Q&A With Tabitha Webb

Q&A With Tabitha Webb

Skincare never looked so stylish!

To celebrate the launch of our exclusive Tabitha Webb x PRAI Gift Set, available exclusively at Marks & Spencer, we caught up with the celebrated British fashion designer to chat all things style, skincare and getting better with age.

Available exclusively at M&S as a free gift (worth £63.50) when you purchase any two full-size PRAI products, the limited-edition set includes our best-selling Ageless Throat & Decolletage Creme, Ageless Night Creme and a beautifully designed Tabitha Webb scarf featuring her iconic hand-drawn chevron print. So, that means if you treat your neck to our award-winning Ageless Throat & Decolletage Serum and K-Beauty Ageless Throat & Decollatge Hydrogel Mask, this gift set and scarf are yours for FREE. 

From her effortless beauty routine to styling the scarf, her desert island beauty essential and the inspiration behind her latest novel, read on to discover more about the woman behind the print. We even discuss her can't-live-without snacks from the iconic M&S Food Hall... 

Q: For anyone new to Tabitha Webb, how would you describe your brand in three
words?

Colourful, brave, timeless.

Q: Your chevron print has become instantly recognisable. What inspired this special
design for PRAI?

I love stripes, and if I could everything in my life covered in stripes, I would! But I wanted something that was more identifiable for Tabitha Webb, so we started playing with chevrons, and it worked well for us. It is a print that can be colourful, monochrome, transeasonal, smart or casual - and it can develop every season!  For PRAI we wanted something softer, so we added the hand drawn element, which I think has worked beautifully. 

Q: The kit contains our best-selling Ageless Throat & Decolletage Creme and Night Creme - please talk us through your AM and PM skincare routines.

I am a beauty minimalist! It is ALL about the creams for me. So, I start my day with washing my face in cold water, and then applying the PRAI ageless throat and decolletage creme which I love! As I have aged, I have noticed my jaw line start to sag, so this is the perfect thing for me. And in the evening, I clean my face, and reapply the evening decolletage creme. 

Q: What’s your summer beauty essential?

Lip balm - I take it everywhere! 

Q: What’s the best beauty advice you’ve ever received?

Age naturally and gracefully. Let your face tell your story.

Q: How would you style the neck scarf? Around your neck, wrist, tied to your summer basket... 

The scarf is so flexible! I adore it tied in my hair for a hot summers day when I am dreaming of Provence, and I also love it around my neck with an open neck shirt. I also have one always tied to my handbag!

Q: What’s your favourite thing about getting older?

Age brings confidence and certainty, and I love that. The feeling that you can do anything, and it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. 

Q: Neck care is having a real moment. How do you take care of yours? 

I drink a lot of water to stay hydrated, and I am very aware of keeping my shoulders down and back straight so that my neck is elongated. A long, beautiful neck is a great thing!

Q: If you could only take one beauty product to a desert island, what would it be?

Hmmm, after my PRAI Creme...my YSL mascara...and my lip balm!

Q: You've just written your debut book. Tell us a little about it - and why now felt like
the right time to write it?

This is my second novel, and it's based in the countryside in England. I have drawn from a lot of my experiences from living out in Hampshire, and it's just a fun saucy jaunt about relationships, it never being too late, and the joy of finding a hot farmer!

Q: Our Scarf and Neck Cream Gift Set is exclusive to M&S, what’s your favourite thing to buy in the Food Hall?

My 8 year is obsessed with the Madeira cake, my 14-year-old with the noodles, and don't judge me, but the cool Tortillas are my kryptonite....
