  • Those of you who have OPI Victoria - does it compare well to Chanel's Rouge Noir? I love Rouge Noir when it first goes on, but it always seem to turn more brown in colour the longer it stays on my nails.

  • Is anyone else having problems with the swear filter? Mine seems to be picking up really random words, like (I think) the word that means that opposite of hate. It's doing on my home and work computers so not sure if it's just me or if the filter's on the blink...

    I don't have Rouge Noir, I have 2 or 3 similar colours (not recent ones) and decided that to me, RN was not worth the cost, although I have other Chanels.

    I found this comparison http://www.honeymunchkin.com/2013/12/27/comparison-of-nails-inc-victoria-and-chanel-18-rouge-noir/

    HTH :D

    Hii Roguey! :T I have the Dead Sea Spa's Salt Brushing and love it! I use it on dry skin or sometimes on slightly damp skin (though water dissolves it so best exfoliating effect when used on dry skin). My skin feels really soft afterwards! A bit messy in comparison to regular exfoliators but I would recommend x

    I have an unopened tub of this in my stash.
    Is it best used in the shower rather than the bath?
    Thanks.

    I'm assuming that's the word you meant?! :o

    I usually rub it all over dry skin in my shower cubicle and then switch on the water (+/- shivering from the first 3 seconds of cold water! :rotfl:) But it might be really nice to get into a bath afterwards as the salts are infused with a lovely scented oil that'll probably make the water nice and silky! Let me know if you try :) I don't have a bath tub so I shall have to live vicariously through you :D

    Welcome Sally22! :wave:

    Well helooooooo ladies! I am finally the other side of the Boots sale (relatively selective in my purchases and I've given one an an older away as a present and one of my older Boots sales already, with quite a lot of it being for children), although I think I have managed to spend a not-so-small fortune.

    Anyway, I have a UU: Mitchum deodorant stick, my HG and a GA Sanctuary mini set.

    I also have 4 INs: 4 x TBS Vitamin E Illuminating Cream. I got them at The Body Shop outlet near me, which has quite good discounts (-20% if you buy 2 items, -30% for 3, -40% for 4) meaning that the average price per pot was £6 instead of £10. That's probably me stocked up for the year...I resisted the shower gels, though, and I was REALLY tempted. :A

    Right, I'm off. Take care of yourselves and speak to you soon. :)
    Please call me 'Pickle'
