What 'beauty' things do you do that would be mortifying if someone was watching?

I pluck the grey hairs from my head with tweezers and stick them on my mirror by the roots.

Then I gather them all up in a bunch and fling them out of my loft window, hoping the birds will add them to their nests.

And you?

Oh we spoil thosebrds don't we? Does Bill Oddie ever mention us? Does he heck.

And ditto for me Mutt That is indeed a solitary pleasure. Do you line the hairs up as you remove them?

I quite enjoy it if I manage to finally extract an ingrowing hair (bikini line) or a very stubborn eyebrow hair.

I'm afraid I just bin the hairs though.

Those short ones are no good for nests...I wouldn't worry.

I keep my plucking private too. Sometimes, if DH is wandering in and out of the room, I pretend I am plucking my eyebrows when I am infact trying to keep my moustache under control.

I really would not like anyone to see me flossing my teeth.

I pluck the stragglers from around my bikini line.

I bleach my arse-hole (ok, that one is a joke)

Well I wouldn't like to be watched while tending my ladygarden, but do you mean unusual things that I think other people don't do?

Cutting my nose hair. DH had one of the razors with a trimmer at the end. I used to sit in the bath with it stuck up my nostril.
