Agree that EA 8 Hr cream is very overrated. It's no better than cheapo vaseline and stinks. think that models might get paid commission for mentioning some of the more overrated expensive beauty products- they'd never sell otherwise would they?

I really like it

Erm. I love it in tinted lipstick format... 'tis nice!

I was given a Mason Pearson Hairbrush that cost about thirty quid- at first I thought why would anyone spend more than a few pounds on a brush? But in all honesty it was worth it- gets through my straggles first thing in a morning no problem.

EA 8hr- great round nose when streaming with cold and tissues are irritating the skin. Helps lessen my rudolph tendancies no end!

however my experience with home blonding kits has given me the opinion that no ammount of rave reviews in mags will make me want to try it ever again. Had a complete disaster with a big name brand- turned my usually milk chocolate colour hair a frightening orange tinged white. I wore a scarf round it, and stayed at home until I could get a professional reversal.
horrors!
