I'm all about the body shop hemp hand cream too. Though my boss accuses me of running a cannabis factory from my desk

I would also like to thank cod for the vitalumiere tip - I love it and I've been trying to find a foundation I like for years. I will check out that Barbara Daly concealer (is that from Tesco?)

But thats significant in itself

it's about £9 in Lush, aitch.

their Dream Cream is FAB and, for a quick way to scent your room or wardrobe, try one of their bubble bar slices.

every time teh scent starts to fade, just break another piece of it off.

i take their bar soaps on holiday or for camping - have done for ages - because they're great not just for your hair but to wash clothes in a pinch.

not really a beauty tip, but for those of you who need a toothbrush holder for your electric brush, try this one:

lockandlock

lush do a brilliant face mask as well, i think it's the grape one. totally calms your skin if you have become a bit sensitised.
