    Okay that's now on my Tesco vouchers want list! I never knew it was even there. Because I'm so dark I have to get my eyebrows waxed every 2-3 weeks, and I shave every other day and I'd love not to think of any of it anymore. Eyebrows alone seems very reasonable, I spend that in about 16 months on waxing, but to do everything I'd want doing would be about £750 in Tesco vouchers.... probably even beyond my grasp?! Actually, I've probably made almost that many so far this year by the time the August statement arrives ... hmmm, next years challenge?! Does it remove hair completely or just significantly thin it out?

    If you don't mind doing it yourself I've heard great things about this, I've wanted it most of the year and it's the top of my Christmas list. I have an epilator atm but always forget to use it/too scared to try it :o The sk:n thing sounds pretty great though, if only I had the pennies (or vouchers!)

    I'd never seen that No!No! thingy Cinny, I might have to do more research into it! I have an epilator but hardly use it because I'm too wimpy! After a few uses it hardly hurts but if you leave it a while then start again it hurts! Also my underarms hurt like heck no matter how 'used to it' I get, it always catches the skin and makes me bleed! :eek:

    Haha, all this hair talk has remonded me of a strange dream I had the other night where I found myself at some sort of social event with hairy legs and everyone was looking at me disgusted, is that some sort of variation on the teeth-falling-out anxiety dream?? *Baffled smiley*

    I had my legs waxed once and that was painful/expensive enough for me - and it didn't even remove it all! She said I must have a 'second growth' or something and would have to have them done again. Sod that I thought, and went home and shaved them! :D

    Meant to say nice bargains Dinah, and also looked up those shoes Swinstie posted on the other thread - top ones are SO lovely! You have to find them in your size!!

    I reckon you could do that in a year! Especially as I guess you'll be spending more in Tesco when you're not living at home? I've got a clubcard credit card for everyday spending so the points add up pretty quickly even if I miss all the promos.

    And yes, they say it removes all existing hair completely over the course, but their disclaimer is that you might need a top up after 2,3, 5 or 10 years or whatever (when you get old and start sprouting hair from who knows where, i think!)

    Oh, those shoes are lovely!

    Oh dear - not used my epilator for a while and was planning to get back to using it but no doubt it'll hurt like hell seeing as it's been months since I last used it! My underarms are the same, hurt way too much to bother and can't even contemplate that or bikini line with an epilator now (not that I've tried the latter but I can imagine it hurting a lot!). I like the idea of laser hair removal but I'd never be able to afford it!

    (Can you tell I'm supposed to be finishing some work off right now! Not happening though.)

    I don't know if any of you have seen this offer. (second one down) You just need to sign up, take a test to find out your skin type and they send you one of their '3 step' trial kits, the products are 15ml each and meant to last a week or so (I think!) I did it yesterday and they said my kit would be out in the post soon, hope I get it!
