Ok what’s the butt hold thread?

 

[DreamyGal]

Anyone seen the post about the kids?

Might be a bit late *hork*

Woman uses period blood for facials - and says it leaves skin soft and 'glowing'

Mary Miranda, 36, had her first period aged 12 and spent most of her teen years and early 20s suffering from painful irregular and heavy periods - before discovering 'Moon Blood' rituals

Well, they do say there is no such thing as original thought. Caroline will be recommending it before we know it!

What do you think are the negatives of using an acid toner everyday (or is it pretty obvious looking at ch's red chops)?

 

[Steptoe]

They were slagging off Ruth for asking too many questions

Why was slagging off Ruth deemed bad in the Ch group and worthy of a report/delete?

Did anyone watch the live earlier? She spouted that Britain uses over a billion wipes and plastic cotton Buds blah blah then after showing the first product, a ren cleanser, she proceeds to get a packet of wipes (off camera but you can clearly hear them) and pulls out a wipe to wipe it off the back of her hand!! Slightly hypocritical Caroline

I think I have seen her use Water Wipes which I think are biodegradable?

I don't use wipes (other than for cleaning my loo and cats litter tray) but if I needed to buy wipes I'd try and get biodegradable ones.

I have to say I have always encouraged my son (7) to have the habit of creaming his skin after a shower or bath. His skin looks better for it. Am I creating a monster of vanity?

Pixi Glow Tonic is nice and gentle but still effective. It has aloe in so is soothing at the time (which a lot of the cheaper glcolic toners don't have)

Its designed for everyday but start of slowly. You can always build up to more frequent use

The Nip and Fab pads are an easy cheaper option but definitely not as gentle as glow tonic.

Thanks!
I do use The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid emulsion but have read this can’t be used at the same time as an acid. Or it can be but you have to be careful, don’t think I’ll take that chance so would probably only use it twice a week. I’ll have a look next time I’m in boots for the pixi tonic. I’ve seen that a millions times aswell. I was just looking at the mario badescu glycolic acid too as it’s only 2% so wonder if that’s a good starting point? I’m lost in a world of acids

Interested to see what she says about K beauty because it’s cheap and effective no doubt she’ll say it’s trash

Oh, she already has. I think she said it was just a trend and that she prefers Western brands

 

[BlondeAlto]

I’m a bit confused now - I like the sound of this eye serum, but the obvious paid partnership with CH is actually putting me off. What do you think?!

 

[Skiddidlydaddle]

Hannah Martin is another who fails to disclose.

And also Caroline Barnes, if anyone watches her. (She is actually a great makeup artist)

 

[Libertine1975]

Is it just me or has she had lip filler too?

I don't think there is lip filler, to me her top lip doesn't look particularly full. Didn't she have cheek filler at one point? I think filler can migrate?

Obviously she might well have had lip filler and just not gone to the extremes we see with most celebs and influencers with their over plumped surprised look!

 

[Madamex]

Has there been fallout from it yet in the group? Will she mention it on her live later?

No lives this week AFAIK.

Guess it's a question of relativity so for me a 6 plus SPF step morning routine is far too excessive as my usual morning routine is 2 or 3 step plus SPF. For others they may be doing more steps in their routine so would be more 'normal'.

I'd be interested in what products she is using in her night time routine as imagine they won't be the same products so then an additional 5,6,7 products being used.

I try to have products I can use across my routine where I can like same cleanser, serum, etc. Apart from the sheer cost of using so many products I become more mindful of waste and personally when I use too many different things at once I find it difficult to understand what's working or not.

I personally don't think the steps shown are excessive. I usually cleanse my face and then use a mist to add a little hydration as my skin can feel dry especially in winter with central heating etc on. I then use eye cream a serum and moisturiser and if I am going out an SPF. The only thing I wouldn't use in CHs routine was the tan drops but then I wear a full face of make up when on days I go into the office.

I would imagine your routine might not contain a mist and an eye cream? I agree a mist is optional and people disagree on eye cream (I love eve cream haha).

I would imagine if CH is using retinol her evening routine is probably double cleanse, retinol, probably an eye cream and moisturier/serum before bed. Speculation, but I believe you shouldn't be using a load of actives if you have applied retinol and you need to leave it to work on your skin for at least 20.mins before applying anything else.

Why doesn't she get parents for her amazing and unique ideas?
