One of the best episodes ever. I think Clare echoes so many of us when she says she worries that she has used up all her bravery.

[@tayd.7373]

Interesting “used up all my bravery”. How do we determine that.

[@Deborahblacoe]

@@tayd.7373 we don’t “determine” it, we feel it. Not quantifiable.

[@tayd.7373]

@@Deborahblacoe there was a time in her life growing older etc that did determine it mentally

[@JenniferShaw27]

thank you for being so lovely trinny! you treat all your ladies with such warmth and care. this made me so emotional! ❤

[@helentowse4990]

OMG I felt so emotional watching this episode especially when she said that she thought that she had used up all her bravery ❤ I'm 63 (almost 64) and I have been through a LOT , I now feel like an empty vessel😢 Clare looked amazing at the end and she is absolutely beautiful and glowing with new found confidence and self appreciation ❤ I now need to fix myself before it's too late for me❤

[@gjalameda6686]

I cried through this episode. Claire initially had an aura of giving up. Then came Trinny, who has this incredible gift of leading people from where they are to an incredible place full of hope and excitement. Claire radiated beauty and poise. Stay on this path Claire, I would love to see you in a year. Of course you will be even more beautiful.😊

[@sumibak]

One of Trinny's best makeovers ever. You gave her back her youth, some subtle glamour and brought out her intrinsic personality.

[@jillmortlock8439]

This one really resonated with me. I am 62, petite, larger up top and I had already bought this pink suit a few months ago but never worn it because the voices in my head told me I was an idiot to have bought it. That I was too old, too fat, who was I kidding, people would be sniggering if I wore it. So I know exactly what she means about self doubt, I stopped wearing make up, jewellery, stayed in 'safe' clothes. This year it changed. I thought eff it. I love colour so I bought colour. I love shoes so I bought shoes, I mean I really bought shoes! I have done my nails for the first time in 10 years. Don't get me wrong, I still stand in front of the mirror and go, who is this old woman, who dies she think ahes kidding? But at least I look at myself now. The makeup is a slower journey because I have zero clues what I am doing, but I'm not giving up. So no, you haven't used up all your bravery,and neither have I. It's still there for you. Thank you.

[@sharonperry8978]

There are lots of makeup tutorials on YT to help you with the makeup. Makeup Geek had some good beginner tutorials you might like to check out.

[@melaniehamilton8980]

I do hope you've worn that suit now!

[@americafirst9144]

Since you like color, but you feel intimated by it, why not buy more earthy versions of color? Coral instead of pink Pumpkin instead of orange Teal instead of electric blue

[@jayare6804]

Well done on working towards a kinder, more authentic relationship with yourself. It's a process, with better days than others. Keep showing up for yourself!

[@JBUHJBUH]

​@@americafirst9144 Yes or more pastels if you're of a cooler undertone instead (like icy pink & baby blue)

[@joybarnes5504]

Gosh that brought a tear to my eye! She looks fabulous, her hair is so much brighter and now cut into a fun shape. So lovely.

[@pippacotton2339]

Claire got her bravery back and looked modern and glamorous. Well done all at Trinny London

[@TrinnyLondon]

💞

[@biddyschatz8499]

I keep repeating myself, but there is no other way❤️ I love it!

[@carmelharmston5412]

This was such a great episode, not only does Clare look FANTASTIC (I LOVE the one week later photos showing her rocking the flowery suit) but it really felt Trinny was back taking her time with listening to her client and reflecting and explaining things to us the audience - not so rushed. LOVED it - well done all!

[@michaelatomasch1792]

Yeah, it was so much more sensitive than a lot of other episodes! GREAT!

[@jacqueline8559]

I hated the Floral Suit when Claire was trying it on, However, when she was in the photographs wearing the Jacket with jeans, and the suit together, she was stunning! And it's hard to believe that gorgeously cut Pink suit was from Zara. She looked beautiful. Trouble with Zara is that I cannot tell which Clothes are wearable for normal women, on line, because they use emaciated, depressed looking models in all kids of weird posture/ positions. That needs to stop!!

[@bronwynjohnson999]

Where can I see these 1 week later photos?

[@ofelia7077]

It broke my heart that such a vibrant person felt so negative about herself. I hope she embraces how wonderful she is and fully dives into life again. She looked fabulous, glamorous & super confident. Well done everybody 🎉

[@kraft3898]

That was truly amazing! She looked like such a bosslady!! Like Jane Fonda maybe? I am so impressed 😍😍😍 I mean she looked like a Hollywood superstar 🤩🤩🤩

[@caterinawilliams998]

Thought the same too, lots of Jane Fonda vibes❤ !!

