policed by random people on the internet, the street, in the media, everywhere. It’s relentless. Marginalised bodies are not debatable; my body is not debatable. But there is also a part of me that feels Body Positivity should be an escape. The movement has lost its radical stance, it’s being hijacked by women with one back roll, and unfortunately been replaced with a more palatable version: plus-size models with flat tummies and thin arms. Since the movement has blown up, I feel it’s been commercialised and watered down, the general consensus today is: ‘I’m all for Body Positivity… if the person is healthy.’ Which, in my opinion, translates to: ‘I’m all for Body Positivity… as long as the person is slim in the right places, big in the right places, but not too big overall, because being fat is a strain on the economy.’ Using health concerns is an excuse to fat shame, but that opens up a complicated can of worms, which completely misses the point of this movement. It’s not trying to ignore real health warnings, it’s trying to make people feel more accepted with the bodies they have. Everyone’s body is their own, it’s not the world’s place to make you feel bad about that. It’s a place for everyone to reach a level of self-love, whether they are deemed healthy or not, plus someone’s body isn’t always an indicator of how healthy they are. The Body Positivity movement, at its core, is for the ‘invisible’. The fat woman at the corner shop. The trans person trying to stay alive because the world doesn’t understand being born in a body you didn’t choose. The chubby school kid with stretch marks. We need to amplify these voices and remember why, many moons ago, this movement started in the first place. Body Positivity changes lives and can even save them – just like it did with mine.

“The movement needs to be more inclusive” Denise Bidot, 32, model, TV personality, activist I’m always the first one naked, backstage at a fashion show. That shocks people because I’m curvy, and sadly that’s still rare on most catwalks. The other models can’t get over how comfortable I am – and I’m proud of that. It’s especially empowering for the thinner girl who says to me, “I wish I had your bum and waist” or “I wish I had your confidence.” It’s funny because that’s not how many of us think they would feel, right? The assumption is because they have slim figures, they have no body insecurities. But that’s just not true – and it’s exactly why I think the Body Positivity movement needs to be more inclusive. The idea that slim or smaller women – or even men – can’t be involved, doesn’t make sense to me. It was designed to be a safe space for everyone to feel beautiful and included. We just can’t pretend to know how people feel when they look in a mirror. That’s why I started my online campaign @nowrongwaymovement. #BodyPositivity opened the door for a conversation that wasn’t there before – something I needed growing up. Once the hashtag exploded, I began asking questions such as, ‘Why are certain bodies not enough?’, ‘Why is one body more beautiful than another?’ and ‘How do we change it?’ I wanted to be part of something that builds people up; a strong community; a generation that understands what makes you

unique is what makes you beautiful – I like to think my campaign reflects that. We’ve come a long way since I started modelling over ten years ago. Back then – even in plus-size campaigns – I’d be heavily retouched to fit an idea of what a curvy woman should look like. It made me very uncomfortable. That ‘just curvy enough’ ideal still exists, but the media is making progress. It’s crucial for women to see themselves represented, which is why I started posting unretouched images of myself on social media five years ago. By fighting against the bombardment of so-called ‘perfect’ imagery and proudly showing myself exactly as I was, my followers told me they felt more seen. Once we achieve that level of visibility for everyone, perhaps we’ll have fewer conversations about our size, and more about how great we feel. My biggest hope for my ten-year-old daughter and her generation is that we reach the point where they don’t have to think about what’s ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ with their bodies. It might sound totally idealistic, but perhaps it’s as simple as being saturated with all types of bodies on Instagram, TV, catwalks and in magazines, so that we never have a day where we don’t feel good enough. Because we all deserve to feel that way – whatever size we are. O

“I’ve learnt so much about my strength as a woman”

Women should always support other women It’s incredibly important as an actress to feel the support of other women. Despite having no scenes together on Colette, I met Denise Gough [double Olivier Award winner] while waiting around on set. I knew straight away she was someone who’d change my life. We then got stuck in an airport together and before I knew it, I’d booked tickets to New York to see her play, People, Places & Things. Watching her, I just thought, ‘Wow, that’s the kind of actress I want to be!’ Now she’s a real friend; people like that keep your drive going and inspire you. The attention around Aidan’s naked torso was frustrating I found the Poldark hysteria around Aidan’s torso hilarious. It was great as it meant so many people watched it, but I think the attention overshadowed the story, and as an actor, I’m all about the story. I found that quite frustrating. So going on to Colette, and working alongside Keira Knightley (she has extraordinary magnetism when she walks into a room) in a film about female empowerment and sexuality, was incredible. I’ve learnt so much about my strength as a woman by standing up for myself on set during filming, too. Unless you fight for your ten minutes, a director can shout, “We’ve got it! Let’s move on!” I only do nudity for the right role I think really carefully about intimate scenes; I would only do nudity if I felt it was right for the story. When filming the sex scenes with Keira in Colette I went topless, but it wasn’t nudity for the sake of it, it was about celebrating the female body in all forms. Because of what Colette represented – a woman discovering herself, away from her husband’s

control – I thought if there was ever a perfect opportunity to get naked, this was it. When it comes to seeing my naked body on screen, I don’t believe in body shaming, so I won’t shame myself. I’m not perfect. I have my own body hangups, but I won’t let them take over. Childhood bullying has empowered me as an adult I was shy when I was growing up. The press exaggerated how badly I was bullied at school [reports emerged that she was taunted for being ‘posh’], but I’d go away for six months to work on set and then somehow have to fit back in; you never want to feel like the awkward one. In the past five years, I’ve built up my confidence – I don’t think I could be bullied now. My parents taught me to just try my best Both my parents are actors. They’d say to me, “Keep your feet on the ground, go to every audition and try your best.” It’s such a competitive industry and so easy to get swept up in this seemingly glamorous world – but when the job ends, you never know what’s next, which is a scary thought every time. Fame hasn’t changed me Poldark put me on the map as an actress and shaped my sense of self. I was 21 when I got the job and I’ll be 27 when the final series airs – that’s a huge time of personal change. I’ve grown in confidence by discovering the actor, and the person, I want to be. Fame didn’t change my actual life, though – tonight, I’ll go home, watch Netflix and have a Chinese. But I do wear a hat when I leave the house, otherwise it’s like having a massive arrow saying, “Oi! Demelza’s over here!” I have zero time for trolls My experience of fame has taught me that, if you are affected by negativity, you shouldn’t seek it out, although it’s easy to obsess about social media. Empowerment comes from your opinion of yourself, so I don’t seek support from people I don’t know. You get trolls, but I have zero time for it – it’s faceless bullying and those comments will never get through to me. Poldark season five airs on BBC1 later this year

London-born, Yorkshire-raised Eleanor Tomlinson, 26, made her acting debut when she was 13; racking up roles in The Illusionist and teen rom-com Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging, before finding fame in 2015 as Demelza in Poldark. Most recently, Eleanor played Keira Knightley’s lover in Colette and later this year she’ll fend off a Martian invasion in the new TV adaptation of cult classic, War Of The Worlds, set in Edwardian London. She may love a period drama, but it seems no corset can constrict her outlook. Here, she reveals the empowering moments that have shaped her life – both on and away from the cameras.

“We’re breaking beauty’s gender norms” “Growing up, I always felt like an outsider,” says Fluide cofounder, Isabella Giancarlo (left), 26, from New York, who identifies as gender expansive. “For me, it’s not feminine on one side of the spectrum and masculine on the other – we have a more nuanced experience of gender.” But expressing this was tricky. “I wasn’t interested in the narrow definition of beauty I saw around me. In 2017, I was still picking up blusher that said, ‘So many men, so little time’ – and I thought, ‘I never think about men when I wear make-up.’ I wanted to create something that challenged that assumption.”

THE GLITTER BOMB Which is what Isabella did with business partner Laura Kraber (above right), 48, from New York, after they met and had “an instant connection”. Together, they created Fluide: bold, gender-neutral, cruelty-free make-up for all skintones – with an even bolder message. Because disco-bright purple lipsticks may not seem out of the ordinary, but modelling them on trans, queer and non-binary people of colour is still disappointingly rare. In 2017, Fluide glitter-bombed its way through the US beauty industry with campaigns featuring high-profile trans activists and queer models. It made the headlines and was quickly stocked online and at gender-free clothing shops in New York and Montreal. And from this spring, the products will be available in the UK.

[ 064 ]

IT STARTED WITH A MESSAGE “We were total beauty beginners,” says Laura, a former head of strategy for a health and wellness company who was inspired to start Fluide after hearing her teenagers discussing gender identity, and realising that this ‘cultural shift’ was not being reflected by brands. She and Isabella, also a creative director, started by reaching out to make-up artists and models for advice. They used social media to spread their message of inclusivity, connecting with people of all genders, sexualities and skintones. “The product came later,” says Laura. “We spent months researching manufacturers and testing products, planning the packaging and finalising the launch line.”

MAKE-UP FOR EVERYONE “We felt that we could create something new,” says Isabella, who notes there is nothing specifically ‘gender neutral’ about the actual make-up – it’s the marketing that’s powerful. “To locate make-up outside of the paradigm of cis-female beauty is incredibly liberating and it opens up the potential for make-up to be an empowering form of selfexpression, rather than a symbol of the ways in which you don’t measure up.” With Fluide, this is achieved by actively putting queer, trans, non-binary folk and people of colour in front (and behind) the cameras, as well as in the testing room, and in its ad campaigns. Top left 7-Free Polish in Riis Beach. Right Glitter in Aura, both Fluide

REDEFINING BEAUTY Now, each Fluide product is named after queer-safe spaces: such as Ginger’s Bar in Brooklyn and Dalston Superstore in London. Fluide also gives 5% of its profits to US LGBTQ+ health organisations. The feedback has been amazing – and not just from LGBTQ+ communities. “One girl wrote to us saying, ‘I wanted to feel beautiful growing up, but the marketing didn’t reflect me,’” says Isabella. “With Fluide, we’re trying to expand the definition of beauty so that everyone has a seat at the table.” Inevitably, they have received backlash – from some conservative bloggers – but they remain undaunted. “It’s a reminder of what we’re fighting against,” says Laura.

THE FUTURE IS FLUIDE Today, Isabella and Laura work on Fluide full time and are planning to grow their team, and their product line. But Isabella says their biggest achievement is that they are “making a difference”. They’re happy to see other gender-neutral brands out there, such as Jecca Makeup, and feel that the more conversations about gender expansiveness, the better. “It can be daunting to simply be two non-famous entrepreneurs with a vision, but that’s how change in an industry happens,” says Laura. “I knew that a younger me was dying to see queer beauty represented by queer people,” adds Isabella. With business booming, it looks like they got their wish. For more on gender-fluid beauty, go to Glamour.com

Welcome to

‘gram games

All about the #Inspo? Yeah, right. Everyone on Insta these days has an agenda. But are you down with it? By Samantha McMeekin

[ 066 ]

challenges that can test friendships, pit colleague against colleague and incite genuine panic. The only way to survive is to know your allies from your enemies – the traits they possess and the cards they play. It’s time to talk #Insta-tactics…

DOUBLE-TAP TEAMMATES Allies are essential in a game where likes and follows are the symbol of status and power. Every time you break into a new hundred with your follower count, you enter another level of superiority (until you reach 10,000, of course, and thereafter your success is measured in thousands). Tit-for-tat relationships can mean guaranteed hearts, essential for reaching your next target, whether it’s more followers, an increase in likes or even making it onto the Explore page. So even if you don’t really like the lift selfie they took, and they can’t stand it when you tell your life story in a caption, you have the unspoken promise to always double tap no matter what. They’re your besties (and your mum) in real life, but blood brothers and sisters on the feed.

