I was roped into taking my daughter and her friends to a cosmetics shop. I am amazed at how the cosmetics chains have roped younger girls into the make up world. They do these ASMR videos with each other on iPads and the like, showcasing whatever new product they have managed to squeeze out of their parents and tapping their finger nails and rubbing surfaces to give you all these neat little presentations. It is a bit much. It alarms me. But then I am starting to feel like I am getting to an age where I should just assume I am out of touch with how it is for the next generation these days.
My daughter was telling me about Santal Blush because she is a massive Swiftie and says it was one of Taylor's favourite perfumes. We found a counter in David Jones that had it. I must admit, it's very good. And over the coming weeks some of you will be smelling it in your parcels. Fook me it is not cheap these days.
Stay tuned.