[@teresacarle294]

💖 Sensational Super Star 💖 ✊️Team Trinny transformed Claire into 100% 📸 Red Carpet A-List Glamour Gal. She could definitely give Jane Fonda a serious run for her money in that ⚡️sizzlin' hot pink⚡️trouser suit. The silhouette & drape was stunning as was the 💫 sparkly body-con undergarment. ✂️ That longer layered hairstyle was absolute ✨️perfection✨️on her too. It's powerful, feminine, & sexy. 🦸‍♀️Patterns & prints can be my personal 🪨kryptonite 🤣. 🛑 Sadly, the floral fabric (esp. in that 80s color palette🎨) instantly sets off my own frump factor🚨. It struck me a bit as 🏣 Corporate meets Church ⛪️ Chic. If Claire likes it〰️ & it makes her feel like a 💪powerhouse〰️that's all that matters in the end. 🥂Cheers to her new spark of joy & confidence. May she continue to go forth & conquer all in her path w/her charisma! 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@muoian]

Clare is so honest and it’s so refreshing to hear these thoughts outloud. I can totally relate with her

[@junemuskett201]

Claire looks fab suit great . As a tiny women myself I honestly have to say trousers do suit short women far better than skirts. To long skirts are not flattering. I honestly know I look and feel taller and more glam wearing trousers. X

[@NinaT940]

“Have I used up all my bravery?” 😢 resonated with me so much. No you haven’t lovely lady you just have to bring it to life again, it’s there!❤❤❤

[@beckaelenaceccon327]

All the happy tears over here!!! Trinny you are one amazing and kind women! So great how you gave her the support she needed❤

[@TrinnyLondon]

💞

[@bc5127]

I used to know what suited me up until recently. I feel a bit lost now about what to wear. How lovely to see the happiness you brought to this lady life🙏

[@MsSupergoldfish]

Amazing transformation, not easy one for both Trinny and Claire, but the result is absolutely stunning. I like that Trinny didn’t push Claire too far, listened carefully and in the pink costume the belt was tightened as Claire feels better when it is fasten. Kudos to Trinny’s team!!!

[@SallySturman]

Wow, Clare not only looks stunning, but it's like she came back to life! Well done Trinny & the team 💛

[@shellakabooki3349]

This is one of the best ever episodes! I am so thrilled to see Clare blossom into the person she really is. Well done for honouring and respecting her. 🌸🌸🌸

[@elgeebee5250]

The self doubt and moments of paranoia from her thoughts, are on her face. A warmer smile is so nice.

[@KimomoDragon]

My only complaint is that these aren't longer. I could watch multi hour episodes of Trinny. ❤

[@donnasanford3970]

Wow just wow !

[@MojotheMothra]

When Trinny said lots of bravery of Claire in terms of expat life and then sending her children back to UK for uni ... so relatable and so inspiring. Much love for this epi xxx

[@ArAmInCa]

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! Had goosebumps when Clare came out in that gorgeous pink suit. I like how Trinny sees the inner persona and works with that in such a respectful and gentle manner.

[@lynnemoncrieff66]

Claire looks absolutely fantastic. I love the transformative effect of a makeover well done like this; bright but not gaudy, trendy but not too try hard and shapes that really suit her figure. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@gillianking2566]

Claire is so beautiful; and in hot pink she is radiant. Kudos to Trinny and the team for giving Claire the opportunity to shine ❤

[@harasmcgov]

Oh wow she looked amazing! Well done trinny! Xx

[@jmk1962]

That was one of your best ever transformations Trinny. I actually filled up when I saw how gorgeous Claire looked after her transformation. She could be a model and her figure is to die for. That pink suit was stunning on her and her hair was fabulous. The side fringe/bang was genius as it hid her worried brow. She has the most gorgeous eyes and just needs to learn to smile more to take away that 'worried look' that she had for most of the video. When she smiles she totally transforms. It was honestly like watching a caterpillar transform into a beautiful butterfly. I hope Claire watches this and reads the comments to see what we viewers see which is a beautiful confident gorgeous lady. She just needs to believe in herself and learn how to pamper herself after a lifetime of looking after others. I loved how sensitive you were to her feelings Trinny and now you boosted her confidence. She reminds me of Lulu and she is fa-bul-ous darling.

[@lisapiche8900]

This might be my new favorite episode. Clare and I are at the same stages In our life. Glorious and brave Clare.❤

[@LNR]

Love that she embraced the floral suit after all - still brave after all! 👏😍

[@Hello-Stoiko]

Claire is so self aware and said things that resonate with me. She’s glamorous. Her eyes are amazing.

[@somuchdesignwithhanne]

Well done, Trinny - this was so amazing. Claire looked defeated when she arrived, I shed a little tear for her. She came out victorious with her strength back, so incredible. Go Claire! Go conquer the next chapter of your life 💕

[@367Play]

She is STUNNING. She had it all along. 😊

[@yayahulles]

Oh my goodness she got the flowered suit!!! Her new look is beyond brilliant and her confidence is off the wall 💛 Well done Trinny it's going to be hard to surpass this make over!

[@kathleenphipps2532]

I'm in tears after watching Trinny help women realize they're beautiful Such an uplifting thing you do Trinny ❤️

[@kimberleestern8757]

You look fabulous Clare! You are stunning and that eye color!

[@cocoatmidnight7611]

This make over was amazing. Claire became the confidant woman that was inside her wanting to be released. Great job Trinny.

[@annettegottlieb4308]

One of the best episodes yet! Thoroughly enjoyed it! The Master Colourist made the right decision to not make massive changes to the hair colour as such but just subtle touches and highlights to the grey. The modern hair cut does it all together with the fantastic Make-Up and outfit. Clare is literally glowing.