SMOOTH OPERATORS Facetune, Perfect365, AirBrush – these are the weapons of the Smooth Operators. They’ll say it’s good lighting, the right angle and some fancy new phone, but really, they’ve just altered their selfie with one wave of their Facetune fairy wand – skin is smoothed, tummies are tucked and butts are lifted for the sake of likes (and sadly, it works). They can turn Lambrini into Moët until they become so drunk on their own power that they begin to over-edit, to the point where their feed features an entirely different person. If you know one IRL, they’ll also transform group pics, even if permission is pending. That said, everything that goes up, must come down, and one warped wall (a classic Photoshop fail) can break trust between teammates. Tweak at your own peril.

Want to play a game? Grab your glitter because it’s time to put your war paint on, and camouflage won’t help you on this battlefield. We’re going to a place where aesthetics = amo, selfie skills are artillery and every second is crucial when it comes to getting ‘the shot’. This modern-day minefield has more emotional ups and downs than an Adele album, and more fallouts than a Grammys afterparty. Want to escape volunteering as tribute? Too late, you’re already in the arena. It’s called Instagram. For many of us, that seemingly innocent photo-sharing app has become a mentally challenging obstacle course thanks to LOBL (living our best lives) pressure and the validation that comes with it. The quest for hearts used to be straightforward – when a like actually meant a like – but the game has evolved and so have the players. In 2019, dive beneath the oversaturated, over-filtered surface, and you’ll find yourself in a dark underworld of tactical follows, shadow Stories stalkers and clever comment traps. Nothing is as it seems. Who really loves your posts, and who’s double-tapping your pasta shot just so you’ll do the same for their cringe couple selfie? You see, behind every ’gram move lies a minefield of strategies and

HYPE GIRLS

SHADOW STALKERS These silent participants may think they’re invisible, but no one can hide on the ’gram. More foe than friend, they constantly pop up as a viewer of your Stories – but when it comes to likes, comments and follows, they’re nowhere to be found. And these phantoms are powered by passive aggression. Yep, they’re scollin’ and hatin’. They’ll see you went to a party on Saturday night and will take their #HarshTag attitude offline by slating the venue, the outfits and the ‘tragic’ people who went. Sad? Yes. Hurtful? 100%. Block them – if you have the balls to strike the ultimate Insta blow. Or, simply unfollow. Believe it or not, that is an option. After all, there’s no need to have someone so sneakily spiteful popping up in your feed, reminding you of their existence.

These heaven-sent support systems will shower your photos in star emojis, sassy ‘yasss queens’ and pink hearts till they’re blue in the face. But it’s not just posts they’ll pour over, you can expect the same mega praise across your Stories – even the rubbish ones. This saint-like behaviour usually comes from brandnew followers, as everything you do will appear first in their feed for a few blessed weeks. But beware: you won’t keep your Hype Girls for long, unless you repay the favour. And so begins your own fake-ass remarks: ‘That skin! How are you real?!’, ‘You need to tell me where those boots are from NOW’ until one (or both) of you grows tired, and you downgrade to Double-Tap Teammates. Like a rainbow star power boost in Mario Kart, the effects of a Hype Girl are phenomenal but short-lived. However, you never stop searching for new ones, believing that with their collective social support, you’ll be propelled into a higher following bracket, and welcomed to a new level of Instagram dominance.

Ever apply that classic cheat code to make your Sims avatar a trillionaire? Of course you did. The same shortcut to the top can be bought on Instagram in the form of faux followers, comments and likes. But these paid-for bots cost real money and are faker than a Gucci bag in a dodgy street market. How to spot them? Generic comments (‘Yes girl!’, ‘Love this!’), duplicate posts, follower fluctuations and a huge spike in likes an hour after posting. These frauds not only compromise the integrity of the game, but can make you feel lower than your standards after four espresso martinis. Guards of the ’gram are trying their best to block the bots, but this only makes hackers ha-ha as they disguise their troops better, sending them in to storm the castle undetected. Stay alert. Stay vigilant.

GAME OVER? Now you know your enemy from your allies, and your Hype Girls from your Insta bots, your pathway to glory is more easily paved. But at what point do you actually achieve acclamation? 1,000 followers? 50k? A million? When Chrissy Teigen and John Legend finally follow you back? The thing with Instagram is that there is no winner. As long as we’re active on the app, we’re taking part in a never-ending tournament. And as frustrating as all the tactics can be, you can’t hate the player if you’re happy to play the game. Follow us @glamouruk for actual (game-free) #Inspo

Are

party drugs

the future of mental health?

It’s been the controversial conversation in wellness, but as ecstasy, magic mushrooms and LSD head further into medical territory, Stephanie Theobald asks, could psychedelics really transform the way we heal our minds? Glamour.com

SS19

Psychedelics: they’ve been a staple of the party scene for years, the stereotypical drug of choice for all-night ravers and 1960s rock stars. But what about being prescribed them by your doctor for anxiety, stress or depression? We know – it’s hard to imagine your GP handing out MDMA, or collecting LSD from your pharmacist. But if recent research is anything to go by, this could be the direction we’re heading. Medicinal cannabis oil was made legal solely for prescription in the UK last year, while a study is now underway into the effects of MDMA on sufferers of post-traumatic stress disorder. It’s a mind-blowing step forward, especially considering – wellness buzz aside – these drugs remain very illegal. Possession of the strongest of these substances can land you up to seven years in prison. They include LSD, magic mushrooms, DMT (dimethyltryptamine), and potent plants such as the cactus San Pedro and the vine ayahuasca – used in spiritual ceremonies. The latter has also become a lure

for aspirational types searching for ‘enlightenment’ in their downtime, despite the dangers associated with it. For those not willing to risk getting caught in this country, the luxe Psychedelic Experience Retreat in Amsterdam (where some psychedelics are legal) offers yoga, organic food and yes, magic mushrooms, all for up to £1,200 a visit. How did a psychedelic drug get its own spa? It’s thanks to psilocybin, the mind-altering part of magic mushrooms, which the body converts to psilocin – producing the same effect as LSD. “Psilocybin seems to work like a ‘reset switch’ for the bit of our brain that tends to overthink things,” says Dr James Rucker, who is currently leading King’s College London’s research programme into psychedelics for treating depression. “Our participants have described taking psilocybin as like being in a ‘waking dream’, where new perspectives emerge. Interestingly, these experiences tend to correlate with enduring positive changes in mental health.”

PSYCHEDELIC POWER This explains why some people are travelling thousands of miles to take psilocybin in a therapeutic setting. Lucinda, 33, began using it a few years ago to help her severe anxiety, brought on by her stressful law job. Her tightly wound stress meant that even “a commuter pushing onto the train in front of me would have triggered anger”. She tried everything to treat her anxiety, from not drinking alcohol to cognitive behavioural therapy (she was wary of taking antidepressants). Although Lucinda admits to being “judgemental” about hallucinogens in the past, she’d reached a point where she needed to “gain some perspective”. This is where the Psychedelic Experience Retreat in Amsterdam came in. The retreat is run by British company The Psychedelic Society, and director of experience Stefana Bosse says the weekend has been a sell-out since it launched for those in the know three years ago – with its first women-only weekends starting this year. “These psychedelic experiences blast me wide open, emotionally,” says Lucinda. Over four months and at a cost of around £4,000, she’s experienced six “plant medicine ceremonies”, one with psilocybin at The Psychedelic Society, and five ayahuasca journeys over a week at a retreat in Costa Rica. She now ‘trips’ every year or two, treating it like a maintenance top-up and mental-health holiday: “They’ve been a powerful tool in managing my stress and anxiety.”

THE DANGER ZONE While there’s no denying the appeal of stepping ‘outside yourself’ to escape depressive spells, intense stress or work anxieties, is it really worth the risk? As despite their popularity, psychedelics still come with a serious warning label. Hidden, unresolved psychological trauma can come to the forefront during a trip and directly impact the safety of the experience, which could last anything up to 12 hours. “The danger with psychedelics comes from risky behaviour when on the drug – and not having the facilities to contain that behaviour if it occurs,” says Dr Rucker. “A bad trip can be when you encounter an unresolved traumatic experience. It’s difficult and unpleasant, and – without the right support

– reaction to a bad trip can be very dangerous.” Unfortunately, Kim, 28, discovered this when she travelled to Peru two years ago. She’d been seeing a therapist for three years, but felt it wasn’t working for her. She’d heard from friends, who’d taken it, about the mental-health benefits of the hallucinogenic drug ayahuasca and admits she was so desperate to try it, that she was “woefully unprepared”. “I went for a cheap retreat and the shaman didn’t take care of us,” she says. “I remember going deeper into blackness and I didn’t know how to come back up.” Not only was her trip poorly supervised, Kim herself was perhaps unaware of the long-lasting potency of these drugs. When she returned to the UK, she started experiencing severe panic attacks and ended up spending a further year in therapy. Still, negative experiences like Kim’s haven’t stopped medical bods trying to get the legal status of psychedelics changed. In the UK, all psychoactive substances are treated as Class-A drugs, but last year’s change in the law to support medicinal cannabis oil has prompted The Psychedelic Society to lobby for psychedelics to switch from being a schedule 1 (dangerous drugs with no accepted medical use) to a schedule 2 drug. This status change would make some of them a controlled – but available – drug, meaning that it could one day be prescribed by doctors and pharmacists. To do this, the therapeutic properties of psychedelics have to be proven.

MIND THE GAP Some studies around the world are going as far as labelling psychedelics a medical breakthrough; suggesting they help to reset key brain circuits that are known to play a role in depression. That’s what a team from Imperial College London and the Beckley Foundation (which researches the therapeutic properties of cannabis and psychedelics) discovered when they released the world’s first MRI images of the human brain on LSD three years ago. “Areas of the brain started sending and receiving information to regions they usually don’t talk to,” says Amanda Feilding, founder of the Beckley Foundation. “It positively altered networks that hold on to destructive patterns of behaviour – like addiction and depression.” As for that previously mentioned MDMA trial, the US Multidisciplinary Association For Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) is trialling the drug as a treatment for members of the military and others with PTSD – and combined with psychotherapy, it’s proving to be successful for many patients who don’t respond to antidepressants. How? The drug floods the brain with hormones and neurotransmitters that create hope and feel-good emotions in users. The ‘rave’ culture associated with MDMA is actually why California-based clinical psychologist Dr Alicia Danforth is investigating small doses of the drug as a therapy to help autistic adults deal with social anxiety. In light of these types of science-backed trials, the lure of curing problems with a ‘joyful’ trip is hard to ignore. Melissa, 39, had never taken drugs before, yet jumped at the chance to take part in a UK-based magic mushroom medical trial at London’s Hammersmith hospital in 2015, after suffering crippling depression for 18 years. “I couldn’t work. I couldn’t go out. I couldn’t sleep,” she says. “When I first took the psilocybin pill, I saw lots of mad graphics – dragons and undulating shapes – it was just crazy. Then, suddenly, I left my body. I was

“Psychedelic experiences blast me wide open, emotionally”

this orb of light bouncing through rainforests and waterfalls – I was everywhere. It was as if I was bigger than the problems I was facing.” After the six-hour session, Melissa felt, “at peace for the first time in years”. Today, she’s still on anti-anxiety medication, but no longer on antidepressants, crediting the magic mushrooms for this seismic change: “It transported me away from all the issues that were controlling my life.”

