What are you doing to stay physically active and mentally well at the moment?

I do a boot camp class every day and a bit of yoga every now and then.

What helps you get to sleep if you are wired but tired?

I watch a movie that I've seen a 1000 times already.

What is your skincare regime during the lock-down (morning and evening)?

I wash my face with a warm towel, and then I use Irene Forte Skincare! I use the Lemon Toner followed by the Hibiscus Serum both morning and evening. I then follow with the Prickly Pear Face Cream in the morning, and the Hibiscus Night Cream in the evening.

Do you have one evening or more a week where you spend time masking/pampering? What do you do?

No, sono negata ;)

What is the best beauty/skin advice you've ever been given?

Wash your face daily with a warm wet towel; it's the best way to clean your face.
