[outer] beauty

So, my friends, I’ve been feeling a little bit yuk. Not a lot yuk. Just a little bit yuk.

It sort of came on so gradually that I didn’t really notice [sort of sneak.attack style, if you know what I mean]. And it’s not like I’ve been feeling massively blegh. But still.

When I think about it, a Rather Long Pregnancy followed by six incredible but crazy.full.on months of looking after a ridiculously sweet Little One tends to leave a girl feeling just a little bit flat.

So yesterday, I left my Two Favourite People at home and I snuck out. To an overwhelmingly delicious, willy.wonka.esque beauty shop.

An hour [and a few products later] I was feeling entirely rejuvenated. And still today, there’s a spring in my step and a radiant glow [I’m sure of it!] to my skin.

Now lovely people, I am the first to celebrate sustained beauty from within. But sometimes, when the road has been a little long and you’re feeling just a tiny bit worn down, a spot of TLC in a shimmering beauty bar can do wonders.
