Her beauty hack is no longer under wraps. UK-based makeup influencer Sam Begum is dividing the Internet with her head-scratching yet speedy makeup routine: a full face of cosmetics applied to a piece of plastic wrap at night, then slapped on her face in the morning. Videos of her technique have racked up nearly 10 million views on TikTok in recent weeks.

The next morning, she finishes the routine by reversing the plastic and placing the side with the cosmetics on her face.

A lip gloss pulls it all together — all while Begum walks out of her apartment building. @sxmiabegum anything for an extra 20 mins in bed🫶🏽 @Lancôme foundation @Saie blush @Diorbeauty stick contour @Huda Beauty lip oil ♬ original sound – Mell ❤︎︎ 'Girl mathing 20 more minutes in bed,' reads the caption of one of her videos showing the technique, which has amassed over seven million views since it was posted June 30.

Shouts of 'shame' ring-out during Swindon council asylum debate
Conservative councillors were heckled with shouts of "shame" during a council debate on asylum motion, which failed to pass, proposed the Cabinet produce a report on how Swindon can avoid its housing stock from being used to house asylum seekers, saying working Swindon people feel like "second class citizens".Council Leader Jim Robbins said there are no asylum seekers in council properties calling the proposal "poorly thought out".During the debate which included several passionate speeches, Labour Councillor Repi Begum, spoke about her lived experience and called the arguments from the opposition "racist tropes" - something that was denied. The motion was proposed by Conservative Councillor Daniel Adams and seconded by fellow Tory Councillor Gayle Cook who said that local people should be "put first" adding "charity starts at home".Labour and Liberal Democrat councillors voted unanimously against the motion with 12 Conservatives voting for it - resulting in it failing to Adams also asked for £238,000 of council money to be put into local services and not into housing asylum Robbins said this money is used for emergency accommodation which prioritises Swindon families with children but that also includes giving those granted a right to remain in the UK a temporary home whilst permanent accommodation is that he was "really pleased the motion was defeated" and that he was "proud" of Swindon's history of "welcoming people from all over the world". During the debate references were made to the youth of Swindon being unable to afford housing or rent in the Begum said using arguments like "our children can't get homes is an age-old racist trope - they're taking our homes"."When people hear leaders using that language it allows the average Joe Bloggs to act up and that's why we had the race riots of Summer 2024," she added."It endangers people like me, a third generation Brit, a hard working, law abiding, higher rate tax paying, decent, civilised human being who happens to be British - like it or not."After several arguments for and against the motion, Mr Adams, said: "I never mentioned race once, I'm truly shocked, it's this rhetoric that's designed to shutdown debate and lead to the issues we're seeing on our streets today."Ms Begum closed the debate by saying: "When you say this isn't about racism, you haven't been attacked with a baseball bat walking down the street because politicians like you decide to tell who has a right to be here and who hasn't got a right to be here." In a recent report by the BBC the Business Secretary, Jonathan Reynolds said the government shared the public's "huge frustration" at the pressure the asylum system puts on housing acknowledged concern about the Home Office competing with local councils to find temporary homes for asylum seekers and homeless people said the solution lay in building more homes, processing asylum applications faster, removing those with no right to be in the UK and cutting small boat crossings.

Here's what went wrong with Uorfi Javed's filler dissolution; experts highlight what happens when a face enhancements is dissolved
Uorfi Javed, the social media sensation, on Sunday dropped a video showing her lip filler procedure, and the result of the treatment left the internet in shock. In the clip, the 'Traitor' winner's lips looked swollen, and her face was unrecognisable. However, Uorfi got her fillers dissolved after about 9 years, but does filler removal look this dramatic? Let's find out. Fillers have a huge fan base, and that's all because of their ability to contour and rejuvenate the face. But what happens when a person dissolves their fillers? Or what if, after the swelling has gone down, you should wait to take action? Experts regularly use hyaluronidase to dissolve hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers like Juvederm or Restylane. 'This enzyme breaks down HA by specifically targeting its molecular bonds, resulting in an immediate disintegration. The process begins right away; however, it may take hours or days before any discernible progress is made,' says Dr. Mahnaz Jahan Begum, an esteemed aesthetic expert, entrepreneur, and founder of Keradis, a board-certified super specialist, cosmetic plastic and hair transplant surgeon, and medical director of Aterm Clinics-Kolkata. Myths and facts decoded: What happens when a face filler is dissolved? As the filler dissolves, patients should expect to experience temporary swelling, redness, or mild unevenness before the skin gradually returns to its natural state. According to Dr. Begum, 'The majority of the filler is metabolised in 1-2 weeks, and most patients have an initial reduction in 24–48 hours. Subtle changes, however, may persist for as long as four weeks. After two weeks, a second session could be necessary to remove thicker or layered fillers completely. The final result is determined by the body's natural processes; thus, patience is essential.' Not all fillers can be reversed Only fillers based on HA react to hyaluronidase. 'Different methods are needed for substitutes like silicone or Sculptra. Mild swelling and transient indentation are frequent side effects that go away fast,' adds Dr. Begum. Although skin usually returns to its natural state, prolonged use of fillers may cause mild stretching. To guarantee safe and efficient treatment, always seek advice from a certified professional. How dangerous can face fillers be (are they fatal)? 'Face fillers are not deadly if a certified one is used and done by a professional trainer, and too much of everything is awful,' says Dr. Shilpi Behl, Aesthetic Expert & Trainer. Infections or allergic reactions could be faced by some individuals Filler migration is another negative effect if it happens! Wrong injection points can lead to vascular complications or even tissue necrosis. Gone are the days when people wanted those high cheeks and pouty lips. 'More subtle & natural' is what is in now. Maintenance is also necessary, as good fillers last a maximum of 1 year or so. Fillers can be dissolved instantly, but that particular facial area would take a few days to show the proper anatomy and shape.
