Mum who gets glamorous makeovers while giving birth says it helps with labour

A mum of three has told how she had full makeover while giving birth to two of her kids so could look glamourous for the arrival.

Carly Temple had a beautician and a hairdresser working on her during labour as she didn't want to appear 'sweaty' in photographs, reports Wales Online.

The 23-year-old, who is a make-up artist and hairdresser, gave birth to her son JD on January 24, 2020 at 12.18am.

Speaking of the experience she said: "One of my friends is a make-up artist do I got up at 4am so she could do my make-up and I went into hospital for 5.30am.

"Most of the time when you see people post-birth they look sweaty. I wanted to look good so I could feel good about myself.

''My labour took 17 hours I was exhausted. I had my make-up done whilst I was in labour, all the doctors and nurses came in to see."

Carly has three children JD, three, Slayton, two and Lettie, four-months. During her first birth a make-up artist and hairdresser came into the glam her up whilst she gave birth.

Her second birth was a surprise so she didn't have time to prepare. But she planned ahead for her youngest daughter.

Her partner Mitchell, 27, then drove her to the hospital so she could give birth glamorously. Lettie arrived at 12.31pm on 26 October 2022 weighing 6lb2oz.

She said: "I wanted natural, dewy skin and to look refreshed and glowy. My friend did my make-up and then I went to the hospital.

"I did my hair my elf, I gave myself a blow-out. I was having contractions and was feeling everything at that point.

"My labour was great, it took five hours and I literally pushed once. I think it definitely helped the labour- when you look good, you feel good about yourself."
