You SWEAR by? What beauty products REALLY work and which ones DONT?

Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E in the big tubs.

i cant say ive tried that,is it a mosturizer?

Dove soap, has the same effect as angels on bare skin by lush but at a fraction of the price, around 50p per 100g as opposed to £4.50 per 100g.

i have that - but i don't really use it - does it really work.

I hate the smell lol

Yep - it's a moisturiser - cheap as chips and does the job really well. And smells yummy too.

EDIT - just seen the post above!! Horses for courses I guess. But get the stuff in the tubs rather than the bottles. It's great as an after sun moisturiser and using overnight. It doesn't leave your skin feeling slimey.

Oil of Olay. I look 14.

Water. Drink lots of it!!


Moisturises your skin properly. From the inside. Without the bullsh1t.

Yeah but you're actually 10.

In dog years.

I dont so much swear BY, but swear AT all the beauty products my OH seems to collect!!!

Every week there seems to be about ten new products on the bathroom shelf while the ever grwoing pile of hardly used ones gather dust in the corner! lol

Beer, it makes me attractive and gives me the power of dance

Body shop's coconut body butter and touche eclat

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is a must, makes your skin really "glow" and nice and soft. It also doubles up as a face mask once a week.

I also swear by Diorshow Mascara...gives me bambi eyes!

Beauty products = Artificial Additives and Sweeteners to give you that zestful lift and revitalisation.

Forgot Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream

ahhh i havent tried any of these!! i LOVE maxfacor XXL mascara where its white on one end and black on the other,gives you really nice eyelashes.

Avon anew skincare, I love their ultimate day cream and eye cream, and the new treatment thermafirm. Hell I love all avons stuff, but I do swear by the skincare.

Love L'Oreal Telescopic mascara, of all the mascara's I've tried (which is a lot, I have quite a collection) this is the best.

Also Benefit products, especially their foundation, expensive but worth it, especially for me as I can never find the right foundation colour.

Water. A few days of drinking extra water and my skin shows more improvement than with any cosmetic I've ever bought!

Sleep too! If you don't get enough sleep then Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer is the best for hiding dark shadows. I've tried them all and nothing comes close to this. Not even the famous Touche Eclat.

Also love Dior Capture XR60/80 serum. Don't think it does any good, but the smell is gorgeous.

YSL Touche Eclat and vaseline. i put vaseline on my lips before bed every night and i never have a problem with dry lips (hubby loves how soft they are).

Also Molton Brown hand and bath products - i won't use anything else in the shower or any other hand wash or hand lotion - they are just so fantastic. Although keep an eye on QVC for some major discounts on Molton Brown.

Their Rose Granati hand wash smells lovely.

Lush products are great

Another vote for this one from me too. I've got the one which has Alpha/Beta Hydroxy & Shea Butter in it and I love it as it is ok for face and body. I think it is about £3-£4 for a good sized bottle.

Also Benefit Lemon Aid, or most Benefit stuff come to that.

I'm an Inspiring Wild Indigo girl myself. God bless the MB outlet store in Portsmouth.
