If you have one of those 2 or 4 sided nail buffers then over use of these can damage your nails as you are removing the top layer. Buffing also produces heat in the nail plate where your natural oils are and therefore drying them out to cause flakiness. Also the way you file your nails may...

Very true. I find the beauty shows most irritating now as they mainly consist of all this. I am certainly not impressed with anything a celebrity uses and as we have seen the past they are often paid to say they use it only to pop up again in a few months swearing they use another product/brand!

The nail is made up of three parts: The root or matrix, the nail plate and the free edge. The nail plate which is visible is made up of many layers of dead cells filled with a thick protein called keratin growing from the matrix and then when it passes your finger becomes the free edge which...

The No Foundation Foundation contains SPF30. His range does include a SPF30 moisturiser and SPF15 Tinted moisturisers but QVC do not stock them.....yet :wonder: The sunscreens are also non chemical. :happy:

There are toners in his range but QVC don't stock them. I would have thought they would have included one in this kit to make it complete but then that would have bumped up the price even more!

You're right Donna. I went to a trade show back in 2000 when he first launched his range in the UK and bought his first book 'The Wrinkle Cure' and managed to get a few samples too. I do have many of his other books as his philosophy is very much like mine in that skin care is not just about...

She also said "and that the quality has never been surpassed by any other brand" hmmm Does that mean other fragrance brands like Jo Malone, Chanel and Dior are really rubbish? :thinking:

Did anyone see the repeat 'Beauty Showcase - The Zone' this morning? AY and a model were sitting opposite each other at a round table as they do when presenting products when the Bobbi Brown shimmer brick was featured. I was shocked when she got the blusher brush and started applying this with...

Thing is in basic beauty therapy training you do cover makeup application along with other subjects like waxing, eyebrow shaping, manicure etc once you have passed this level you are qualified in the application of make up. However it is down to the individual therapist after qualifying to...

Found this which goes back to 1997, don't know if anyone has ever come across this before. The United Kingdom's Beauty expert talking about cosmetic royalty Tova Borgnine.....literally! :grin: http://www.tova25.com/tova_audioalisonyoung.htm

If anyone is really bothered by their facial hair and epilate currently then there are facial creams/moisturisers available that contain ingreeedjunts that slow down the hair growth meaning you would reduce the amount of time and frequency spent on removing it. One brand that I use after...

Totally agree with you iclaudipuss :nod: Juicing is fab especially veggies as cooking destroys the enzymes, the raw nutrients are easily absorbed. When I first started juicing I was amazed at what it did for my hair, skin and nails and on the inside I felt so 'clean' and energised, well...

She did mention a few times working for Clarins as Training manager I think. Clarins would have definately provided excellent training. Think she also worked at Grayshott Hall health spa and would have been trained by the brands that were used there, possibly Clarins and Decleor. After...

As a beauty therapist I feel I have to say that each therapist determines their own future knowledge and where it leads them professionally. I am very much interested what goes on on the inside of the body as much as what happens on the outside that affects the skin. Four years ago I studied...

I've tried many brands over the years but there are three that I always go back to and alternate when one 'bottle' finishes - Gatineau Melatogenine Futur Plus Eye Concentrate or Sothys Active Contour Age Defying Eye Cream (used at night) and Dermalogica Total Eye Care SPF15 (daytime). Very...

I saw this earlier today and OMG it looked awful! AY said that Tracey the model was the same colouring as her when she clearly wasn't and so the concealer was far too pale and obvious. I cringed when I saw how it was not blended, the line up to her eyebrow and just stuck to the side of her...

The name changed from Aromessence 'concentrate' to 'serum' when they introduced the new packaging. The body oils are also called serums now. Aromessences are used in the same way as serums (after cleansing and before a moisturiser) and also because they are concentrates they are technically...
