Hello!! I'm Amanda

 I'm delighted to share a little about myself and my journey towards DIY skincare. My name is Amanda, and I live in the picturesque landscapes of North Yorkshire, UK. When i was 51 years old, I discovered a newfound passion for taking care of my skin and want to empower other women & men to do the same. My life is filled with a delightful menagerie. As an animal lover, I proudly care for seven rescue cats, a thriving community of rabbits that I lovingly breed, and a cheerful flock of chickens. They bring joy and companionship to my days, reminding me of the beauty and simplicity of life. It wasn't until four years ago that I stumbled upon a video by Kim from Natural Kaos, which changed the course of my skincare journey forever. Intrigued by the concept of DIY skincare, I realized that I, too, could embark on this path independently. Inspired to share my experiences and insights with others, I wanted to offer tips and tricks that could help fellow women & men in their own skincare journeys, learning to do our own DIY Botox, Fillers, Peels, Mesotherapy etc Marriage has been a constant source of love and support in my life, as I've been happily married for over 30 years. Together, my spouse and I have raised a daughter, a son, and, sadly, an angel son. The joys and challenges of running a family and maintaining a home are familiar to me. I am a regular person with everyday struggles, including time constraints, financial limitations, and battles with mental health. But through it all, I've discovered that it is still possible to prioritize self-care and embark on a DIY skincare adventure.​ Empowerment lies at the heart of my message. I want to inspire others to take control of their skincare routines and embrace the possibilities that DIY treatments offer. Despite the hurdles we face, from lack of time and money to mental health issues, I believe we can all find the strength and resources within ourselves to nurture our skin. In my blog, I'll be sharing my personal experiences, discussing DIY techniques such as botox, fillers, threads, and microneedling. I aim to provide step-by-step instructions, highlight affordable alternatives, and address the common challenges we encounter. Through my writing, I hope to empower women (and men) reassuring them that they have the ability to care for their skin, even amidst the chaos of everyday life. I would love for you to join me on this exciting journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Let's debunk the myth that skincare treatments are exclusively for the privileged few. Together, we can show the world that with determination, resourcefulness, and a little creativity, anyone can achieve glowing, healthy skin. Remember, you can do this! Wishing you radiant skin and endless possibilities, let’s all get ready to start Ageing Disgracefully Amanda​