TRIP ADVISOR

Advice from Dr James Rucker, King’s College London Psychedelic therapy is illegal in the UK. The only way to get legal psychedelic therapy is via a government-licensed research study, but it’s still unregulated. If you are going to use psychedelics, the right support is absolutely essential. Make sure you are somewhere safe, with a trusted, trained professional who can help if necessary. Psychedelics are not an ‘easy way out’ of mental-health issues. They can induce disturbing experiences in some people. If you have a history, or a strong family history, of psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder then do not consider using them.

PSYCHEDELICS: W H AT YO U N E E D TO KNOW

The psychedelic therapy that Melissa experienced, whether in the context of a hospital room or in a shamanic ritual, is still very different from taking mushrooms at a house party – and there are deadly risks involved with picking your own in the wild. People like Melissa are prepped before their trip and drug doses are closely monitored, as is the environment where ‘trip sitters’ keep a close watch. That’s why the team at Stefana’s Amsterdam retreat are trained at drug welfare bodies, and guests are vetted – anyone with a family history of schizophrenia isn’t accepted, as psychedelics can induce severe psychosis in those susceptible to it. They also need to be completely off antidepressants before taking part in any therapeutic trial or retreat, as they interfere with the process. It’s also by no means a guaranteed fix. You may just be one of those for whom psychedelics have no effect. For example, a recent study into the anxiety of terminally ill patients found that although a third were positively affected by taking substances, another third showed no improvement at all. That said, whether it’s visiting a shaman in Peru or taking mushrooms at a retreat in Amsterdam – psychedelics are on the agenda. US psychiatrist and author Dr Julie Holland, who’s written extensively about her experiences working in psychiatric emergency rooms, believes we’re at a “watershed moment in psychiatry”, catalysed by the growing number of people suffering from psychological conditions. “I believe that desperate times call for desperate measures and these are daring times in medical advancements,” she says. These ‘daring times’ may set us on a path towards medically sanctioned treatments, meaning this could be the future of mental-health healing. However, it still remains an illegal activity packed with risk – there’s a long way to go before we’ll be picking up regulated psychedelics prescriptions and we’re certainly not there yet.

The witch is back

Interview by Josh Newis-Smith

She first burst onto our screens aged seven, as Sally Draper in Mad Men, but now Kiernan Shipka, 19, is a Hollywood A-lister and star of Netflix show The Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina, a reboot of the original Sabrina The Teenage Witch. Our newest #Obsession talks Taylor Swift, crying and magic... So, what are you doing right now? I’m wearing a onesie on the way to work [filming the next two series of Sabrina]. Nothing like Sabrina would wear. That girl gets ready every morning. Sometimes I’m like, ‘Can’t her hair just be wild?’ and ‘Doesn’t she forget the headband one day? Or wear mismatched socks?’ But she is so put together. She is my inspiration for life. Speaking of Sabrina, how have you found the role? Sometimes you play characters that aren’t so incredible, but to play someone who is kind of a role model is amazing. Plus, my friends actually watch it! How intense is filming Sabrina? It’s peak intensity right now: five days a week, occasionally six, 13 hours a day, not including travel, or hair and make-up. But it’s also satisfyingly exhausting. When we wrap in two weeks, I am going to sleep indefinitely. We’ve heard you like to ‘decompress’ by dancing on set? Yeah! I have my mini trampoline, we have our dance parties – it’s so fun. You’re going to end up with your own Sabrina pop group after this... [Laughs] I think we might. The Sabrina Spice Girls! Would you ever be tempted to try witchcraft IRL? Well, I love witchy things! I’m all about the crystals, and the

It’s a brand called Sun Potion and apparently it brings your immunity up a lot. I haven’t been drinking it the last two weeks and I got a cold sore – that may not be related though! How do you deal with being in the public eye? That’s always a journey, to be quite honest. Some days I feel awesome and other days I don’t. That’s just kind of where I’m

at. For me, I’ve been in this crazy industry since I was six, so I’ve had my fair share of lonely experiences. By 19, I feel I’ve been through it all, I’ve done a lot and I feel like I’m in a really good, solid place with where my life is. And how about downtime; what’s your favourite book? I read Swamplandia! by Karen Russell when I was 15 and it really stuck with me. The characters’ relationships were so beautiful and moving. I remember there were moments where I was sobbing – and I’m not really a big crier. Boxsets you binge-watched? I’m so behind on everything! The only thing I watch is Queer Eye! I just love those boys so much, I feel like I’m hanging out with five friends... Who’s your icon? Ha! It sounds funny to say, but the evolution of Taylor Swift has been a marker of my childhood. Edgy Taylor, country Taylor – there’s always a version of Taylor to reflect a point in my life! The Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina returns to Netflix on April 5

FEEL-GOOD FESTS

Tomorrowland, Belgium

If raving feels a bit too hedonistic for our hyper-woke times, worry not, as there are plenty of charitable festivals donating all profits to a good cause. The first-ever You Are Not Alone in Manchester (March 30) is a series of performances across the city, all raising funds for mentalhealth charity Manchester Mind. Suffolk’s annual LeeStock (May 25-26) donates all proceeds to the Willow Foundation, which provides once-in-a-lifetime experiences for terminally ill young adults. Then there’s Wilkestock (August 30-September 1), started 11 years ago by a Hertfordshire family, which has grown from 30 people in a field to a huge, multi-stage event that still stays true to its original mission of all profits going to charity.

Sziget, Budapest

THIS SPORTING LIFE Fancy a spot of adventure to go with your music sets? You’re in luck, as this year cult EDM festival Tomorrowland is introducing a brand-new snow-sports addition: Tomorrowland Winter (March 9-16). Nestled in the French alps, it’s the ultimate in aprés-ski and just one of a growing list of fab, action-packed festivals; from Boardmasters (August 7-11) – a total surfer’s paradise in Cornwall – to skate and BMX festival NASS (July 11-14) in Bristol. And for those who prefer less pulse-quickening activities, go further afield for Wanderlust – a selection of yoga and wellness festivals taking place in major cities across the US from April until September.

Slow the pace and get your brain in gear as festivals go beyond the music and take a turn for the intellectual. Head to Hay-on-Wye for the world’s largest philosophy festival – How The Light Gets In Festival (May 24-27) – an inspiring programme of debates, culture, comedy and performance. Or, there’s Also Festival (July 5-7), three days of talks and debates on everything from art and philosophy to politics and science, alongside wild swimming, immersive dinners and wine tastings, all on the banks of a 20-acre lake in Warwickshire. Overseas, Budapest comes alive for Sziget (August 7-13), one of Europe’s most diverse festivals, featuring a line-up of theatre, cabaret and art, alongside major headliners Ed Sheeran and Florence + The Machine.

“People always think Maisie and I are a couple. I mean, I am obsessed with her, so you never know,” Sophie Turner deadpans about her Game Of Thrones on-screen sister. “She’s my drug. I’ve got an addiction to Maisie Williams. I actually stalk her hashtag on Instagram!” When the two actors are united on GLAMOUR’s set for their first-ever joint photoshoot, there are squeals, huge hugs and even – to prove the above point – a bit of dry-humping. Yes, the girls are on top form. And anyone who might suggest their chemistry isn’t real off-screen would likely be met with the full ‘Stark sister’ wrath; an electrifying on-screen pairing that has helped turn Game Of Thrones (GOT) into the biggest TV show in the world, with a global audience of millions. Yet the world of ‘Mophie’ (as fans have dubbed them), is as free from Hollywood artifice as you could wish for. Maisie, 21, and Sophie, 23, met aged 12 and 13 respectively during the audition process for GOT, back in 2009. Practically love at first sight, email addresses were exchanged and, “Honestly, we’ve been best friends ever since,” says Sophie. Following many raucous nights in and out (more on that later), their constant stream of text messages to one another, and the matching ‘07.08.09’ tattoos on their forearms (the date they landed their roles), these two – in true GOT fashion – have pledged allegiance to each other for life. “Put us in the same room and we pick up where we left off,” adds Maisie. “We’ve always been really open with each other. As you get older, the stakes are higher, the problems get worse – so it’s built into a lifelong friendship. Sophie knows too much about me to not be my friend.” Now, as the eighth and final Game Of Thrones series hits our screens, we’ve united our favourite TV sisters to reveal their zero-filter, no-BS life lessons that we can all relate to, from mental health to men. Yes, this is the Mophie Manifesto.

SISTERS IN ARMS Despite coming of age in the public eye, the pair have managed to avoid the child-star curse of burning out too soon. And they both credit each other with getting through it. Pushing her vegan meal around a takeaway box with her fork as they both take a break from shooting, Maisie serves a refreshing dish of disclosure. “I can’t tell you the amount of times Sophie said, ‘Go to therapy,’ before I actually did. She really helped me through some messy break-ups and some friend break-ups. Whenever I’m like, ‘I need help! This is bigger than anything I can sort out on my own,’ Sophie is my point of call. I think therapy is so important. You should absolutely speak to someone, even if in your head you go, ‘Yeah, I knew that!’” Sophie agrees, “We’ve helped each other through a lot of mental-health problems, especially around body image. She’s been my crutch in that, and I’ve been hers because it seems everything she goes through, I go through. You know when girls are together a long time, their periods sync up? It’s like our emotions and personalities sync up, too.” While many high-profile actors may balk at being open about their mental health so early in their careers, both Maisie and Sophie feel passionately about sharing their

struggles. With a combined social-media following of 20 million and counting, they’re fully aware of how their position enables them to help others. “I’ve gone through some lows in my life and I want to come out of them in a positive way and help people,” says Sophie. “I actually have a really big problem with not being able to stand up for myself,” she adds. “Especially if I’m arguing against a man. Jessica Chastain [who Sophie worked with on new X-Men film Dark Phoenix] is the one that said it to me, ‘You need to stand up for yourself more!’” She’s referring to the time when an actor she worked with “walked off set” when it was time for her to say her lines, and a writer stood in for him. “She [Jessica] said, ‘Just go and talk to him, go and say something to him!’ I’m a bit of a shy, pushover person, but I’m getting there, I’m working on it.” The work is paying off: in January this year, she went into battle on Twitter with Piers Morgan after he said celebrities were making mental-health problems ‘fashionable’. Sophie blasted back: “Or maybe they have a platform to speak out about it and help get rid of the stigma of mental illness, which affects one in four people in the UK per year. But please go ahead and shun them back into silence. Twat.” Don’t mess with a Stark.

