Do you practice what you preach?

[Abbie101]

Just wondering how many actually practice what we preach? I'm really bad an I don't, I use baby wipes to remove make up even though I tell clients you should cleanse with facial cleanser etc. I don't apply oil to my enhancements or wear gloves when washing up etc. I don't exfoliate before a spray tan.
So just of out curiosity how many of you do? X

Yep I hardly ever do treatments and I always straighten my hair... Really need to take my own advice :/

I'm really bad with the cuticle oil and never wear gloves when washing up! I sometimes don't even wear basecoat if I have to quickly put polish on for a night out. Don't tell anyone!!!

Very rarely use solar oil however I am quite good with my skin care because I want to look after it, never wear gloves etc

I didn't but then had a trip to see a friend and wasn't wiping my nails after using suncream & hadn't used any oil for months. Probably years. My gel really suffered so when I went to Turkey I was really good wiping my nails and using my oil - the result was 9 perfect nails (1 lost an argument with a holdall wedged into the bottom of the pushchair halfway through the holiday grrr). I too use face wipes and use aldi moisturiser but I tell clients I use the facial range we use in salon.

Im very bad.

I dont use my SO, I pick my shellac off. I dont prep before a tan, I don't pep my own nails for shellac.

Im really bad but always nag my clients.

I always practice what I preach as regards beauty, mainly because I believe what I say, that and the fact that I have no desire to look like some wrinkly old harridan!

 

[tonicj]

Yes I do. If I don't follow my own advice then why would clients and I expect clients to take me seriously xx

Always practice what I preach. In order to effectively sell your products you have to use it to be a true believer

Although aldi moisturiser did get loads of hype a while back & you couldn't get it. Its apparently amazing lol

Afraid I'm a practice what you preach guy lol.

I never go without proper cleaning as I see it as a bedtime wind down ritual...bit like brushing your teeth.

And don't get me started on the products I use, layering, etc. I probably have enough to stock out a department store

So yep, personally I'm of the ilk you should practice what you preach as it'll pay dividends with your skin, and you and your clients can relate on a retail level too.

Me too! Retail is a large part of my business and you are your best advert. Good healthy natural skin for your age is important. x
