The May LIHA Letter

Blessed Beltane! It doesn’t feel like the beginning of Summer, but here we are!

There are still new shoots, fresh vibes new adventures to discover, or as a someone recently said in a beautifully succinct toast: “ To New friends and New ends!”

Heres what we are loving this month:

Doing: Tarun Nayar Modern Biology Field Trip – If you’ve seen this guy on Instagram or TikTok you will know how wonderful his field trips are! He has developed technology that can actually translate the sounds of flora, fauna and mushrooms which can then be played back in nature over headphones after you have foraged. We are headed to Bristol this weekend but he has dates throughout Europe this summer.

Eating: Farmer J Field Trays - The perfect food for this time of year. We are super late to discovering this one (as a rule we never stand in line for anything) Totally worth the wait. A field tray with Harissa Chicken, grains and a peach Trip CBD drink is a top tier lunch that balances energy and calm for those workdays when you need a little something extra.

Shopping: Mayfair Pharmacy – A delightful little pharmacy on Curzon street in the heart of old Mayfair with a wonderful carefully curated selection of products from around the world, including the phenomenal Biafine original formulation. Immaculate, engrossing and spotless, set aside some time to browse properly!

Listening: The Yusef Dayes Experience Live in Malibu - Absolutely stunning set both visually and sonically, filmed with a glorious Malibu sunset as the backdrop- perfect to feel those summer vibes even if we have grey skies! The cover of the legendary Portrait of Tracey is a beautiful tribute to Jaco Pastorius’ deliciously short, genre bending evergreen soundscape

Watching: Catching Fire, The Story of Anita Pallenberg - Just going in cold for this one with not too much googling just looking forward to some nostalgic discovery and a quiet lone afternoon cinema trip. All we know is she was a muse to Fellini, Warhol and the Rolling Stones, so looking forward to learning more about who she was as a woman and the inevitable ensuing of fantasies being an It Girl in a golden age of Pop Culture. And of course, the Fashion.

We want to know what you've been enjoying and what your recommendations are too, hit reply and let us know!

With love,

Liha and Abi

Love candles 🕯️ but arrived broken

Hello,
I was really excited to receive my package but unfortunately received the box of candles shattered inside. I took a photo and submitted the damage, and received a message that they were sorry this happened, however in order to receive another box of candles, I would have to wait until I use my promo code they gave me to place another order, then I would receive the candles again. I did not truly feel this was the best option for me especially because they were shipped from UK and I waited a while to receive my package, however it does guarantee that a customer must place another order in order to receive the candles again, which feels a bit unfair. I would think that you would promptly send another box without having to place another order because this is good customer service, and what brands should do if the package arrives damaged. It may be beneficial to pack these differently that they were packed in such a small box, a larger padded box would prevent this from happening especially when shipped over seas. Unfortunately, even though I truly like what I ordered and find it something I would like to keep in my routine, I may not order again due to the decision that I must place another order first, and the time frame for shipping to US. Hope this helps for other customers experiencing the same situation.
This was my first purchase, and it left a bit of a disappointing resolution for me.
Thanks, B

Double cleansing

I’ve started using this as the first step in my double cleanse and I love it. I used to think my combination skin couldn’t handle a cleanser like this but it cleans my skin and removes makeup etc without stripping the skin or leaving it feeling oily or clogging pores.

Amazing As Always

Use this for my son’s eczema and its wonderful- he won’t let me put any other creams on him now.

Absolute luxury in a bottle

I bought this again after trying it many years ago. Its heady scent and moisturising properties are just what my skin needs this summer. It’s made my skin soft and I feel great too.

Obsessed

I’ve been obsessed with the Idan oil for years so having the scent as a candle is a dream! The Queen Ida is just as beautiful. I also tried the Shea butter which is a new favourite - can’t wait to repurchase everything! Never gotten something from Liha I didn’t adore.
