Fans of the brand have been raving about this makeup combination, with one five star beauty buff sharing their thoughts on the set: “I recently tried the Charlotte Tilbury Glossy Nude Pink Lip Duo, and it instantly earned a spot in my everyday makeup routine. The set includes the Lip Cheat in Iconic Nude and the Collagen Lip Bath in Pillow Talk, two products that work beautifully together to create a naturally fuller, glossy lip look.

“The lip liner glides on effortlessly, defining the shape while helping the gloss stay in place. The Collagen Lip Bath adds a plumping, high-shine finish that feels nourishing and never sticky. What I love most about this duo is how wearable the nude-pink shade is – it’s soft, elegant, and versatile enough to complement both day and evening looks. If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to achieve polished lips with a touch of glam, this duo is a must-try. “

Someone else added: “This is the first lip gloss I have ever used, I’ve always been put off as didn’t like the idea of stickiness but this actually doesn’t feel sticky and it lasted all day even after eating food. I was very impressed and it’s a natural colour so it’s going to be great in the summer and the lip liner works well with it. “

A third simply stated: “Natural look with perfect colour. ” Although for one person, the kit wasn’t quite as impressive – especially the lip gloss’ applicator, as they explained: “The nude shades are so pretty. The applicator of the gloss is a pretty heart shape but it’s not the best for application. Doesn’t take too much product on it. “

The Welsh dancer was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023 and shared her journey on social media

Amy Dowden has opened up about the ‘hard slog’ of recovery following her battle with cancer. The Strictly Come Dancing star, 35, underwent a mastectomy and intense chemotherapy after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023.

Amy documented her journey on social media, happily announcing in February 2024 that she had ‘no evidence of the disease.’ However, the Welsh dancer has now revealed that recovery took longer than expected, which she described as a ‘very scary time’.

Speaking on the Breast Cancer Uncovered podcast, she said: “All of a sudden my diary was blank because I was cancelling dance shows, I was cancelling up and coming work. And I didn’t know: was I going to be dancing again?

“Was I going to be working again? It was a very scary time and you don’t know when you are going to get back to full health. There is no guarantee you will. ” Breast Cancer Uncovered is a five-part series which explores the ‘realities of breast cancer’, touching on topics like diagnosis, recovery and even diet.

Amy worked with breast cancer surgeon, Naren Basu, to film the series, which is available to listen to on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts. During this episode’s conversation, she continued: “For me, if somebody who had such a full-on loaded diary to all of a sudden then to be cancelling everything and not know when your life was going to resume was, for me particularly, was really tough.”

She also added: “I thought that was it. Life was going to resume. I didn’t realise that hard slog then of recovery and how long that actually took.”

Possible signs of breast cancer

Amy often uses her platform to highlight breast cancer awareness and encourages women to frequently examine themselves for crucial warning signs. Amongst potential indicators to watch for are lumps, swelling, and unusual changes in breast size or shape, alongside other symptoms:

• Change in the skin of your breast, such as dimpling (it may look like orange peel) or redness, which may be harder to see on black or brown skin
• Change in the shape or look of your nipple, such as it turning inwards (inverted nipple) or a rash on it (it may look like eczema)
• Nipple discharge (if you’re not pregnant or breastfeeding), which may have blood in it
• Lumps or swelling in your breast, chest, or armpit
• Change in size or shape of 1 or both breasts, or either side of your chest – it’s common for breasts to be different sizes, but check for any changes that are not normal for you
• Sores or ulcers on your chest

Advice from the NHS also adds: “Checking your breasts or chest regularly helps you learn what looks and feels normal for you. This makes it easier to notice any changes that could be a sign of a condition such as breast cancer.

“You should try to check your breasts or chest about once a month. “

How can I get a breast screening?

The NHS invites females registered with a GP to take a breast screening every three years between the ages of 50 and 71. These invitations are generally sent in the post.

“If you’re a trans man, trans woman or are non-binary you may be invited automatically, or you may need to talk to your GP surgery or call the local breast screening service to ask for an appointment,” the health body adds. “You need to be registered with a GP surgery to be invited for breast screening. “

However, anyone who notices unusual changes in their breasts is encouraged to seek GP advice, regardless of their age. The NHS adds: “Lumps in the breasts can have lots of different causes. They’re often caused by something harmless like a non-cancerous tissue growth (fibroadenoma) or a build-up of fluid (breast cyst).

“Sometimes, a breast lump can be a sign of something serious like breast cancer. Do not try to self-diagnose the cause of your lump – always see a GP. “

This dress is ideal for pairing with everything from court heels to knee-high boots because it is midi-length. This outfit can be easily dressed up for the cold weather by layering over a longline wool coat and adding some sexy suede boots.

