00:00Hello, everyone. Hope you're all happy and well. Have a nice day.

00:08Collection, shall I open it?

00:10Yeah, it's yours.

00:12I'm Joan Partridge. I like to put a lot of makeup on.

00:18I've always played about with makeup, and I love makeup,

00:22but I used to quietly take my sister's makeup,

00:27makeup with that, and then put it back again.

00:30And she didn't know, and poor soul, she's gone now.

00:34I've always gone mad on makeup somehow.

00:38When I was a kid, I always used to play makeup shops.

00:42You know, we'd go and buy that lipstick, what we saw,

00:46and just play about with it like that.

00:49So we used to like to do it, you know.

00:55Do you have any routine with your skin?

00:57No, I wish I could just put something on it, you know, go all over and do it like that.

01:06No, I don't, and I don't really have any trouble with my skin.

01:11What keeps me young and smiling is a drop of brandy, and I like brandy very much.

01:21I have brandy every night, but I only have a little drop, and I put lemonade in it because it sweetens it up a bit.

01:30And you must say to yourself, if you get up feeling nasty and not well, you must say,

01:38I'm not going to have that today.

01:40I'm going to be happy, and I will be happy, and they will be happy if they say it.

01:47They've got to say it, but they will be happy.

01:50And don't keep coming down and saying, I can't do this because I'm not well.

01:57Of course you will, it's just in your head you think you're not well.

02:00So you mustn't be silly like that, you must be strong.
