Over the years I have scrubbed my face off, burnt it, broken out but still I can't resist.
This week I received a new cream and they warned me against it's super powers. I-MUST-RESIST!!
Is this just me? Can you resist?
On Tuesdays I link up with Diary of a SAHM
Is Nicole Kidman a strictly soap and water girl? Methinks no. That said, you're already gorgeous so you don't need it. But I know where you're coming from... the lure of the miracle cream is too good to resist! xo
ReplyDeleteNicole Kidman would have cupboards full of products. Thanks for commenting. Rachel x
DeleteIf you can't feel the tingle, then it's not working yet. I'm the same, mud mask says leave for 5 minutes - wait a sec, it's not all dry and crusty yet, I have to wait until I look like a golem before washing it off.
ReplyDeleteI figure beauty aid directions are like serving sizes, merely a suggestion.
I agree, just a suggestion. The better the burn the better it's working. Rx
DeleteI use to leave my miracle cream/conditioner/treatment on for longer than required until someone told me it can make it worse and not better. Now, I count the minutes it's on my head. It might now be getting better results but it's more tedious than ever.
ReplyDeleteI know but I can't help it. I am a more is more kinda girl. Rachel x
DeleteOh, I am a good girl. I always follow instructions when it comes to beauty products as I've seriously stuffed my skin and hair before by not doing so! Such a suck! ;)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to meet you on Saturday x
I should know better :)
DeleteSee you Saturday
I can't even remember the last time I tried a miracle cream. I do know that when it comes to putting henna through my hair I always leave that much longer than suggested, just to be sure
ReplyDeleteI little longer creates more shine - Right?? :) Rachel x
DeleteI'm terrible with beauty products. I buy them, intending to use them regularly, then forget after the second or third day. I've just stopped buying them! Chrissie xx
ReplyDeleteI do find unopened forgotten ones at the back of the drawers all the time. Rachel x
Deleteha ha i think you are a superstar for using them... because i may or may not use any products to wash/beautify myself... hmmm *coughs* lol...
ReplyDeleteslacker lol hhmmm *cough*
DeleteThanks for commenting. Rachel x
I have only just started religiously putting face and eye cream on at night again, now I feel like I don't have to collapse straight into bed after getting the (no longer) baby to bed.
ReplyDeleteSo I haven't even put a mask on in years.
But when I used to dye my own hair I used to leave it in longer.. and that is probably the worse thing to leave longer! But I was lucky and never came out with green or no hair.
Is that a mud mask? It actually looks like liquid licorice! Mmmm.
It's a black mask. I wish it was licorice. Yummo, how good would that smell (and taste). Rachel x
DeleteI'm not fussy with face cream, but I am a stickler for hair dyes being done on time (no one wants hair falling off in clumps), or hair removal cream, particularly in 'sensitive' areas ;)
ReplyDeleteYes - I will never break the hair removal cream rules. Not even I am that much of a rick taker. Rachel x
DeleteAh, see thats the one I always break. Double the time means double the colour, right????? Although I have never done my own highlights, that would be a definite rule follow :)
DeleteActually I'm the opp frm Jess. I'm quite particular with my skin care routines because I have very sensitive skin, but I'd leave the hair dye on longer if I DIY, because of my dark hair colour heehee. Convinced I need extra time for extra strength!
ReplyDeleteAi @ Sakura Haruka
I have sensitive skin and thin hair. I really shouldn't be a rebel at all. I am just asking for problems :) Rachel x
DeleteIf the cream will work in 2 minutes, it will work a little bit more in 4 minutes, right? But hair dye, I time to the second. I don't want my hair turning green or falling out.
ReplyDeleteYes - double it and double the good work. Rachel x
DeleteI don't use much creams or scrubs. But when I do i have no concept of time and how long I have been using it for. So I might go less or might go more and I don't really care. Things like mouth wash I use for longer though.
ReplyDeleteI use mouth wash for longer too!! Rxx
Deletewhats the miracle cream? Can it get rid of my big pores, black heads and the occasional monthly breakouts that will clear up acne scars?
ReplyDeleteThey say it's meant to. I'll let you know in a few months if it works :)
DeleteI used to be so scared, but now i'm a rebel without a cause, i leave that shiat in/on for double time and like you said, unless its tingling / burning it not ACTUALLY working.. is it... ha ha
ReplyDeleteExactly!!
Deleteif its creams and moisturisers than more is definately going to be slapped on..Im big on creams etc.. Love rosehip oil!!
ReplyDeleteface masks..I havent done one of them in a while.. time to book it in~!! ;)
I love masks and scrubs etc. Rosehip is lovely. Rxx
DeleteI don't use anything. I buy things that look good, and then... ummmm... who knows what happens?! x
ReplyDeleteA black hole swallows them all up? Thanks for commenting. Rachel x
DeleteOh you must share with us what it is? did it do it's job? I love a good tingle when I put on a scrub or mask..I just have to be careful not to scare the girls. he he.x
ReplyDeleteThe tingling is the best! My gils a so used to me just appearing with odd things on my face they don't even react. It's a bit of a worry. This new one is meant to take a few months. I'll let you know how it goes. Rachel x
DeleteI'm exactly the same! I always think: my skin is worse than they're talking about or my greys are worse than those they've tested on - I'd better leave it for an extra 10 minutes. Bad move in my experience, but it doesn't stop me doing the same thing next time lol!
ReplyDeleteHaha, that is me! Rachel xx
DeleteHaha, I'm the same way! Hair color for only 25 minutes? I leave it on for 40.mconditioners for only 3 minutes? I leave it on for 15. Gotta make sure they WORK, right?!
ReplyDeleteConditioners, they can go all night. Rules are meant to be broken. Rxx
DeleteI received a very generous gift voucher for my 40th birthday for Jo Malone. It largely went on a very expensive body cream. I can't tell you how amazingly divine this cream was. I went from feeling obscene for spending so much money on a body cream when sorbolene would do the trick to OH MY GOD I AM TRANSFORMED. I became so addicted to it, I couldn't save it for special occasions as I'd promised myself. The sales assistant told me it would last a year, but it was gone within 3 months. Sob.
ReplyDeleteOooh, Jo Malone.... I am jealous. I never spend much on things like that but boy I LOVE them when I get them. Rachel x
DeleteAbsolutely have to use it more often. You can't get too much of a good thing!
ReplyDeleteI agree Janet. More is better :) Rachel xx
DeleteThey come with instructions?
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA, you made me giggle. Thanks, Rachel xx
DeleteOnce apon a time I had beauty products that came with instructions. Sigh. Now I smother my hands and face in G's Johnson & Johnson baby lotion instead. No instructions required!
ReplyDeleteSee you on Sat! x
At least it's gentle :)
DeleteYes, see you Saturday :) Rachel x
I have a fabulous face mask that I make that's nice and gentle, but I'm a bit slack at remembering to use it so there's no chance of overuse ;)
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think my skin would cry with relief if I forgot for a while :) Rachel x
DeleteGuilty Guilty Guilty - especially when it comes to hair conditioners - there is never such a thing as too much ;)
ReplyDeleteMe too, lots for a long time. Rxx
