    My neighbour had a white to brown tan the other day which looked good - i think I might have a go. But then she has the supple skin of a 17 year old and I have the scaley skin of a 34 year old...

  • hi great thread glad someone came up with it!! ok looking at getting my skin lookinging great for the big day which isnt till 2013 but thought if i could get in the habit of looking after it now it should look good. i dont look after my skin very well:o and so would like to know where to start, what to do daily, weekly, monthly etc. been to shop tons of stuff cleanser, masks, toner, moisterister etc etc so what order do they need to be done and when. Also for body is it just a case of scrub and moisterise or is there anything else i can do. Also was thinking of the fake tan as im half greek and my face is a different shade to my arms, neck which seem to tan at any sun but the rest of me is white and doesnt like to tan unless i go somewhere hot and even then my top half comes out more tanned than everywhere else:rotfl:might do for the tinted moisteriser that builds up over time me thinks. thank you everyone :D

    This is all I've done so far beauty-wise but what a difference! My nails are stronger and growing better (I'm an ex-biter :o)

    I'm not sure what to do, my skin has been awful lately. I keep getting heat-rash too but I'm cold all the time so can't wear less. Any tips?

    Gemm are you wearing cotton? I kept getting heat rash from wearing layers and from all the dry heat at work but brought some cotton vests and its much better.

    oooh I was wondering this too. I'm sure I found a thread on this a few months ago but I ended up lost amongst the medicinal aisles when I tried to actually find it.

    wanchai, I am keeping an eye on a bridesmaid who has a history of turning dirty WAG orange. at the first warning signs i'll be sending her a scrubbing brush :p

    I'm trialling fake tan at the moment to avoid the tango look. I spotted some Ambre Solaire in TK Maxx for half price and so far it looks good I have put it on 3 times and just once on my back (It's always much browner) and I think it looks fine. OH likes it and my friend didn't spot it on Friday evening, good signs I think. Now I just need to work out the regime before the wedding!!!
