I know there are plenty of favourite products threads but what is your number 1, better than any of the competition can't live without favourite.

I fancy a but of a change/splurge so am after recommendations.

I might stick to rinsing with peroxide. My teeth are fucked, anyway. Poverty does terrible things to the gnashers of a chain-smoking caffeine addict Blush

Egyptian Magic

I've recently started oil pulling, I got a jar of coconut oil from Tesco. Been using it once a day for about a week, usually when I'm in the shower. When my jaw gets tired I just let it kind of sit in my mouth until I start again. My teeth are really whiter than that they were already.

as soon as amazon delivers my coconut oil I'm going to give it a go!
doing it in the bath/shower sounds like a good idea:o

dirtyface · 28/07/2013 17:38

how do you not gag with oil in your mouth for that long?

NotAroundTheEyes · 28/07/2013 19:30

I thought oil pulling was just oil cleansing - pulling blackheads/spots etc. out of the skin Shock Am HORRIFIED at what it really is!

Vesta can you tell us more about Egyptian Magic?? I've just googled and I'm intrigued and am a sucker for a cult product

valiumredhead · 28/07/2013 19:33

Weirdly you don't gag when oil pulling. You think you will, but you don't at all.

garlicagain · 28/07/2013 19:41

I've just tried it. Couldn't keep it up.
My teeth feel weirdly smooth, though Grin

Parlux hairdryer
Clarins serum

Omg, and Palmolive shower cream. Better than all the expensive ones I've ever used.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 28/07/2013 20:04

Not life changing, but Flexitol has deffo been foot changing!

And Benetint gives my pale face a bit of colour and is so stupidly easy to put on that even a lazy slob like me can bother with it every day.

Panoxyl until they discontinued it.

Eyesential. Applied properly it is better than Botox.

Gel nails.

Amazon's keratin treatment - miracle for under 30 GBP.

Coconut oil - I have the driest skin in the world, have tries everything including creme de la mer and this is truly, truly amazing.

Origins Vitazing - moisturiser with weird pigment (one tone suits all skin colours). Makes me look like 16 month old lets me sleep and it gives me glow without a hint of glitter or sheen.

SarahGoodwin33 · 28/07/2013 22:08

Bare minerals foundation (discovered after my electrolysis, see profile for explanation!)

Clinique colour surge lippy

janesaysl · 28/07/2013 22:16

Clarins beauty flash balm, I put it under my eyebrows and it really lifts.

Ooh and I love blue eyedew drops before a night out, they make my eyes brighter and whiter, though my optician told me not to use them daily. I don't go out much so I'm sure it's ok!

madmomma · 29/07/2013 08:58

def going to get me some coconut oil for all of the above uses. It's a cliche but my life-changing product has to be Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair. £££ but it makes me look younger - simple as.

I also love the palmolive shower creme in a huge pump bottle. Cheap and lovely.

My best at-home treatment has to be l'occitane almond shower oil as a base, then granulated sugar rubbed all over the top til it melts. Leaves me shining like a new pin.
