The Amazon keratin hair smoothing kit - my once frizzy haystack has been transformed in to big swishy waves.

A truly life changing product for the crappy haired.

Sally Henson leg make up means I can take the bluish colour of my legs and cover up small veins without looking like an oompaloompa

Babyliss big hair is on my list Smile

My hair is quite fine so GHDs dont do much for me...I wonder if the keratin would work. I can't risk anything that might make my hair lank

Weleda birch cellulite oil. I don't rate their other stuff much, but this is excellent. You are meant to body brush, shower and then massage it in. I've tried the body brushing and other treatments, but this one has made a huge difference.

Coconut oil.

My hair actually grows past my shoulders now, despite me murdering it with bleach and GhDs it has forgiven me thanks to a weekly slathering in the stuff!

isaac I love double wear light for coverage and texture but the Colour is just not right for me unfortunately.

dirtyface - did it take a while for your skin to adjust to OCM? My skin has recently got oilier and I'm looking for a new skin care regime but can't face something that initially makes me look shite

can anything out of a bottle change your life? Hmm

If I had to choose 1 only it would be a sun block- Clinique City Block which I've used for over 20 years and have no wrinkles ( now mid 50s) which I put down to using it 365 days a year.

missbopeep really? They can't? I'm utterly distraught to learn that my life will now continue along the same path, unchanged by the purchase of these miracle products.


I'm sorry you did not appreciate the lighthearted nature of my post Hmm < back atcha!

Ghd ceramic barrel brush means I can blow dry my curly frizzy hair smooth vv easily

Clarins multi active day cream. My perfect moisturiser for glowy skin.

But number 1 world's best product for me, cos my nails are always painted, is nails inc Albert bridge topcoat. You just can't mess up your nails if you use this, either while you're painting them because it corrects all mistakes, or afterwards cos they last a week with no chips.
