Jen sent me a little self-care gift from Salty Vibes and now I have some very important life decisions to make… 🤣

Do I soak in:

🛁 Sore As F*ck
🛁 Hangry The Actual F*ck
🛁 You F*cking Rock
🛁 F*ck My Life
🛁 Chill The F*ck Out
🛁 Zero F*cks
🛁 Leave Me The F*ck Alone

At 58, I’m pretty sure I’ve been all of them in the same day. 😏

Tell me… which one are you today?

✨ Quick makeup artist tip! ✨

One of the easiest ways to keep your makeup looking fresh and your skin happy is to spot clean your brushes between uses.

I keep a bottle of isopropyl alcohol and a clean towel handy. A quick spray, a gentle swirl on the towel, and you’re removing leftover product, oils, and bacteria that can build up on your brushes day after day.

Not only does it help prevent transferring old makeup colours onto your face, but it also keeps your brushes performing better and can reduce the risk of skin irritation and breakouts.

Think of it as a mini reset for your brushes between deep cleans. 🖌️✨

Clean brushes = better makeup application, healthier skin, and products that perform the way they’re meant to.

Do you spot clean your brushes between uses, or are you a “I’ll wash them next week” kind of person? 😏

And that pretty much sums up the entire Kath and Jen friendship.

One of us is slightly savage.
One of us has no self-preservation when answering questions.
Neither of us can be trusted to behave in public.

The best friendships aren’t all sunshine and rainbows. They’re daily FaceTimes, relentless roasting, laughing until you cry, and knowing that no matter how much you annoy each other, you’ll still be on the phone five minutes later.

Some people get a soulmate.
I got Kath.
A tiny bit mean… but mostly my favourite human. ❤️✨

The transformation is complete… 🚨

A few hours ago: PJs, zero motivation and questioning our life choices.

Now: dresses, high tea and looking like we have our lives together. 😂✨

Never let the outfit fool you though… the chaos remains exactly the same.

Off to create more memories, laugh too loudly and probably embarrass ourselves in public. 🫖💕🥂

Took me 50+ years to perfect this level of unbothered chaos and I am NOT taking constructive criticism at this time 😂

🔥 The resting face is FREE, the sarcasm is SEASONED, and the f***s given are at an all time LOW 🤣 👑🤷‍♀️

Your makeup will only ever look as good as the skin underneath it. 💁🏼‍♀️✨

You can buy the most expensive foundation in the world… but if your skin is dry, dehydrated, textured, or neglected, makeup will sit ON the skin instead of melting INTO it.

Good skincare doesn’t just help your skin look healthier —
💙 it helps foundation sit smoother
💙 helps makeup last longer
💙 gives you glow instead of cakiness
💙 and honestly… sometimes makes you need LESS makeup altogether

Especially for us Gen X ladies — hydration, barrier support, and consistency matter more than piling on product.

This is why I’m always banging on about skincare first and makeup second 😅

Healthy skin = better makeup days.

If you’re not sure where to start with skincare for your skin type, comment “SKIN” and I’ll help 💙

Gen X crisis of the day…
Help me choose!!
Black jeans or blue jeans? 👖
Jacket or no jacket? 🤔
