Beauty Tips For Body Care
I apologise in advance as this is probably going to be pretty long! However, I'm really happy about this and as it happened as a result of the tips and knowledge I've learnt from this sub, I thought I'd share here!So my mum and I have never really gotten on very well as we are both incredibly stubborn and have personalities that clash on an almost biblical scale! It's for this reason that I moved in with my SO after having to move back in with my parents last year due to medical issues. I went back for a few days over Christmas so I was expecting to just have to wait things out and try to stay civil until Boxing Day (today) when I would be coming back home to spend the day with my SOs family!However this Christmas has been a bit of a turning point in our ever turbulent relationship! I'd brought my "essential" skincare products over, as well as a few extras that I wasn't using or didn't get on with that I was going to leave for my mum if she liked them.Although we have different concerns with our skin, we have the same skin type and texture. I was just getting ready for bed so I was doing my nightly routine when my mum came into the spare room to "check I was all set" to leave tomorrow and to ask if I needed my brothers help carrying anything down as I have spinal problems! I'll hand it to her, she seemed to be trying as hard as I was to avoid any confrontation etc this year which was really nice!So she said she'd noticed the improvement in my skin and she asked if I would like to watch a movie and teach her what I use etc So for the first time since she taught me to paint my nails and put mascara on at the age of 12 (I'm 22 now) we sat down and had a "girly evening"! I was a little apprehensive at first but we sat down and went through her collection and I explained what they did, when and why she should use them and she tried out the acid peel I attribute the majority of my skins improvements to! We put face masks on, I painted her nails + toenails over a glass of wine and the new Peter rabbit movie! This morning she was so pleased with the results that we went shopping for some upgrades to her collection before I left to come home!So I suppose I'd like to thank you all for teaching me about skincare and for in part facilitating having a wonderful evening with my mother!
