how silly. Everything is about her don’t you know? If she can shoehorn herself into a conversation, group, trend, career, quirk, bandwagon, then attempt to take credit for starting said conversation, group, trend, career, quirk, bandwagon - she is your woman.It's not about you.
Me too... they are remarkably similar. The Hygiene Bank was a registered charity first - number 1181267 vs BB 1184944.I would be interested to know the story of how the Hygiene Bank and Beauty Bank developed and never pooled resources & knowledge. (The Hygiene Bank say they started after the founders watched I, Daniel Blake which was released in 2016.) If anyone has the scoop please spill the
Now that, skidders, is what I call *deeeeeep* research...Me too... they are remarkably similar. The Hygiene Bank was a registered charity first - number 1181267 vs BB 1184944.
I wonder why they don't work together for economies of scale? Maybe though it's just because boots and superdrug don't want to support the same charity?
It's wrong to hope the story is more juicy though, isn't it?!
That is very interesting - thank you. Hygiene Banks do seem to be doing what I *thought* Beauty Banks did. BB do seem to be mopping up a lot of big brands which must impact quite a lot on those without a 'name' fronting them.Evening all, long-time lurker (same story as most here, i.e. used to think very highly of SH and was disappointed by the Botox deceit - don’t want to even consider how much I spent on products she recommended).
Just wanted to say that a friend of mine works for Hygiene Banks and is very (but gently, kindly) weary of the Beauty Banks celebrity/monopoly. Hygiene Banks is working with the absolute destitute and I know from the parcels I see being made in my friend’s front room that it’s all about utter basics. They wouldn’t really know what to do with ‘spendy’ products or £100 foundations.
Room for all, of course, but Hygiene Banks are probably more Salvation Army-style (religion aside) than Beauty Banks.
I’ll go back to lurking now! Stay safe everyone.
Wouldn’t get Sali the headlines and TV spots she craves.That is very interesting - thank you. Hygiene Banks do seem to be doing what I *thought* Beauty Banks did. BB do seem to be mopping up a lot of big brands which must impact quite a lot on those without a 'name' fronting them.
Why didn't Sali just endorse Hygiene Banks?
Why did Beauty Banks need to use the word 'Bank' at all?Wow, was that ever a ‘borrowed’ business model. HB also registered in Scotland so better reach.
Isn't that almost the exact same as Beauty Banks mission statement?Essentially, Beauty Banks have taken their initiative, renamed it and taken credit for helping those in terrible poverty and now the Covid crisis.
The absolute fucking nerve of Sali and her mate
I've bored here before about when I 'stepped up' my routine and then got awful cystic acne on my jawline. So painful. I didn't even connect the two things so kept buying more and more stuff to deal with it. This lasted months, if not years. Anyway two things helped - I read Dr Hauschka said to put nothing on your face at night. Clean it, then leave it. I thought if a skincare brand isn't trying to flog you night cream there might be something in it. I then had a long period in bed and did the absolute bare minimum skinwise (wash, moisturiser if it was a good day) and my skin hadn't looked so good in years. It just needed a really good long break. I still now have quite a minimal routine (if you could dignify it with that name).irony is, the most profound improvements in my skin happened over a two-week period in 2018, when I quit skin-care—save for splashing with water morning and night—in an attempt to “cure” my chronic dermatitis. I had tried everything, but I hadn’t tried nothing, and it turned out “nothing” worked. My skin, amazingly, was its clearest, brightest, and healthiest with no products at all.