Kate paired the midi with a pair of burgundy heels, a pair of simple gold hoop earrings, and a tonal look.

It’s not just Kate who’s been nailing the daytime looks this week with Lorraine viewers praising Christine Lampard’s high street faux leather dress. The exact dress is River Island, and is already proving to be a hit, as Cat Deeley sported the same dress on This Morning just this month.

Rapper Liam hAnnaidh, who goes by the name Mo Chara, is back in court today. What he is accused of and what is anticipated to happen next is given in this image.

A member of controversial Irish rap band Kneecap is back in court in London today to see if the charge against him will be thrown out by a judge.

But what is 27-year-old Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh – who performs under the name Mo Chara – charged with? And what has the Belfast band – who were recently banned from entering Canada and forced to cancel gigs in America because of it – said about the allegation?

After allegedly displaying a flag in support of the terror group Hezbollah during a performance at London’s O2 Forum in Kentish Town on November 21, 2024, g hAnnaidh was charged with a terror offence in May of that year.

Additionally, the group has seen concert cancellations after the group’s concert footage showed a member yelling “up Hamas, up Hezbollah.” It is against the law to support Hamas and Hezbollah in the UK because they are both prohibited.

The artist was accused of displaying the flag “in such a way or under such circumstances as to arouse reasonable suspicion that he supports a prohibited organization,” according to Met Police.

The Met’s counter-terrorism command was informed of an online video from the event on April 22 according to the force. The Crown Prosecution Service approved the above charge after conducting an investigation.

Following the release of the terror charge, the band later denied the allegations and said, “We will fight you in court.”

The band frequently uses the phrase “Free Palestine” during their gigs and interviews to declare that “14, 000 babies are about to die of starvation in Gaza, with food being sent by the world sitting on the other side of a wall, and once more the British establishment is focused on us.”

We vehemently defend ourselves against this “offence” and deny it. Political policing is involved here. This distracts you from the real world. The story is not ours. Genocide is a. They use an “anti-terror law” against us for displaying a flag on stage because they profit from the genocide.

The statement continued: “A charge not serious enough to even warrant their ‘crown court’, instead a court that doesn’t have a jury. What’s the objective? To restrict our travel ability. To prevent us speaking to young people across the world. To silence voices of compassion. To prosecute artists who dare to speak out.

The powerful in Britain have supported slaughter and famine in Gaza, just as they have done in Ireland for centuries, instead of standing up for innocent people or the international law principles they claim to uphold. Then they assert justification, as they do now. The real terrorists are the IDF units, and everyone can see that when they equip and fly spy plane missions.

We support the people with all our strength. You and the war criminals are at odds with you. On the right side of history, we are. You’re not, though. In court, we’ll fight you. We’ll triumph. Palestine that is free.

HAnnaidh has since appeared in court and is battling to have the case dismissed. Kneecap have previously denied the charge and said they would “vehemently defend” “themselves” despite not having entered a formal plea. Additionally, they “emphasize” that they do not support Hamas or Hezbollah.

As he appeared in court in Dublin last month, the rapper received the support of hundreds of fans as well as those who gathered there. People waved Irish and Palestinian flags as well as free Mo Chara, which “could be heard.”

When he next appears in court this morning, more supporters are anticipated. Due to a leak in the area following a burst water main, the hearing will now take place at Woolwich Crown Court.

Prosecutor Michael Bisgrove argued in his earlier court appearance that “ghAnnaidh was well within his rights to voice his opinions and his solidarity, just like everyone else is.” The video recording that shows Mr. O’Hanna displaying and flaunting the Hezbollah flag in “up Hamas, up Hezbollah” in November of last year is a wholly different thing, he added.

The charge was brought more than six months after the alleged crime, so Brenda Campbell, who is defending it, is attempting to have it dropped. If we are correct, this court has no jurisdiction, and the case is over, she said.

However, the prosecution has argued that filing a criminal charge is not required until the defendant makes his or her first court appearance. Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring must now decide whether or not he has the authority to hear the case.

Rumours have been swirling that Prince Harry wants his son, Prince Archie, to attend the same elite boarding school he and his brother Prince William did

Prince Harry’s team have issued a statement after rumours swirled that the Sussexes were looking at a top UK school for Prince Archie.

Both Prince William and Harry spent their secondary school years at the elite Eton College, one of the most expensive boarding schools in the UK. A stone’s throw from Windsor Castle, they were never too far away from their grandparents, the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, while they were there.

Reports this week have claimed that Harry had been considering sending his son Archie, six, to the same establishment when the time comes – and the Duke’s team has now issued a statement to the Mirror regarding the rumours.

