Here’s What Team STELLAR Is Loving This Week

It’s the weekend, the sun is out, and we’re ready to lounge outside and not do a whole lot else.

Before that though, let’s take a moment to check in and see what the team has been loving this week.

… Trick’n wings

Back in the day, I loved chicken. Now, however, as a pescatarian, I still love chicken… just not eating it.

That’s alright though because there are plenty of meat-free alternatives on the market, and they’re genuinely delicious.

Sons of Butchers’ Trick’n Wings are next level. Legit. They’re crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and go absolutely amazing with some Frank’s Hot Sauce.

They’re also completely plant based. Amazing.

… Translating, in style

@stellarmagazine We translated our menus using Google Translate, we took pics, and we even asked Gemini for some travel tips.. 👑 #fyp #invite #henstesth #dublin8 ♬ champagne – G Sounds

Picture the scene: you’re abroad, you’re eating, you’re not really understanding the menu but you’re ready to wing it anyway.

Then you take out your new Google Pixel 9a (in pink, obviously), go to the camera app, and translate the entire menu, in just a few seconds.

Such was the experience of Team STELLAR this week (without the abroad element, of course), in Hen’s Teeth when we indulged in a Korean feast and tried out the translate feature on the new Google Pixel.

The new phone is powered by AI, which means it’s constantly learning and adapting, giving you the best experience whether you’re on holidays or not.

Gemini can help you plan trips, scope out new places, and organise your life, while the incredible camera (it really is next level), has new features allowing you to add yourself to pictures you aren’t even in, and remove people from the background with ease.

This may just be the future…

… Crisp wine

Summer is fast approaching, and if you’re planning some serious evenings relaxing outside with a cool glass of wine in hand, you’re not alone.

DrinkWell, the leading online retailer of lower-calorie, zero-sugar wines and beers, has finally officially launched in Ireland – and oh yes, we’ve been indulging. 

With a mission to offer full-flavour alcoholic beverages that align with health-conscious lifestyles, DrinkWell brings its extensive range of products to Irish consumers looking for a lighter way to imbibe.

Our fav has got to be the TRACES Rosé – a succulent, light rosé from the south of France, combining notes of red berries with herbaceous notes. Yum.

… A sulphate-free shampoo

I recently got extensions with Platinum Expert Hair, and it’s safe to say I am digging my new look.

It’s subtle, it’s light, and it gives my bob far more movement that it had before.

I may not be an extensions veteran, but I do know a thing or two about how to look after them – one of the most important things being the use of a sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner.

OGX recently introduced New Lipi Pro Shield – a new formula that supercharges OGX’s renowned hair repair technologies with double the amount of lipid and protein protection to defend hair fibres against damage.

It’s the perfect range for looking after my stennos, and leaves my hair feeling fresh and super healthy.
