As for the latest news you need to know? FKA twigs<\/a> is set to headline the West Stage at All Points East<\/a> this Sunday, August 23, joining RAYE for a powerhouse female-led line-up. <\/p>\n

With a new album on the horizon and fresh off her summer<\/a> tour, twigs\u2019 appearance adds serious star power to a bill that includes Tyla, JADE, Jyoty and more. <\/p>\n

Expect visionary artistry and a taste of her next era, \u2018Afterglow\u2019. Oh, and if you still need tickets to the other All Points East days, there’s still tickets left for tonight (Barry Can’t Swim), August 22 and Sunday (The Maccabees), August 25 here<\/a>!<\/p>\n

All you need to do is add a spoonful to your brew and ta dahhhh!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Now, collagen might be trending, but new research from Vital Proteins<\/a> reveals most Brits still don\u2019t know why they need it – or how to take it. Despite 84% recognising collagen, only 1 in 10 actually use it, with myths and confusion holding many back. Vital Proteins is on a mission to clear things up and make collagen a staple in everyday wellness<\/a>. How good is that?<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"Dyson<\/a>\t<\/div>
