HEALTH & BEAUTY
Make more than you need of any dish and freeze it
or fridge it for later in the week or the month. That way you are producing your own ready meals, which are not drowning in preservatives and thickeners, such as methyl cellulose, which is a core ingredient in those Lite, Light, Low Calorie numbers – yes readers this delightful substance is legal to ‘fill’ out foods just as it is legal in its use as wallpaper paste. It expands in your stomach and makes you feel full – disgusting on all levels and I am willing to bet even if you have some left over from doing up the guest bedroom you won’t be adding it to your food… Do keep up a regular round of facials and exfoliation.
buying supermarket brands of cleansers and toners is fine – it’s the using of it that will win out in the end. Take your make up off properly at night and save those ‘wipes’ for emergencies such as coming in late from a party or spend- ing just a few nights away from home. When you are cleansing, whether with a wash-off cleanser (foaming or oth- erwise) or cream, take the time to massage it well into the skin with small circular motions to up the penetra-

Remove the cleanser really well with toner or water and finish with the most extravagant moisturiser you want to indulge in. After the age of 30ish invest in dedicated morning and night eye creams and for goodness sake never neglect your neck. Your neck is the one area that will come back to bite you if you ignore it - so be warned! Funnily enough blood flow is what it’s all about really. a good circulation brings a good tone and colour to the skin, carries away waste in the lymphatic system which runs around the body in tandem with the blood and brings oxygen to all parts giving you more energy and focus. Exfoliating in the shower is doing this job as well as sloughing off cells waiting to fall off so giving you a smooth- er skin with a brighter hue. Exercise also addresses blood flow as well as increasing flexibility and heart strength. Stretching is almost as impor- tant as moving about so done together they should see you
reaching for the stars for years to come. We may not be in the public eye but we do need to be standing tall on good foundations in order to be the stars of our own show until the end of the second act. Of course if we get any applause along the way then we’ll take it with a grain of sand. •
