Beauty is in the eye of the beholder someone once said yet the beauty industry is one of the biggest in the world. Even our humble little website represents quite a few Shrewsbury businesses in Health & Beauty. From gyms to massage and everything in between, people love it.
There's a lot of pressure to be beautiful. Seeing Angelina Jolie swanning around is fine for me but my wife will always make some kind of barbed comment. Just like I do when World's Strongest Man is on. A lot of us go to the gym, sure, but is it to stay healthy or to look good? I love going to the gym but I've got to say I hate it when some big bloke walks in and starts lifting twice as many weights as me using just his little finger.
An interesting new business coming onboard thebestof Shrewsbury this week is the growing area of Permanent Cosmetics. That's basically make-up that stays "on" for years. Colour injected under the skin and so on. Jeanette Dando is a cosmetic technician in Shrewsbury who's Harley Street trained and see that her clients wake up just as beautiful as when they went to bed! Tempted? Then by all means give Jeanette a bell on 01743 344715.
Estee Lauder is one of the biggest names in make-up and the woman herself must have died very rich indeed. Yet if anyone's cynical about success in the beauty world, one of her famous quotes is "Whatever you give comes back to you". A nice code to live by, I reckon. And Ms Lauder lived till she was 97.
