What one simple grooming/beauty/style thing could make a difference...

...and help you feel a little better about yourself tomorrow?

Following on from the threads recently about people feeling frumpy/out-of-sorts/old/not as good as they could be, let's do something active and do one small thing tomorrow that could help us feel better and brighter!

I'm going to paint my toenails tomorrow, they look hideous over winter!

Over to you :)

A bottle of plain almond oil is great for hands and feet - massage a little in every night and sorts hands and and my usual winter hoof syndrome out. Costs about £3 and lasts for ages.

A new lipstick every couple of months is my main brighten up guarantee

Jackadaal, where do you buy your almond oil?
I've also heard that walnut oil is really good, but can't seem to find it locally.

Holland & Barrett for sweet almond oil

Oh good thread

For me it's probably doing a hair mask or oil, sometimes I sleep in it and hair looks much better in the morning.

Thanks Jackadaal.

Even fairly small Asian supermarkets should have almond oil.

I will say no to chocolate tonight. And apply some exfoliating night stuff. Always works a treat.

foolssilver which hair mask do you use?

I have not drunk any wine tonight, had an alcohol free day and am getting an early night. I will look better tomorrow!

Well done Paula!

Not that I'm alcohol dependent or anything, I should add(!)

The Argan oil from aldi for your hair is fantastic. I've had it for a few weeks now and my hair is shiny enough that I've had people ask what I've changed and at £3.49 its worth a try

I keep a large tub of thick Nivea cream on the armchair of the sofa (along with a nail file and lip balm). I often sit there while watching TV moisturising hands and feet, sometimes my face of I'm feeling dry, pushing back my cuticles. I would like to do my nails, including toenails, more. Doors anyone else keep staples by the TV?

They are from a local independent chemist but I have seen them everywhere like semi chem etc usually only 1.99

Paula, I've got a l'Anza moisture therapy moi moi one just now, it's pretty expensive but has lasted ages. I alternate between that, almond oil and a horse conditioner.

Thanks foolssilver will look it up online.
