This is a really efficient and lovely face cleansing product.You apply the gel to dry skin and as you massage it in it creates a lovely creamy texture which you then just rinse off. It leaves your skin feeling great and has the most delicious smell.

HATFITZ!!

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 27, 2008 9:04 PM

This is such a simple but clever way of making sure that a "posh" occasion hat doesn't end up slipping over your ears.
It consists of two strips of padding with velcro attached so that you can stick them to the inside of the hat thus filling any gaps. Ideal for weddings etc.

MARMITE WITH A TOUCH OF CHAMPAGNE,.

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 13, 2008 12:10 PM

Does your loved one have a passion for marmite and like a glass or two of champagne, if so then treat her on Valentine's Day to a jar of Marmite which is flavoured with champagne. It is a very smart jar the label being in the shape of a heart with I LOVE YOU emblazened across. There is even a space to write a message.

AVAILABLE TESCO,SAINSBURY'S.WAITROSE & CO-OP.

BIOSELECT REGENERATING 24 HOUR CREAM.

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 13, 2008 9:48 AM

Normally I get cheesed off with moisturisers and skin care preparations and change to another brand half way through the pot, but on this occasion I amazed myself when I actually came to the end of this particular moisturiser.
I think that any product containing olive oil is good and this cream was lovely to use. Only a small amount went a long way and was absorbed by the skin really easily.
Its available from BIRKDALE/FORMBY HEALTHFOOD STORES and there is a wide range of products in this particular brand.

Whilst there I treated myself to a pack of "white tea" which is a nice alternative to green and fruit varieties.

JML-DOKTOR POWER/ MAGIC ERASER

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 8, 2008 8:58 AM

Its really cold and miserable but forever the optimist I am programming my brain to think towards spring and spring cleaning. So I feel I owe it to you to suggest you stock up with a pot of DOKTOR POWER which is a super cleaner which smells gorgeous, it is so versatile and useful in kitchens, bathrooms, cars etc. The other product that I can highly recommend is the MAGIC ERASER which just looks like a white sponge and all you do is just dampen it and it removes really stubborn marks on tiles, worksurfaces etc.

Anyway have a browse on the website www.jml.com or look in Wilkinson's, Woolworths where they usually have a video running showing the various products available.

TELEPHONE PRODUCTS.

The most unusual telephone I have come across for a long time is the MYBELLE STILETTO which to all intents and purposes lookes light a bright red stiletto heeled shoe. On closer inspection you will detect that it has number pads which include a redial button and an adjustable ring tone. Really comfy to use.

However if you prefer to use your mobile but are not comfortable actually talking on a mobile phone then take a look at the RETRO BLUETOOTH HANDSET which is highly amusing and gets round that problem.
Whilst there browse the large selection of phone accessories and Rupert and the staff are excellent for repairs and unlocking etc. etc.

SOUTHPORT OSTEOPATHIC PRACTICE.

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 3, 2008 9:44 PM

I practice yoga and pilates and consider myself to be quite fit so was really distraught to suddenly be struck with aches and pains which turned out to be a pulled muscle in my groin which was really painful.

This was diagnosed by a visit to the wonderful Kay Atkinson at the SOUTHPORT OSTEOPATHIC PRACTICE. She is so professional and reassuring and gave me a real M.O.T and after a few visits I began to feel real benefits generally.

In the practice there are a full complement of treatments and therapies available incl. acupuncture,chiropody, sports rehab. reflexology and counselling.

THE FOOD DOCTOR BAGELS- SCHWARTZ ROASTED VEGETABLE MIX.

Posted by Sandra Gee on January 1, 2008 8:26 PM

Are you starting 2008 on a healthy eating regime, if so try THE FOOD DOCTOR BRAN & SEED BAGELS. They come in packs of 4 and I usually slice them in half and then freeze them so I can just use one at a time .

I particularly like them toasted and spread with cottage cheese topped with roasted vegetables. Have a go at using a pack of SCHWARTZ MEDITERRANEAN ROASTED VEGETABLE MIX for the most delicious and versatile roasted veg. All you do is mix the contents of the packet with olive oil and toss a mixture of vegetables into it then roast in oven. I also use them stirred into pasta.
