Frownies - stop those frown lines

Advantages: Does lessen deep creases
Disadvantages: can't use on all creases

...of stiff paper/card with sticky gum on the back. You wet the gummy side and press it over your wrinkles. I use mine between my eyes at the top of my nose where I had a deep crease. You could use more across your forehead and there are different shaped ones for the 'laughter' lines either side of your mouth. Anyway they take a bit of getting used to. You obviously only wear them at night as they are not attractive. You must leave them on for at least 3 hours so I guess you could wear them as you do you house work at times when you are not expecting anyone to call. They are a little strange at first but once you have it fixed on you do forget you have it one. Sometimes I have gone to scratch and nearly knocked/pulled it off but usually I sleep all night and wake up less creased on my nose. Apparently they retrain your muscles so that they...

Review of Frownies Forehead & Eyes

Tom Hanks and his amazing forehead

Advantages: Solid three hour's worth...
Disadvantages: Not exactly ground-breaking, is it?

...Why can't Tom Hanks play a killer once in a while? Henry Fonda did it in Once Upon A Time in the West, to brilliant effect. I'm sick of looking at Tom Hanks' smiley head, with his massive cliff face forehead, with that mad-looking hair perched on top. The James Stewart of the Nineties is essentially the same character in every movie - so we've had Mr. Smith Goes to the Moon, Mr. Smith Gets AIDS, Mr. Smith is Sleepless in Seattle, and Mr. Smith Goes to War. Now, in Darabont's OTHER prison based epic, its Mr. Smith Cooks Some Crooks (But in a good natured way) The story concerns John Coffey, a simpleton miracle-worker who is condemned to death after apparently murdering two little girls. His presence on Nice Guy Hanks' death row causes some weird things to happen - he uses his magic powers to cure Emsworth's urinary infection...

Review of The Green Mile (DVD)

Do you want a crazy coloured forehead

Advantages: There aren't any
Disadvantages: It dyes your face!

...When I found Crazy Colour in a branch of Sally I got excited. I love dying my hair weird and wonderful colours, and this was just what I needed! I've used B-Funky colour before, but got tired of its limited range. Crazy color sat on the shelf before me with over 20 shades, and I had to buy! I bleached my shoulder length hair so it was light enough to take the semi-permanent colour, then applied Crazy colour to my new light hair. After 30 minutes, and after following the instructions EXACTLY, I emerged from the shower with washed out looking pink streaky hair, and a bright pink face, hands neck, you name it. The colour had taken to everywhere EXCEPT my hair! When Id used BFunky before I used to get a little on my forehead and was able to clean that off, but this was a nightmare! I'd never touch Crazy Colour ever again!...

Review of Britannia - Mail order

No one should go without Radiant Touch!

Advantages: Lightens and evens out skin tone, glamorous packaging
Disadvantages: Expensive, can become smelly

...I find this a really great product. However, if you have spots you might want to use an additional cover stick. I have got some spots which it doesn't really cover but it works really well as a concealer of uneven skintone, dark circles under you eyes and general small blemishes. I even use it around my nose and my mouth to even out my skin tone and highlights shadows to make them appear reduced. I don't use foundation anymore as I find that this product replaces it perfectly in areas such as the t-zone (nose, chin and forehead). Minus is the price (although you can buy it relatively cheap online) and the fact that after using it for a long time it might get a bit smelly. But this is still is such a great product (and the packaging is not bad either) and I'm definately an addict!...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

Oooh; Shiny; but then it fades

Advantages: Wide range of colours to choose from; adds shine; easy to apply
Disadvantages: Strong smell; can get messy; semi

...so you can see if you are doing it. You are warned of possible allergic reactions. "Easily applied"; You are provided with gloves so you don't get it on the skin; the gloves are not too small nor to big; which is good as it is less likely to get in. You have to mix to things together (one of which smells bad; and strong) but all you have to do is pour one into the other so no mess is made. You just need to wet your hair and then distribute the dye evenly; which is made easy with the comb like dispenser. It can be hard to keep it off of your skin though; so once it had dryed i ended up with splotches of dye on my ears; forehead etc; but comes off in about 2 days. You dont have to spend ages waiting for the dye to do what it does; and then you wash it out and add the shine conditioner which smells nice. "Fades"; This is NOT a permanent...

Review of L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss

Simple and effective hair dye - Definitely reccommended

Advantages: Easy to apply, clear instructions, sleek/shiny/accurate hair colour, cost-effective
Disadvantages: Skin test rubs off really easily, so could be inaccurate results.

...slathered over my hair and massaged more before going to wait the reccommended 25 minutes. 25 minutes over. I pull the gloves gingerly back on, and start to wash it out my hair. I thought I might have stained the showerhead/bath permanently at first, but it washes off with ease. After ensuring all of the dye was out of my head, I applied the nutrishine conditioner, which had a pleasant - but quite strong - smell to it. Then washed this out also. Then, I gathered all that came with it into the box, and dumped it in the wheelie bin! I'm quite proud to say it was the first time I've dyed my hair. Although while applying it I got some on my neck, the most of it washed off, and I managed not to get any on my forehead or ears. It also hasn't stained any surfaces (except my towl and t-shirt of course!) So I reccommend you wear old clothes that you...

Review of L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss

A match made in heaven

Advantages: Gives a flawless finish
Disadvantages: Difficult to blend

...I have an olive-skinned complexion. Ooh exotic, you might think. Maybe, but it's a pain in the behind trying to get make-up that matches your skin tone when most foundations either make your skin look ashy, dirty or, ah-hem, orange. That's problem number 1. Problem number 2, which I think affects most women but is particularly a nuisance when your skin is any shade darker than Ivory, is uneven skin tone. Most people have a slightly darker forehead, nose and chin to their cheeks, partly because of having more oil glands here and partly because the forehead and nose is where the sun hits your face the most. So you might find a foundation that matches you cheeks but makes your forehead look ashy. Or matches your chin and makes your cheeks look dirty. Those wonderful people at Max Factor seemed to have finally realised this...

Review of Max Factor Colour adapt Foundation

Advanced Night Repair

Advantages: great for all types of skin
Disadvantages: none at all

...I had been recommended to try this product by a work colleague who had raved over it and I must say her 40 something skin did look great but I was put off by the price then whilst browsing in a department store one day I was offered a sample by the sales girl. Well I felt the difference after only a few days ! My " mature menopausal skin " felt wonderful. Gone was that dry feeling across my cheeks and forehead and I think there is a noticable difference in the lines around my mouth and eyes. I hinted for my next birthday and was given it as a gift. It lasts for absolutely ages as you only need the tiniest of amounts so the price over a period of use is not really costly. I love it and I think it's well worth the money....
