How would you fix this face?

[OhHeyItsAThrowaway]

Throwaway account as totally outing myself with a photo.

I'm almost 34, soon to be going back to work after mat leave and frankly I look haggard. I've never liked my appearance but it's at an all time low.

I'll be joining a new team, new people, & want to make a good first impression.

I've just bought new skincare (the new No7 stuff) & having my hair professionally cut & coloured next week (although am as yet undecided on a fringe or not...) but the rest of my face needs help.

If you had a month and could scrounge up a few hundred pounds to throw at it, how would you fix this?

Things I've considered (but never had);
Professional tooth whitening? (I've always had these odd white lines on my front teeth, will that make them worse?)
Lash extensions?
Lip filler? (Can this help disguise a wonky smile?)
Something else?

Just got my hair done, really pleased & feel much more "me". Decided against the fringe for now, as DS is soooo grabby with hair at the moment so it's useful to be able to tie it all back.

I've added the niacinamide (AM) & retinol (PM) to my skin care routine. I'm planning organise brows, LVL lashes & a facial soon.

I have a dental check up next month & will see if they have any special offers on their whitening treatments as I can't really afford full price (£500). Whitening toothpaste has made a very slight difference.

I also saw my GP & I'm having some blood tests to check for anaemia & vitamin D deficiency (both of which I've had in the past, & which may be contributing to feeling a bit run down & crap).

I got to read a book & drink a hot cup pf tea while having my hair done - bliss!

Looks brilliant, you haggard old fright!

I agree with everyone else that you look lovely and not at all haggard.

If you want an easy pick-me-up /confidence-boost, I recommend an LVL lash lift. I had one recently and was so delighted by the result! It's one of the most effective (and yet natural-looking) beauty treatments I've had. And it's relatively cheap too.

Well there you go!

You look great.

Love the hair.

You absolutely do not look haggard 😂 you are gorgeous and the new hair looks fab. This is just personal opinion but I liked your hair up/put of your face a bit better because then you can see your lovely face shape and cheekbones. maybe a half up, half down or something would look good? You should show it off!
