Oh yes I remember, didn't he wear his Chelsea shirt? I think she was called Antonia de Sanchez or something like that.

Yes, and then was found to have made a porn movie!!!!

 

[tristar]

He as a good MP though, which is what mattered. he always came across as a nice shy gent. Didnt know about the movie.

 

[LE lover]

Lovely man, cheated on his wife. What a gent. !!!

Me neither, I can't see him making a porno? Is he still a MP Tristar do you know? Is/was he yours?

 

[tristar]

Anyway will they sell out of the tsv advanced orders in the 9pm hour? I reckon so, Im going to watch it all, Rachels feet and all. Im looking for some of them mini bottles, like a selection pack, they have not done them for ages. Those big bottles are a bit too big.

David mellor is no longer an MP, has not been for a longtime. I was a Conservative man back then.

That's a shame if you say he was good. Don't know much about him. I think he may be a Lord now?

I tried the propolis Gel and tbh was useless, wish they would state the amount of propolis or Arnica or whatever gel it was on the bottle as tbh i doubt there is much in it

The collagen gel is nothing but a moisturiser, the collagen has no effect on skin what so ever http://sciblogs.co.nz/molecular-matters/2011/05/03/collagen-the-biggest-con-in-the-beauty-industry/

 

[tristar]

Gosh Im surprised to hear that. i thought it was something more than just a moisturiser. Its quite misleading then, in the presentations, notive they are never specific but very general.

 

[jippyroo]

Yes it is VERY misleading as the molecule size is too large to penetrate skin

My brother in law is a pharmacologist poison's specialist, he used to work in the NHS but works for a major drugs company now. When he visited my daughter had a bruise and I was applying arnica gel. He told me it doesn't work at all. That was me told! At least he didn't tell me it was poison.

What a horrendous TSV! Arnica and propolis have a sufficient weight of evidence to support their benefits. I have used them both after surgery and recovered amazingly quickly - back to normal in 3 weeks riding my bike when I should have had 3 months off. But as for the collagen gel - utter rubbish! You may as well apply wallpaper paste to your skin. Scientifically, marine collagen or fish gunk as I prefer to call it, has a molecular composition rendering it useless to human skin. They are peddling a blend of gel base / seaweed gel, fish gunk and rose colouring. The only collagen that is going to help your skin is the collagen your fibroblasts produce. To stimulate them use topical vitamin C, massage and laser.

Have to say I've been using the Collagen gel on my face for years now and I like it. Whether it is making any difference or doing any good is another matter, but it has become a habit to slap it on immediately after washing. Also found the gel for aching legs excellent for leg cramps at night. Bought a selection of different gels years ago and never really use the arnica and didn't really like the smell of the Propolis.

Might be better just buying the gel from another source or as a separate item.

I don't care about the so called science I know the collagen gel does something for 'chicken neck' lol - maybe more about hydration than anything else but it's a good price to not have to worry how much you use - works well with the Rio toner as well.

Ive had good results with both the Arnica and Propolis gels and the shower creams are more moisturising than Elemis or L'Occitane.

 

[Julius]

Yes, the hydration will certainly help with chicken neck. The gel constituents will almost certainly help with this but will do absolutely nothing to restore the collagen levels in the skin. You would probably do as well to apply a good aloe vera gel followed by a drop or 2 of vitamin E oil. Some years ago there was a man on QVC called Harvey Taubman who used to say "only water softens skin," which is true. The trick is to use a water-based product first (aloe) followed by an oil based product (a moisturising cream or oil) afterwards. Applying it after bathing is even better.

Just cannot get on with SBC - I find that they sit on my skin even if put on sparsely... and I also do not like that they have alcohol in them so how on earth can they keep saying they moisturise? if I use collagen gel on my face, I find it very drying and I have combination skin. I also tried their cleansing gel for face and eyes and it stung my eyes so much, they were still watering several hours later despite them saying that you could remove eye makeup with it!!!!!!:angry:

Same here, DMS, I have bought a couple of their TSVs because I like gel products, but I found that SBC has a lot of alcohol in their products. ..just hold them near your eyes and you will find that the alcohol hits your eyes!!
I had the pink collagen gel , the 1000 mls one ,and all of it evaporated It just shows how much of it is alcohol!

 

[tristar]

The presenter Adele is not a beauty therapist but an 'holistic therapist' whats one of them exactly.

 

[tristar]

Just got mine, I like the cleanser and the cleanser cloth thing. Really pleased. The collage gel will last me ages as an after shave product and will use it all over the jib and eyes. An all in one for me, cant be doing with much faff, least this I will use with it being so quick and easy. I wish it wasnt pink though. Iv got the shower gel but might hide it in the airing cupbiard (with it being pink)
