Feel like I’ve let myself go...

[Cwoffeelover1]

I really feel like I’ve let myself go recently I used to wear fake tan and makeup all the time now I’m always pale with no makeup and a bun on my head... I would like to get abit of a routine back so I’m more consistent with my appearance and look more presentable... has anyone got any tips and how they look good? Xx

There's another thread on this at the moment!

Is it really possible to improve how we look?

But - pale with no makeup sounds perfectly normal/acceptable/human. Why do you feel you only look presentable when disguised as someone else?

I have nothing against make-up! But it's a shame to feel that wearing your own face is 'letting yourself go'.

Hey OP, it’s easy to feel like that isn’t it. For me I like to consciously add one thing to my outfit each day that I’ve picked to stand out. For example:
A very bright or interesting jumper
Big earings
Statement shoes
Bright lip (actually looks better with minimal makeup anyway)

I've stopped wearing fake tan too, not because I've let myself go but just because it looks a bit naff at the moment.
