I have to admit I was a bit nervous speaking to award-winning aesthetic nurse Anna today. I am 39 and I have got lots of little lines cropping up on my forehead but I am resisting temptation.

I, however, had been caught out on a rare, sunny April morning and was bright red and more wrinkled than normal. We had a great time talking about everything from the perfect skin regime to sensitive
