I’ve Never Felt So Old! Gentle Vlog UK Reseller December 2024

[@sandrawilliams7318]

hi kirsten i know how you feel! i have health problems and feel so tired, but i do find on a days i wear the lightest of makeup, my mood is greatly improved, and if i do go out im ready to go, and feel better about myself, its amazing what concealer can do under the eyes, xxx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I think its from making the effort for the shop daily to doing nothing makes me feel drab

[@Karen-dy2rj]

I wear makeup all the time, it makes me feel good and gives me confidence, i dont see many girls when i’m out wearing it, how things are now i guess 💁‍♀️

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I don’t feel the need for it in summer but I feel drab in the winter

[@gaylehunter6187]

Hi Kirsten, hope you get your headaches sorted, they’re not nice! Make up wise, do what you’re happy with, personally I wear it every day even if I’m just in the house, I always have done, I don’t feel ready for the day if I haven’t got some make up on. Xx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I always wore a little make up when I was in the shop - maybe that’s what I should get back to

[@sandraparker7287]

Hi Kristen. Enjoyed your vlog. Im the same never wear makeup in the house, only of i go out. Hope you get your migraines sorted doon. ❤ for cute Jenny. Thake care 😊

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thanks Sandra

[@LittleCardCoUK]

Hi Kirsten. I certainly don't feel I can't go out without make up but I definitely feel better if I put on a little make up on days I'm not looking or feeling my best 😊 It somehow gives a psychological boost ❤

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I think I’ve just got lazy since not having the shop

[@sharonlloyd6617]

Oh kirsten I feel your pain I had headaches for a whole year and never found out what caused them I had to have a mri but they never found anything good luck I am sure you will feel better soon x

[@kirstenscuriosities]

That’s rough! Hoping I can get some help

[@RuthLong-jh1uc]

Hi there, I always wear mascara, just makes me feel better Don’t be so hard on yourself and hope you get these headaches sorted soon 😊

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Yeah maybe a bit of makeup will improve things for me

[@sharonheppell8378]

Always a pleasure to watch Kirsten!!!! 👍👍👍👍for you and Jenny 🐶 she's such a Cuttie ❤🙏🪷🧘‍♀️

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thank you so much!

[@janethoyle3319]

Hi Kirsten, the email definitely sounds dodgy. I don’t wear make up much these days but I always do my eyebrows, they frame your face and I feel so much better when they are done, I always have a spray of perfume it lifts my mood. Take care of yourself, you sound tired and at a low ebb. Trying growing your fringe out, see how you feel with it longer, you can always cut it back in. Jenny is gorgeous, as always xxx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I think I just need to make a bit of effort

[@michellegiblin6812]

Hi Kirsten don't be hard on yourself beautiful jewelry

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Oh thank you!

[@danicacharles4221]

You are a pretty lady. Be kind to yourself, Kirsten. Once you get your health back on track...im sure that will help. ❤ ❤ For Jenny Have a lovely weekend 😊❤

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thank you - I would love to be headache free

[@juliahawthorn3122]

Your natural hair colour is lovely

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thanks - I’m just getting used to it

[@laura2051]

👍❤️ Jenny , I wear make up and do my hair every day and getting ready in the morning is one of my favourite things to do and I do feel so much better for it , have you ever tried boots cooling migraine head wrap Kirsten ( I haven’t but I have seen them advertised) hope you feel better soon 🥰 x

[@kirstenscuriosities]

It’s weird - in the summer I just don’t feel the need for makeup but in winter everything is so grey inc me 😆

[@patgoodchild8045]

I agree about today’s language…..impossible to understand, delete the message! I wear makeup every day even when I don’t go out. It definitely makes me feel better and hopefully look better!! Give it a try, it may help your general well-being. If you want to keep your fringe you may need to wet it every day and blow dry it on a downward brush to get rid of the parting. X

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I think I’ve just got lazy now that I’m not getting ready for the shop

[@PatSimmons-g4r]

Absolutely love the jewellery Kirsten. Wish the postage to Australia wasn't so high.☹ Love the 'comebacks.' I enjoy your vlogs so much.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Those comebacks are great to have in our armoury

