I heard (I wasn't really watching) someone on telly this week say that glitter had been removed from a range as it's bad for the environment. Aren't all those sequins bad for the environment, too? I'm just wondering when Stop Oil or whoever will start throwing paint over people wearing them.

Not for me. I love the hygiene cream and the foot file but I don't really think the rest of the range is worth the money. The nail strengthening treatment was promising but I got a worsening allergic reaction every time I used it.

I just howled at that so loudly that Mr. AE and two muddy Spaniels came running in mid washing up to check I was okay. Mr. AE was washing up, not the Spaniels. Just to clarify, I do not have the world's cleverest dogs. Though anyone with Spaniels will know they're NOT helpful around the house...

I remember Camay. Mum loved it but my dad like Imperial Leather so we all had to use it. Pears was one I bought myself when I was a teen (the power of advertising!) but when I first visited my relatives in America and used my aunt's Dove I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. I still love...

Mr. AE likes the shaving gel but I got fed up with spending so much on them so tried him on a few others. Top of the canned shaving gels he tried came Vichy Homme Anti-Irritation gel. Just under a tenner but frequently at 30% off from Escentual.com. Bottom came Clarins. Top of the tubes came...

I recorded a few of yesterdays's shows as I had no intention of buying the TSV but thought I might have bought something different. The first thing I see is Alexis dressed like the lady at our old Debenhams beauty counter. Why is she decking herself out like that? Sorry, but rather than...

I still have a pot. It's still sealed but I can smell the, as my friend put, "*** put out in a coffee cup" scent. I stopped using it after she said that. I would have continued but when I mentioned it to Mr. AE he agreed with her. Gutted as it worked wonders for my hair.

You're back! Yay! I posted asking about you as I hadn't seen you on here for a while, someone said you were having problems with the forum.

Jill Franks on the Elemis 10pm show saying it's hard to get a decent primer. Twice! I take it she hasn't tried any of the primers QVC sells then. :rolleyes:

I recorded yesterday morning's gift show and have just run through it. I stopped on the lighter as I had considered it so had read the reviews previously. Ophelia reads out a review. Well, half a review. She read the first part before the reviewer's "but" bit with the most important...

I'm so fed up with companies like Dyson and Shark. Over priced, rubbish CS, unable to supply parts but - miraculously - can find them if you send your machine in to repair for £99. It seriously pisses me off that Dyson tools won't fit if you buy a newer model. I was under the impression that...

I remember her doing the "reveal" demos where she would take off makeup to reveal how well it covered her rosacea. I was fascinated as I had rosacea and thread veins but had them lasered off years previously. I was/am still unable to wear heavy makeup - heavy enough to cover my redness - as it...

Maybe she's been told to make up for Chuntley's disappearance. Seriously, though, she must have made Q a fortune with her before/after of her rosacea demos. She's rarely asked to speak but always seems polite and gracious. I think the *** kitten act is just a bit of p!ss-taking.

Perfect (y)

I've never met a DSD person and I spent quite a few years in the NHS. They are incredibly rare. It used to be left to the parents to choose what *** they wanted a DSD baby to be and surgery would be carried out as per their wishes. However, they can test for chromosomes so can carry out...

During the 10am show she used the term "gender friendly" to describe a khaki green backpack. Gender friendly? WTAF is gender friendly these days? Maybe it means the opposite of what many of us here are because we think the whole gender thing is b*ll*cks!

My BIL used Selsun Blue until it disappeared from the market. It was for fungal dandruff but my sister always used to apply it for him over the kitchen sink. My sis used to have small white dots all over her body but they disappeared from her forearms after she'd been doing BIL's hair. When...

Are you on a PPI or other stomach acid medication? I get pains in two areas of my abdomen after I take a few. I was told by the gastroenterologist this may mean I have a "smouldering" ulcer (or two in the two areas) but taking omeprazole and avoiding non-steroidal anti-inflammatories will stop...

My asthma nurse told me to gargle AND then rinse after taking my pump when I first had it off her. I always have but my friend was never given this advice and ended up having bouts of thrush in her mouth and throat. It was only when I told her that she started doing it and she hasn't had a bout...

I think quite a few here will have read my moans about our local GPs. Enough said when I was taken off co-codamol (which worked without side effects for me) and put on ibuprofen as, apparently, too many people abuse codeine. I was already on the PPI for stomach problems and have asthma. I had...
