Hello
I was wondering if any of you could help me, as I’ve got no idea where to start!
For the past two years, I’ve worked in a job I hate, I’ve not worn makeup, had my hair in a ponytail, and worn coloured jeans / jeggings with a jumper and ankle boots. I’ve put deodorant on, but definitely no perfume... basically I’ve really let myself go.
I’ve just got a new job, it’s a great career opportunity for me, with loads of room to grow, and I’m really excited! I want to look professional, I’m fed up of looking like I don’t care. I’ve been told the dress code is smart casual.
Firstly, I want to buy a perfume. I’m on a really tight budget, so don’t want to spend much at all, and I like light, floral scents. Any suggestions?
Secondly, I need to buy some makeup. I don’t want to wear foundation, and I remember I previously had an amazing tinted moisturiser from Bobby Brown, but I think that’s probably out of my price range now! I’m also trying to buy more ethical, non animal testing products. I’m planning on just wearing tinted moisturiser, mascara and doing my eyebrows- any cheap but good product suggestions (I’m incredibly pale, so really need something with spf in)
Finally, clothes. I want to buy a few nice blouses, with long sleeves as I hate my arms, that are comfy and plain, in more neutral colours, that are easy to move round in, and long enough so no risk of coming untucked! I also need to find some nice smart casual trousers.
Any tips, help or suggestions?
Thank you!
