can anyone recommend a cheapish bronzer for a blonde. (not too sparkly but not flat colour either...I know i ask alot ;0))
Rather than going for a bronze bronzer go for a peach bronzer if your fair. Sheer Cover do a mineral one but its quite expensive, so look on ebay and try and get it cheap. HTH0 -
I have been using Rescue oil as recommended near the beginning of this thread, for a few months, and I have to say, it's fab. My dermatitis dry bits have gone, and I have less spots and blackheads too! I did try Aldi's version too, but my skin reacted to it, so back to Poundland's Rescue Oil, I now have a little stock pile, even though a bottle lasts for a couple of months! Can't recommend it highly enough, I know it feels oily but it soon sinks in.0

Regarding this helping spots..... do you mean you are using this as more of an oil cleanser or as a moisturiserI have been using Rescue oil as recommended near the beginning of this thread, for a few months, and I have to say, it's fab.

Can't remember if anyone has said, or if I have lol, but keep used teabags in a pot in the fridge. Each morning place them on your eyes and lay back for 5 while the kettle boils - I don't know why but this makes your eyes look super fresh and reduces bags (not clinically proven hahah)
HTH some one out there xx0 -

Heads up! the Superdrug MUA £1 complete range is now available on their website!! Great for those of us that haven't had it brought to their local store. I haven't checked out the postage costs.0

I got a cleansing/massage brush from soap and glory (£4) which has definetely improved my cleansing routine.
Also started using aloe vera on my skin - great acne treatment. £2.99 for 200ml from H&B.0 -
I went to my local Aldi today to get some more of this, and there was NONE!!! Shelves were just full of the Lacura range, whihc I never found as good.
I am really hoping that it has not been discontinued, as I love this cream...0
