Sitting in the garden doing nothing?
You will need; any old body lotion knocking around, handful of sugar, jug of warm water and a towel.
From the comfort of your garden chair, slather body lotion onto your legs, add a handful of sugar and massage in . Go on the grass and rinse off with the jug of water. Keep away from your sitting area, cos the ants will be having a party on the sugar!
Just done legs and hands. Wish I had a slave here to do my feet! If you have a small child handy, maybe he/she could be bribed with the promise of an ice lolly later. If you have a man handy, maybe he could be bribed with the promise of something else later!!!!

Yeah, you can use anything like sugar, for instance, table salt (and a lot cheaper than sugar) and you won't get attack by the ants!
you can differ the OP recipe as you can use oils instead of lotion or whatever you got in, I might try the lotion & sugar tomorrow!0 -
sounds good, think i'll give this a try on my afternoon off tomorrow before i try out my new half price (boots) self tan :j0

Noticed this a while ago, never tried anything like it before but read a couple of glowing reviews! Can you tell me more, please?0 -
dont know what to say really! its really tiny beads that you rub on your face, way smaller than usual ones in facewashes etc, and its weirdly painful on your finger tips! its amazing though, after the first use i could feel the difference, your face is sooo much smoother. then my partner started using it, he also thought it was amazing. and 3 days later the bottle was empty. so keep it away from the men- they use too much!
you only need to use a tiny bit, and it lasts a fair amount of time.
would deffinately reccomend it though!!0 -
ExBF was a diesel fitter - he said the Loreal stuff was essentially valve grinding paste. It's surprisingly harsh if you're not extremely careful - I think the current sunshine will pretty much halt any attempts to use this at the mo as you would potentially become very very very sun sensitive,I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll
