Best exfoliator for ALL skin types

Advantages: Smooth and creamy texture, contains no particles,leaves skin smooth and refreshed
Disadvantages: Cost is slightly high

...When choosing an exfoliator for your face the first question you ask your self is "Will it suit my skin type?". Many face scrubs contain particles which are sharp and can scratch the skin. A facial scrub/exfoliator is supposed to lift the dead skin cells (that make your skin look lifeless and dull)not scratch or make your skin look red raw. Decleor's Phytopeel does just that. It contain no particles, it has plant extracts and aromatherapy. This is how it works: Apply a good coverage all over the face avoiding around the eyes Wait about a minute to allow to dry Support the skin and gently rub to remove the peel This rubbing action removes the peel and most importantly removes your dead skin cells. After using this peel your skin doesn't look blotchy and red raw. Your skin will look and feel refresh, it puts back...

The all type wipe

Advantages: great cleaning, cheap, easy
Disadvantages: smell, a little too sticky

...I?m not really much of a make-up girl unless I?m off out, so I?ve never really been into any make-up removers and things like that, in fact I never really bother to wash my face except in the shower. It just seems such a chore?cleanse, tone, moisturise?. never mind the fact that most products are on the pricey side, and to kit yourself out with everything you need costs a small fortune. So for the occasional times when I want a ?fresh? feeling face, I want something simple and quick?so when I came across Superdrug?s ?all in one cleansing wipes? I was tempted?and since they were only £1 in their ?wow for £1? promotion, I was sold. These wipes are perfect for me; they?re literally all you need ? no sink, no water, no cotton wool, just open, wipe and throw away. Brilliant. Best of all they boast to do all the things my mum told me I...

Soft, Dewy skin ALL day

Advantages: A lovely well absorbed day cream
Disadvantages: Pricey, but an essential for Clarins buffs!

...Clarins- Multi-Active Jour, Multi Active Day Cream. I bought this on special offer in Debenhams for £15 for 20ml tube. I thought I would treat myself to a different day cream than my usual Elemis one. My mum recommended the Clarins. The Packaging is fairly distinctive, a white tall box with red writing on. This is trade mark Clarins. The product labelling on the box ias predominantly in French, with translations in German and English. This particular cream has "protection plus" and is suitable for all skin types. There is a cream for dry skin too. I am a little wary of expensive skin products as I have used cheaper alternatives which are nice, but htis is definitely a cut above my other creams. On the box it claims be bio/hydro thermal/Tensio and Photo regulating. This is basically a regulating cream for the changes...

Honda Civic Type R - a great all rounder

Advantages: power, style, purchase cost,dealers
Disadvantages: road noise, front tyre wear, air con option

...My husband purchased our brand new Civic Type R in September 2002 so we have been running it now for over 18 months. In that time all the car has need has been 1 routine service (<£100) and recently 2 new front tyres (£230). I can honestly say after running this car for 18 months that I would not swap it for any other car if I had the choice again. It has the perfect balance of reliability, style, performance and practicality. As a rough guide the car will do 40mpg on a long journey and about 27mpg around town. I would say this is above average for a car capable of 150mph - not on public roads of course! The interior of the car is very classy with good supportive stylish seats with the Type R logo stitched into them. The rest of the interior is a muted grey with silver sections. The instrument panel is a cream background...

What Type-R You?

Advantages: Performance, Handling, Practicality, Price
Disadvantages: Insurance, Comfort

...Let's get this straight from the start. Some people see driving simply as a means of getting from A to B as comfortably as possible, others see driving as a means of getting from A to B with as much kit in the car as possible, yet more folks see driving as a chore to be tolerated and finally there's those to whom driving is a pleasure in itself. The Honda Civic Type-R is not a car for comfort. It is not a car for lugging huge loads (although it is actually rather spacious) and it's not someting you would want to drive with a heavy heart. Oh no. The Civic Type-R is an out-and-out drivers car, designed to tweak every last ounce of enjoyment from even the most mundane of runs down to the corner shop. The R is for Racing and the Civic Type-R is the latest in the distinguished Type-R line, following in the wake of the now legendary Integra...

