I have decided now I am in my 30's I really need to start taking care of my skin which is in bad condition and my hair which has been overdyed.

I have started having monthly facials to rehydrate my skin which is very dry (it used to be oily in my teens but now is very dry all over) but need to find a good skin care regime (cleansing, toning and moisturising). I never really do anything except for splash my face with water in the morning and moisturise when I remember to which is twice a month Blush.

I also have never moisturised my body so need to start doing that. What do I use? Everytime I have done it I have gone through half a bloody bottle which seems like it might end up being expensive. I am a size 16 so mot massive!

Finally my hair has been bleached and highlighted and lowlighted so many times this year. I also use a very spikey brush (the sort you use to blow dry hair) which I think might be breaking it off. I need some products to get some moisture back into the hair and to repair all the damage done. I already had 7 inches cut off to remove some damage.

Please give me ideas of amazing products that will sort my tired old body out Grin.

Thank you!

For your hair you need this - it's brilliant!

I'd use a wide tooth comb when out of the shower and on wet hair and then the above product on the ends and then your usual stylish spray/gel/mousse etc

I would buy whatever bogof deals there are in the supermarket and use daily.

Watching this thread, I also have no clue about face care and also want to start now I'm approaching 30. What face care routine? Cleanse, tone moisturise? Morning or night? What products? Please help!

With regards to your hair, i found that not matter what i did to my hair when i was bleaching it, it always felt like straw. but try a hair mask, the Dove one is brilliant. But i have heard amazing things from l'oreal mythical oil, a tad like the moroccan oil.

For my skin care, i use dermalogica, clarins and clinique, i would really recomend clarins, a tad expensive but amazing.
