1/ I have moisturised my whole life- I thought everyone did. My mum always used to slather us kids in moisturiser after baths! Good habits.
2/ I always use factor 50 in the summer. I'm trying to find a good SPF cream to use during winter. I will not get wrinkles.
3/ I used to suffer from adult acne- it was so horrible and really knocked my confidence. Luckily a trip to the doctor, a few months and some antibiotics sorted it out. I still get a bit paranoid though.
4/ I like the colour of my skin- although it changes quite dramatically. I tan soooo much during summer but in winter I'm relatively pale. That's why I don't wear foundation. I never know what colour my face will be!
5/ I'm allergic to the active ingredient in pretty much all spot creams so when I do get a spot I have to just grin and bare it! Tea tree oil can help though.
6/ I hate my teeth- my wisdom teeth have made them all wonky in the past couple of years... I'm livid! They used to be pretty nice. I also hate my nose- but like piercing it!
7/ My favourite part of me- or one of them- is my hair. It's quite shiny and very long and soft. It can go a bit mental sometimes but that can be fun. It's naturally wavy but easy to straighten or wear curly.
8/ E45 is my favourite moisturiser- it's a bit greasy but you know it does the job. It's also gentle on my sensitive skin.
9/ My skin is so irritable. I've had countless allergic reactions- some so bad I've not been able to open my eyes. I seek out natural products.
10/ My number one hair tip is to not wash it that often and to avoid blowdrying and straightening. My hair is in a scruffy topknot 99% of the time.
11/ Invest in good bobbles too- not ones with metal clips they tear your hair!
12/ I have two beauty spots (or freckles depending on your point of view) on my face. One above my lip and one above my eye.
13/ My desert island beauty product? An eyebrow pencil. I have no eyebrows. Not due to over plucking- I was literally born with no eyebrows. Nightmare.
14/ My eyebrow pencil of choice- Rimmel. Cheap as chips and the best I've tried. And I've tried a lot.
15/ I love Bobbi Brown gel liner and have been using it for about 6 or 7 years. It really is the best eyeliner on the market.
16/ I always try to take off my makeup before bed- sometimes I fail- I don't wear THAT much day-to-day so if i do the results aren't that bad.
17/ I wear WAY less makeup now than I did a couple of years ago. Coming to London from the North was a culture shock. Londoners wear way less makeup. They're about good skin and looking effortless. It was an adjustment...
18/ ...especially letting go of my beloved false lashes. There was a point in my life when wore them almost every day and I certainly I wouldn't go partying without them on! Heaven forbid. Now I can even go OUT out with minimal make up and no lashes.
19/ The other day I went OUT out with my hair in a scruffy topknot. That was a first and I felt fine.
20/ My mum and dad are 52 and 50 respectively and neither have any wrinkles at all so hopefully genetics will prevail and I'll have good skin as I age!
21/ Although I love my hair- it is so fine! So I'm quite conscious about it snapping. I swear every time someone hugs me they rip out strands of my hair. Oh, and I don't do anything chemically to it!
22/ My favourite makeup brand is MAC because most of their stuff is unperfumed and their lipsticks and eyeshadows are so highly pigmented.
23/ My all time fave lipstick is MAC Ruby Woo- which is a perfect red shade. It looks great on olive and asian skin as it's the right balance of orange and blue.
24/ I use argan oil on my face body and hair as it has antibacterial qualities and leaves everything soft. No wonder Moroccan women look so beautiful!
25/ My number one beauty tip? You are what you eat. Drink lots of water, eat loads of fruit and veg and nuts and fish... all that good stuff. I'm a sweetie addict and whenever I binge on junk my skin regrets it.
So that's it- I hope my 25 beauty facts were interesting! Sheree XX
