November is National Healthy Skin Month

3 days ago

PHOTOGRAPHS OF NATASHA BERESFORD MISS LONDON BY ALAN STRUTT

November  marks the beginning of National Healthy Skin Month in the USA, a time to celebrate and promote healthy skin habits!

To celebrate the occasion we wanted to share some skincare tips and advice which you may find helpful.

This month-long event was created to raise awareness about how important it is to take care of your skin. It’s also an opportunity for people to learn more about the different factors that can affect their skin health and how they can best keep their skin looking and feeling its best. So why not  join in the celebration and show your skin some love this November and in future!

Natasha Beresford – Make up free Miss London, and the new face of CETUEM ! Photo by Alan Strutt

Natasha Beresford appeared in media throughout the world in October this year completely make up free when she won Miss Englands first ever make up free regional heat sponsored by CETUEM LONDON a British Made family run skincare brand.

Natasha realises the importance of looking after your skin ….

“Following a skincare routine and choosing the right products is so important to me” said Natasha” .  I suffered with acne as a teenager and into my early 20s, and I really struggled with finding the right products that wouldn’t cause a flare up. I was really insecure about my skin and even after my acne cleared, I struggled with hyperpigmentation for years. I’ve found that following a good skincare routine has not only improved my complexion, but has also reduced my skin issues and boosted my self-confidence!

Using the Cetuem skincare range has truly transformed my skin and has allowed me to feel confident in my own skin without wearing any makeup!”

Natasha recommends the SCR Gold Illuminating Skin Cleanser & SCR Gold Illuminating Skin Toner.   ” I currently use the SCR Gold Intensive Serum & SCR Gold Crème De Lite Moisturiser. I also love to use the SCR Gold Golden Glow Gel Skin Luminosity when I want that extra glow! I will put it over my moisturiser when I’m make up free, and will use it under my foundation when I wear makeup.

Head over to the CETUEM website to find out more about the brand by clicking the logo here

How you can Celebrate ​National Healthy Skin Month

Eat skin-healthy foods

Increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables, fatty fish, and nuts can have a positive effect on your skin. Choose colorful fruits and vegetables that are rich in antioxidants and vitamins, such as berries, spinach, sweet potatoes, and bell peppers.

Cleanse daily

Gently cleanse your skin twice a day with a mild cleanser to help remove debris, sweat, and excess oil. Make sure to avoid cleansers with harsh ingredients that could irritate your skin.

Moisturize regularly

Moisturizing with a hydrating lotion helps to protect your skin from the elements. Look for lotions that contain natural ingredients like aloe vera or shea butter.

Use sunscreen

Sun exposure is one of the leading causes of premature aging, so make sure to apply sunscreen on exposed areas of your skin every day. Choose a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.

Treat yourself to a facial

Treat yourself to a relaxing facial to pamper your skin. A facial can help to deep clean your pores, reduce inflammation and redness, and leave you feeling rejuvenated.

 

Why ​National Healthy Skin Month is Important

Improves overall health and wellbeing

Good skincare is essential for general health and wellbeing. It helps protect you from the sun’s harmful rays, fights stubborn acne breakouts, and keeps your skin looking youthful and refreshed. Taking care of your skin now can help prevent more serious issues down the line, so it’s definitely worth investing some time in doing so!

Promotes a healthy self image

Taking care of your skin can be one of the most important things you do to boost your self-image. Knowing that you look as best as possible can make a huge difference in terms of feeling good about yourself – so make sure to take some time this month to give your skin the proper love and attention it deserves!

Encourages better practices

National Healthy Skin Month is not only about promoting healthier habits for our own well being – it’s also about encouraging others around us to do the same. By creating greater awareness around good skincare practices, we can help create positive changes that will benefit ourselves and those around us.

Meet National Numeracy’s newest ambassador!

1 week ago

National Numeracy is thrilled to announce that current Miss England, internationally signed fashion model and aerospace engineering graduate Jessica Gagen is our latest celebrity ambassador!

Jessica joined in time for Number Confidence Week and is keen to promote the importance of everyday numeracy among children and adults, the opportunities afforded by STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) and how National Numeracy can help people wishing to improve their number skills and confidence.

