It would be easier to tell you what bits of me haven't been assisted in some way.
Hair on head - dyed
Teeth veneered
Body hair - mostly zapped with IPL
Botoxed three times a year for the past 6 yrs
Eyelashes and brows tinted
Facials every month or two when I have time
I'm thinking about a peel next time to get rid of some sun spots
Make up if I go out but just a bit of mascara and tinted moisturiser for the supermarket.
Hands manicured - do it myself same with pedicures
And I might have had the odd little nip n tuck here and there too
I would like to add that I don't tango orange myself or walk around with my belly showing, I just try to go for the groomed look.
But I do love Dolly's quote 'It costs a fortune to look this cheap' :rotfl::A

well...
every 4/6 week I wax - hollywood, legs, armpits, eyebrows.
I get my hair cut every 6 weeks. Jut a cut no colouring or anything.
I do wear make up however it just a very fresh face look.
Most of my beauty money goes on waxing, good foundation and brand named shampoo.

OOooh ... what a fun thread, might pick up some good ideas for some additional fakery :-)
Hair - dyed
Teeth - natural but sometimes use instant white tooth veneer
Eyebrows - waxed
Shave armpits
Perfume every day
Makeup every day before leaving house
Moisturise daily face, hands, feet
Apply false nails for weekend, otherwise nails on hands and feet self-manicured/pedicured and painted during the week
Self-tan using Holiday Skin moisturiser
I think the remainder is as nature intended :-)0 -
all those chemicals you are putting on your skin are being absorbed. Be advised some may cause cancers!0

Hair - trimmed,coloured & highlighted every 6-8 weeks
eyebrowns - plucked
teeth - natural but have some crowned
shave armpits
wax legs - every other month (use roll on wax at home)
Used to go once a month for fake tan but salon has closed down, so going to self tan at home
make up - usually Chanel bronzer and lip gloss in the summer, in winter a light foundation and lipstick
nails I buff them at home and moistureise hands
feet - home pedicure - buff nails
Body - usually Sanctuary hot sugar body scub all over every 2 weeks
Body oil or lotion every night
Thinks thats about ittotal airhead, total bimbo, very superficial:D0 -
Ok here's my list:
Fake tan (try not to be too orange though lol)

ooh that is one of my more recent discoveries
"Pearl Drops Instant White Brush On Tooth Veneer", you can get it from Boots. http://www.pearldrops.co.uk/
I read that Fern Britton uses it, and decided to give it a go - it really brightens up my teeth and makes them look whiter :j
Costs about £8 from Boots0 -
I'm natural all the way apart from straightening my hair and having highlights put in, that's about it really i was once told by a beautician that i am naturaly beautiful and i don't need makeup.
God has blessed me with natural beauty0 -
