Batiste Dry Shampoo

Advantages: A fab product which leaves hair looking great
Disadvantages: None at all

...I was having a really bad hair day a couple of weeks ago, though it was my own fault as the night before I hadn't washed my hair out of laziness! I have the type of hair which does need washing on a daily basis or else it looks greasy, dull and lifeless the day after. My hair was that bad due to it not being washed that it made me feel really awful and self conscious. A work colleague recommended that I try Batiste Dry Shampoo for such occassions. I took her advice and purchased a bottle from Tescos on my next shopping trip. I paid £1.99 for a 150ml cannister, which I thought was quite good value for money. The cannister itself is a bright yellow colour with a jade green plastic lid. The cannister is re-cycleable and is found amongst the normal shampoos on the shelves. It supposedly had a Tropical scent to it, which was the theme...

  The Fruit Of The Dragon

Advantages: Healthy, Colourful, Different
Disadvantages: Bland, Watery, Not Cheap Cheap

...described else where as having a sorbet effect). I wasn't that keen on this feeling as I like to be able to taste my food and I find that a lot of the time chewing brings out the flavours, as it does in other fruits like strawberries, apples, bananas etc. A good thing about this fruit is that whilst it is very juicy on the taste buds, it seems to contain the water until you eat it. By that I mean that there was no excess juice on the plate when it was cut into slices. It didn't drip from the sides like a lot of fruits, but it also wasn't dry. *~*~*Taste*~*~* The taste of the Dragon Fruit is VERY bland. On my first mouthful I found it to be very tasteless and very watery (then what do you expect of a fruit which comes from a plant that harbours water?). However, on my second slice I found that it tasted sweet and sharp in different...

Batiste Dry Shampoo :)

Advantages: Great for those who dont have time to wash greasy hair!
Disadvantages: Leaves hair feeling a little rough to the touch.

...I love this stuff!!!! It is literally a godsend!!!!! I first came across it when I was in school, I found I didn't have time to have a shower everymornign before school and wash my hair as it took half an hour to drydue to its thickness, and I just didnt have time, so when I found this, it meant I could just have a body shower before shcool and throw this on my hair if it needed it. (My hair gets very greasy very quickly so washing it the night before, the next morning it wouldn't look fresh!!!). Batiste Dry Shampoo is £1.79 (approx) from Body Care, and other various shops (Boots/Superdrug). And its basically like "talcing your hair", not sure if anyone knows abiut that??? Putting talc on your hair if it was a little greasy and you had no time to wash it...! Lol. Well this is much the same only it smells nice haha! it comes in 3...

Batiste Dry Shampoo

Advantages: Makes hair appear cleaner
Disadvantages: Hard to spray on to the back of hair

...I've been looking for a dry shampoo like this for a while but thought they were all out of my price range, as I didn't want to spend a fortune on something that wasn't any good. That was until I saw a review on here, stating how good it was and also the price - £1.99. For this price, I thought you couldn't go wrong really, because if it ended up being rubbish, it hasn't exactly made me skint, so I thought... why not? I read some more reviews on it, and the majority of them had got 4 to 5 stars. So the next day I went in to boots, and searched the store for it. Once I had found it, it was priced at £2.09, so me, being the cheap skate that I am, went across to Superdrug and found it in there for £1.99. It's in a srapy can in a similar size to hairspray with a pull-off lid and comes in a 150ml size can, but I don't think you can buy...

Whitworths dried onions

Advantages: quick no smelly hands
Disadvantages: none

...Whitworths is well known for dried fruit and vegetables - more fruit though I think. It was 1886 when the business was first formed and it grew rapidly in the 1950's. Their suppliers now exist in over 80 countries around the world. Dried onions are a convenient and easy way to add flavour to any dish. I was made aware of dried onions as a child, my mum used them in dishes such as 'tatty ash' and cottage pie. I asked her why she used them instead of real onions as I remember my nana having onions and pickled onions in bowls of water (not sure why or if I remember correctly). Her reply was that she didn't like onions so that's why she added dried ones, hmmm aren't they still onions but she insisted that they weren't as strong tasting and dissolved in the food so you couldn't taste them (so why put them in?) As I grew up and got...

Review of Whitworths Dried Sliced Onions

Shoot the fruit.

Advantages: Handy sized bottle, looks good!!
Disadvantages: Not very tasty at all.

...I came across these orange and peach fruit shoots in my local shop, two packs of four bottles for £2.09, not bad hey!! They come in these flavours as far as I know ,Orange, Orange and peach and Blackcurrant and apple. The reason I was getting these is that my step daughter was off to kentwell hall and they said if it was hot to pack the children up with plenty of drink for the day so she took four drinks with her. Packaging The little Orange bottles came in a pack of four with a cardboard sleeve holding them together. The bottle has a clear lid on the top and a white stopper in the top with two holes in to drink out of once you have pulled it up. The actual lid that screws onto the bottle is blue. The label has Robinsons fruit shoot peach and orange written on the front in white with green edging, there are also slices...

Juicy fruits

Advantages: juices "whole fruit and veg", easy to clean, quick and quiet
Disadvantages: is perhaps a bit pricey

...JuiceMachine Pro ? Whole fruit Juicer by Moulinex -------------------------------------------------------------------- I like fruit juice very much so does my resident geek. I can?t drink a lot because of my diabetes and he frequently forgets about it consequently I must have thrown away orchards worth?s of half drunk cartons of Tropicana over the years. Neither of us like bought smoothies either. Bananas belong either in a banana split or in your hand not in a smoothie. For me they just spoil the whole taste. I stopped trying them quite some time back and got myself a decent juicer. This one takes the hard work out of juicing: not that it?s something to sweat over but I am essentially a fairly lazy creature and I?m also messy round the kitchen? I use all my tidiness up at work! This juicers going to cost you around £50 so I...

Best budget dry shampoo

Advantages: Good price
Disadvantages: As with any - spray too close and you get white hair

...I used this from a recommendation and have the normal one and the tropical scented one. I would recommend the normal one more so as the other one although it smells lovely smells quite strong and every time you move your head/hair you get a strong smell of coconuts - this might be ok for you but might clash with perfume! As with most dry shampoos if you use it too close to your head then you will end up with white roots but if you follow the instructions then you should be ok! I have used other more expensive ones and do not find much of a difference between those and this one. It came to me quite highly recommnded for the price and I would say exactly the same - if you want a budget one this does the trick and you may even find it works better than some more expensive ones....

Tesco Fruit and plenty of fibre

Advantages: A cereal that is full of fibre
Disadvantages: nothing major

...complete with milk takes pride of place. An arrangement of fruit sits attractively around the cereal and the milk jug is there in case you need more milk I assume! At the bottom of the box the nutritional values are clearly displayed. Inside the box the cereal sits patiently waiting in its plastic bag. The mass of golden wholewheat flakes are the first thing that you notice, they look toasted and crunchy and altogether very pleasant. Fraternising with the suntanned flakes are raisins, I cant say that they look plump, I would be fibbing, they look as raisins look...wizened! Dig a little deeper and you find chopped roast hazelnuts and almonds, perfect!. A few tiny flakes of dried apple float gently in and out of the cereal and some toasted coconut flakes are easily hunted down. Generally you leave the best until last, but in my...
