The other week I went shopping with my friend as she wanted a new foundation, now I didn't need anything but said I would go with her as an excuse to catch up. As I sat and watched the beauty consultant match her with the perfect foundation, the easily led marketers dream (me) got sucked into the buy two items and get six items and a gift bag for FREE promotion!
So one contour stick and beauty boosting foundation later I left the shopping centre feeling good about my purchases!
The beauty industry is worth approximately £27 billion! Now I contribute to that on a regular basis, as I like to look after my skin (especially now I have hit 40!) I get sucked into buying things which promote younger looking skin, I like a regular facial, going to the hairdressers, having my nails done.....in fact the list can go on and I would say I do the minimum compared to some!
So compare this to the fitness industry, worth approximately £5 billion......a fraction of the beauty industries worth!

- I wonder how many people buy a block of facials and don't use them compared to wasted gym/fitness memberships?
- I wonder how many people stay at home when it is cold and dark instead of going to their nail appointment?
- I wonder how many people don't think twice about spending over £40 for a 'miracle' face cream yet turn their nose up at paying £40.00 a month for a fitness membership?
Like I said I love a good pamper however, I also spend the majority of my time (and money) on staying fit & healthy. The best anti-ageing I have come across is plenty of exercise, fuelling the body correctly and drinking plenty......of water! I try to keep my face & body in sync when it comes to ageing.
There might be a time when you can't afford to buy those miracle creams, so the alternative (and better option) is to keep active and eat well!
