It’s all the same players. I really wanted to hear more from DDG, he seems so interesting and knowledgeable compared to the top screen!haha if anybody caught what he was saying he was trying to explain we should be toning on a cotton pad compared to misting to remove hard water. That is way against hirons probably why she cut him off promptly.

Yeah and then dismissed everyone saying that Scotland and Wales have soft water. Forgot nowhere else exists outside of London (except when playing where am I from today roulette of course)

Poor Daniel from Medik8 always looks terrified.

He also reminds me of a posh Stevie G 😂

Renee rouleau does blog posts and she has been on the same wavelength about water impurities for years. Makes a lot of sense. Hirons trademarked “ think science” but she cannot admit to changing her mind as the science changes. It’s all about how SHE came up with acid toning and double cleansing and misting

Ps. Kate somervilles hands are shocking for some reason

I completely missed that 😒 she doesn't like people who know more than she does. that's probably why she was short with him.

I saw things getting a bit heated in the freaks yesterday when someone dared to suggest that although the app was free, the freaks would end up paying for it. The freaks did not like this and had a bit of a pile on, with Queen C coming on to say that the poster should screenshot what they’d said so they could come back and apologise 🙄🤣
Skins consults could cost.. 🫤🙄You’re not qualified to consult anyone on their skin, certainly not for money. And your faux Boots app is not as good as Boots And I’m not even a fan of Boots. Urgh.

She’s not going to do consults…it’s one thing to have the cover of giving general advice in her book and on her lives/app but can you imagine if the freaks had advice from her in person and then still melted their faces off? No way is she going to open herself up to that.

Several years ago, when the name Caroline Hirons wasn’t as infamous as it is now, a well-known London department store offered consultations with her for a fee, redeemable against any purchase made on the day.

My skin had changed quite a bit & from the little I knew of Caroline, I thought she talked some sense & seemed knowledgeable about the skincare market & products.

I booked in (& had to pay in full, in advance) and duly met CH for a skincare consultation. At the time, she was on a personal crusade against mineral oil & Bioderma micellar water. She was nice enough but demanded my medical history & wanted to know my diet and occupation.

I didn’t mind too much & duly supplied the “headlines”. I have a couple of complex, long-term medical conditions, one since childhood & another (at that time) for a decade+. My diet varied massively - as it does now - so I tried to give a rough outline.

When it came to skincare, on make-up/SPF days, I had long been in the habit of double cleansing (before ever hearing of CH) but also explained that oil/balm cleansers “upset” my contact lens (if I was wearing them) hence I tended to use a drop of micellar water on my eyelashes prior to double cleansing the rest of my face, with a flannel!

CH tutted & rolled her eyes at this last revelation and muttered “Don’t pay any attention to me then.”

She proceeded to suggest I go private & have a “scan” to find out “what’s really wrong with you…”.
I asked which scan she’d suggest: ultrasound, CT (+/- contrast), MRI, PET, nuclear scintigraphy etc & which region of the body she’d recommend getting “scanned”?
(Couldn’t hold the sarcasm back at that point).

Diet-wise, she advised I avoid the “nightshade family” as she believed that would make me “better”(!)

Product-wise: she wrote out a lengthy list of products. Some of which I already had but others of which contained her bête noire of the moment: mineral oil!

I proceeded to shop for none of the things on her list, fortunately I didn’t go to see her “privately” - at the time, she also offered “consults” at an office address in West London with none of the fee redeemable anywhere - & said department store had a really good selection of products so it was easy to get the booking fee back.

In general, I found her rather crass. Whilst I’m not a doctor (at least in the human medical field) I am a vet and I’m more than content (happy, grateful, confident) for & with the care and diagnostic efforts made by the (NHS) GPs, consultants, clinical specialist & practice nurses who’ve contributed to keeping me well over the years.

I was flabbergasted that she appeared to proffer medical & dietetic advice with no qualifications in either field. Even her skincare advice seemed contradictory.

So, in summary (congrats if you’ve made it this far!) I’d be confident she will be offering payable consults, with her, via her app. And I’m not at all sure that she should be.

Wow. Sounds as if she was pretty obnoxious, not to mention away with the fairies, even then.

Just had a look on Hirons' Facebook page (not the Freaks - I'm still blocked from there). As usual, loads of Freaks have bought both kits. Even though they're more reasonably priced than the last ones, £330 is still a lot to shell out with things the way they are. A lot of people must be way less worried about money than I am!

She was smiley & welcoming and expressed sympathy at the medical situ (which I’d rather not have divulged tbh, dull subject). All of that felt genuine but the tutting / eye rolling at the use of micellar seemed rude and elbowing into medical matters? Just baffling.

Also, v hypocritical to recommend products that contained MO, given how much she went on about that being an absolute no no.

I have to say I have just bought the hydrate kit, but I’m justifying it because I already use 2 of the products so I’m just “stocking up” plus I really want to try the moisturiser….. 😬😬🙈🤣
