Hi all,
My grooming routine varies daily, usually it is determined by advanced bookings and general apathy on my days off.
I am a moisturiser addict! I have vats of the stuff. My favourite, that I use every time I shower and before bed, is a really cheap but excellent Cocoa Butter from Wilkinsons. It's ?1.28!!! I moisturise my face with Simple and then a more expensive one before bed to stave off the wrinkles.
I exfoliate with those amazing scrub gloves twice a week, put a face mask on when I get 10 minutes to myself on Sunday.
When I am working, I shave my legs and armpits every other day and shave bikini if there is any hair. I've had most of it lasered off, but I top up the laser every couple of months. Pluck stray eyebrow hair. I give myself a full manicure and pedicure on Sunday and file the nasty hard skin on my feet every couple of days and moisturise with Heel Balm.
Now that it is summer I have to cover my horrendous tan lines with fake tan. The best one I have found is St. Moritz moose from TK Max ?3.99, applied with a tan mitt from Boots or Primark. It doesn't streak and leaves a really good tan that deepens when you reapply.
I trim my hair about every 3 months, or when it looks straggly and I have an amazing colourist who does my natural looking highlights every 6 weeks.
The GYM!!! I hate it. I am meant to work out 3 times a week, but haven't been for 2 months. I'm ok when I'm there, but I always have an excuse! Having a high metabolism really helps. When I do get there it is 20 mins on the cross trainer and 30 mins light weights. I will do a Body balance class if by some miracle I am not working when they are on.
Make up.... I have a work uniform. Bobby Brown Foundation and powder, define eyebrows, No.7 brown sparkly eyeshadow and eyeliner, Rimmel curved brush black mascara then Maybelline Full volume Mascara (the yellow waterproof one), a bit of blusher and Laura Mercier Miracle under eye concealer. I refuse to wear make up when I'm not working appart from a bit of mascara and blush if I look like shite.
Oh my goddess! Such vanity! I don't know where I fit it all in. All I know is that if I don't moisturise and keep up the regime, I feel manky and unfit for male consumption! My clients always comment on how silky my skin is, so it must be paying off!
