Hi all!

I've got a couple of events coming up at the end of this week/early next week and I want to look my absolute best.

Here are some of the things I'm already doing/will be continuing, but any more tips at all would be great, thanks!

  • I already have a pretty clean diet but am upping it for this week.
  • Drinking lots of water (already back and forth to the loo every 5 mins!)
  • Hair mask
  • Face mask
  • I've chosen my outfits already
  • I already exercise every day and aim to hit all my steps every day

Basically, I just want to look and feel my absolute best, so any and all tips are welcome :)

Thanks in advance!

How can coloured nail varnish look slutty?? Sorry missing point of the thread.

I love how the Queen is used as a style icon here.

I didn't think anyone had described painted nails as being slutty since the 1950s.

I dunno Quintella, I might be tempted to wear a nice vampire red precisely in order to look vampy/slutty.

Exfoliation; I would really really recommend the 'Korean Italy towels' which as small green viscose squares for body (not face Shock).
The results are incredible especially on upper arms. Prepare to be disgusted yet fascinated but how much skin peels off - just make sure to have a very long soak in the bath before using them.

Lumene, I'm afraid you'll need to do more than paint your nails red to be considered a slut.

You'll also need to be seen tangled in a passionate embrace in a public drinking house in the middle of the day. Brazenly hang your gauzy underwear out to dry on the clothes line for all the neighbours to spy. Oh, and chew gum. All sluts chew gum.

If you do do fake tan, make sure it's one you've used before and it's not too dark for your natural skin tone. A relative used one last week and I'm surprised she hasn't been arrested for racism yet.

Seconding Korean Italy towels before you fake tan - they make your skin so soft! Which means less chance of patchy tan Grin
