Beauty Nightmare!

Do you ever walk into a shop and get submerged by all the different array of products and brands on offer these days?

I do.

I consider myself a novice when it comes to things like make up or skin care or hair care. I was about 18 years old when I first wore make up. I went on a night out with my collage friends and they put make up on me.

18. Years. Old. I kid you not.

I was never that interested really. Most girls at school wore make up, (even some of the boys were sports a touch of eyeliner) But to me they always look silly with their orange faces, bright eye shadow, and over-the-top blusher. It wasn’t their fault, they were kids (sort of) and were still learning. I wasn’t a very confident person when I was young, I didn’t see myself as pretty or stylish and didn’t see the point of trying to improve my…ugliness shall we say.

Years have passed since then and (with a lot of help from my friends) I am starting to actually care about how I look and look after myself better.

But sometime it can be really daunting.

There is just too much choice out there and some of the stuff out there I have no idea what it is for.

So today I went out into the world and I brought myself some new thing. Now when I say “some” I really mean a lot. Half-price sale, say no more.

One of the things I brought today was quite unusually. It was Tea Tree BB Cream. Tea Tree oil is really good for the skin, it works wonders on troublesome spots as it is an antibacterial antiseptic and has soothing properties(apparently). It also has Witch Hazel in it. Don’t know my about Witch Hazel if I’m honest, but people rave about the stuff. These are things you tend to find in face washes, but then they put it all together with a BB Cream. Not sure what a BB Cream is. Is it a face moisturiser with foundation in it? Not sure.

Any who’s I will be giving it ago and see will report back to you.
