I'm getting older. It sucks. At 32 I feel like now is definitely the time to start trying to turn back the clock. I'll be the first to admit that I haven't always looked after my body. I've over eaten, I've smoked, I've been partial to the odd JD on a night out. I rarely get my hair cut, I can go a couple of days without really putting on a face of make up and I can count on one hand how many times in the last year I have got dressed up and worn a pair of heels. The more I type the more unattractive I sound. It's pretty depressing, eh?! Don't get me wrong I am not a monster, I just forget to spend time on myself. If I'm not looking in a mirror then I'm not thinking about how I look. I kind of think this is a good thing but perhaps I should make sure that I have that I have five or ten minutes in front of a mirror in the morning! I'm on a bit of a self improvement mission so I have bought loads of products to help me along the way...
Bio Oil - As a mother I've managed to pick up some rather pale (now) but still annoying stretchmarks. I've heard that Bio Oil is the best thing on the market (in my price range anyway!) to treat them so I thought I would give it a go, especially at Amazon's prices!
Nail Oil/Nail strengthener/Glass Nail File - In the last year I have stopped biting my nails but they are so weak that just as they are looking good they catch on everything and tear off! Hopefully with a bit of TLC they will be looking good in no time!
Intensive Foot Cream - My feet aren't the worst in the world but I have to admit they are the last thing that I think to pamper
Eye cream - I have wrinkles around my eyes guys! This is stressful! I am on the hunt for the best age reversing, youth mimicking, miracle cream but in the mean time I have gone for Garnier Ultralift. Fingers crossed!
Night cream - I have been pretty good at remembering to moisturise in the morning but I have bought myself some Garnier Ultralift Night Cream. Hopefully I'll notice a difference in the texture of my skin, after all dewy skin is the key to looking young!
Pearl Drops Beauty Sleep - I have used loads of teeth whiteners in the past but I've found a lot of them too harsh or too messy. This product looks like it is going to be fairly gentle and there are no mouth guards or strips, simply put a blob on your fingers, rub on your gums and you are good to go!
I'm going to use all of these as my new nightly routine and will keep you posted with feedback. With any luck before long I'll feel pampered and more comfortable in my skin!
What beauty products can't you live without and why? Any recommendations that you can send my way will be thoroughly appreciated!
