The Ladies at Bravissimo or Rigby and Peller won't judge you one iota!I'm too embarrassed to go for a proper fitting as mine are different sizes. I think one's a C cup and one's a B cup. When I had my son my milk came in really dramatically on one side and not so much the other. I've been wonky ever since
My aesthetician said the same thing - and that for some people, laser can actually make it worse, even though that risk is never called out. She and some colleagues estimate that in 5-10% the laser doesn't destroy, but "activates" the roots and that more hair is grown or that it at least becomes much darker. The only thing that would help in such a case and which is why she was saying it is electrolysis. I've had it done on my chin and upper lip - it hurts, but it's the only way to ensure it'll never come back. You can numb the area in question though with a cream.I had it unsuccessfully on my arm pits, it is better but it certainly didn't go and I had 10 sessions. I have been told (not sure how true it is) that if the growth is hormonal laser won't help. I also have PCOS.
Mine has certainly lessened and is lighter, so I only shave one a week or so now but it is certainly there and if I had known I wouldn't have bothered.My aesthetician said the same thing - and that for some people, laser can actually make it worse, even though that risk is never called out.

I bought the Phillips Lumea about 10 years ago as I figured it'd be cheaper than multiple salon visits. Definitely reduced my bikini line and underarm hair. Legs too. I used it on facial hair but didn't see much of a difference there. I'd say it was worth the money for the results I had as I used to shave my underarms daily. I'm very fair skinned with dark hair, if that helps.Can people please share their opinions and experiences on laser hair removal? Would you recommend it, how many sessions etc? I'm pale but get quite dark body hair. My face and neck are just awful because I have PCOS and they will be the first areas that I need sorted! Second will be my legs. Therapie clinics seem to have good reviews too.
same here, at home IPL works well on my legs, slightly less well in the bikini area and didn’t work for facial hair, hence I went for electrolysis there. For small areas it is okay, but e.g. legs would be very expensive.I bought the Phillips Lumea about 10 years ago as I figured it'd be cheaper than multiple salon visits.

I am currently undergoing LH removal - I have noticed a huge difference and have only had one session (booked for 8) - she did say the first session is when you will see significant reduction! It’s really made a difference for me… I had hair growing on my chin and underchin/neck area! Bar a small patch which has always been troublesome, hair is rarely growing in the other areas and I still have 7 sessions to go! I am having mine done every 4 weeks - but she said once the growth has slowed down we will stretch it out to 6 weeks!

I've only had one session so far but already seeing such a reduction so hoping the overall results are decent. I think mine uses soprano ice which I found mostly painless too!Can people please share their opinions and experiences on laser hair removal? Would you recommend it, how many sessions etc?

Someone here mentioned it recently, if you search for coconut oil pullingHas anyone heard of the coconut oil bathing (?) for teeth whitening?
Someone somewhere recommended the Chantecaille and it’s fabDoes anyone have any recommendations/experience with tinted moisturisers? I often have makeup-free days but I have an uneven skin tone which would be nice to cover up a bit on these days
It depends on the level of coverage you want. I have one by Boots No7 which I love, it's the shield and defend city light tinted moisturiser, it's a little more foundation than moisturiser but without feeling like you've got a face full of makeup.Does anyone have any recommendations/experience with tinted moisturisers?

I use two, the Rimmel kind and free which is a little more coverage than a tinted moisturiser and the elf halo glow which has no coverage just seems to airbrush my skin.Does anyone have any recommendations/experience with tinted moisturisers?

It had better be for £77!Someone somewhere recommended the Chantecaille and it’s fab
To be fair I got it at a good price but it’s really very good. I have a £10 off voucher if you want to go for itIt had better be for £77!
