Life for me would not be living without having the kind of glow that one has when one spends a ridiculous amount of money on a guilty pleasure, especially in these bad financial times. By that I do not mean so much the shoes, handbags and clothes (although I do enjoy something new and shiny like any girl) I am instead referring to my beloved potions and lotions that promise youth and vitality.
As a girl in my 20’s I have been cleansing and moisturising since my youth, and with every passing year my tastes have got more and more expensive and I am embarrassed to say that in 10 years I went from Nivea to Crème de la mer, which at £160.00 a buy for 400ml is indeed a treat that has led me down the student diet- you know the usual beans and toast- path more than once.
I know, I know with the credit crunch I should really be cutting back and maybe even saving a little bit of money, but I still find myself justifying my spending to myself and to those who will listen that it is an “I need” and not an “I want”.
