You'd look prettier with snails all over your face, by our TikTok beauty influencer

With Kat Goombs, your Gen X Tiktok beauty influencer guiding you through Korean skincare like a KPop Demon Hunter for crones

SINCE childhood I’ve felt a deep connection to the gastropod. Who could forget those endless, dreamy summers sewing them together for an epic snail conga? 

And so this month I’m loving Lancombe’s ‘Juicy Lady’ Snail Trail Mucin, at just £3,985 for a 20ml syringe and the Clear Smear applicator thrown in absolutely free. Cate Blanchett uses it obsessively.

It’s fair to say after one application I was literally transformed. My skin was glowing, my tongue deep-pile furred and one glance through the window revealed how green, luxurious and delectable the neighbour’s delphiniums looked.

Next thing I knew? I was being rudely poked awake with a rake by said neighbour, who I assume was extremely agitated by my unblemished, ageless complexion. And also that I was nude in their garden and said delphiniums were no more than ragged stalks in dirt.

Moving slowly, so as not to crack my new Gen Z face, I inched into the shade and within the hour was feeling fabulously moist and was able to rise and stroll confidently back to my own house, like a real woman.

Now my face is glistening like a well-lubed speculum  and my bowels have never been more productive. Soon I’ll develop a hard, changeless carapace from which only a moist face emerges, and isn’t that the ideal woman?

So go on, my loves! If you want to make men gasp and say ‘Why are you so… slimy?’ and ‘I respect a woman who only eats salad, and that very slowly’ then get out there and gastropod that bod!

And if you don’t earn enough, use slugs. Like men, they enjoy it when you pretend to be dead.

Your astrological week ahead for April 11th, with Psychic Bob

Aries, March 21st–April 19th

Is Don’t Look Now really such a classic? You followed the instructions and you didn’t see anything scary or Julie Christie’s tits.

Taurus, April 20th–May 20th

Save time listening to the average British politics podcast by saying something obvious to yourself and being more of a wanker.

Gemini, May 21st–June 21st

Do your research before a job interview and impress the interviewer by getting their name tattooed on your neck. 

Cancer, June 22nd–July 22nd

Who’s this guy ‘The Straight of Hormuz’? He sounds a bit up himself. You don’t get people calling themselves The Gay of the Norfolk Broads.

Leo, July 23rd–August 22nd

‘I hope my leg don’t break, walking on the moon’ sang Sting, displaying an impressive knowledge of microgravity-induced osteoporosis. It’s a shame Ash didn’t show the same scientific rigour when they wrote Girl From Mars.

Virgo, August 23rd–September 22nd

You’d be more open to the idea of a throuple if you didn’t have to say a wanky portmanteau word every time someone asks if you’re in a relationship.

Libra, September 23rd–October 22nd

A people pleaser is bad, but a crowd pleaser is good. So really it just depends on the number of people you’re pleasing. The hypocrisy is sickening.

Scorpio, October 23rd–November 21st

Every time you show a woman your vinyl collection she never seems very impressed by a length of drainpipe and a 1970s car seat.

Sagittarius, November 22nd–December 21st

You don’t understand why people write in to agony aunts about things like shagging their wife’s mum. Are they expecting them to say ‘Great stuff, carry on’?

Capricorn, December 22nd–January 19th

The moral of the story is: by faking an interplanetary invasion you can fool your fellow Remulakians and live happily on Earth permanently. The story was Coneheads.

Aquarius, January 20th–February 18th

Actually this town is easily big enough for the both of us. I’m the new beta male sheriff.

Pisces, February 19th–March 20th 

Credit to socially-responsible bookies Paddy Power for their anti-betting adverts telling the public that gambling is for twats like Danny Dyer and Gemma Collins.