The reports saw unnamed sources claim that Harry got a lot out of his time at Eton, particularly in the form of lifelong pals, and that he was keen for his son to enjoy the same privileges.

However, Harry’s team has swiftly come out with a statement about whether Eton College might be in Prince Archie’s future.

“I can confirm that Prince Harry has not registered Archie for Eton, and the Duke has no plans to send his son to Eton,” a spokesperson told the Mirror.

Anonymous pals speaking to the Mail alleged that during Harry’s recent trip to the UK, he told them, “Harry wants to educate the children here in the UK.

“Harry feels his children are missing out on the extensive family network that their niece and nephews are enjoying,” they continued.

“Harry wants his children to have the very best education. He has retained his closest friendship group of confidants from his days at school at Ludgrove and Eton. He wants that for his own children.”

The source further claimed that King Charles knew about the idea and was “delighted” but that Meghan would likely be less keen on the idea of sending her children to school in another country.

Sources echoed the rumours to the Daily Beast, saying: “Harry has put Archie down. It’s fair to say he had mixed feelings about the school when he left, but looking back on it, he can appreciate the good,” one said.

A further “old schoolfriend” said to the publication, “For William and Harry, Eton is really the only sensible choice when it comes to British schools because of security.

“There are so many high-profile and politically exposed kids there that the whole school has ridiculous security provisions already. It’s seven day boarding, lots of kids fly back and forth at the beginning and end of term, so why shouldn’t Archie?

“The school certainly wouldn’t be prejudiced against him. Statistically, you have to imagine Eton would be a hell of a lot safer than an American school thanks to their gun laws.”

These claims have since been denied by Harry’s team.

After being spotted with a OnlyFans model half his age two months after his divorce from Isla Fisher, Cohen is reportedly dating someone else.

Sacha Baron Cohen is reportedly dating an OnlyFans model half his age following his £120 million divorce from ex-wife Isla Fisher earlier this summer.

The 53-year-old comedian, who got famous playing controversial characters like Ali G and Borat, was recently spotted having dinner with 27-year-old Hannah Palmer, sparking rumours the pair are now an item.

They are believed to have met at a celebrity party for New Zealand filmmaker Taika Waititi’s 50th birthday party in Ibiza last month. Hannah is said to be good pals with the Jojo Rabbit director’s pop star wife Rita Ora, 34, which was why she was invited to the exclusive sit-down dinner that ended with a party in the private villa’s nightclub.

“Hannah is a super fun girl who is as clever as she is beautiful,” according to a source. A date with her would be very unusual for a man, Sacha. She really caught people’s attention.

Describing their recent meet up, which reportedly saw the pair leave an LA restaurant separately but getting into the same car, an onlooker told The Sun: “Sacha and Hannah arrived at 8.30pm. They spent two hours inside and seemed deep in conversation.

Despite their age difference, they seemed to be getting along really well and having a lot to talk about. They entered the same car as they had earlier entered.

Hannah, who has more than two million followers on Instagram and often posts bikini and holiday snaps from her travels around the world, was seen leaving the venue in a leopard print mini dress and knee high boots, which she accessorised with a classic Chanel handbag.

For the occasion, a casual Sacha donned a blue T-shirt, striped shirt, and flat cap. Hannah is reportedly scheduled to attend a Paris Hilton party later, demonstrating her popularity in celebrity circles.

The LA-based OnlyFans star, who is said to have banked £4 million last year, spent the summer jetting around Ibiza and St Tropez mainly wearing in a bikini.

And she isn’t the only one showing off her body – after Sacha recently underwent a transformation for his new role as Marvel supervillain Mephisto. Sharing snaps of his new ripped physique as he appeared on the cover of Men’s Fitness UK in July, the actor proudly showed off his chiselled abs and toned arms.

The actor claimed to have contacted celebrity trainer Alfonso Moretti to ask him for his phone number after explaining how he did it.

He responded, “I called Matthew and asked for assistance. He finally gave me Alfonso’s contact after a few inquiries about who I was and how I had gotten his number. He then called Alfonso on FaceTime, who forced him to remove his underwear while we spoke.

Alfonso and Sacha were given a short window of time to transform their bodies, and Sacha was given the task of being “consistent” by performing “100 push-ups per day.” Additionally, he focused on quick, low-carb diets and protein-rich diets.

The wardrobe team spent £3,600 to change his costumes after he had undergone a significant transformation, and it paid off in two weeks.

Sacha told followers, “This is not AI,” while sharing the magazine cover on his Instagram Stories. I can handle this because I’m egotistical. He continued, “Some celebrities use Ozempic, some use private chefs, and some use personal trainers.” I completed each of the three.
