Anyway, onwards and upwards and who knows, the 'job chickens' may come to roost tomorrow because I have applied for loads.

Re: What do you do to look your best :-)
Pay for a pedicure once a month and hair cut every 6 weeks. Other than that I do my own hair colour & streaks and wax my own eyebrows & legs once a fortnight. In summer I rarely wear makeup but in winter use tinted moisturiser for some colour, a bit of eye makeup and always lippie. I almost never blow dry my hair and definitely never use straighteners. I like my wavy hair. 
I'm pretty low maintenance. I can go from sound asleep to out the door in less than 20 minutes - showered, dressed and ready to go.

If ever we needed a bloody miracle it is now, seriously if I could turn the clock back I would have never ever said anything (you know what I mean) because now the only person in strife, is me - financially.

Re: What do you do to look your best :-)
I colour and cut my hair every 6 weeks without fail and have a weekly blow-dry depending on what I have on. Have monthly facials and every other month a peel. I use AHA products, moisturiser and F30 on my face, neck and cleavage every day. I wax all my bits monthly. I have fortnightly massages and have a pedicure and manicure every 3 weeks.
I have botox in my frown lines and brow as and when needed, which is usually every 4 months.
I go to the gym and or run everyday for at least an hour.
When going out I always wear make up i.e. tinted moisturiser, concealer, eyeliner, mascara, bronzer, blush and gloss on lips.
and I still look like s**t

I treated myself to a new belt- went out without one this morning as the old one broke - and splashed out $5 on a t-shirt!!!
Going to colour my hair if my painful shoulder will let me.

Re: What do you do to look your best :-)
I have one beauty tip you must NOT try.
The 2 day milk diet.
1.2 litres of trim milk plus 4 serves of fruit and veg.
I got half way through the first day before realising why babies puke so much
Nowt but warm milky coffee in a humid queensland summer, by lunchtime I was seriously spinning, all light headed, blurred vision, hands shaking..... Then the milk was about to come up.... Wouldnt mind but I was driving at the time
My first and last diet as long as I live.

Re: What do you do to look your best :-)
I made a rare effort today and put on some smart trousers, shoes and shirt, probably for the first time in a year.
Conclusion? The trousers have shrunk, but just around the waistband.
