Flawless Beauty

I hate to use this page for expressing my personal emotions rather than my opinions on all things fashion, but a pretty huge change happened in my life and I feel it is effecting my life in a massive way. Me and my boyfriend of two years broke up on Wednesday. I've done lots of winging and moaning about it since then, and probably will for a while longer, but from past experience know I cope better with heartache if I'm concentrating on something else. So here is the part where I focus my energy on something more constrictive. I've started drawing and painting again, and although its not all bunnies and rainbows, its good to actually do something creative. I've also decided that I'm going to try my hand at modelling. In case you didn't know I'm a towering 5' 11" and although I might not have the right looks, there's no harm in trying is there?

So I'm going to start by regenerating my skin. All my life I've had terrible skin. I've always been allergic to face paints, skin creams and any type of soap on my face, even the slightest change in water makes my skin break out. But I've noticed my skin has became a lot less sensitive recently. This might be because in the past few years sensitive skin products have become a lot cheaper and most skin products now are more natural based and gentle for your skin. The one thing I am good with when it comes to my skin is that I always wear face cream with an SPF factor, which, even in the winter, is important. I am going to try out some cheap products from Superdrug and build up a daily skin care routine. Usually I just wake up and clean my face with a make-up wipe, then moisturise after. I never clean my face on a night time, mostly because I forget, but I think its time I start trying to remember. So here is my new routine plan:

1. Wash any leftover make-up off with a face wipe (I use Boots Essentials Cucumber Cleansing Wipes for all skin types because they are really good at taking make-up off with and smell really good).
5. Finally brighten under my eyes with Natural High Brightening Eye Cream.
6. Then on a night time wash my make-up off with a face wipe and moisturise after.

I was also contemplating using Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Facial Wash because I love the smell of pink grapefruit, however because the Clean & Clear Morning Energy products are on offer as buy 2 for £4.99, I'm going to save my money for the time being.

This is all so I can have more flawless, clear, glowing skin and will look better in photos without any editing or make-up on. I'm going to send some photos to a couple of agencies and audition for Britain's next top model next year too.
