I use olay moisturiser, and I make some of my own skin care preparations using essential oils. A few spots of rose oil and rosemary oil in a water spray makes a good skin toner. My hair and scalp get very dry, so I use argan oil as a scalp rub with some chamomile oil as a scalp rub a couple of hours before I wash my hair. I have a regular hair appointment every 6-8 weeks as a good cut and colour makes the most of what I got. My fingernails are short (for banjo picking!) and I recently started using Hoofmaker cream by Mane n Tail and the difference it has made to my nails is amazing. I use it every day at bedtime. And I use a hemp based foot cream to treat hard skin once a week. I have a chiropody treatment about every 6-8 weeks n which is absolute heaven. I only wear make up for special occasions (parties and gigs!) I use fairly natural shades that do not look too fakey. I also use a light fragrance at such times, either ones given as gifts or blends I make from essential oils. I think that having a self care routine is good for body, soul and self-esteem!
