Beauty TIPS you have read over and over but never follow

[cyb]

Plunge wet nail varnish in ice water to make it harder

make your own face packs with mashed up avaocade and egg white

push back your cuticles after a warm bath

surely its bananas and yogurt to make your own face pack with?

cyb that never worked for me, just dried the outer layer to touch, but it would smudge despite feeling dry.

I never remember to take makeup off before bed

oh yes cuticles.

and salt body scrubs

and vaseline on eyelashes

a layer of vaseline while you sleep will smooth the roughest skin

no it doesn't it just makes your bed all slimy.

ah yes i've tried that with ankle socks on overnight actually.

Twas horrible. The sliminess woke me up.

And the semi permanant sock marks just weren't worth it

it is rank, rather like paddling through seaweed.

adding a cup of powdered milk to your bath makes also for smooth skin. apparently

arf

did you read jackie Magazine by any chance?

I bought clear mascara on the strength of one beauty colomnist's review

Whats that all about?

cleanse tone and moisturise

8 glasses of water a day

clean make up off every night

condition your hair with raw egg to make it shiny, my organic eggs are not going on my barnet

and rinse with beer

Cleanse + tone + moisturise.

I bought toner once. Waste of time.

oh these are straight from just seventeen. no no no for shiny barnets, esp brunettes you rinse with VINEGAR, sillies...

doing a false lip line to make your lips look fuller and youthful, esp if you use a dark shade and fill it in with a lighter colour ohh and extra dab of lip gloss on the bottom lip

and pput oliver oil on your split ends

and rag roll your hair at bedtime
I tried that once! Looked like Medusa when I woke up

anyone ever stuck their elbows in half a lemon?

Taking make up off. Never do. That'swhat pillowcase are for (I am not as disgusting as I sound as I change the pillowcases).

Take a paracetamol half an hour before plucking your eyebrows. Like that would bloody help.

oh I ALWAYS take make up off

Joan Collins told me too

another cuticle one - rub almond oil into them.

i am really too busy to be massaging cuticles, thank you any way...

theres' one about only sleeping on your back so that your face doesn't get scrunched and wrinkly and doing facial exercises to prevent saggy facial skin

Sunscreen on your face everyday.
Am going to be a wrinkled hag by the time I'm 40

Doing that thing with a pencil to find out where your eyebrows should start and finish - I'm never sure which bit of your eye you're supposed to line the ends of the pencil up with

oh yes! my eyebrows fall WAY short of that imaginary line.

how are you jackie?

oh yes - sleep on a silk pillow case to avoid wrinkles

Massaging cream in with 'upward' movements

samson i do that back sleep thing!
