Victoria's... skin
Victoria
has admitted that she's prone to oily skin and outbreaks
of spots, but these days she seems to have both problems
firmly under control. Of couse, Mrs Beckham has got a
lot more money than most to spend on beauty treatments
but the key to her skin success is finding products that
work for her and then sticking with them:
Victoria swears by Lancaster Re-Oxygen O2 Emulsion,
£43. This cream uses pure oxygen to de-stress, detoxify
and invigorate the skin. Go
to Lancaster's web site to find your nearest
stockist.
Every girl has a secret weapon and Victoria's is YSL
Touche Eclat, £21. Use sparingly under your eyes
for a brightening effect or to conceal blemishes and
spots for a flawless finish. What's even better is if
you buy
it online, you can save £3.50!

Victoria's... tan
The
weather will be nice and hot in her new home city of
Madrid, but for an all-year-round sun-kissed glow,
Victoria chooses her colour from a bottle. Victoria
swears by St Tropez and here's how you can get
your hands on a bottle:
Buy
St Tropez online from Wellbeing. The self-tan spray and
mousse starts from £20
Can't be bothered to apply it yourself? Hundreds of
salons offer St Tropez treatments. Get the St Tropez Air
Treatment for £35. Call 0115 922 1462 for details.
SKIN
Tanning:
We can't remember the last time we saw a picture of
Victoria without an all-over tan. Sensibly, her bronze
glow comes from a bottle, and her favourite is St
Tropez. Victoria has four salon sessions a month,
for one hour each time. It's cheaper than a monthly trip
to Barbados, but is still more expensive than a quick
once-over with a used teabag. What, you haven't tried
it?
Cost per month: £160.
Skincare: If there's one beauty routine Victoria
throws money at (ok, we know there's more than one) it's
her skincare routine. Posh has sensitive skin and
suffered from acne as a teenager. She splashes out on
Dermalogica products, specially formulated for her skin
type, and cleanses, tones and moisturises daily. She
also has a weekly facial. For more information about
Dermalogica call 0800 591818.
Cost per month: Products: £100. Four one-hour
facials: £216. Total: £316.
Pampering / de-stressing: She might not jet off
to Barbados to top up her tan, but Victoria does spend
an average of one weekend a month 'de-stressing' at a
luxury location in a bid to keep those wrinkles and
worry lines at bay. When in Spain, royalty and
jetsetters like the Beckhams chill out at Marbella
Club Hotel, Golf Resort and Spa. One night in the
five-bedroom villa at the Marbella Club Hotel will set
the Beckhams back a cool £2,445.
Cost per month: £4,890.
Total splurge on skincare per month: £5,366. |
