I always thought Fullers Earth was mainly used for nappy rash/skin sores.
I do know it's been around for years,but having just googled the product I'm amazed at it's history and other uses.

You can certainly learn something new every day!

my grandmother used fullers earth cream.
when i reached 18 and started using make up my gran handed me me a tin of fullers earth iapply it on a night and my skin is soft and smooth wouldnt use enything else .
it now comes in a sall tub and its cheap .

I read a book by Janet Street Porter abnd she was reccomended by a top beauty person to alternate expensive with cheeper products and said it was better for the skin.

Im ok with face creams but tend to use the more expensive hand creams.
My hands are in and out of water all day at work and the alcohol gell drys them out. Ive tried all types of hand creams but the cheeper ones and not really up to the job

I'm a Nivea fan,have used it since I was a teenager,,,,,,obviously don't look like a teenager now :O(
...but I think I've still got good skin.

Can't use Ulay products,did once and my eyes puffed up so much I looked like I'd taken part in a boxing match lol

You're never too young to use face cream Stray !!! Wish I'd started using it earlier !!!

x

aw i dont use face creams coz im to young too! hahahaha

seriously tho i dont i use any face creams etc, hand cream now n again when my hands are dry, good old Avon, but then im a big fan of all Avn products x

I tend to have a reaction to face products,so stick with Ulay, and Vaseline Intensive Care for my other 'bits'.

i have been an A**n lady for a few years now and so have tried a variety of their creams. i find their anew skincare for mature skin works for me. it does cost about £18.00 a jar, but you only need a small amount and it lasts for about 3 months, which i think is good value.

of course being an agent i do get a discount and demo products very cheap which is a bonus.

I agree with Suemaid, a lot of it is genes. I'm lucky, my mum has good skin and I seem to have inherited it. I rarely use moisturiser, although I should especially now I'm getting older. I just forget to use it. When I do I don't use a specific one though, I buy what appeals to me at the time.

I see I haven't lost my thread killer touch :-)))))

Elizabeth Arden products are the only ones that do not irritate my skin.....and yes I think they work.

I've used lots over the years, Nivea is a good less expensive one, but I do find that the more expensive ones are better. I don't pay silly money though! I also have sensitive skin so tend to use products that are plant, rather than petroleum, based.

Why is BC charming but not scary and I'm just scary? Mmmmm?

They sell them dead cheap at the markets I go to BC...I'm a bit in awe of the cheesy wotsit coloured sales ladies at the big department stores on them counters lololol. Even though one of my best friends used to be one (which was what made me use Clarins in the first place cos i used to get if for nowt lol) x

I just like having a full sized one (pardon the pun ;0)) so that I don't have to spend every 3rd day trying to squeeze the dregs out of the little 2ml tester lol

ps...you're not scary..you're charming...THAT is why they give the freebies my lovely lololol x

Muffy, you could go into all your department stores and ask for a free sample...say you want to try it before you buy. I always get free samples, maybe cos I look so scary! lol Be bold! BC XX

LOL McB..x

Reason for asking is that I always used Clarins..then for a while economised and went onto the Aldi range..which I thought was ok til I got hold of some Clarins cheap...and the difference within a week was marked !!!

Annoyed that it's the case for my skin but it just is :0(

Now know what I will be getting every birthday and Christmas ...as I can't bring myself to buy it on the family budget !!! :0(

xx

I just use Nivea.....simple but effective :o)

It might do the job McB but its a bit smelly, lol.

Swarfega takes some beating, LOL
