And fibrology makes my hair grim. First use - great. Second consecutive use - a weird combination of greasy build uppy and yet still oddly bouffanty.

it just takes off make up surely. Does it claim to do anything else? dust your skirtings?

I do love hot cloth cleansing though. I use a muslin though, not a flannel fan.

I need a shampoo ( not too $$$) to smooth down the hair at the roots, I am not using straighteners and i have a hint de frizz.
Oil/serum can make it go lank

Oh I love the Fibrology (at last, my hair isn't flat and limp).

I love the Aquiss hair drying towel.

I love the Muji nail clippers.

I'm Sali's bitch (except for the Sleek CC cream - muddy colours. The TopShop BB. Cream is much better).

All the talk of bioderma being the holy grail and it's the latest thing. FADDY shoite. And it makes my skin all tight and reactive, all that guff about being as gentle as water. Bolleaux

Frizz Ease is good, but my scalp can't cope with it. My hair likes it.

I don't like that one of her tips to look younger is to try fake eyelashes! I've always thought they had the opposite effect.

But I've bought some of her recommendations and they've become staples, and started hot cloth cleansing because of her columns. On the whole I like her advice very much.

La Roche Posay is gorgeous stuff though, and v affordable, especially as it's often a third off on websites and in Boots.

The hand cream is my HG.

Which NARS multiple do you have? South Beach is amazing!

Grin Troy. She was saying that they are the sharpest nail clippers. And they have a cover. True and true. I've found my clippers.

Oh and I rushed to Muji for the nail clippers. They didn't snigger as I paid for them, what polite staff they have.

Oh, I quite like Sali. I bought Benetint and the Clarins Lotus Oil on her recommendation and I really like them.

I have been experimenting of late with pricey shampoos (Kerastase) and have come to the conclusion that hair care is like skin care and just needs to be gentle and thorough, and it doesn't matter what products you use. Sort of. So anyway I've now got pink Herbal Essences every other day and it's going well - my hair is smooth but not siliconey. I've stopped shampooing twice and scrubbing at (massaging) my scalp and my hair has chilled out accordingly.

The fibrology shampoo is fantastic (and cheap). And I really like her column. .

I love Kerastase which has transformed my fine, frizzy hair from dry stalks to a thing of beauty.

However if you try hard enough you can figure out which L'Oreal shampoos are the cheap versions of the Kerastase - so L'Oreal Everriche is now doing exactly the same job for me as Kerastase Resistance at less than half the price Smile

I loved the video she's just done of her makeup kit bag.

It makes me want to stalk her, and break into her house and steal it.