[@veroniqueb.4471]

Wow wow wowwwwww !! She is absolutely beautiful !! The hair, the makeup, the pink, the sparkles ! BRAVO to the Trinny team, really good job, she’s got out of her shell and she’s glowing !

[@kellyhuggins4791]

Wow! I had goosebumps when Claire came out. What a fantastic transformation 🥲🥲

[@amf3011]

Claire looks absolutely amazing. Trinny therapy works everytime

[@cribergamini]

What an amazing lady Clare is, and you Trinny, you are so sensible and generous. Thank you for bringing me spontaneous joy and true feelings with this ephisode (I watch them as often as I can, but this one was special). Congratulations Clare! Thank you Trinny! Hugs from Italy!

[@flowerpink724]

This is the best transformation ever ! She looks so beautiful sexy and edgy. Well done Trinny team. And well done Claire ! You haven't used up all your bravery by far ❤

[@cazrowley4453]

I identified with Clare so much, I’m 57 in a couple of weeks. I’m running on empty with some ongoing long term health issues and I’ve lost my fighting spirit. It was so wonderful to see Clare rise like a Phoenix, she looked absolutely stunning. Well done Trinny and Co and congratulations Clare may you have found yourself again and enjoy the future xxx

[@rohinichandrashekar9508]

Have I used up all my bravery? Is such a fantastically true thing to say, certainly resonates with me and am sure with other women too! Thank you Trinny, this was eye opening at many levels.

[@manchesterstress9055]

Blimey! Everyone in our office is in tears!! WHAT an inspirational episode!

[@corinnejansingh9426]

So glad they kept the hair gray, suits her very well. So does the pink! what a fantastic look!

[@melaniecannan3729]

Clare is so beautiful, and she doesn't even realise it! So lovely to watch the transformation x

[@annalilka]

Best example, that we don't always see ourselves for the best that we actuallyare. Amazing transformation!

[@minetree01]

Clare is magical, and the final reveal is gorgeous. Her skin and hair color and beautiful blue eyes are amazing with the silver and pink outfit. And, I love the eye makeup, it really shows her incredible coloring. Bravo!

[@premeelabalani2558]

Amazing transformation. You can really see Trinny's devotion to help Claire. Great job Trinny and her team! Felt like crying while I was watching this eposide.

[@fionamackenzie737]

Crying through the full reveal!! Clare looked stunning in that pink suit and her hair is absolutely gorgeous. Love love love it. Chuckled at seeing the photos of her sporting the flowery number she originally hated a few days later 😊

[@sarahgillen5281]

Well done Trinny. Such a lovely person and utterly transformed.

[@eugenandcorneliamaier6367]

[@tmackie1694]

WOW! Claire! What a GORGEOUS woman. What an inspiration. Love that hair!

[@biancaslens]

I loved this so much ❤ she looks incredible! Her inner beauty was highlighted even more 🌈

What a lovely episode, Trinny really did so beautifully with this stunning BRAVE lady...a little emotional 😢

[@emsmac80]

Wow, how lovely and how gorgeous. I bet she made us all cry 🙈

[@jadejohns3107]

OMG T R I N N Y you are the B E S T. Have you ‘used up all your courage’, could so apply to how I have felt at times. I have always loved self expression through clothing and you have inspired me to rediscover all that magic at a moment of huge change. Thank you.

[@janenewman3467]

Claire looked more and more incredible in every outfit you put her in. Stunning lady

[@sallykins3800]

Oh my goodness she looks incredible, the makeup, skin , hair, clothes, the lot . Excellent Makeover

[@melindalow8526]

That pink suit looks so beautiful! Claire looks amazing

[@ievamillers9383]

Very intriguing episode. So much going on, on so many levels. She looks like a model before - and after. Stunning! But there is definitely something deep down inside of her that she needs to address. It's all in her eyes.

[@lynndenault4212]

Life does have a way of knocking us down over the years.

[@bettyboop8529]

Wow Clare is so beautiful. Even before the hair and makeup in the changing room with the oatmeal top covering her and the soft lighting, her face looked so stunning. Big shock at the very end with the extra photos she sent in..! Love it 💞💞

[@helennicholls8030]

Best episode! I cried too. Claire was so incredibly brave, and to see her after photos wearing the clothes she thought were over the top for her when first trying them in the shop, was fantastic. 🎉

[@CrystalSelf]

Love that she kept some of the natural gray hair. She is lovely.

[@KPJPflorida]

Her inner beauty shines outside as well as in! Enjoy your new found confidence! Well done Trinny your everyone’s fairy godmother 🪄

[@laineydunlop2161]

So many things Clare said resonated with me. I have no waist, I look like a rectangle that won’t look good on me, I can’t wear that. I usually feel emotional watching these makeovers but this one hit home harder. She looked absolutely stunning at the end and could see her good points. What an amazing job and what a gift Trinny has given this woman through the show. Loved it. Can’t wait for my copy of Fearless ❤❤❤

[@jacquibarratt2396]

Absolutely brilliant - Claire looked amazing.

[@Kat333ify]
