That is good advice. Make small sustainable adjustments. What has worked for me this last year (I've lost about 2 stone very slowly over that time) is to do more exercise, eat more protein (re: my previous post), eat smaller meals, and cut down on unhealty snacking/ drinking. I also track my...

I do think DC could be useful for a couple of weeks as a way of training about portion size and convenience not having to weigh foods and think about what to shop for. As a long term solution though I have my doubts. Also nutritionally speaking I think it is rather too high carbs and low...

I agree that they probably use the P&P as a deterrent against people sending stuff back. I recently bought some of the new strong arnica gel and really didn't like it (gloopy/sticky and - not mentionedin the presentations as far as I remember - it says on the packaging to be careful of clothes...

I'm sure there will be exceptions but I suspect that the P&P cost is related to the price of the product - so that QVC can partly offset the cost of returns.

I agree here. Whatever people's views on the truth behind this bloggers blog in the society we live in a person is innocent until proven guilty...

I like Halo - but it only provides light coverage (I use concealer to cover any dodgy areas first). I do have oily-comb skin and I did find the shine coming through by mid morning - but for last couple of weeks have been using the Light primer (got a free sample from Debs counter) and that has...

I got one too through the post (doesn't say it's specific to the last item I bought from the Kitchen and Hardware range - that;ll be the icegrips from back in Jan). I also got the 3pay last week but didn;t use it. I think they probably target people like me who don;t buy much to entice them back...

Just switched over to this and my initial reacion was OMG what has Lulu done to her face/ lips? Wrinkles or not I'd rather look like AY anyday of the week...

I think MsTrouble we should nominate you as the forum's "resident beauty expert" because your post was very informative. It really makes sense to focus on protection for day care and treatment for night. The trouble with QVC's/ AY's advice is that they are tyring to sell you the product on air...

I like the LG bags but would only buy a leather patent one (stone was nice for summer). But the whole "made just for QVC" would put me off. But am I just being a snob? Has anyone bought a just for QVC bag (or maybe other items) - how does the quality compare to their normal stock?

I have a lot of nail polishes as well and tend to buy premium brands like OPI, Nails inc (dont have any LD). I think I'm a bit of a snob with brands (skincare as well) and recently have been making a conscious effort to try out (shock horror) high street brands instead. And I have found many...

I think Nalintha is the face of that brand. They hav a stand in Boots in the metro centre and her face was plastered all over it. I also wondered how much brown makeup peopel really need - perhaps QVC are trying to sell leftovers from autumn TSVs in the US?

I think the cleansing balms from Sarah Chapman and others (like Clinque) are a bit different from the tradtiaional oil cleansing method because when you add water they go milky and rinse away really easily. They probably add some sort of emulsifier to the basic oil base for it to do that. I have...

I love the Sarah Chapman cleanser and I have skin that is prone to blackheads and spots and since using that all clear (fingers crossed). Quite a strong smelL though - but not unpleasant. I am now using Clinique cleansing balm which is a similar product but fragrance free (and a bit less...

If Julia is confident enough in her appearance to appear in lycra and exercising then I think that is a healthy attitude to have. So what if she has a little bit of body fat around her middle (which most apart from the skinniest women would have if sitting on that machine)? I think she looks...

Following a comment in the QVC addiction thread I've also been spotting lots of QVC models in TV ads lately - e.g.,: Funda(sp) - R&B sexy album; Specsavers (the one with the guy on beach with the red glasses) Debbie who models for LE - wine ad before Come Dine With ME The one who got married...

Yes I also got the other Neals Yard freebie with Marie Claire last year. It was the francinsence hydrating cream. It was a bit creamy for me as a day cream - but great for night-time. Have been meaning to buy the full size - but I'm trying working my way through L'occitane sensitive moisturiser...

Just to add - I bought the marie claire yesterday with the free 50ml size power berry Neals Yard moisturiser. It has a light gel like texture quite similar to PCMC and in my opinion smells much nicer. Just put it on and it's left a nice non greasy finish. COnsidering that PCMC costs somehting...

I also heard Debbie G mention about the fish oils in the 'vegetarian' option. The other thing that concerned me was that she was saying that you only needed to add some vegetables to the meals (fair enough I suppose) - but if you chose the 'vegetarian' ption you might also want to add some...

No its not just you thinking that. If Melatogenine and Defilift are so fab why do we need this new super-cream. Personally I have never really been tempted by Gatineau. I'm not keen on ranges with pseudo-scientific sounding ingredients - melatogenine complex! What is that exactly - just tell me...
