Ladies, we all have our beauty regime...nails, eyebrows, you know the one.

My nails were due just as lockdown took hold. Bloody hell them off was a hard work!

I'm only ever had them done twice, I'd don't think I will again.

What have you been doing to keep up appearances?

Or have you just thought sod it and gone all natural?

I had clear polish put on before lockdown so I'm just going to leave them to grow and I'll file as appropriate.

I've cut my own hair

I laser my legs stuff so they get shaved every couple of weeks just to tidy any stragglers.

I keep toying with shaving my head but I'm not sure I have the courage.

My daughter is a qualified hairdresser and I can do nails.

And plucking eyebrows to try and keep the shape.

Really...your head! I really don't think I could do that. That's brave. I see Queenie has done it.

I hear you on the nail extensions, first set in years and had to prise them prise them off myself. Never again.

My hairdresser kindly sold me the products I need to do my roots. My lashes have lasted 3 weeks so far and look pretty good.

I don't feel massively high maintenance, so not fairing too badly!

Your lashes are they extensions? Dyeing lashes never works for me

I was lucky, I'd bought some hair colour just before this, I'll pluck it my eyebrows and my hair will just grow longer until I can get it cut

Getting my nails off was hard work! It’s absolutely destroyed my already poor natural nails. I guess I will be giving them some tlc over the coming weeks!

I've actually found time to step up my skincare and my freckles are covering my face right now.

Hair wise I am so tempted to trim it. It's just hitting my boobs atm but it's an annoying length and I get hot quickly. I've bought hair dye that should arrive soon. Nails wise, I'm just using a hard as nails treatment thing.

I miss being smooth and freshly waxed though.

Yes me too, mine look like they have been bitten/picked at

I would prefer to keep my own nails after this if I can, so at least that will spur me on to look after them.

I've started tweezing my brows. I tweeze my chin hair because it fucks me off.

Skincare as usual, needing more moisture everywhere lately. Hair removal otherwise has gone down to when I want to (or when underarm bushes make deodorant less effective).

Breaking out more than I had been, stress, diet, being inside a lot.

Playing with makeup as usual.

Oh. And I'm deep conditioning my hair a lot so I don't ruin it before I can get to a hairdresser. Trying to grow it out properly.

If you've thought about lasering at home now is the time to do it.

You have to shave your legs and zap them, they'll be almost done by the time we're allowed out again.

I do everything at home except my hair. I can let that grow because I can pin my fringe back if I need to. I have bought a permanent tint to do the roots which will be interesting
