Louise Thompson ditches heavy make-up for ‘filter free’ video
MADE in Chelsea favourite Louise Thompson went ‘filter-free’ as she showed off her natural look in a new Instagram clip.
The star, 33, gave fans a glimpse into her makeup routine as part of a ‘get ready with me’ video.
Louise showed her fans which products she uses to achieve a natural, everyday look after confessing she had switched all filters off in order to showcase her true skin and complexion.
As well as sharing her routine, Louise opened up on what make-up means to her as she confessed applying her make-up each day is the only time of her day that she gets to pause and remind herself that she is a ‘boss’.
Accompanying the video with a lengthy caption, Louise admitted: “Applying makeup offers a rare pause in my day. A moment just for me. Also a rare opportunity to look in the mirror and remind myself who’s boss.
“I might even say an affirmation or two. It’s become a bit of the ritual.”
Revealing she has some speed to her skill, the reality TV star admitted she isn’t one to take a long time to get ready in the morning.
Louise said: “Sometimes I even watch the clock to see how quickly I can do it. This time it was just under 9 minutes. 9 minutes out of my day doesn’t seem unreasonable.
She opened up further about her relationship with make-up and showing off natural beauty.
Insisting that she did not start applying make-up until she was 16 years old, Louise revealed that she used to get called out if she ever tried to wear heavy mascara in school.
The star added to her post: “Natural was the way and I still think that’s important for building confidence. I went to an all girls boarding school and if we even flirted with the idea of applying mascara we would get accused of ‘fancying teachers’ which was a bit silly, but I loved painting my face on the weekends.”
At the end of the clip, she revealed the final result of her ‘natural’ look.
Her fans were left gushing over her beauty as they begged her to share her secrets and reveal which products she had used in order to create a natural and youthful glow.
