a cuppa cha for everyday

Advantages: Its just a nice drinkable breakfast tea!
Disadvantages: Its pretty much the same as normal tea!

... TWININGS EVERYDAY TEA BAGS Twininges Everyday Tea is available in all good supermarkets, and varies in price- I got a 80 bag box for £1 from Asda a couple of weeks ago, which I thought was quite cheap really, so I thought I'd try it, I normally just go for the Asda Branded Tea (the one in the blue box??!) but as this was the same price, I thought I'd give it a go. I'd seen all the adverts and I like tea so I thought it would be a good buy. Now, I am one of those people who thinks that branded names are pretty much exactly the same as hoem brands, and to be honest, I must say with this its the same!!! I would never trust SmartPrice/Tesco Value tea or coffee, but the own branded is really nice, and when I bought this, I thought it would be a case of it would taste stronger, wouldn't need to be in the water as long, etc. But to...

Review of Twinings Everyday Tea Bags

Twinings Everyday Qualitea

Advantages: Good quality, reputable brand, refreshing
Disadvantages: None for me

...Tea has been around since about 2000 years BC. For the last two hundred years or so it has been a popular drink and seems set to stay so. However the way we drink our tea has changed over the years. Twinings have been an established brand of Tea for many years. Until recently they seemed to only manufacture herbal and specialist teas but these days they sell an everyday product, which is becoming much more popular. This is sold as tea bags with either 40, 80 or 160 bags in a box. The packaging is light and fresh, in a summery yellow. The cup of tea on the box looks delicious but will your brew be as good?Well I have to say that, yes, it probably will. Twinings everyday tea provides a full flavoured tea that is never heavy or stewed in flavour. For me it has the right colour and flavour, especially if I am in dire need...

Everyday concealer

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...****Everyday Minerals Concealer**** As i have said previously i love this brand. All the products i have received from them have been really good and i would recommend them. Mineral make up seems to be the in product at the minute as it is seen as being a lot better for you. **Any good ?** Amazing!!! This concealer works really well on dark circles and i cant believe i ever went without it. I picked a shade lighter than my foundation because that is what you are supposed to do with it. This one does not work well on freckles which is a little annoying, Everyday Minerals offer different concealers for different things which is good in a way but i wish they offered a more general one instead of needing to buy one for each problem. Saying that though they really do what they say they will so perhaps its good that they just cover up one...

Review of Everyday Minerals Concealer

My everyday blusher

Advantages: great product,
Disadvantages: none

...****Everyday Minerals Blush**** I first came across this make up brand a few months ago and ever since i have been hooked!!! As the name suggests the products are all mineral. To purchase go to www.everdayminerals.com th When you first go on the site i found the selection a little overwhelming. There are four different styles to choose from -matte,shimmer,sheen and lucent. Under each of these styles there are quite a few different shades to choose from. I love the selection and i think they have enough shades to suit every occasion and persons skin tone. I always get the smaller sample size so it can be a bit hard to get a full sizes blusher brush in but i have overcome this problem by using a travel size one i got from the body shop. I like how they all have names instead of being called blusher 1 etc as it feels like more thought...

Everyday Everytime for Everyone

Advantages: A straightforward, great-tasting black tea
Disadvantages: Like most black teas, contains caffeine and can be addictive

...Twinings took a massive risk calling this tea Everyday. If it wasn't for the clever packaging and the advertising campaign, this tea could easily be regarded as a 'value' product based on just the name. By value, I mean cheap and nasty, which this tea certainly isn't. Instead, Everyday refers to the fact that this tea is a no-frills, no-fuss, straightforward black tea, so good that you will want to drink it every day. Previously, I've known Twinings for their speciality teas: English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Darjeeling, Ceylon and other similar 'posh' teas. By launching Everyday it seems they're trying to break into the standard black tea market traditionally dominated by brand names like PG, Typhoo and Tetley. The Price ------------- Twinings Everyday tea bags come in box sizes of 40, 80 or 160. A quick comparison of current...

Everyday make up

Advantages: cheap.great selection,long lasting
Disadvantages: none

Review of Everyday Minerals Foundation

Everyday Sunshine - Oh, yes please!

Advantages: silky moisturiser that also gives you a hint of a tan - can it get any better?
Disadvantages: Tanned face - white body?

...As the sun came out last week I was feeling a little pasty. Even though I have recently been on holiday, I do not really tan. I am one of those people who is light blue when pale, and bright white with freckles when "tanned". Anyway, I decided to pop into my local Boots to see if I could find any nice make up to make me feel a little more summery. As I browsed I had a look at my usual Olay section to see if they had anything new. This is when I found the Olay Complete Care Everyday Sunshine. Everyday Sunshine is a moisturiser that has a touch of sunless tanner and which comes in 2 shades - one for the lighter skin which may achieve a tone up to 2 shades darker and one for darker skin tones which can achieve a skin tone up to 3 times darker. The tube for the lighter skin promised a light sun-kissed glow for the paler skin - perfect! I...

The Origin of Everyday Things by Johnny Acton

Advantages: Very hard to put down
Disadvantages: Very hard to put down!

...The Origin of Everday Things does exactly what it says on the cover, details the origins of many everyday items and things that you and I probably take very much for granted. Researched written and edited by the team of Johnny Acton, Tania Adams and Matt Packer, the book details well in excess of 400 everyday items, and gives some pretty comprehensive anecdotes and tales about them all. The book is filled to the brim with some highly entertaining and fascinating facts and details. For example did you know that the first aerosol dispenser can was invented in 1899 by German scientists Helbling and Pertsch? Or that the Babylonians devised a prototype and extremely clever form of air conditioning? That the first car vehicle safety airbag was developed in the early 1950s by American naval engineer, John W. Hetrick? Or how...

Review of Origin of Everyday Things - Johnny Acton

Olay Complete Everyday Sunshine for face, Perfect!

Advantages: Nice even glow, with spf15 and can wear make-up on top!
Disadvantages: Orange fingernails.

...My mum actually picked this out for me. I have very pale skin with freckles and never tan. I tend to burn which can sometimes if i'm lucky go brown, but rarely stays and in general I mostly just develop more freckles, therefore, my mum saw this and thought it would be good for me. It's a moisturiser that gradually builds up a subtle tan over time. I've used it for about a month now and am very happy with the results. I have a nice even glow on my skin. However, I don't like to use it more than once a day to avoid becoming too tanned and orange. Once a day seems suffice to gain an even tan. It's especially great in that it has an spf of 15, because I am able to apply it everyday it means that when there is an unexpected spout of sunshine I am already protected from the sun and do not have to worry. The texture is quite light...

Everyday tanger(sh)ine

Advantages: Wasn't expensive, started working quickly
Disadvantages: Cheap smell,greasy texture, reddened my skin whilst simultaneously turning it a spectacular shade of nuclear orange

...tall and leggy with sleek brown hair . . . looking like a short male with a mop of ginger curls is possibly the last thing you'd want. My advice based on my highly traumatic experience with Olay Everyday Sunshine would be to avoid using it at all costs. In fact, I'd probably go so far as to suggest that you rinse your eyes if ever you clap eyes on the packaging in the shops, but having seen the glowing testiments around the internet, I've narrowed things down to two conclusions. 1) Either I am just cursed, and perfectly decent products somehow managed to go tits up when used on me, or 2) All the positive reviews of this product are written by Olay representatives. What makes my experience even more unnerving is that this was the 'LIGHT' shade of the product I used. Bollock knows what would have happened had I selected the 'deep' shade, I...
