Will being mostly at home change what you do with your beauty and pampering routines?
i have worked from home for ages, and will still do my face for work, esp as I'm on camera most days - but hair is often put up into a ponytail while wet (dries curly if I do that !)
I ordered primer and foundation this morning and have a good stash to make my way through so kinda see this as a chance to try new things and play with samples etc too.
pampering will be important i think. Masks, treatment, lotions etc to make yourself feel good. I got a massage before I went into isolation ten days ago and will have to live off that relaxation for a while!

I imagine my routine will stay the same. I started some new Skincare that I'm not sure gels well with my skin so will be reviewing that in a week or two. Usual 2 masks a week. Really into pedi care atm with a foot spa, scrub, pumice, cream and massage.
Experimenting with my palettes and trying different looks and combinations. Probably something I'll continue over the next 4 weeks.

I'm really into wearing no makeup at the moment as my skin is amazing! Thanks to the revitalift hyaluronic acid trial, thanks BR!
I will probably do a few masks as I have heaps to try out. My nails could do with some TLC also. It's getting cold here so might be time to get my winter clothes out and sort through them.

I’m not really using any makeup and probably won’t use a lot if I’m just staying home mooching about in my sweats/pajamas.
But I am using more skincare and will be doing more masks to try and take my mind off things. We will be saving money not having take out so I might even shout myself a few things in the grocery shop to try when that time comes.
The next time I plan to wear makeup will be my sons birthday we will dress up and have an isolation party and then Easter. Just to have a play around with some of my eye palettes.. use them or loose them right!?

I'm no wearing makeup even though I've been doing video calls. I might consider wearing it once school goes 'back' and I'm doing more video lessons. Will probably just stick to lip glass though lol.
Im using this time as a chance to finally get through my skincare stash without being tempted to buy more. I'm actually really weary about buying anything online at the moment. As much as a little treat would be nice, I'm concerned about the conditions that the people in warehouses are working in right now. Their safety needs to come first.

I had made 2 orders before the madness started, and one (my soaps!!!) Arrived yesterday, after a week of "sorted incorrectly" limbo.
I have high hopes for my iron!!
I think if the warehouses are packing, they can be picked up, but i think it will just take longer as the item will be non essential. Maybe? Im not sure

I was previously going to beauty school and wearing makeup six days a week. So my skin is having a little break now, although I still want to do my makeup a few times a week to make sure my makeup skills are good for when I have to go back to wearing it six days a week.
Will probably do more masks in the evening since I have the time and let my nails grow out.

With regards to online shopping, couriers are only collecting parcels from pre-registered, approved essential services businesses. I have an online store (non-essentials) and my last parcel was able to be sent on 25th March.
All essential items stores had to register with their respective courier services before Level 4 lockdown came into place, to ensure that parcels would continue to be collected and delivered. If you registered and were not an essentials store, your application would be denied/collections terminated during the lockdown period.
If you do order anything online from a non-essentials store during lockdown, your sale is processed normally, payment is taken, and your goods will be packed and set aside, but shipping will only take place once the Level 4 lockdown is lifted. This applies to The Warehouse, Farmers, and all other non-essentials businesses, too.
I hope this clarifies things for those thinking about online shopping for non-essentials.

I got a courier parcel from a friend and a Mecca order yesterday, both sent pre-lockdown. I've spoken with a couple of ppl and the consensus seems to be that couriers are clearing a backlog of last minute orders and then it's the essential businesses and those that support them for the foreseeable future.
With Mecca I think orders are now being packed in Australia so unsure if they'd get to people, and Australia is 10x as covid-y as us so I wouldn't be keen.
My last minute order was foundation and primer; I'm on camera daily and it's important I look relaxed and pulled together to help put the clients at ease (I'm in online education and training teachers up for remote learning on the daily). Once this all runs out I'll go to a supermarket option like maybelline or covergirl if I can't get what I want.

I havent worn any makeup since Wednesday, so fresh faced and giving my skin some breathing space. I don't usually wear much makeup anyway but it's still nice to not have to worry about putting it on.
I've done one face mask so far and hoping to pamper myself some more as I have a few to use up.
Also planning on using up some of my products and hopefully (if I get chance in between work and the kids), catch up on some reviews.

I looked in a magnifying mirror for the first time in over three weeks today lol. Thought I'd better get my eyebrows under control since I can't get them done at the moment. If I leave them too long I'll know I'll end up overdoing it, 90s style.
My skincare regime is the same as always. I haven't worn makeup for nearly a month but I'm thinking I'll put a little bit on for WFH tomorrow. Just to feel more 'in the zone'.

I'm crazy about 90s music and afro beats right now . I've been loving my weekly mask . I do pedicures on my children and partner on a weekly basis . Making sure their up to date.
I cut my partners hair as well . Lucky for me it's number two all over .
One thing I miss is a bath . Hopefully when I buy my first home this year that will be in my home .

I've done a few aztec clay masks lately. I love that stuff! Have so many sheet masks in my stash so a bath and mask tonight sounds amazing!
Going to give my ends a trim today, my partner said he would do it so I might let him lol. Took all my toe nail polish off to give my nails a break. They look a bit raggedy so I will give myself a pedi too.

Oh Maree I agree it's getting harder to work . My shifts are longer with new staff reduction rules set by the government. I've asked for tommorow off to recoup and reset .After having numerous standoffs with customers refusing to use the one shopper per family rule . Trying my best not to give up . Feeling stressed out.
4 weeks into isolation and I haven't really changed my makeup routine as I tend to only wear makeup in the weekends but I have really concentrated on skin care. I've done a tonne of research into what can be paired with what and what is best on dry mature skin. I've learnt so much and I'm really changing up my game. It's also how I came across this site which I'm really enjoying