SHARING THE THRONE While they seem incredibly in tune with their bodies on GLAMOUR’s set, like anyone constructing an identity in our social-media age, the topic of body image has been part of their lives since GOT first drew swords in 2011. How has playing tomboy Arya Stark – who is largely devoid of sexuality – during her formative teenage years affected the way Maisie perceives herself? “I’ve never felt very pretty because I’ve never been portrayed as very pretty on screen. I actually think that’s really great, but in terms of how I personally feel, it’s been difficult sometimes,” she says. But being on set with women of all ages, shapes and sizes, from Emilia Clarke and Lena Headey to 6ft 3in Gwendoline Christie – has helped both actors. “I’ve met incredible women who all look very different. They all had really positive messages for us,” adds Maisie. “But I don’t know that you can ever really get away from the intense pressure of body image when you’re an actor. It was something I never cared about. I never thought I was fat until I became an actor – and I’m not fat! I don’t know any young woman that I’ve spoken to in this industry who hasn’t struggled one way or another with their appearance. I just think it’s very hard to escape.” Building a positive body image is something Maisie has struggled with outside the bubble of GOT’s seven kingdoms, “Especially when you get down to the final three for a role. You can all be really talented, but ultimately it comes down to the way you look. It’s hard not to obsess over that. I try to nip it in the bud because it’s self-destructive.” These doubts have also, in turn, sadly affected Sophie. “When I first started out acting, I thought, ‘Arghhh, I’m going to have to be really skinny for the rest of my life,’ and I’m not naturally that kind of person. But when it came to filming

X-Men [Sophie started playing Jean Grey in X-Men: Apocalypse in 2016], I saw Jennifer Lawrence, who is small, but curvy and not your typical ‘skinny star’. It made me feel so good that people see these women as powerful superheroes, and they don’t have to be stick thin – that’s how it should be. That’s how women should be depicted in every film.”

THE WEDDING IS COMING Sophie’s life has transformed, over the past two years in particular, with one fashion ambassadorship for Louis Vuitton and one blindingly huge engagement ring from her pop-star other half – Joe Jonas – who proposed in October 2017 after an 11-month romance. In true Gen-Z fashion, an Instagram announcement followed, along with his and hers Addams Family Halloween costumes, two pooches and a Swiss ski holiday with her in-laws to be, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra (who Sophie affectionately nicknames her J-Sister). But the biggest changes, she says, have actually come from within. “I think for the longest time I didn’t have a real sense of myself. I had a bit of an identity crisis where I was playing all these people and I’d grown up faster than I probably should have done. I hadn’t been able to experience university, or just spend a lot of time with friends, so for a while I kept thinking, ‘Who am I?’ “A lot of [my happiness now] is to do with being with a person I’ve fallen in love with, who loves me more than he loves himself, and who wants to see me find my own happiness. That was probably the biggest thing that pushed me to find who I am – and find my happiness in things other than acting.” Her happy hobby: “I love a painting sesh. It’s actually really tragic; it’s like the worst painting you’ve ever seen, but I love doing it!” As someone who fiercely protects her private life, talk of Joe is usually off limits. How has the prying media reshaped her life? Showing a hint of exasperation with the situation, Sophie says, “I appreciate the private moments more than the public ones; I don’t go out as much as I used to. I’m a hermit. As an actor, it’s important to be able to dissolve into a character, to maintain some sort of anonymity and it’s hard if you’re dating a Jonas brother. Well, I think they [the paparazzi] follow Joe – I’m just the tag-along!” Faced with following the wedding of 2018 (sorry Meghan!), of Priyanka and Nick, a leaked ‘save the date’ suggests Sophie’s dream wedding will take place in France this year. While Sophie won’t confirm or deny any of the details, her bridesmaid Maisie revealed that she’s got a full-throttle hen do planned. But how much of a planner is Sophie? Did she ever foresee getting married at just 23 years old? “I’m actually not a planner at all,” she laughs. “I’m more of a procrastinator. I plan at the last minute and definitely don’t have a five-year plan. I’m not thinking, ‘I wanna have an Oscar by the time I’m 30.’ I just like to ride the wave of life and see where it takes me, rather than setting a plan out for myself. It’s more fun that way, it’s more spontaneous.”

STARK SOLIDARITY Growing up on set, hundreds of miles away from their homes in Warwickshire and Somerset, meant Sophie (who has two elder brothers) and Maisie (also the youngest in her family, with three older siblings) became each other’s standard bearers on set. How much did this closeness help when working in an industry at the centre of #MeToo? “I never experienced any of that,” Sophie says. “But Maisie is definitely my protector and I’m hers,

too. I know if anything happened – especially if it was on Game Of Thrones, which it never, ever would – she’d go fucking crazy and protect me. To have a sister there, a woman who gets how degrading and awful it can be, and how you’re expected to be so submissive in your work, can be very comforting. Maisie is my strong home.” And the feeling is mutual: “Sophie is someone who really looks out for me. I could call her at any time, and she would pick up. I think that goes a long way in this industry, because you have a lot of friends, but you’re never quite sure of how deep that goes. People surprise you all the time in life. “I broke up from a best friend in a really messy and difficult way. It was so hard because I like to stay in touch with the people I grew up with. I couldn’t figure out what I’d done and whether I was a bad person – it was tough. Sophie helped me realise I wasn’t the bad person I thought I was.” Does Maisie still worry about fame affecting her friendships? “Oh God, yeah. It’s all I think about. Well, it’s not, I think about boys a lot, too!” She has remained notably low-key about her long-term relationship with Ollie Jackson – who she met at school – except for the odd exchanging of fire emojis on Instagram and public Trivial Pursuit disputes. As well as being there to support each other away from The North, Sophie and Maisie are also partial to a prank on set. “Even though we’re sisters [in GOT], we tried to sneak a kiss into every scene we did together to freak everyone out a bit,” Sophie laughs. “It kept them on their toes; making sure they were following the script.” This sense of fun has helped them cope with the unblinking barbarity their characters face in GOT. Spoiler alert – by the close of season seven, Arya (Maisie) had murdered 64 people and Sansa (Sophie) had been forced into an arranged marriage and suffered continuous abuse. But they have become each other’s escape off camera. Maisie recalls one memorable night out-out when they went to [London nightclub] Fabric the night before flying to LA for the GOT premiere, two seasons ago. “I don’t think either of us went to bed. That was good fun!” Although, she admits, “Our nights in are better than our nights out. We put on Frank Ocean’s Blonde, go to Tesco and get a meal deal. We love watching clips of people on X Factor who get aggressive.” It gets better, “When we were filming and staying together, we would give each other makeovers,” says Sophie. “I turned Maisie into a Goth once – and just ran around the hotel. We also like to play Ding Dong Ditch a lot, just stupid, childish shit.”

DONE PLAYING GAMES Fundamentally, what makes this friendship so remarkable is that there’s zero competition between them. They even constantly recommend each other for potential new roles, something that Maisie thinks is rare in the industry. “For a long time in my career, I didn’t really meet anyone who

[ 094 ]

was mean or acted like a diva, but then I did,” she says. “There’s a real lack of respect when people are bitchy on set.” For someone who was heavily bullied when she returned to school after filming the first series of GOT (Maisie even discovered that an anonymous account abusing her online was set up by someone she knew) this experience brought back painful memories of playground politics. “It felt like I was back at school,” she says. “It’s like, ‘We’ve all been given this amazing opportunity and now you’re making it unpleasant for me.’” It’s hardly surprising that Maisie and Sophie’s anti-Mean Girls approach applies to supporting other young actors they know, too. “Sometimes I think, ‘Oh God, we’re probably all going up for the same roles,’” says Sophie. “‘We’re all the same age, [are we] just going to be catty towards each other?’ But all the women I’ve worked with have been very supportive – and vice versa. I want them to do well because women should be all in it together. I go for a lot of roles that people like Zoey Deutch go for, or Chloë Moretz, but they’re my friends – I really want them to get those roles, and half the time they’re better at the roles than me anyway, so I’m fine with it. I’m glad I didn’t embarrass myself!”

YOU KNOW NOTHING, JOE JONAS (OR MAYBE YOU DO…) As they both venture into a post-GOT world – Maisie will follow Sophie into the X-Men franchise, with a new, separate film: The New Mutants. Don’t bank on seeing them reunited on screen any time soon, though (sigh). “Everyone on set is sick and tired of us being so loud and laughing so much!” says Maisie. “I don’t know if we’ll work together again. I don’t know if people would cast us in something together because we are so known for these two characters. Game Of Thrones will be some of the funniest days of my life.” However, their rallying call to young women will outlive GOT. “It’s about what’s in your mind and how clever you are at playing the game – that’s more important and will get you further than how you look,” Maisie adds. “Being switched on, aware, analysing, and understanding people is going to get you so much further than being pretty.” So, what about those final series plot spoilers? While Maisie jokes that you’d have to get her “very drunk”, to reveal the ending, someone else is already in the know. “I’ve just told Joe [Jonas],” confesses Sophie. “But he’s so mad at me – he loves the show!” She shrugs sheepishly. “Well, I have to tell someone, otherwise I’ll burst.” That’s right, Mophie play by their own rules.

His pro trick? “Use easyto-blend cream, such as Cream Blusher [£23, Illamasqua], and two brushes. Apply with one and use the other to buff out around the hairline for an unexpected edge.” Dress, Emilia Wickstead

Ellie confesses that taking on the role was deeply troubling, “I was sent a link after filming to watch it, and I still can’t revisit it, yet.” After months spent filming horrific rape scenes in the confined space, she says, “I asked if I could torch the van at the end. The emotions were so intense on set and in my head – most people only spoke Portuguese, so I couldn’t speak their language and felt even more apart from everything that was happening around me. I did feel quite lonely at times.” How did she escape putting her body and mind through such a harrowing experience? “I watched Keeping Up With The Kardashians at the weekends; I feel like that was a nice release.” Away from the cameras, Ellie has always defiantly forged her own path, admitting she’s as happy “riding my skateboard wearing Chanel” as she is, placard AHEAD OF in hand, marching through Trafalgar Square on THE CURVE a protest.

It’s about accepting everyone and their choices.” Part of Ellie’s endearing charm is she’s as self-assured and down-to-earth in her moral code as she is with her beauty routine, admitting in the past that she still goes to her gran’s – a former hairdresser – in Essex, to have her roots done.

