At 103 years old, dispensing pearls of wisdom is second nature to Joan Partridge. But even she was surprised when a video of her applying rouge found an appreciative audience of almost 200,000 on TikTok.
“I do my makeup every day, every morning, I think it is your confidence,” said Partridge, who is the eldest resident at Millcroft care home in Redditch, Worcestershire. Since the video went viral, Partridge has caught the attention of a cosmetics company which is keen to collaborate with her.
