Pregnant woman shares her 'pre-labour makeover' - including fake tan routine

A pregnant woman who wanted to look her best when she gave birth has shared her glam 'pre-labour makeover' - that includes a round of fake tan and a make-up routine. Indy Clinton, 25, painted her fingernails pink and her toenails orange, and made sure she looked bronze enough as her contractions began.

She then put on the clothes she'd set aside for the big day and headed to the hospital in Sydney, Australia, on Friday, October 14, to deliver her child. She shared her beauty regime on TikTok and her fans were left gobsmacked, but she failed to report how her look was received at the hospital.

Taking to TikTok, Indy, who uploads as @indyclinton, said: "God that was a waste of $40, it doesn't look like anything has changed. But I did go wild on my toes though and I went orange.

"I'm going to fake tan now and wash my hair, I'm only washing my hair because I don't want to wash it when I have fake tan on."

She then jumped in the shower, and while wrapped in a white towel she resumed talking through her beauty routine.

She continued: "I'm just moisturising my face quickly, then I'll fake tan. By the way, my induction is not tonight. Someone said, 'why am I fake tanning for labour?'

"Do I wanna look ugly while I'm pushing a child out from my... no!"

The video then jumps, and it skips to a bronzed Indy combing her hair.

She added: "OK, I don't have long I'm just going to do my hair, I might actually put it in rollers, you know what I mean?"

She then holds up a bra and asked: "Should I wear this in labour? Last time I wore the hospital gown but I don't like the vibe of it, made my shoulders look really broad, and they're already broad."

After sharing her video on TikTok, Indy was inundated with praise from her fans - as many were impressed by her beauty routine.

One wrote: "Best wishes my love! You're gonna do amazing mumma."

Then another added: "It's getting so close! You're looking amazing mama."

But then another user asked Indy a practical question: "Do you use more tan since your belly has grown?"

And Indy soon replied: "Yes! Like half the bottle or more."
