“January Glow-Up: My Faves for a Fabulous Start to 2025”
Hi my girlies,
Hi girlies! 🌟 First of all, Happy 2025! I hope you all kicked off the year exactly how you wanted. Did you set some new goals? Let me know in the comments—I’d love to hear them.
Honestly, I’m still writing “2024” everywhere, but I’ve started the new year in the best way: close to my family, enjoying the good weather, and feeling amazing. That’s why I thought it would be the perfect time to share my favorite products from 2024 and some absolute must-haves to help you beat those January blues.
I’ll also spill the tea on the hottest hair and fashion trends right now, plus share a few special events happening in London. Let’s get into it!
Hair and skin secrets:
Hair Love: The Product I Can’t Live Without
AMIKA The Wizard Detangling Primer
Girlies, this product is LIFE. If you haven’t tried it yet, you need to! It’s a multitasker that works as a heat protectant and a primer, leaving your hair silky smooth. Use it on damp hair before blow-drying, or on dry hair before using a hot tool like a curler or straightener. Trust me, your hair will feel softer than ever.

I’m honestly tempted to make a TikTok about it because the world needs to know! If you give it a try, let me know in the comments.
Skin Goals: The Secret to a Winter Glow
Bondy Sand, Tanning Drops (Dark)
Okay, real talk: winter makes me so pale, and I miss how I look with a bit of a tan. These drops have been a game-changer for me. Just two big drops after your favorite moisturizer, apply it evenly to your face and neck, and let it dry for three minutes. Then, either do your makeup or let the glow do its thing.
I promise you’ll look radiant and feel amazing—it’s like summer in a bottle!
Hair & Fashion Trends 2025: Effortless Beach Waves & Hooded snood.
Hair trend
Messy beach waves are so in right now, and they’re giving off that “I woke up like this” chic vibe. Here’s how to nail the look:
Use a curler or straightener and curl only the mid-lengths of your hair. Keep the ends straighter for that effortless feel.
Finish with a good texturizing spray. I love Kevin Murphy’s Bedroom Hair Spray (smells divine!) or Sam McKnight Modern Spray for that lived-in texture.
Pair your waves with cool trainers and a textured wool sweater for a laid-back but elevated look.
Fashion trend
When I tell you hooded snood are the IT accessory right now, I’m not exaggerating! At first, I wasn’t sold, but my sister Sandra convinced me, and OMG, I’m obsessed. It’s stylish, cozy, and honestly so versatile.
I recently grabbed one, and I can’t wait to style it. Keep an eye on my Instagram @loren26 for a post featuring it soon!
