Part II

Good. That's where I started a while ago with a fresh little column. Help May and her skin through the summer. I had two weeks of filming for Holland’s Next Topmodel ahead of me and was tired of the pitying head shakes from makeup artists when they saw my problem situation. That chin of mine cost them a standard ten extra minutes in makeup. So I decided to intervene and rang Jetske Ultee. Anyway, you knew that.

First, she calmly advised me, because it was going to be fine, to mix jojoba oil with some tea tree oil. I had to apply it very gently in the evening on my cleansed skin, and it would calm the underlying misery a bit.

Then she asked me to park all my favorites from my vanity in a locked cabinet. Nothing is more delightful than my luxury beauty products, but many products contain perfume, and my skin needed to be approached as irritant-free as possible. Jetske sent me her Uncover products. Paraben-free, fragrance-free, well everything a person like me needed. Would Jetske get very angry if I told her that I secretly applied the new serum from Sisley every night? Luckily, I was allowed to keep using my makeup. 1TP5Sighofrelief.

Then I received a little pill from Jetske. Comparable to an antibiotic course but mainly with a good effect for the skin (yes!) and you don't become resistant to it. Bingo. Efracea. Remember that name.

“Let’s bring some calm to the tent, and then I want to see you for a laser treatment,” said doctor Jetske. During the filming of Holland’s Next, every makeup artist (and there were quite a few) said I had such a great skin. “You should have seen it a month ago,” I would say and started my praise for Jetske.

When I return from vacation, Jetske is at the top of my call list. She thinks my skin is ready for the skin-improving vitamin A acid. It does have a side effect. You will look younger.

I've been living foundation-free throughout my entire vacation. The destination was actually reached after two weeks, but the whole process is so enjoyable, and it’s also great fun with Jetske in the pen, so I’ll keep going. Destination looks like 36 while you’re actually 41, is that something?
