I’m distracting myself this morning whilst Dearly Beloved transports our doggies to their ‘home boarding’. It’s heart breaking to go away and leave the little fellows behind, but they are hard work and they will enjoy their holiday with Christine and Gary and they will receive the very best of care. This morning, I’ve been indulging in my £1 beauty treatment!

In my time, I’ve had my upper lip and brow waxed - £12, a deep moisturising facial £15 and manicure £7.50. OK! Admittedly, it was a huge expense, but it was a treat at the time. I’m also acutely aware of the aging process and pay particular attention to looking after my skin. Here’s how I look after my skin and my pennies.

I now wax my own eyes brows and upper lip and the waxing kit costs £5.50 and there are twenty wax strips in there and two of them does my lip and brows - 55p!

The cold cream is just delicious at £2.42 and, even though I use it daily, it lasts almost a month, so that means a deep moisturing cleanse for 8p! I then cleanse it all off with a warm damp flannel and then rinse and splash with cold water. I’ve used Aldi’s Q10 anti-wrinkle cream for years now and at £1.99, there is nothing cheaper out there and as I’m not lined with wrinkles, I’ll assume it’s working.
So, here’s Froogs, trying to keep young and beautiful! With one of my ‘where’s Wally’ socks being used as a headband, with my moisturising mask! And, doing it all on the cheap!
