I am a Sensation or at least my hair colour is.

Advantages: Very cheap, good grey coverage and colour, easy to use.
Disadvantages: No conditioner

...Mellor and Russell Sensation Permanent Hair colour cream WHERE , WHY and WHAT : The product is called Mellor and Russell Sensation Permanent Hair colour cream and the shade I bought is light Ash Blonde 3 ( 3 being Permanent , 2 last 12 to 24 shampoos and 1 lasts 6 to 12 shampoos) I bought this hair colour from Tesco a while back for the huge price of 97p which I thought was just too good to walk passed. It looks like any other hair dye box in green and yellow colours with a picture of a lemon in the bottom right hand corner. I think the lemon is meant to make you think that the product is natural but I?m not that naive. It does say it contains natural vitamin C though I was not aware that hair needed extra vitamin C so that is a bit of a mystery too. Anyway this box has been in my bathroom cupboard for a few months now and my hair...

Review of Mellor & Russell Permanent Hair Colour Cream

Clarins Soft Cream Eye Colour contains vitamins C and E

Advantages: Contains vitamins, nice finish
Disadvantages: Not easy to blend

...This is like a little artists oil paint tube which I think is really cute, it brightens up my make up bag. The tiniest tiniest bit of this product goes a long way and it took me a couple of messy times to figure this out, be warned sqeeze the tube verrrry gently! I bought this 7 months ago and after daily use it seems to have a good year left in it! The cream contains vitamins C and E to protect and condition your skin. The cream is thick but buttery, it glides on but quickly dries so you dont have much time to blend with it, the finish is shimmery and light reflective so it really opens up your eyes. Overall Im not too keen on this because of the way it dries up, sometimes i feel as though it has dried my skin as well, it can also feel abrasive when applying against my sensitive skin. The cream also goes cakey if you try to mess around...

Eight Hour Miracle Cream!

Advantages: Heals and Soothes skin.
Disadvantages: Price, can take a while to absorb.

...Before I bought Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream I had read about it in magazines with lots of Celebrities citing it as one of there "Must have" beauty products. As ever my inquisitive nature took over and I decided to invest in a tube to find out what I have been missing. So of I went to my local Debenhams and asked the Beauty Advisor for a tube of this recommended cream. The Cream cost me £18 for a 50ml tube. I know this is also available at other department stores so it may be possible to buy this cheaper. The eight hour cream comes in an off white box with the Elizabeth Arden logo on the front. The actual tube is white in colour with black writing across the front and a screw top lid. Eight Hour Cream was developed by Elizabeth Arden over 70 years ago. Its intended use is to sooth minor skin irritations and calm chapping...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

All in one miracle cream!

Advantages: many products in 1, saves money, rubs in easily
Disadvantages: expensive on the high street

...MIRACLE CREAM I started using the Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream because of all the fantastic reviews it had, and I must say it fulfilled all of the expectations I had plus more. It truly is a miracle cream and is affordable. Being the well known brand of Elizabeth Arden you can find it in most department stores and high street stores such as Boots however I would recommend buying it online as you will find it?s a lot cheaper. On the CheapSmells website you can buy a 50ml tube for £11.90, I have seen it not online for prices in excess of £20 so you are definitely better off buying online. You can get the 8 hour face cream in sizes 30ml and 50ml. You can also get the miracle hand cream in 75ml. The cream itself is mainly used as a skin protectant and can help with problems such as dry, flaky skin. But the miracle with this cream is that...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

Is it a cream, is it a mousse? No it's skin protectant...

Advantages: Soothes very dry skin
Disadvantages: Can be greasy

...I have to say that I wrote this review just because this product kind of took me by surprise. This was given to me (a trial size) by a friend and I stupidly made the assumption it was a moisturiser. When I looked at the tube it said 'skin protectant' and no more. On further inspection on the back I realised that with a trial size, added to the fact that my friend didn't give me the box, confused me further. I unscrewed the cap from the white tube and squeezed. Not a lot happened so I squeezed again. Slowly a bronzed coloured substance came out that to be honest looked more like lip balm than cream. I then jumped on the internet and found that this product is meant to soothe, restore, calm and help relieve chapped, cracked or dry skin. Soothes roughness, redness and minor skin irritations. I realised that with one of the ingredients...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

8 Hour Cream - Unisex ... Really?????

Advantages: It accentuates facial features you know!
Disadvantages: Cost and maybe the smell.

...Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream - 50ml - circa £25 - typically from department stores such as Debenhams and the likes. I bought mine from duty free at East Midlands Airport, costing me £16.49 and the young lady providing me assistance wrongly assumed it was for my girlfriend!! Brownie points were quite evidently beamed in my direction as the young lady serving me thought ? "what a nice young gentleman, thinking of his girlfriend and buying her a present on the outbound journey". Actually, she was probably thinking about knocking off and getting down the pub with her mates, but that's inconsequential. Yes it's make-up, yes I am male, yes I use it, and yes I am heterosexual. I will probably get no end of abuse for this review, especially if any of my male friends saw it ... barring 2 male friends who know I use it and have already...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

Dry Skin/Dry Lips - Sort them 18hr miracle cream!

Advantages: Is a multi functional product can be used for various things
Disadvantages: Smell may be off putting for some people

...the colour, it?s a kind of orangey colour which looks more like a thick gel than a cream and has a very distinctive smell. I don?t quite know how you could describe the smell other than quite medicinal, personally I find the smell quite refreshing but I can see how some people may be put off by it so I would strongly suggest you try a small amount of this at an Elizabeth Arden counter before you buy it as it may not be to your taste. The gel feels smooth to the touch and let me tell you a little goes a long way so you only need the tiniest amount. Due to the consistency of the product if you do apply too much it can make skin feel a little bit greasy so always use less than you think and add more on if need be. So I hear you cry what can I use this for? Here are some of the ways this can help you?.. * Used on lips this can help ease dry...

Review of Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream

8hr cream that really sinks in

Advantages: easily absorbed, noticed a difference straight away moisturizing for 8 hrs
Disadvantages: bit pricey depending on where you buy from

...Elizabeth Arden eight hour cream ?intensive body moisturizing treatment. Smooth over body daily? What does it do? The claims of this body cream are to leave the skin soft and luxurious for 8 hours long. They say that it absorbs quickly and deeply giving a very intense moisture saturation. Especially good for and reverses the appearance of dry flaky skin. This cream has won THE BEAUTY INSIDERS AWARDS verdict The 1.7 oz tube that I have is not really that big, and for the amount I used on my dry legs and arms its not going to last that long. On opening the tube I found that the cream is actually very thick, nice though and soothing when rubbing it into my skin. It had a pleasant scent to it but I couldn?t quite put my finger on what it was, maybe citrus lemon. The cream sunk into my skin immediately, and because I...

The cream of the creams

Advantages: Mellow, rich and unique in a stylish distinct bottle
Disadvantages: Perhaps more pricey than some sherries

...?s centers for the manufacture of fine colored glass by the 1720s. The term "Bristol Blue" arose from the fact that Bristol was the point of supply for the coloring agent, Saxon cobalt oxide (smalt), which produced the wonderful, deep blue. This oxide was not easily available in Britain until the 1760s, when a Bristol porcelain manufacturer, William Cookworthy, purchased the entire stock from the Royal Saxon Smalt Works and made it available to glassmakers throughout the country. Harveys Bristol Cream is about 8 years old at the time of bottling. It is an amber-coloured sherry with smoky orange rind and caramel aromas. It is flavoured with vanilla beans, toasted caramel and toffee. The overall effect is one of mellowness and richness. Traditionally Harveys Bristol Cream is served well chilled as an aperitif or as an after-dinner drink...

Review of Harvey's Bristol Cream Sherry

ANYONE FOR CREAM

Advantages: effective,cheap
Disadvantages: n/a

...Aqueous cream is one of many emollients available on the market. Emollients hydrate, soothe and soften the skin and can be used for all dry skin and scaling skin problems. The effect is somewhat short-lived though and one needs to re-apply as necessary to maintain that effect. The main ingredients are emulsifying ointment and phenoxyethanol base added to freshly boiled and cooled purified water. Having come across aqueous cream in my line of work countless times beforehand i finally ended up using it some four years ago on a daily basis. I have a big scar from an op on my stomach to which i was advised to originally apply another different preparation (E45 CREAM) to counteract the skin stretching and excessively drying and, i actually apply the stuff at least 3-4 times a day including on my hands which seem to have caught...