[@emilygilbert9892]

Try HRT for your headaches, they can be caused by oestrogen fluctuations, you have had a massive life change with moving and menopause is also a huge life change, I think you need to take more time to yourself, I love your painting, maybe it will inspire me to do more too, also how about a weekend away meeting up with your old pals eg Caroline in Bristol or London? I have found need friends even more in menopause definitely, hope you are okayx

[@emilygilbert9892]

I think you might be missing the social side of the shop as well. Sometimes the things we think will make us happy eg a garden are not enoughx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I’m seeing a Dr after Christmas so I’ll see what he says re HRT I miss the shop in some ways but I definitely don’t miss being freezing cold all day

[@emilygilbert9892]

@@kirstenscuriosities fab. I hope it works. I found male docs not good re hrt they tend to dissuade but I found big improvements on it, evrorel sequi i am onx

[@emilygilbert9892]

You could volunteer in one of the places you have a booth it might help sells stuff too, just for a temp period? Eg 4 hours a week for a month,

[@WendyL63]

Hi Kirsten, what a thought-provoking vlog. Thank you ❤ I would no more walk out of my house without makeup, than i would naked. It's just a thing i always do.😊 👍for Jenny ❤❤

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I barely leave the house now but think I should make some effort occasionally ☺️

[@DawnHarley-g7u]

Hi kirsten I think your hair is trying to tell you something it brightens your lovely face which doesn't need makeup, just go for a run around with jenny in your garden then have a look in the mirror, hands off the fringe and forget the makeup .hope to meet at a Carboot one day. Take care Dawn

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Oh are you local?

[@jackieedwards2023]

Hi Kristen sorry u r not feeling too good as for your hair when I try and grow my hair out it really makes me fell down and not with it then I just give up as I can not fell that way every day I think it might make u fell better to put a bit of makeup 💄 on just till u get your hair sorted as u have got a lot going on and I know if I am feeling like that I get up and do the best I can with myself hope u fell better soon take care 😊💄

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I’m going to persevere with my hair because I really don’t want to spend the money of the hours at the hairdressers

[@Paintspotsandpaper]

Hi Kirsten, love vintage silver, couldn’t resist, Christmas present for myself 🙄🙄😊😊😊❤❤❤🎄 Thankyou so much, take care ❤❤🎄🎄🎄

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@Paintspotsandpaper]

@@kirstenscuriosities 👍👍😁🎄🎄🎄❤❤

[@caththyssen2730]

Good luck with your headache plans. Nothing more frustrating! Hope you find something that works for you. I’m a minimal make up person. Powder, blush, nude lipstick and mascara. I would never think to put it on just to be at home. I do wear it to work.i think if you like make up and it makes you feel good, then go for it! Sorry to hear Darren’s mum is struggling with her health. Must be a worry for you both. Love lasagna. A favourite of ours but one we don’t have a lot of due to the time it takes to make.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I always wore a bit of makeup for the shop but I’ve got nowhere to go now ( which I enjoy)

[@GilliBryan]

I think ´I like a bit of fiddling about with paints’ is the definition of arty 😂❤ also get rid of the mirror😂

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Banish all the mirrors 😂

[@nettie8376]

👍👍great to see you

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thank you ☺️

[@susangower558]

I hope your headaches subside soon. Re make up free days-Dyed eyebrows and facial tanning drops help me look less grim.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Tanning drops - hadn’t thought of that

[@BluePoppy333]

I get migraines too but just for a week or so each month usually so it is hormonal I think and I suspect I’m perimenopausal but haven’t seen a doctor about it. The migraines can really wipe me out though and I feel nauseous with them too. So I feel your pain and hope you get them sorted! By the way, camomile tea can trigger a migraine for me but I know we are all different so might not affect you in the same way.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I haven’t had a proper migraine for quite a while but just daily headaches- it’s annoying

[@pollydolly9723]

Perfection is the game that started my childhood anxiety! 😱 about the makeup? Try for a week, and go from there. 😊 Also, I really like those comebacks! I shall report back!

