Sali Hughes #33 Grifty shades of grey. It's a complex case.

[Badabing101]

I have to say the comment at the bottom also ended me “who is the person she looks like who they don’t like?”

Is the person that we / they don’t like that reminds her of Sali, the troll that she had on the radio ‘documentary’? Did she call her Rebecca or Helen or something like that?

 

[Merle]

Is it true that Sali isn’t a fan of Lisa Eldridge?

Hm, not sure, but I think I recall her saying once that Lisa is an MUA, while she's a journalist herself. Sounded to me like she doesn't like to be compared to her.

What is this GTL group?! I’m so curious now!!

It's her facebook group called Sali Hughes Get The Look. The Facebook group was active years ago but was abandoned when she set up a forum in her own name. That didn't really turn out as well as hoped so the Facebook group was reactivated

zelens youth glow foundation is great. Does not settle in wrinkles, does not make pores seem more obvious. You don’t need powder over it either - it’s really really nice.

Talk about targeted ads, do you want white and dark with a bit of a brassy tinge?

Oh God sorry thats my post!!!

She was always a lover of the Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser, in the olden days.

In one foundation Oslo is white - Barcelona is beige - Aruba is bronze and Zambie is the darkest colour. And all places in between.
Is that racist? Genuine question.

I always thought that Groenland and Finland and the pale shades were called that because of the cold climates. And the warmer climates were darker/ warmer colours

 

[HotesTilaire]

That’s what she is saying. I think it looks like she is doing the opposite.

I

I love Suqqu , I have to make my skin dewy to the point of damp to work it in but the result is lovely.

There’s no better foundation for me than Parure Gold , it’s sublime.

Oohh...tell me more about it. Would it work on dry skin?
(Also, warming up skin via foundation...I thought this was a no-no?)

Eek, that is actually my comment! But her 'original' hair does look like a wig. It's too solid a colour and heavy (which is remarkable given how fine her hair is)

Like Sali (I've managed to spell her name correctly this time), I'm 30% grey and have used lockdown to embrace my grey. However, despite going to the hairdressers to speed things along, my colourist refused to dye my roots which is the exact opposite to what Sali has had done. And I agree with many that her hair is a light ashy blonde for the most part. The thing that is most apparent is that it just not a very good dye job. Luckily for Sali, she did not have to pay for it. I know if my colourist had done that to me, I'd have demanded my money back, had someone else to adjust the colour and started looking for a new colourist.

As I am new to this thread, I just want to say I have never been a fan of Sali, I have always found her disingenuous in the same way as Caroline Hirons. And having fallen for CH's schill, I saw through Sali pretty quickly. Also, and most pertinently, I just don't think Sali is a good writer or journalist, so mostly avoid her and her 'work' until yesterday on Mumsnet.

First of all welcome. Secondly as someone whose hair has been steadily falling out for about 4 years and who is now seeing her wiggy future, I found it hilarious. And it seems that hair, even when we have it, brings so much drama into our lives.

It’s a really good one - I use it maybe twice a week max in the evening and I wake up with the face of a 25 year old

What does it do for you?

 

[MissHavisham]

Brassy is what every blonde is trying to avoid.

 

[clondon]

I'm mainly grey at the front, a little bit, and otherwise a brunette. For the moment I'm keeping it as it is. I played around with putting light highlights in so the grey would show us much when it grows back but decided against it. Expect I will get highlights in the end. Aveda Shampoo and Conditioner are good for fine hair (mine is too).

the glasses chain is a lovely addition.

Anything's better than those shovels she had.

That is a CONDITION she has hater.

(Obv not mocking anyone with icthyosis - just the fact any mention of her hands or nails here she brings it back to that).

 

[melfish]

ok that's good. I'm glad that my GP is very open to suggestions. He ordered the blood test immediately and added things I suggested to the list of tests. Then again I pay for every test so he does not have to keep within a strict budget. Does your gyn say why she is reluctant to order tests? I mean they're fairly straightforward and don't cost that much in comparison...

It's not the doctor so much as the insurance companies. They run the show here

Jack Monroe didn't actuy get banned, we asked her to stop posting as she was being disruptive
Thanks, yep that's pretty much the case. People aren't banned for correcting stuff they'd be banned for the "you're all sad scum of the earth loosers" that they start their post off with. People that are the dictionary definition of trolling (posting to disrupt a community) are banned. But Sali never lets the truth get in the way.

I do love how one single post (selling her children) that was clearly a joke she's still feasting on and misrepresenting

my mistake, apologies.

 

[melfish]

Yeah, I am on HRT. But if everything else checks out, I guess this might be just my new normal

 

[LyraBalaqua]

Slight interjection here. Just wanted to than @Aude - I think it was you who suggested the Australian Gold tinted SPF? It’s absolutely brilliant, either under makeup or on its own. Plus huge tube. Excellent recommendation

Looking up @Aude’s recommendation

 

[TriviaNewtonJohn]

I’m not sure that ever stops us, or should. It’s no worse than anything else we’ve said is it?

She thinks we're obsessed with her sex life. Happy with whatever is chosen though.

 

[HotesTilaire]

I think there’s a little blood in the stool. AKA pink eye.

Also the lips, she has tried to warm up subtly
