Feel good Friday vibes only after another @fabclinic_ facial and a look back at my Skin Journey so far ✨
.
BEFORE 👉🏻 Swipe right was me in Nov 2018 with an angry, inflamed and sore face. Looking a lil lifeless, tired, less confident and covering up with lots of makeup .
AFTER 👉🏻 Swipe right again, is me 5mins after my facial today. Today’s progress is huge after fortnightly treatments with @fabclinic_ and a personalised @officialmedik8 skin regime to heal and balance my skin on the outside. I’ve probably spent hundreds, maybe thousands over the years on skincare and this is the best regime and results I’ve ever had
.
My skin also represented that my body and health was inflamed and unbalanced on the inside too which is why I called upon @jsnutritionandwellbeing for some healthy healing
.
Wow and thank you is all I can say to both for my progress and results today 🙏🏻 It’s a continuous journey of self care, self love and consistency. I’ll share a blog post soon so you can learn all the gory deets 😂🙈
.

Covering up is a negative cycle for self confidence and is something I’ve seen a lot of for a long time. Let’s talk about it lovelies
.
It all starts with buying a clothes size too big because of one or many of the below: .
➡️Avoiding any ‘clinging’ of the tummy area.
➡️Dressing with one body part in mind and missing the whole picture.
➡️Having a distorted body image.
➡️Focusing only on covering the negatives and not highlighting the positives.
➡️Making your body fit to an item and not the item to your body.
➡️Lack of knowledge in correct shapes and styles for body shape.
➡️Too much emphasis in weight not shape.
➡️Trying to bulk up body shape with layers to look ‘less skinny’.
➡️Only reaching for your size or one up, fearful of trying the next size down.
Do any of the above resonate with you? This only results in seeing a bigger version of yourself in the mirror everyday, reaffirming the distorted image you have of your body. Then usually followed by the need to ‘lose weight’ to look and feel better. And the cycle continues
.
When the truth is, weight or size means nothing without Shape and have no bearing on Style Code.
I used lovely Mandy as an example today as there is perception that only ‘bigger’ ladies cover up, when the truth is everyone I meet is covering up. Even the size 8 ladies! Dressing Mandy’s Body Code with a few items in the dressing room left her gob smacked (in a good way obvz). We switched the focus to only her shape and highlighting the positives
.
Thursday thoughts for you tonight lovelies. I hope this plants a seed of awareness next time you look in the mirror, get dressed or go shopping next 💚#thursdaythoughts #bodyconfidence #stylecode #bodycode #shapematters #stylecoach #stylemakeover
