In my teenage years I could pretty much slather my face in the cheapest Nivea face cream and still have glowing skin but those days are sadly long gone.

The main problem with the design is the disjointed mix of colours that do not sit well together. Blackwood has claimed that she took inspiration from the Scottish seasons so I am baffled why this has resulted in the choice of fuchsia, turquoise and caramel.
