So, I’ve always looked after my skin, it’s pretty good for my age (mid 60s) Wear minimal, natural makeup for work and going out. Been told I don’t look my age, but I’ve had a terrible month, off with stress, awful run up to Christmas with anxiety and tension, mostly resolved, but it’s really taken a toll on my face. I look grey, my eyes look like pissholes in the snow, deep wrinkles very obvious, look ill even if I wear makeup.
So wise ones, give me a quick fix so I look human again. I haven’t got shitloads of cash to throw at it, but can stretch to a few at home little luxuries. Oil cleanse, facial oil at night with caffeine serum around eyes. Serum in am followed by factor 50 moisturiser. Trinny bb cream, and a taupe eyeshadow, mascara and orgasm blush with a light lip colour, usually black honey (yes I am that cliche). Drink plenty of water, little alcohol.

Sorry you've had such a hard time.

I like this face mask from Holland and Barrett and it's currently on buy one, get one free. I can't say it makes me look ten years younger, but my face likes it and it's a pleasant way of making a bath feel a bit more of a treat.
