HALGLOWE’EN has entered the chat. 🧡👻 A little orange can lift the greyest day, and I’m taking that into skincare too. EASY GLOWING + GLOWCOLIC bring vitamin C and glow to the party. spatogo.templespa.com/melanielampr... #Orangeween #Spalloween

If your skin is starting to feel a bit mummified by the colder weather, QUENCH is a very good place to start. 🧟‍♀️ Deep hydration mask, warm flannel, ten quiet minutes, considerably less crypt-like afterwards... spatogo.templespa.com/melanielampr... #Spalloween #MondayMask

Sometimes self-care is nothing grander than noticing the brightest thing in front of you. Today, that’s marigolds. Loud, cheerful, gloriously orange little things, getting on with lighting up the day. 🧡🌼 #Orangeween #SelfCare

MOST REVEALING contains sweet orange oil and actually fizzes and bubbles on your face. Frankly, if I was peeping into a cauldron, this is exactly the sort of thing I’d expect to find in it. 🧙‍♀️🍊 Definitely skincare potion territory. #Orangeween #Spalloween spatogo.templespa.com/melanielampr...

October is back, which means so are two of my favourite seasonal excuses for nonsense. 🐈️ Custard Cream, the most pumpkin-like kitten in the place, is here to help me launch #Spalloween and #Orangeween. We have 31 days. This could get silly. 🎃

Just like that, we’ve tipped into autumn. 🍂 Today is the #AutumnEquinox, that lovely balancing point between light and dark. I did a little mindful leaf collecting too. Turnip helped, obviously. Chief Leaf Balancer. 🐈‍⬛🍁 #CatsOfBluesky

Rose arrived feral, frightened and a very young mum. She slowly learned to trust and became the sweetest, shy little girl. One of her cute quirks is standing up on her back legs for a stroke. Now she’s adopted and settling into her new home. 🖤 🐈‍⬛ #AdoptDontShop #RescueCats

Nursing kittens do not believe in orderly mealtimes. Why simply lie down when you can climb over your siblings, squash somebody underneath you and approach lunch as a full-contact acrobatic event?

My rescue/foster kitten Custard Cream has discovered Alley Cats from @mrrickygervais.bsky.social. Absolutely transfixed. And apparently already trying to work out how to join the gang. I think the review is in. #AlleyCats #Netflix #RickyGervais

One of my rescue kittens sits silhouetted in front of the television watching Netflix’s Alley Cats. On screen, a line-up of colourful animated cats faces towards the real kitten, making it look as though she has joined the gang.
