extreme makeover

Advantages: happy endings to stories
Disadvantages: hyper hosts

...Extreme makeover does exactly what it says on the tin so to speek, it is a show that completely rebuilds a new house. The show is made in America and is aired on sky tv on uk style channel 246 and 247 and is on at various times most days. The programme starts off by showing you the families homes before the makeover and the conditions they put up with and live in, some are really bad. The host Ty and his crew then show you what the plans for the new home. Then they call in the bulldozers and completely demolish the house, I love this part of the show it just get stuck in and ripped to pieces. You are then shown the start of the new building, which doesnt take them long at all, not like it would be in England it would take us months to build!! It is now time for the big reveal, the families are taken round their brand new...

Makeover 2000

Advantages: feel and look good
Disadvantages: very expensive

...Makeover 2000. Do you want to look and feel good?. Would you like to look Elegant, Romantic, Glamorous, Sexy and do you want the photo?s to prove it. Makeover 2000 are specialists in making you look good male or female. I won a Free consultation for me and a friend(I think everybody who participated in the competition won this). This usually cost £75.00, I don?t think I would have done this as I think that?s a bit expensive. But it was free so off I went,. With newly washed hair and a cleansed and moisturized face, off I went. Firstly they take you into the make up booths and you give the beautician some details. Name, Age, Allergies, What colours you usually wear, What you would like, Glamorous, elegant, sexy..(I picked all 3 lol) Well they said they could work miracles.. Then you remove your top and they...

Bratz makeover

Advantages: It's Bratz
Disadvantages: It's Bratz

...Bratz funky fashion makeover With Christmas over and Santa Claus having visited our house we have acquired a few of the Bratz dolls, this being one of them. It's advertised as being "Hollywood looks for your Bratz and you" so I assume that the make up can be used on the small person although I don't encourage this and haven't suggested it to Little Miss. PRODUCT AND PACKAGING. This being a Bratz doll, it's a total nightmare to actually get to the doll- large box with very thick card and plastic and then once this is off there are the obligatory ties to untie. Once inside, and untied, we can get the doll out. This isn't the usual head but is instead the full doll who is sitting down with knees bent, and although she is plastic, the design is such that she looks like she is wearing some black trousers and gold top. This...

Makeover & Photo session in Manchester

Advantages: Straightforward / you know how much it costs upfront
Disadvantages: can take 5 hours - though i guess that could be a plus

...This was a treat for my partner as I knew she had wanted to do this for sometime. Basically I purchased a package online from www.makeover4u.com, online cost £39.99 where it saves about 80% on the normal cost if you were to buy direct. The studio 'en vogue studios' is based in manchester city centre just near afflecks palace. The package included various beauty treatments, facial, paraffin wax treatments, hand massage and a manicure. This lasted well over an hour and then she had the makeover session. ie make up application - this wasnt plastered on it was quite subtle as she has fair skin anyway. She also had her hair styled - pinned up in varying styles. Then there was the photoshoot (I even joined in for a few - it was made really fun by the photographer who makes it all very relexed). He took about 30 shots...

60 Minute Makeover - the 10 minute review!

Advantages: Learn good design tips, entertaining to watch
Disadvantages: Fast-paced, might make YOU feel slightly panicky!

...60 Minute Makeover IS similar to all the other standard design programs out there, but with an exciting twist - as suggested in the title, they only have 60 minutes to makeover a few rooms to give them a fresh look. It's an exciting, fun to watch programme, and I never thought a regular old design program could have me on the edge of my seat, but at times it does, as you wait to see if they can accomplish their tasks. Though it might leave you feeling slightly stressed and panicky yourself - I know it has for me! The main target in their 'uplift' of the rooms is to make the rooms look modern, and they really do come up with some great, inspirational ideas to do that. There's the odd dodgy thing here and there, and some of the things they do could go out of fashion very quickly, but I personally have learned some wonderful colour...

Review of ITV - 60 Minute Makeover

More Makeovers than Madonna!

Advantages: Professional site with well paid online survey work. Payment by BACS. Payment for pre-screeners.
Disadvantages: You have to remember to log into your account fairly frequently or you may miss surveys available.

...as they?re too boring and repetitive) then your ?Profile Dashboard? will come up as 100% complete. Well done - you?ve wasted an hour of your day?for no reason whatsoever! I?ll let you into a secret here. As I said earlier, this site has had more changes, makeovers and general reincarnations than Madonna. At one stage in the last couple of years, members were redirected to a newish looking site, and asked to complete a new series of questions about themselves, probably sold as a way to ?maximise our earning potential? or in Pureprofile speak ?unlock a brand new world of participation and payment?. The thing was, I?d already completed a similar profile and wasted half my life doing so, when I?d first joined back in 2003. I was blowed if I was going to go through the whole process again?.so I left my Profile Dashboard at about a 20...

...Member Advice on Makeover & Photo Shoot Last year I won a FREE makeover and photo shoot for me and a friend in London, I decided to use it for my birthday and invited my sister to join me.

Thats it just a touch to the left - ooooh lovely!

Advantages: Get some lovely pictures of you looking gorgeous
Disadvantages: You need to be strong against the hard sell tactics!

...I love entering competitions - I always have and I am pretty lucky in them. However, there are some companies that can use competitions as a way to 'trick' you into buying certain products or services and I know because I was caught out when I was 18. One day I had a phone call, a very cheery lady told me I had won a makeover in a competition from a card I had returned to them. Ooh lovely I think??she explains I haven't won the first prize which was a makeover and full portfolio of pictures but I have won a runners up prize?..a free makeover. Right ok well I suppose it's still a free makeover and I've always wanted to look like a glamorous film star so we arrange a date that the big event will take place. At this point I was still living with my parents in Hastings and the makeover was taking place in London, just off Oxford...

An Avon Solution

Advantages: Moisturizes, Firms
Disadvantages: No effect on stretch marks, Pricey

...It?s an undeniable fact that pregnancy causes certain changes to a woman?s body, a woman with no baby bump is either very lucky or carrying a teeny tiny baby. I wasn?t one of the lucky few and was huge during my 2nd pregnancy (despite actually gaining little weight, there was a lot of water!) the strain on my skin caused me to develop some stretch marks and naturally, of course, post delivery there was some loose skin. I wasn?t happy with my appearance at the time, I knew the skin would improve eventually but wanted to try and help the process along a bit, alongside all the recommended exercises I decided to use Maximum Body Makeover cream, hopefully it would give my skin and my confidence the boost it needed. Avon Maximum Body makeover is designed to improve the look of stretch marks and cellulite whilst reshaping, firming...