Gaining confidence in maths

With a degree in aerospace engineering from the University of Liverpool, you may think Jessica Gagen sailed through maths education, but as she explains, she didn’t always find the subject easy. However, it was possible to improve with some extra determination…

“I would say that maths, like any subject, has a wide spectrum of content, and there have been many times I’ve felt behind and unable to catch up with my peers – it’s not a nice feeling!” Jessica tells us.

“I actually dropped A Level Maths because I lacked confidence in the subject, but years down the line I gained the confidence to teach myself at a pace best for me, both before and during my degree, as I needed a high mathematical ability to gain entry and to keep up with my class – I was determined to prove to myself that I was capable.

“I’ve always enjoyed solving puzzles and doing things which challenge me, so overall, my relationship with everyday maths has generally been good – albeit I still make mistakes every now and then, which is completely normal!”

Numeracy can help us improve our everyday lives

So what inspired Jessica – the first engineer to win the title of Miss England – to become a National Numeracy ambassador?

“I’m passionate about helping children realise the skills that they already possess to become brilliant scientists and engineers, and educating the older generation as to how they can help to make that happen,” smiles Jessica.

“Numeracy is a skill which helps us improve our everyday lives, yet a lot of us suffer from maths anxiety.

“National Numeracy are aware of this and of the fact that we all learn at different speeds, which is why they’ve developed some excellent resources for those who struggle with their confidence surrounding numbers.”

[Check out the Number Confidence Week hub]

Jessica is keen to practice numeracy skills wherever possible in her own everyday life too…

“I’m a rewards member of different hotels and airlines where you get told what points you’ll earn for a booking, but they’ll only actually register a few days afterwards,” she explains.

“I like to figure out what my balance will be before the points are automatically added so that I can work out whether I can get my next hotel stay for free!

“I also like running – I use an app which measures my time and after each kilometre it tells me the time for the kilometre I’ve just completed and then my overall time so far. I like to try and figure out the overall time as soon as I’m told the time for the most recent kilometre, so that I can speed up if needed!”

Jessica’s message for Number Confidence Week

For Number Confidence Week, Jessica has an encouraging message for anyone interested in improving their numeracy:

“There should be nothing embarrassing about needing help to practice numerical skills – a want to improve your skills is something to be proud of!”

Daring Acrobat & dancer sets the bar high in the Miss England Talent round

2 weeks ago

Nina Peniasko (26) was born in  Kettering Northamptonshire & has been studying acrobatic gymnastics for 2 years. Before this, she did contemporary, commerical, hip hop and ballet. Nina began dancing at the age of 16 years…  She opened up her own dance school at 18 but wanted to push herself further after experiencing bad relationships which knocked her confidence.

Nina is now the first acrobat to ever reach the Miss England semi final & she’s submitted her entry into the semi final Talent round with a daring hand balancing acrobatic act on You Tube with her performing partner Joel and hopes the judges will select her for the finals.

“I would consider myself both a dancer & acrobat but I do focus most of my attention on my acrobatics” said Nina who is currently practising with her coach abroad.

“I think not only is it a beautiful and sophisticated sport, it also demanding and gives me an adrenaline rush like no other! I practice with my coach Joel Serrano currently in Tenerife but I’ve trained with a few other acro coaches also!

One of which being my sponsor who actually does acrobatics on skates !

My sponsor Adam Jukes competed in “Britain’s got Talent”  with the act named Rosie and Adam .

 

I would say acrobatics is an incredibly dangerous sport and when performing or learning stunts I am risking myself everyday but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I have had a few falls before and I successfully recovered well!

I will continue to do this sport as long as my body allows me to because I absolutely LOVE IT!”

 

 

 

Nina will be competing in the Miss England semi final at VIVA BLACKPOOL on Sunday 7th April 2024 with 50 other women from across the country & is sponsored by RealSpacePugs

Miss England organiser’s couldn’t think of a more iconic and suitable location to hold the next Miss England semi final contest with the current winner Jessica Gagen, hailing from Skelmersdale Lancashire .  Director of Miss England , Angie Beasley said “We want Jessica to compete in Miss World as the reigning Miss England and we wanted to mark Jessica’s one year reign with the semi final in her home county” .

Jessica said: “The contest making an appearance in the north west is fantastic, as a lot of our past national finalists have hailed from the area.  Before becoming Miss England I was Miss Lancashire, which encompasses the city – one I used to visit annually to watch the air show on the beach!”
