Advantages: Quicker, easier and no aching back! Disadvantages: Takes up more room than an iron
I was in need of a new iron. Not something for which I really wanted to shop as I had been perfectly satisfied with the one I had. The problem was that the cable had become rather worn and I was beginning to feel that it was dangerous. Apart from this I was never comfortable with the ironing board and consequently the ironing became a chore to be put off as long as possible!
In fact, not ALL of the ironing was a chore - some I quite enjoyed - some got put back time and again until desperation set in and I HAD to get it done. This was usually bed-linen. Whilst I realise that a lot of people don't bother ironing bed-linen these days, I was brought up to expect smooth well ironed sheets so they HAD to be ironed!
I had often looked at presses and thought it would be nice to be able to afford one of those. However, they ...
Advantages: easy to apply, lasts ages, flawless Disadvantages: they dont make one for the whole body
Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs has got to be one of my favourite beauty products of all time, and I am actually surprised that it has taken this long to write a review about it.
~About the product~
This is a product designed to spray onto your legs to give an airbrushed finish. It will cover imperfections, veins and scars, and add a subtle hint of colour. It contains vitamin K, and is weightless and optically slimming.

~Packaging~
The product comes in an aerosol can, similar in size and appearance to a body spray can. The colour of the can will ...
Advantages: even flawless perfect coverage Disadvantages: price
Some foundations which I wear really do play havoc with my skin; some of them are too oily and look really bad when I apply them, some give me dry skin and others block my pores and give me spots. I have lost count on the amount of money which I have wasted on foundations over the years, if I don't like the look of it when I apply it or I find that it dries or irritates my skin them I'll throw it in the bin straight away regardless of the amount of money which it cost me. On one occasion I spent £30 on a foundation which I only bought because I had heard that it was really good, only to throw it in the bin after three uses because it made my skin look all dry and blotchy. I had almost given up hope of finding the perfect foundation for my skin until my mums friend recommended Jane Iredale Pure Pressed Base to me. Albeit it is ...