Long live British Dear J-Beauty. And K-Beauty. And every-other-countrybeauty. We love you, deeply, but it’s time for a break. It’s complicated. Like, literally: we can’t get our heads around craycray routines every day. So, we’re coming home, because smart, simple and state-of-theart Brit beauty is in the lead By Alice du Parcq Illustration Aadam Sheikh

What links hair-colour guru Josh Wood, make-up mogul Charlotte Tilbury and vlogging megastar The Plastic Boy? They’re the UK exports impacting global beauty and making us feel pretty damn proud to be British. Our beauty industry is worth £18million, employing almost 260,000 people (and you are the cog turning that wheel, given that half of them are aged 16-34). We’ve helped shape major moments, from cruelty-free legislation to punk and piercing, and things are about to get serious thanks to the British Beauty Council – the first-ever formal group representing the UK beauty industry. “My goal this year is to have beauty listed at government level as a ‘creative industry’, in the same way that film, software and music are,” says Millie Kendall MBE, CEO of the British Beauty Council. Here’s to the homegrown brands, influencers, tech and artists consistently blowing our minds with innovative moments that push empowerment and self-expression. All rise for the next Brit things...

Land of hope and glitter

Where has the UK ruled like no one else in beauty? “Creative output! We’re leaders in terms of brand, design and innovation. Just look at hair: superstars such as Guido Palau and Sam McKnight confirm that. And we were the first to do clean beauty. The Body Shop and Neal’s Yard Remedies were the original UK pioneers of naturals, with a renegade stance on sustainability. We need to recognise what industry leaders we really are.” What are we going to be obsessed with in 2019? “Cannabis is cleaning up its image with a big focus on non-psychotropic hemp oil in beauty products, meaning it’s high in wellness-related CBD with zero THC [the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana]. Also, colourchanging cosmetics are going to be huge! Look out for

We’re already fighting over Milk Makeup, cofounded by British fashion editor Zanna Roberts Rassi, and the next instalment of UK make-up legends Lisa Eldridge and Pat McGrath’s cosmetics lines will be just as popular.” What is the British Beauty Council championing right now? “The honest beauty trend, which takes a positive stance without the need for ‘negative vocabulary’, (where brands state what’s not in their products, for instance preservatives or cleaning agents, inciting fear and confusion).

I’m here to make a change.” Hit up @ameenahbydesign to find out where you can send your powders.

According to research agency Mintel, 53% of millennials consider non-surgical treatments, such as Botox, fillers and lasers, to be an increasingly normal part of our beauty routines. Given this open perspective, the brands that produce lasers and injectables have introduced a new generation of innovations to replace plastic surgery and bypass our usual brow-shaping and lipliner rituals.

Small amounts of injectable hyaluronic filler (in varying viscosity) are placed precisely where light hits the face – and where strobing products are usually applied: the forehead, browbones, down the nose, the chin and along the cheekbones. The effect can last up to two years. “We do a similar facial rebalancing treatment,” says Dr Hussain, which includes cheekbone enhancement for a contoured effect, plus a brow ‘lift’ to replicate the shaping effects of threading. From £485, MD Aesthetic.

are super-fine and a local anaesthetic numbs the area during treatment. Staying with dark circles, some derms are embracing the new trend for using the body’s own cells to fix themselves, adopting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) technology. “It’s about taking growth factors from the patient’s blood and injecting it around the eyes to stimulate cell energy, which in turn improves dark circles and uneven skin colour,” says Dr Chantrey. One to research is Exokine, a hyper-concentrated PRP treatment launched in January (£875, Eudelo).

“Filler is placed precisely where light hits the face”

Personalised pout Once upon a time the only option for bigger lips was an over-inflated collagen trout pout. Welcome to 2019’s subtle new lip menu, headed up by British cosmetic surgeon Dr Tijion Esho, AKA The Lip King. “I focus on the Cupid’s bow and a 50/50 ratio between the top and bottom lip for the most natural-looking result.” His signature Nano-droplet technique (from £300) places tiny amounts of hyaluronic acid at varying depths and points along the lipline, as well as inside the lips, as opposed to a single lump of collagen filler. The finished effect (which usually dissolves within a year): a seamless, subtle enhancement.

There’s so much more a savvy derm can do with Botox these days than zapping frown lines. The muscle-relaxing injectable – owned by pharmaceutical giant Allergan – is the star ingredient in many of Dr Charlotte D’Souza’s treatments. These include the ‘bunny nose’ treatment (from £200), where Botox is used to prevent fine-line creases on either side of the bridge of your nose when you smile, and Masseter treatments (£300) to slim the face by relaxing the muscles in overly pronounced, square jawlines. And for those not wanting to go down the lip-contouring route, there’s the ‘gummy smile’. “If your top lip tucks itself inwards and disappears when you smile, we’ve now found a way to relax those specific lifting muscles using Botox,” says Dr Hussain (from £195, MD Aesthetic). The result? A long-term illusion of a fleshier, fuller lip. Go to Glamour.com now to see the GLAMOUR team try some of these treatments out…

Needle-to-know basis Our insider experts on the three new buzzwords to know 2Tox “There’s a new ‘B Type-2’ toxin launching later this year – you’ll need less of it and the results will last longer,” says Dr Esho. Fat-Cycling “Nanofat is a new fat-grafting technology that combines your own stem cells with ﬁllers to give the most subtle results. No one wants to look overdone,” says Dr Guillaume Lemierre, a plastic surgeon at Epilium & Skin.

Frotox “This uses noninvasive cryotherapy to temporarily freeze muscle nerves, tighten pores and stimulate collagen. Skin is blasted with highly pressurised liquid nitrogen vapour, which is -162°C. My glow lasted about two weeks and I was really impressed,” says Lottie Winter, GLAMOUR Beauty Editor. SS19

BEAUTY MEMO

“I delete Instagram for my mental health” Hailey Bieber on being blessed with good genes, her backstage beauty secret – and why she’s over social-media negativity Interview by Lottie Winter

Complexion Rescue Hydrating Foundation Stick*, £29, Bare Minerals

Hailey Bieber, 22, is sitting in front of me with the most incredible skin I’ve ever seen. It’s poreless, bright, radiant and perky, but rather than being over-treated, it looks wholesome and healthy. That ethereal, juicy complexion you see on her Insta selfies is 100% ’tune-free. And I’m here to find out how. She’s snuggled up on a sofa in a cosy Soho Farmhouse cabin in the Cotswolds, chatting about her skincare rituals as the newest face of Bare Minerals. “I’m obsessive about cleansing,” she says. That, plus her loved-up inner glow (her husband Justin – yep, Justin Bieber – is currently waiting for her in their room) is a winning combo for Hailey, despite keeping up with the manic schedule of a modern, major It girl. The daughter of Hollywood actor Stephen Baldwin and graphic designer Kennya Baldwin, Hailey rose to fame in her own right as a catwalk model, walking for brands including Topshop Unique, Elie Saab and Moschino. It wasn’t long until she forged close friendships with Gigi and Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner, and together they stormed international runways, proving themselves to be the ultimate supermodel squad. Now, Hailey’s travel companion is her husband, whom she married in secret last September in New York. From what I’ve seen up close on this trip, they seem besotted and hardly able to keep their hands off each other. When we chat, Hailey appears totally relaxed and elegant, wearing top-to-toe red, including a fluffy, floor-length Max Mara coat. She’s also happy to share the secrets behind her glowing appearance, her wellness rituals, hair hang-ups and biggest beauty blunders… GOOD SKIN RUNS IN MY FAMILY My grandma was a make-up artist when she was younger. She was always into her skin, beauty, make-up and lotions, and I think my mom got that from her, too. I have no doubt that I learnt all my beauty secrets from watching how regimented they were; my mom always made sure we put lotion on after a shower and that I removed my make-up before bed.

Fleur Narcotique, £165 for 50ml EDP, Ex Nihilo

MY NO1 SKINCARE RULE I never sleep with my make-up on. My stylist always sleeps with her eyeshadow on because then it looks more worn the next day and she doesn’t have to apply it again. But for me, I swear it hurts when I don’t take my mascara off! It feels like my eyelashes aren’t clean. It really doesn’t matter the situation, one way or another, my make-up is coming off before bed. MY BACKSTAGE BEAUTY SECRET When I was at Paris Fashion Week, a make-up artist gave me some Dr Barbara Sturm skincare. I loved it so much that Dr Sturm came to my hotel room to make me a bespoke cream using my own blood! MY WELLNESS RITUALS I’ve tried colonics [a treatment that claims to cleanse the colon of toxins]. Now that’s an interesting feeling! But they’re really good for you. My mom and aunt are very into health, and I’m just into all the sweat treatments, the light saunas and body wraps. But my all-time favourite relaxation activity is taking a bath, putting some music on, and just lying there, being. Oh, and I love Rumble [a boxing-based fitness studio in New York, LA and San Francisco]. MY CAN’T-LIVE-WITHOUT BEAUTY BUYS I take Viviscal hair vitamins because I’m really trying to grow my hair right now. I often see comments on Instagram of people saying, “Why does she always pull her hair back?” I’m like, “Because I hate the length!” It’s so awkward. Other than that, I’m all about the coconut oil. I use it in my hair, my skin, my nails – I love something that’s multi-purpose. At the moment I can’t get enough of the new Bare Minerals Foundation Stick, which has a great consistency – you can use it as a concealer or foundation, or even as a bronzer or eyeshadow. Multi-use products make travelling so much

easier. I’m also a lip-balm obsessive, but I always go budget. I like Aquaphor Lip Repair and Carmex Lip Balm for the little tingle! My signature fragrance is Fleur Narcotique by Ex Nihilo. HOW I DEAL WITH SOCIAL MEDIA Alone time is really important for my sense of wellbeing, so I often delete the Instagram app – sometimes for a day, sometimes a week. I feel so much better the longer I can go. I think that social media shouldn’t take up too much of my time if I’m not enjoying it. The negativity screams so loud, and it’s hard to focus on my mental health when the second I come back on it, someone is tearing apart my job, or relationship – or essentially any of the things in my life that are positive. So, I just delete it to avoid the anxiety. MY BIGGEST BEAUTY BLUNDER Thin eyebrows! I did it myself when I was a teenager and totally hated it. My mom had to intervene, she was like, “Enough!” For Hailey Bieber’s best hair and make-up looks, go to Glamour.com

Time to play lab geek and make your own bespoke beauty formulas, says Alice du Parcq We love a monogrammed accessory, but when it comes to bespoke personalisation, it’s the beauty world that’s winning in innovation for 2019. “Clever tech means mass customisation is now regularly achievable, and there’s a trend for products and services that put you at the centre of things,” says Chris Sanderson, cofounder of trend-forecasting hub The Future Laboratory. Arriving by late summer is Neutrogena MaskiD – a 3D-printed face mask tailored to your skin’s needs, based on data collected from a selfie. Later in the year, La Roche-Posay drops its stick-on My Skin Track pH patch, which tracks your pH levels and prescribes targeted products via an app on your phone.

