Bean, i think I have a tube somewhere (it's a staple of advent calendars and beauty boxes) and I can send it to you.

I've just looked Bean and can't find anything, I must have imagined it, sorry. Good that it's readily available though.

I am relatively sure that I have Elasticiser from a TILI or something in my cupboard of general stockpiled toiletries (which will last me forEVER). I will have no need for it now that I've got short hair. Let me have a look when I get home and I'll ping you a PM if I do have some, Bean.

Just coming back here to say how much I love my eyelashes now! They look the best they ever have and I’m
so pleased with them.

My eyebrows seem a little fuller too, but it’s not too noticeable yet. I’m hopeful however, as Rapidlash is working so well for me.

My lashes are v good too - a friend asked me about them the other day. My brows seem to have faded a bit but I'm being less diligent about twice a day, so need to go back to that.

I'm very happy about my lashes now too and have repurchased. I've had comments on them and even my kids have noticed. I agree that the brows need twice a day, unfortunately.

I have been using RapidBrow for about 4 weeks and my brows have improved a bit, although I was hoping for more. I probably don't apply it twice absolutely every day but I do most days.

Yeah I went down to once a day with the Rapidbrow but unfortunately I do think for me it needs to be twice a day. My eyelashes are doing really well though, I had them tinted last week and the beautician commented on how long they were.

You're all tempting me with your Rapidlash talk.

I tried a new foundation from L'Oréal that has hyaluronic acid in it and my skin absolutely loves it. I can have a tendency to look a bit pore-y with liquid foundation but not with this one.

You are the second, real (non paid-to-say it) person who has recommended that foundation, lazz. I am going to check it out.

I had a sample of Sarah Chapman Skinesis Overnight Facial (or something similar), which I loved so much that I sold a kidney to get a full size bottle. Which, thankfully, I also love.

Which is the L’Oréal one? (I might already have it.)

I have quite dehydrated skin so I'll take all the hyaluronic acid I can get. I use a Q+A hyaluronic cleanser in the shower which has also had a good effect.

I believe the foundation (apparently it's actually a tinted serum) is this one: https://www.boots.com/loreal-paris-true ... d-10297635

I do not have that, but I definitely have something by them that’s meant to be more skin care than foundation & is nice.

I’m really liking the Clinique moisturise surge tinted stuff I bought.

I use that L’Oréal one too. Not sure if I posted about it but it’s brilliant.

I have just cashed in some points equivalent to the Boots card and in a few days I will be picking up some Bobbi Brown lipstick in Raisin. I used to wear it all the time and it lasts forever.

I bought the SolaWave red light wand and I'm finding it's made a difference. It's hard to describe what the difference is except that when I wake up and feel like I've been dug up, I look in the mirror and it doesn't show in my face. I haven't bought the serum to go with it. I just use my own products as I would normally. I've been using it for 5 mins every day for three weeks. It's quite a lot cheaper than the red light masks.

I just received an email from Glamour beauty club and got prematurely excited because I get randomly chosen to be sent samples of beauty products etc.
This time they were delighted to tell me they could send me a sample of flexitol heel balm :lg:
