Welcome, Bienvenue,Willkommen,Καλώς όρισες,Benvenuti,Добро пожаловать....

Welcome all, this will be one of many delicious stories I will share about all things that are related to making a lovely lass feel beautiful. I call them stories because the products that are posted have all been tried, tested, purchased, worn, recommended or not. Gone are the days where the product we applied to our skin or hair caused grievous bodily harm. I say this as my mind is cast to the eventual lead poisoning of Elizabeth 1 from her makeup. So with this, the polished golden rules that I judge all beauty products...

1. Product ingredients... a wise woman once told me "I will never apply a product to my skin where there is one at least 1 ingredient I could consume"
2. The feel.... How does this product feel on my skin... now.. in an hour.... after working day... in the heat... etc
3. The look.... you may think that that orange spray tan looks great but snickering that goes on behind your oopma loompa stained knee caps say other wise.
4. Costing....$$$ say no more
5. Availability... That mud scrub you purchased in the deepest darkest hut in Kenya may be the best thing you ever used however the reality of that product being available renders it useless.

Be strong. Be beautiful. We'll talk soon