A cream for all seasons

Advantages: Moisturises, nice texture
Disadvantages: Design of jar

...I have been using Clarins Multi Active Day Cream for the past 4 years & find that it is a great day cream for all year round. The cream comes in a white & red jar which is typical of the Clarins 'design'. The picture above shows the 'old style' jar which has now been replaced by one a slightly different shape. I use the one for 'all skin types', but it is also available for Dry Skin. A 30ml jar lasts me approx 4 months. The only thing wrong with the design of the jar is the fact that you have to stick your fingers in the jar to get the product out. If you have long nails the cream goes under them & you end up having to get the nail brush out! It would be better if it came in a 'pump action' design like their Engergising Morning Cream. It smells quite floral but not sickly & it is absorbed almost immediatley. You only need...

Clear glowing skin for all skin types

Advantages: Affordable, pleasant to use, smells wonderful, does what it says and more
Disadvantages: none

..., cleanse and polish does it all and its pretty affordable compared to some other brands i have used plus it smells amazing. it can be purchased in a tube (200ml) or the pump (100ml). i prefer the pump as it dispenses the perfect amount for each cleanse. for additional information my skin type is combination - oily t-zone and suffer minor hormonal breakouts, pale tone (Scottish weather is not renown for its sunshine lol). i wear makeup every day (foundation,powder, blush, lipgloss, mascara and eyeliner). and Liz Earle takes it all off in one step without any irritation , drying and no stinging around eyes. used with the cloth it provides daily gentle exfoliation and really believe that this product is what is responsible for keeping my skin clear. i highly recommend it. it is recommended for all skin types even sensitive but if you...

Type R? Type Rubbish!

Advantages: road handling
Disadvantages: after sales care, uncomfortable ride, noisy

...I regret ever setting eyes upon my Type R. I purchased a fully serviced 53-plate Honda Civic Type R from a Honda dealership in Grantham in November 2006. My reasons for choosing Honda was because I deemed them to be reliable and I went through a dealership specifically for warranty cover. After 4 months of owning the car, in March 2007 there was a tremendous clanging which could be heard over the radio. The car was recovered by AA the next day who took it to Honda to be looked at. The AA man discovered that the noise was down to a lack of oil in the car ? it had burnt 4.2 litres of oil in 3,000 miles which Honda stated is normal for a Type R! Honda wanted to strip the engine at my own personal cost to see if the car needed a new engine costing £8,000. Honda advised me that this would not be covered under warranty and I would have to bear...

Heard It On The Grapevine...........

Advantages: Gentle, refreshing cleanser. Free of parabens, animal products and other additives
Disadvantages: I can find no real disadvantage

...an anti-oxidant effect and therefore can help to fight skin ageing.) Those who have a problem with paraben allergy will be pleased to know that Caudalie removed parabens from all of their products in 2005. The products are also free from sodium laureth sulphate, artificial colourings and animal ingredients. The company operate what they term an ?eco-friendly? policy by using as much recycled paper as possible and strive to reduce CO2 emissions and to reduce waste. Now all of this may conjure up an image of a somewhat austere product but the makers state their belief that ?...it is possible to formulate ultra effective and Natural beauty products with refined, luxurious textures inspired by the vine.? By the way, the word ?caudalie? is a French term for the length of time the flavour of wine lingers in your mouth. The item I decided to try was...

2007 Type R FN2 - A Great Car

Advantages: Price, Performance, Interior, Exterior, Sound
Disadvantages: Known Faults, Petrol Consumption

...I drove past the Honda Garage in October whilst looking for a Ford Focus ST (to be honest I hadnt even thought about the CTR) and saw that they had a 57 reg milano red type r with 9000 miles for £14995. My budget was 12000 plus the part exchange value of my previous fiat (total of about £14000). I was sceptical about getting £1000 knocked off but thought it would be worth a shot. I took the car out for a test drive and was impressed at how easy the car was to drive about town. I was getting 29mpg which was very impressive (dont get that any more sadly!) I waited over a month, looking at other dealerships as the prices were starting to drop with the current economic climate. The Type R was still for sale so with a bit of playing off two dealerships against each other I managed to negotiate the cost down to 13900 if I put down...