On a scale of one to FFS, how annoying is it when half the people at a party are wearing the perfume you spent ages finding? If you’re enraged, enter the world of customisable fragrance. First, there’s ‘scent layering’, where a brand creates perfumes with just a few highquality ingredients, allowing you to spray different fragrances on top of each other

for a freshly mixed result, without any overpowering effects. We’re in love with Tailor Your Story Layering Scents, a trio of perfume rollerballs including Mocha Bloom, Leather Haze and Vanilla Satori (£19, & Other Stories). Or tweak an existing fragrance by adding specific extracts under the guidance of in-store experts with Ex-Nihilo’s Personalised EDP (£240 for 100ml), or Floris London’s Bespoke Fragrance Customisation (£450 for 100ml EDP). And the big-time dream? A purely personal luxury perfume made from scratch just for you. Until recently, that would have cost thousands. Tens of thousands, even. The Experimental Perfume Club offers a one-to-one three-hour workshop in east London, where founder and perfumer Emmanuelle Moeglin will help you create your own fragrance for £450, including the first 50ml bottle.

From that data, you’re prescribed a 360-degree regimen including skincare and oral supplements (from £570, including products, at select clinics). In the same vein (sorry) is Dr Barbara Sturm’s Blood Cream, which at £1,200 (yes, eye-watering, we know) promises incredible youth-boosting results.

This prompts your blood into producing healing proteins that are mixed into your skincare products.

Blossom Collection Colognes, £49 for 30ml each, Jo Malone London*

ALL FOUR IT Area SS19

These Jo Malone London candy scent confections had me at the bottle alone (#ShelfiePorn), but there’s equally tempting juice inside. Frangipani Flower whisks you to the golden hour in the balmy tropics; Star Magnolia is a smooth and creamy floral; Silk Blossom is fresh and uplifting; and notes of twinkling citrus-tinged petals radiate from Orange Blossom. It’s impossible to pick, so I’ve decided to mix, which is precisely the point – they’re fragrances made to layer.

LIP FILTER Want a sheer swipe of colour on lips? You’re spoilt for choice RN. One of my long time BLFs (best lip friends) is Rouge Volupté Shine, £28, YSL Beauty, for conditioning, high-shine colour. If shimmer is your thing, try Dior’s glimmering Lip Glow To The Max (right), £28.

SKIN TRUTHS OK, I’ll admit it, I can be lazy on the beauty front despite my day job, which means I’m all about the new skip-care trend of ditching extra steps for the bare minimum. But my skin doesn’t always get the memo. So, you’ll find me reaching for Truth Serum, £42, Ole Henriksen. It’s a power shake for skin, a zingy vit-C-loaded serum that brightens and hydrates, from the cult US skincare brand, now exclusively available at Boots.

“My hair: a love story” (starring chemo) As told to Gemma Askham

At 13, Liz Williams hated her ginger hair. At 19, she fell back in love with it. And at 21, cancer stole every strand. What happened next is a lesson in how to own heartbreak I’ve always had big, thick, curly, ginger hair and, like any teenager who wants the opposite of what they naturally have, I hated it. From 13 to 18, I did everything I could to change it: straightening the life out of it, colouring it – even bright purple once, which, against my fair skin, was not the greatest life decision. It was only at 19 that I understood why everyone would say to me, “Why do you change your hair? It’s so lovely.” Gradually, I began to keep it natural again, dying it closer to my actual colour. I remember thinking: ‘I do really like my hair, I’m going to get it back to how it’s meant to be.’ Then, just as I started to love it, I was told I would lose it. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2014, aged 21, two years into my career at an insurance brokers. In the years beforehand, I’d found a few lumps here and there, and had always been vigilant and gone to my doctor – only to be told they were just cysts or hormonal lumps. But it felt

different this time: a lot bigger, and really hard and flat. The next day my doctor referred me to my local breast unit. I convinced myself that it wasn’t going to be what I feared; ‘Don’t be stupid,’ I thought, ‘you’re only 21.’ Even during the biopsy, doctors kept saying that because of my age, they were 99% sure it would be harmless tissue. But 15 days after finding the lump, I was told I had breast cancer. I went through the tears, the confusion, not really sure what was happening. I had so many questions, but my first was simply: “Am I going to die?” To which the doctor replied, “Not any time soon.” (I thought: ‘Well, that’s good.’) My next thought was, ‘But will my hair?’ I’ve since learnt that hair loss is one of the most common fears among women, rather than the cancer, as it makes them look ill and not feel like themselves. When I was told that my hair would fall out from the chemotherapy – along with my eyebrows,

eyelashes, leg hair... all of my hair – I was like, ‘Oh. But I’ve only just decided that I love my hair, why are you doing this?’ Ten days after I was diagnosed, at the beginning of December 2014, I had a lumpectomy to remove the cancer. In January 2015, I had my eggs frozen. Then, in February, I started chemotherapy. Desperate to reduce the amount of hair I’d lose, I tried wearing a cold cap: an ice-filled bag that narrows the blood vessels beneath the skin of the scalp, reducing the amount of chemo medicine that reaches your hair follicles – so hair is less likely to fall out. But it’s not nice. The weight and coldness of the ice gave me pounding headaches. It also extended the chemo time, as I had to wear it for an hour before and keep it on afterwards. But less than three weeks after my first chemo session, my hair started falling out anyway. By the time I went back for my second session, four weeks later, I was completely bald. I was in hospital in Southend when the first clumps of hair came away. There’d been a complication with my PICC line – the thin tube that goes into your vein to administer the chemotherapy – it had got infected and resulted in a blood clot. I was really ill in hospital for two weeks, to the point where I couldn’t wash myself. One day, I was standing naked in the hospital shower while my mum washed my body. I had a carrier bag taped around one foot to cover my cannula, and as I brushed my hair, it came out in clumps. I saw them clogged in the brush and I bawled my eyes out. Back in my hospital bed, I pulled out bits of hair and handed them to my mum to get rid of, until she gave me a Waitrose carrier bag and said, “Love, just use this.” It took about two days of shedding until I thought, ‘If I’m going to look like I have cancer, I’d rather just shave my head and go for it.’ My mum and a few friends brought some food and we had a head-shaving picnic in my hospital room, while my friend Rheannon, who’s a hairdresser, shaved off what was left. I cried a little bit, mainly as I was worried what I was going to look like afterwards. I kept imagining that my head was actually shaped like a square. But when I looked in the mirror, it was such an anticlimax. I yelled, “Oh, I look alright – it doesn’t even look bad!” Before I started chemo, I had a wig consultation for my one NHS allowance synthetic wig. Because my natural hair is so thick, so there, I felt the need to have a substitute ready. There was a Macmillan Information and Support Centre at the hospital, so while I was recovering from the blood clot, one of their wig specialists came to my room for fittings. By the time I left hospital, I had two synthetic wigs – I paid for an additional one, as I wanted to have the option to change up my look. I didn’t try to copy my natural hair – it would have

been near impossible to find a wig similar – so I went for looks that I’d like to have worn. One was a straight, honey-blonde bob. The other was browny-red with a light wave. Some people with cancer struggle with wigs, finding them hot and itchy, but mine were great and looked like actual hair. In the mornings, I could get up, put my wig on and go. When I washed my ‘hair’, I just had to put it in a bowl and then hang it up to dry. I knew my own hair wouldn’t start to grow back until after chemotherapy, but my confidence with my new wigs kept growing. I seized the opportunity to experiment and bought both a pink and a blue one. I’d mix up my choices based on my outfits. I was so fortunate that I bounced back from each chemo session quickly – if I took my medicines as directed, I could feel well enough to go out the next day. And socialising served as a good distraction. Getting ready for nights out, I’d ask friends: “Which wig looks better?” My wig colour would then dictate my make-up colour choices. If I sometimes couldn’t

be bothered, I had a turban-type hat that I’d wear to the gym or supermarket, but if I wore make-up, I’d also wear a wig. I remember going to my local pub in three different wigs over a week and the bouncer was so confused. “You’ve changed your hair again,” he said, “how are you doing this?” He was the first person who quizzed it. But I was never ashamed. I’d simply say, “Yeah, I’m wearing a wig, I’ve got cancer.” But the comment I heard most from strangers was simply, “I really love your hair.” When I finished chemotherapy in July 2015, I was completely bald, everywhere. No leg hair, no armpit hair – nothing. Not having to shave was a real positive but I didn’t realise how much losing my eyebrows and eyelashes would change my face. They gradually fell out, thinning hair-by-hair each day, until a month after I lost my head hair I looked at my reflection and felt… alien. If I didn’t have make-up on, I looked ill. Chemo made my skin dry and patchy, so I changed to a nourishing foundation and used extra bronzer to make myself look a little bit more alive. But, mainly, I felt naked without my face hair. So, I spent a lot of time learning how to draw my eyebrows on. Without my own brows as a guide, I was stuck. I tried eyebrow stencils, but found them too fiddly and ended up free-handing. I got relatively good at keeping them even – or at least in the same place on my face. And I got very good at applying fake eyelashes.

Although I saw signs of head-hair regrowth a month after chemo finished, it came through so slowly; it took at least eight months to reach a length I could style. The initial regrowth was so curly that it looked a bit ridiculous. It sounds stupid, but I forgot how to have hair: how to style it and make it look nice. I struggled with which products to use and how often I should wash it. When you don’t need to think about this stuff, you forget it, so I had to re-learn how to ‘do’ real hair. I wore my last wig at the end of 2016: a curly red bob. Darker than the natural hair I’d spent so many years trying to change, but close to it. I think, mentally, I was filtering back to normality. Overall, I spent around £600 on 14 wigs on eBay and hairpiece websites, such as Lush Wigs. I threw most away because they got matted, but in a box at the bottom of my wardrobe I’ve still got the pastel-pink bob that I absolutely loved. Today, I don’t have any cancer. But after I finished my chemotherapy and radiotherapy, I had a genetic test and was diagnosed with the BRCA1 mutation – passed down from my dad’s side (his mum had breast cancer) – which increases

I didn’t want to spend my life worried that my cancer would return; so, in September 2016, aged 23, I chose to have a double mastectomy and reconstruction, and I’ve recently had my nipples reconstructed, too. I’m now fully back in normal life – well, whatever my version of normal is – and looking forwards. As for my hair, it’s now shoulder-length and healthy. When I oversleep, I sometimes joke that it’d be easier if I could just throw a wig on. My eyelashes are finer than they were and I’ve still got a bare patch in my eyebrow, but I do love my hair.