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I’m going to keep rehearsing them just in case

[@davejenkins6896]

​@@kirstenscuriositiesMy late father was always ready with a mean nasty put down & I'd come up with a suitable reply way after the event but if ppl want to be so horrible why not just let them get on with it and be glad you are not as inadequate as they must be in their sad little lives 😂 just saying 😮

[@alimack890]

im almost 40 and never had a relationship or anything , your probably lucky x

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I think I am

[@margewyatt1743]

Just saying, but to save you any more problems, tablets should always be taken with water, they can irritate your oesophagus.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Yes - you are absolutely correct

[@jacquelinegreen9157]

I am no good at comebacks either!! Always think of something a day later!! But those are good retorts, I will remember them in case the need arises. I do wear a little bit of make up each day, not a lot, but it just gives a bit of routine to my day. You don't need to at all but it might just make you feel a bit brighter. What a load of gobbledygook in that email. Who or what writes that stuff? Different planet springs to mind. Take care. xx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I might just do my eyebrows- mine comically stop half way

[@kat9669]

Hi Kirsten I think you look absolutely beautiful make up or no make up ! So big yourself up girl. U have beautiful skin. The message u receive I would ignore if I were u. Looks like a scam. I don’t understand it either. Lol. Lovely necklaces. Ty for sharing. X.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Thank you I got a follow up email and it’s just as nonsensical

[@TheCatlady63]

🎄🎄🎄😺😺😺

[@kirstenscuriosities]

🐶🎄🎉

[@patriciahawkins9652]

I would treat that email as a scam. If they waffle like that and don’t tell you anything I would delete and forget. Any reputable company would at least give you some idea what it’s about

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I’ve blocked them now 😀

[@jillybeelivingherlifeherwa3704]

Please delete that email, sounds like a scam and gave me a headache 😂 I am for comfortable clothes, we are going to Newcastle today, I have a lovely A line dress on and patent leather ankle boots, I want to walk and be warm Those words are brilliant, I use them a lot, shuts people down and makes them realise it’s not ok to be mean

[@davejenkins6896]

Sorry for butting in 😢 I'd be tempted to send an equally incoherent reply to the scammers but you probably have better things to do 😢 .. having read most of the other replies about wearing makeup it seems that it's down to personal feelings and if it makes you feel better why not❤ anyway I hope you all my fellow subscribers have a peaceful Christmas ❤

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I need to work on remembering those sentences!

[@dianereed9364]

That email is a very poorly worded sales pitch - offering to help on the back end for resellers - you’re right, so vague it leaves you scratching your head. At any rate, I’m sure they’d like a bit of $$$$ for their “help.” I continue to do a bit of highlights on my hair; at one point, I stopped, but ultimately, didn’t like my hair so dark. For the most part, I only wear make up when I go out or am expecting company.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I prefer my hair blonde but I don’t want to spend the money or the time on it now

[@davejenkins6896]

​@@kirstenscuriositiesSuits you blonde IMHO

[@99Narnia]

Sounds like "Chinglish" and a scam, rather than modern speak. Maybe a "glow up" will make you feel better. Father Christmas could treat you to some of your Avon products. Your viewers don't mind how you look, we love you for being real. Thanks for the comebacks. I feel I need them in my workplace, nevermind once a year. 👍 for Jenny. xx

[@kirstenscuriosities]

Keep rehearsing the comebacks ☺️

[@skincarefan7742]

For me the message sounds like a scam so I would delete straight away, I didn’t understand it either when you read it out 🤷‍♀️

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I got a follow up that’s equally confusing 🤣

[@marisayoung8670]

It’s a scam! Delete and move on. I don’t wear make up at home and my going out is some tinted BB sunscreen and lip gloss. It’s too hot and humid here to wear heavy make up. Please try and focus on happiness and your health and throw that mirror in the bin. Best wishes. 😊

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I’m not overly obsessed with my looks - it’s just the change that’s happened with my change of lifestyle

[@heatherleutscherwarren9459]

The email sounds like word salad and a scam.

[@kirstenscuriosities]

I got a follow up email that’s equally as coherent
