A question about : Cambridge Diet v Slim & Save

How much is the Cambridge diet done as a sole source diet?
Do the consultants offer discounts for buying a weeks supply? A months supply?
Are there ever any pack offers?
I'm comparing IT with slim & save which is about Ј130 for 4 weeks (with p&p factored in).
Is Cambridge way more?

A question about : MAC makeup sessions

Hi. Thinking of doing one of those makeover/ makeup consultation sessions at MAC. I've never really got a great knack with cosmetics and they seem to be the most popular brand.
So has anyone done one of these and can feed back? I'm in N.W London so would go to one of the stores in central London. Thanks

A question about : Haircut voucher not being honoured

Hi everyone,

A question about : Tips please for a restful night's sleep

Just lately I have been struggling to get a restful night's sleep. It is not insomnia as I get tired and drop off OK but when asleep I am plagued by stressful dreams. I can't always remember them clearly but for example the other night I seemed to spend dashing between railway platforms missing trains.

A question about : What the...? Blackheads on my lip-line??!

Need help! (OK this isn't life changing stuff, but I'd really welcome some advice here!)

I've been using Vaseline on my lips for the last fortnight because my lips got so cracked they were bleeding. I normally use a bees wax balm but had run out, Vaseline was on offer and now I have blocked pores or blackheads on my lip line!

Aside from not using the Vaseline anymore; does anyone have any tips on getting them off? (Aside from picking at them which I am struggling not to do right now :/ )

A question about : Black to blonde?

Soooo I'm a natural blonde but almost two years ago I dyed my hair bright red. Then dark brown, then black about 6 months ago. I had some highlights put in before Xmas and they came out a caramel colour.

I know it will be a long process but what is going to be the easiest way to go back to my roots, so it were? Hairdresser to strip it? Or do it myself?

thanks! x

A question about : Meh

Much to my overwhelming delight [/SARCASM], I've been informed that, as I'm not longer in remission from rheumatoid arthritis and it's essential that I start an ongoing course of methotrexate in significantly higher doses than the last time I had it.

Anyhow, it's a chemotherapy drug - far lower doses than in cancer treatment - and I expect a repeat of all the symptoms I had last time (puking up, exhaustion, susceptibility to infection..) and hair loss.

A question about : Serums: are they the key?

I've noticed after applying my makeup lately, particularly around the eyes and nose area, that my skin is looking noticeably dry. Not flakey, but dry.

I do wear moisturiser (argan oil all over the face; and a moisturiser on top of that, everywhere but the eye area, which is too sensitive for my normal facial moisturiser).

What can I do? Are serums the key - are they meant to give the extra 'oomph' that moisturisers can't achieve alone? If so, what does everybody here use?