We’re feeling burnt out, and it’s taking a toll on our mental health. But there’s a new wellness revolution tipping the work/life scales in our favour… When was the last time you found yourself with a free hour, all to yourself, during the week? A whole 60 minutes for that yoga session/art class/Shelter volunteering? If only. Because, let’s face it: life is one gigantic work whirlwind. From waking up phone-in-hand to the minute we crash out in bed, we’re never out of office any more. It wouldn’t surprise us if you’re considering joining the four million people who’ve shunned the traditional workplace to go freelance. It’s not just a radical social shift – it’s actually sending today’s employers into a tailspin as some of their most valuable staff members clock-off for a more carefree life. It’s why, in 2019, they’re willing to go to extreme lengths not just to keep their staff, but make them happy again by acknowledging that they are not just cogs in a machine, but real people with goals and aspirations outside of their work life. And you are set to benefit. Welcome to Workplace Wellness: the new office trend where your bosses want to help you smash your personal goals, not just your career ones. Recently, mindfulness company Headspace launched a meditation programme for work – with Google, Roche and Adobe already involved. Companies, such as Facebook, are also embracing the idea of creating a better work/life balance for their staff, with a practice called ‘vision writing’, where employees are invited to share both their life and professional goals – and ask their bosses to help them achieve them (yes, really). Think swapping that desk lunch for a rock climbing session, taking time out of your work day to volunteer

at a local charity, or working a nine-day fortnight (for the same pay) to give you time to set up your illustration business on the side. Sound impossible? Just read on…

BRING YOUR LIFE TO WORK Inviting your personal life into the office might sound a bit cringe, but the whole point of this new work/life integration drive is to make even the most typically awkward conversations normal and guilt-free, sending happiness rates soaring. “We’re in the middle of a workplace evolution,” says Gabrielle Bosché, founder of The Millennial Solution, an organisation that advises companies, such as Audi and Microsoft, on how to maintain multi-generational workforces. “Smart businesses are realising that to meet their goals, they need to help employees meet their own ones, too.” So, what does this mean in reality? It starts with asking employees to create three separate lists – personal goals, professional goals and charity goals – and then adjusting their working week to make time for them. “We have an employee in Australia who wanted to learn how to swim,” says Carolyn Everson, Facebook’s VP for global marketing solutions. “At each appraisal meeting, she discussed with her boss how she could fit in swimming lessons, and they restructured her work

schedule. She’s just completed her first Open Water championship.” Talk about life in the fast lane. To hit those goals, bosses are collaborating with their staff by inviting them to write a ‘vision letter’. Think of it like a mission statement, where you list your aspirations alongside a time frame, detailing how many hours you need and when you want to achieve them by. Then you share it with your friends, colleagues and bosses to see how they can help. Why? First off, we’re 42% more likely to achieve our goals by writing them down*. Secondly, there are logistics involved with, for instance, booking a conference room every Tuesday to practise your Tai Chi. Either way, everyone knows about it – and your colleagues (who’ll have their own goals to achieve, too) won’t be passive-aggressively clock-watching when you head out.

EVERYONE’S QUIDS IN

OK, so it’s easy to see the benefits for us, but where’s the plus side for your boss when you’re having to skip a meeting to compete in a netball match? “Companies that help their teams find their purpose and live it out at work will see fewer sick days, more fulfilled employees, high productivity rates and lower staff turnover,” explains Gabrielle. The stats agree. A recent Headspace report showed that insurance company Aetna saved £2,300 per employee, per year, on potential lost productivity by introducing a mindfulness initiative. In some cases, companies will even pay for you to pursue your side-hustles if they understand the benefits. “I work across health and fitness brands for a PR company in London, which started an initiative to support employees in pursuits outside of work,” says Alice, 26. “I’ve always wanted to become a qualified personal trainer and after presenting my case to my bosses, they supported the funding for my training, which would have cost me £2,000. The course was online (with practical tests at the end) so it didn’t interfere drastically with work. I feel much

more motivated at work as a result, plus holding a PT qualification adds credibility with clients.” The idea of being paid by your company to pursue your dreams isn’t as crazy as you might think. Another study by Headspace found employees who felt more engaged in their jobs were 43% more productive and generated around £57,000 more revenue than non-engaged workers.

HOW TO GET PROJECT YOU STARTED Got a super-supportive boss? Ace. If not, don’t let that stop you. Practise vision writing with a letter to yourself on what you want to achieve by the end of the year to help focus your mind – and your priorities. Saj Jetha, founder of The Smarty Train, a talent advisory service that has helped companies such as EY and HSBC adapt to the changing needs of millennial employees, has this advice for writing one. “First, rid your mind of ANTs (automatic negative thoughts) that haunt everyone’s daily work. No more ‘I’m not good enough.’ Secondly, ask yourself: what matters to me? What are my skills? What will leave me fulfilled? Thirdly, list everything you want to do, see and achieve in the next year, alongside a date you wish to have done it by. Keep it concise and clear.” And while that life-drawing class might not exactly blend seamlessly into your office job, the fact you’re also putting effort and time into something not career related will allow you to switch on at work without resentment. This renewed enthusiasm might just persuade your boss that it’s worth the compromise, especially if you don’t pack it all in and go freelance. Because if we’re still chasing that elusive work/life balance, we really should work just as hard on the ‘life’ bit. Don’t you think? For advice on how to write your vision letter, go to Glamour.com

My 2019 vision letter By GLAMOUR Deputy Beauty Editor Sam McMeekin, 27

PERSONAL GOALS I really want to write a book. The achievement of completing it would be amazing. I’d like to dedicate at least five hours a week to writing and finish it by the end of the year. I want to learn how to play my guitar! It would cost me £145 for a month of weekly private sessions at the London Guitar Institute, which is a tenminute walk from the office. It’s totally do-able. On a day-to-day basis, I’d like to learn to be nicer to my

other half; I can sometimes take out my work and life frustrations on him. Perhaps this could be remedied by attending wellness talks on how to separate work and home life, and taking up daily meditation sessions.

CHARITY GOALS By April, I’m keen to start volunteering with an organisation that matches disabled youths with paid work. I used to babysit a girl with Down’s Syndrome – she was so capable and smart;

I daydream about ways I could help her find a job today. I’d love to volunteer at a retirement home, running a games night or one-to-one visits. Two of my grandparents, who have since passed away, lived in a home and visitors always made their day. I’d just need time or flexibility in my work hours to do this.

PROFESSIONAL GOALS I’m game for group exercise classes. I work out, but would love to bond with colleagues

in a group session. At my previous job, the company paid for a personal trainer to come once a week. Knowing that they invested in our mental happiness and physical health was so motivating. I want to redesign the GLAMOUR beauty cupboard (I’m a clean freak and feel anxious in a messy work space). I could collaborate with a storage brand and document the project as an online feature, to inspire viewers who want to remodel a work or home space.

Tropic like it’s hot In search of pure paradise? GLAMOUR found it in the Maldives (it’s a hard job, but someone’s got to do it, right?) Picture a mile-long strip of white sand and lush palm trees amid the pristine azure waters of the Indian Ocean. That’s the type of magical setting on offer in the Maldives. The GLAMOUR team got to experience @kuramathiisland life for ourselves while shooting this issue’s fashion and beauty features (check out the pictures on p96 and p114), and we’re telling you, if you’re after idyllic island inspo, it ticks all your holiday boxes…

SCENIC ARRIVAL? TICK. Shake off the memories of your long flight during the 90-minute speedboat transfer to the resort – jet lag is no match for refreshing sea spray. (If you’re in a hurry, you can get a 20-minute seaplane.) At the resort, the turquoise sea and white beaches are so vibrant they don’t look real. You’ll need at least an hour a day for ‘gramming the views.

SPA HEAVEN? TICK.

By Amelia Trevette

Melt away any lingering tensions with a full-body massage at the Kuramathi Spa, AKA the most relaxing place on the planet. Think over-water spa room, Voya products and the soothing lull of ocean waves.

LOVE NESTS? TICK. The guest villas are what romantic holiday dreams are made of: outdoor rainfall showers, fourposter beds and huge outdoor decks either on the beach or over the ocean. No, you won’t ever want to leave.

GREAT DINING? TICK. Nine restaurants and six bars cater for all tastes, with Indian, Thai and Mediterranean food and, naturally, plenty of fresh seafood to go with your cocktails. We ordered amaretto sours by the infinity pool at the Laguna Bar, with a milky pink sunset right on cue for the perfect backdrop.

WATER SPORTS? TICK. Alongside three swimming pools and a tennis court, Kuramathi hosts a dive school for those keen to get up close and personal with dolphins, turtles, reef sharks and manta rays. OK, we’ve talked ourselves into it, we’re going back.

WANT TO GO? TICK Kuoni offers seven nights full board at Kuramathi (kuramathi.com) in a Deluxe Beach Villa with Jacuzzi, including flights on SriLankan Airlines from London Heathrow and group transfers. Selected departures in September 2019, based on two adults sharing, from £2,141 per person; kuoni.co.uk. To book, please quote tour ref: MV179

What happens when passports and phobias collide? Three writers ﬁnd out on these fear-facing trips of a lifetime

РЕЛИЗ ПОДГОТОВИЛА ГРУППА "What's News" VK.COM/WSNWS

Joanna with her boyfriend Josh (left) and their diving instructor Claude, on Nusa Lembongan island

“I was petriﬁed of deep water – until I took the plunge in Bali” By Joanna Blomfield “SHAARRK!” my elder brother Nik shrieked. I was eight years old and we were swimming just off shore in Estepona, Spain. I splashed wildly, catching sight of an ominous shadow below, screaming for my life. But then I heard Nik howling with laughter. The ‘shadow’ was mine, and although it was just a prank, that fear kept my feet on land for the next 16 years. In 2017, six months after my mum suddenly passed away, my boyfriend Josh and I booked a trip to Bali. The luminous Indonesian island is known for its serene, spiritual vibe: something I sorely needed. Plus, as Mum was a perpetual beach-seeker, scattering some of her ashes on the sands of Nusa Lembongan, a tiny island off the south-east coast, became my goal. While there, Josh told me about a magnificent mandarinfish he’d seen when he’d previously dived the Bali Sea. The fear of a Jaws bite had always stopped me going further than a paddle in the ocean, but now something had shifted. My mum was very courageous, so in honour of her I decided to explore this underwater world for myself at Manta Point: home to 3.5m-sized manta rays. I didn’t need to complete a PADI course, as the explorative dive we chose meant it would be just me, Josh and our instructor, Claude. As our tiny boat rocked on the water, I couldn’t stop shaking. The water looked black, and the only thing running through my mind was what was waiting for me beneath. After

what felt like forever, I finally plunged into the unknown. But a few metres down, my chest felt overwhelmingly tight. At first, it wasn’t the deep water that panicked me, but the sudden realisation that we’d be underwater for 25 minutes. I had no idea I’d feel so claustrophobic. I signalled my distress before shooting to the surface. They followed and calmed me down. I was terrified, but I kept thinking of Mum. ‘She was so brave, and so am I,’ I mentally repeated. I sunk back down… and then, I thought I saw a shark. But my eyes were just playing tricks on me. After many reassuring hand gestures from Josh, I relaxed enough to notice the rays. Huge, dark, spaceship-shaped beasts, yet so majestic, elegant and serene. Gliding – dancing, almost – so effortlessly, they completely captivated me and their beauty made me forget about my fear. I felt at peace for the first time in months. Returning to the beach, I was euphoric; like I had conquered an emotional mountain. We flopped on beanbags to watch the famous Bali sunset over a few beers, and I glowed with pride when Claude called me a ‘water-baby’, my childhood nickname before my phobia stole it. Since that defining experience, I’ve been cliff jumping in Menorca and island hopping in Turkey: two water-themed holidays I never thought I’d do. But travel is helping me by freeing my mind and enriching my life. I might still squeal if something touches my foot in the sea, but like other challenging times I’ve faced, I hold on to my mum’s precious words, “be brave” – and I just keep swimming. Exploratory dives with Drift Divers Lembongan start from approx £40. Stay at Indiana Kenanga Luxury Villas from £90 per night.

