Cleanse tone and... tiara

Cleanse tone and... tiara
By Beaut.ie  | Feb 19, 2007

I have THE most ridiculous confession to make.

Most people wear a hairband or clip their hair back to take their makeup off. I can never find anything sensible and appropriate so I always end up with the first thing that comes to hand. For ages it was sunglasses. Seriously, they're great for keeping all your hair off your face.

Then recently... it has become a tiara. Not an expensive one or anything, just a cheapy one I bought to wear to a fancy dress party (I was a fairy I think). But it is quite nice, glittery rhinestone flowers. My husband did remark mildly a couple of times but last night he just couldn't hold his tongue any more.

We were having an early night, happily watching Gladiator in bed (we just put a flatscreen in the bedroom so we're having lots of early nights at the moment to watch films in bed). I had on my tiara and my pajamas, a big pair of bunny slippers on my feet. On my face was the Bliss Triple Oxygen Mask (more on that story later!) which was foaming up and fizzling nicely.

"My God" he said "What are you like?"

It was at that moment that I realised I could easily go down the path of major eccentricity and turn into one of those mad old women who ends up being eaten by her cats.