“Trekking with tarantulas in Brazil helped my arachnophobia” By Elizabeth Sulis Kim “Who’d like to hold him?” says our guide, scooping something from the rainforest floor. Given his cupped hands, I know he isn’t referring to anything I’d like to hold. I’m a lifelong arachnophobe and the mere thought of spiders – their long spindly legs and rapid movement – has always made my skin crawl. And of course, he’s holding a tarantula. Sweat drips from my forehead; it’s 31°C and there’s high humidity. I back away from the group, but the cicada song reminds me I’m in the Amazon; here you can’t escape the forest life and I’m told there are spiders waiting to scurry across my feet or climb up my legs at any time. I had wanted to visit the Amazon and get lost in the river’s tributaries since reading Eva Ibbotson’s Journey To The River Sea as a child. But I knew it came with a caveat. I wasn’t intimidated by the malariaridden mosquitos, piranhas or jaguars – my biggest fear was encountering spiders way more sinister than the house ones that terrified me at home. Still, making this trip was my biggest dream, so I flew 16 hours to Manaus in Brazil for a two-week Amazon group tour, which included sleeping in the open forest, above a carpet of spiders. After staying in a jungle lodge for a week, trekking the forest and swimming in the river, while looking out for sloths, pink river dolphins, caimans and exotic birds, the final leg of our trip involved heading to a more remote part of the rainforest to set up camp. AKA, the part I’d been dreading. Our camp, reached by canoe and a two-hour hike, looked like every other place under the canopy: dark, humid and

inhospitable to humans. And 100% the sort of place where spiders like to hang out. I wasn’t mentally prepared, but by that point there was no going back. At dusk, we tied our hammocks between trees and three of us left camp in search of plants to use as plates at dinner. But five minutes in, my torch hit the forest floor and three tarantulas scuttled past my feet into the darkness. “They’re everywhere,” laughed one of the guys. Feeling freaked out, I went back to camp, but I couldn’t help but wonder what I’d missed out on. That night, I got into my hammock and mosquito net cocoon and imagined the world’s largest spider, a Goliath bird-eating spider, jumping from a tree, landing on the net. I’d been told I wouldn’t see it, I’d just hear it. I listened for sounds of life, but the cacophony of the forest calmed me and eventually I fell asleep. The next morning, I was proud of myself for surviving the night – and on the way back to the lodge, our guide picked up another tarantula. I didn’t hold it but, to my surprise, I didn’t retreat either. Instead, I stepped forward and watched it, albeit warily. ‘This is its forest, not mine, and I hope I’ve been a good guest,’ I thought. Today, am I completely cured of my fear? No. But that form of exposure therapy helped me more than I could have hoped. I still have days when spiders cause me to leave the room, but I’ve realised it’s not the spiders – it’s my anxieties honing in on something to be anxious about. I’ve learnt adventure means pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone. On my last night in the jungle, it was hard to distinguish the fireflies from the stars reflecting on the river, but spiders didn’t even cross my mind. The unknown can be a terrifying but beautiful place. Fly to Manaus via Miami or São Paulo. Five nights at The Ararinha Jungle Lodge, plus one night in the jungle, from £210 with Amazon Gero Tours.

“I faced my fear of heights – by hurling myself out of a plane above Switzerland”

Photographs: Getty Images

By Radhika Sanghani I’m 13,000ft above land and can see the snowy Swiss Alps surrounding the glassy surface of Lake Thun. In other circumstances, I’d be struck by the breathtaking view. But right now, I’m holding my breath, sitting on the edge of a plane, my legs dangling. I’m attached to a skydiving instructor and he’s yelling at me to “JUMP!” But I can’t. My entire body is frozen by fear, the wind is deafening and all I can think is: ‘I’m going to die.’ I never thought I’d say yes to a skydive. I hate heights – usually, just the thought of being on a tiny plane is enough for me to break out in a sweat. This is all heightened by my anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder, both of which I was diagnosed with after surviving a fatal coach crash several years ago. My fear can be irrational, which is why I wouldn’t just be terrified about the parachute not opening. For me, the real threat is surrendering to a situation where I have to completely rely on someone else, or worse, the elements. It’s put me off everything from skiing (what if I lose control?) to taking risks in my career (what will happen if I change industries?). But after years of this holding me back, I decided to face it once and for all. So, last November, I booked a solo trip to Switzerland’s Interlaken region renowned for its paragliding, rafting and, of course, skydiving. The plane ride up was overwhelmingly tense, I couldn’t even smile at the instructor’s jokes – I was too busy trembling with nerves. When he

told me to sit on the edge, I’ve never not wanted to do something more, but when he threatened to push me, I knew it was time for me to ‘lose control’ and surrender to the sky. I shut my eyes, took the biggest breath of my life – and let myself fall forward. The sensation was more brutal than I’d imagined. We free-fell at 200mph and the wind tore through my hair. I saw bits of mountain, grass, sky, and realised I was tumbling. I screamed non-stop, but after about 40 seconds, I was forced to take a deep breath. As I took that life-saving gasp of air, I can’t remember a time I’d felt so alive. The moment was interrupted by my instructor shouting: “I’m going to open the parachute.” I thought I’d be relieved, but to my amazement, I was almost enjoying it. As we glided back down to the ground, I felt giddy with adrenaline. By the time I got back to the Salzano Hotel, the exhilaration had worn off, but I couldn’t stop smiling. I had no idea I was capable of facing my fears head on like that; it made me realise that perhaps I’m braver than I thought. My anxiety hasn’t magically disappeared, but now I recognise that it doesn’t have to stop me from taking risks. Things that used to trigger my anxiety, like pitching an idea in a meeting or turning up to an event where I don’t know anyone, don’t feel as scary. Once you’ve had the courage to throw yourself out of a plane, a work rejection pales in comparison. Who knows what else I’m capable of? For the first time in years, I’m ready to find out. Skydives from £300 with Skydive Switzerland. Stay at the Salzano Hotel from £79. O

Real Techniques 2 Miracle Complexion Sponges, £5.99. These sponges allow you to custom-build your foundation coverage. “Use the sponge dry for full coverage or damp it down a little for a dewy glow,” advises Nic.

HOW WE WEAR IT: Seeing your squad straight after work? Apply your perfume fresh from a shower or bath – the moisture will help lock the scent onto your skin and last all day. Hot date? Treat your hair to a little spritz or apply to your brush before running through to the ends. As your hair moves, you’ll enjoy a fresh wave of fragrance. Birthday brunch? Spray onto your pulse points – wrists, neck, inside your elbows. But here’s a twist: don’t rub your wrists together as the heat will alter the top notes.

JUVÉDERM Want to know more? Get the lowdown to make an informed choice: Hyaluronic acid (HA) – a molecule that holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water – occurs naturally in the body, but levels start to deplete with age. Given that hydrated skin means plumper, dewy skin, losses contribute to visible ageing. Injectable filler Juvéderm is made from HA, and can be used to redefine the chin and jawline, contour cheekbones, smooth lines and add volume to lips, for natural-looking effects that last from nine months up to two years.

Tweakments: know what’s right for you HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR AESTHETIC CONSULTATION Whether you’re considering aesthetic treatments or don’t think they’re for you, it pays to know the facts, so you can make an informed decision. You want to feel you’re in safe hands, right? We find out more from the experts at Allergan – makers of dermal filler Juvéderm and body-contouring treatment CoolSculpting – and round up the four must-ask questions to get the most out of your consultation.

РЕЛИЗ ПОДГОТОВИЛА ГРУППА "What's News" VK.COM/WSNWS

COOLSCULPTING Yes? No? Maybe? It’s your choice, but if you are interested, here’s what you need to know: CoolSculpting is a non-surgical treatment that contours the body, with little to no downtime*. It works by gently freezing fat cells in areas such as the abdomen, chin and upper arms, causing them to break down without harming the surrounding tissue. The body then naturally** eliminates the fat cells.

Interested? Research the treatment first, then book in for a consultation and ask your practitioner the following questions to ensure your results are everything you hope for. 1. What are your credentials? For injectables, the practitioner should be a trained doctor, dentist or nurse. You should be asking how long they’ve been using the products for, and for a record of their experience. 2. Is this the right product and treatment for me? Be clear about why you’re interested in a treatment and how you hope to look/feel afterwards. Ask which options are most suitable and for a realistic idea of what can be achieved, plus whether there are any risks/side effects. 3. What’s the treatment plan? Ask for a step-by-step breakdown, so you fully understand the procedure. Find out what follow-up support is provided post-treatment.

Juvéderm is the world’s No1-selling dermal filler. UK/0561/2018h Date of preparation January 2019

4. Have you treated similar patients and can I see examples? As well as reading trusted reviews (Save Face and RealSelf are excellent resources), ask to see before and after photos of the practitioner’s work and check out their social accounts. You may also be able to attend an open evening or chat with people who have had the treatment you’re considering. If necessary, go elsewhere for a second opinion. Use juvederm.co.uk and coolsculpting.co.uk to find a qualified medical aesthetics practitioner near you and book a consultation.

THE ULTIMATE MULTITASKING SPRITZ

РЕЛИЗ ПОДГОТОВИЛА ГРУППА "What's News" VK.COM/WSNWS

Where do you get your inspiration from? “In all female bodies: in a gym changing room or on a beach, I often find myself thinking, ‘I must remember the line of that curve.’ However, I find myself most inspired when looking at the work of other artists.”

How do you want women to feel when they see your work? “I want women to feel empowered and think twice about mentally criticising their bodies. We should be celebrating them for what they can do.”

Artist in residence MEET THE ARTIST CHAMPIONING AN EMPOWERING REINVENTION OF THE FEMALE FORM Not only are Venetia Berry’s paintings beautiful (serious #WallGoals), we’re also loving them as bold symbols of the growing body-neutrality movement, which celebrates bodies of all types, without exceptions. Amen to that. In her nude paintings, race, status, size, gender – none of it matters. Venetia renders her figures as flowing, abstract curves in dreamy pastel tones – reclaiming the female form for a new generation of art lovers. We meet the artist to find out more about her work, on show at the GLAMOUR Beauty Festival. venetiaberry.com

Which artists do you admire? “I love the work of Jessalyn Brooks, she perfectly abstracts the female form, without losing its essence. I also love Alexa Coe’s work. She manages to encapsulate the female form through one sweeping line.”

V E N E T I A B E R R Y AT T H E G L A M O U R B E A U T Y F E S T I VA L Look out for Venetia’s beautiful artworks all over the walls of this year’s GLAMOUR Beauty Festival – and, of course, on the fabulous goodie bag you’ll get to take home.

What drew you to the female nude? “I grew up in a world that celebrates the size 6 white female, nothing else. This doesn’t reflect society as a whole and puts pressure on women to conform, so the idea of body neutrality really resonates with me. It’s vital for me to portray a woman who is relatable to all.”
