Thu, 2 May 2013 8:30AM
With winter coming around, I’m starting to think I’ll have to source my tan from a bottle. The last time I tried to self-tan, it was okay, not super-streaky or orange, but the colour was just off, and it made my skin look fake. Any advice or tips for self-tan, or maybe you could recommend… more

Thu, 2 August 2012 11:47AM

Tue, 21 December 2010 6:25AM
I have always had terrible cuticles – dry, sharp, peeling, torn, etc. I’ve tried using solar oil and hand cream and sleeping in cotton gloves but nothing seems to help. How do I heal my cuticles?

Wed, 17 November 2010 12:56PM
What’s better, hair removal cream or shaving? Which lasts longer? Well Ava, both shaving and hair removal/depilatory creams are a fast, cheap method of de-foresting before jumping into your bikini. Think about the areas you’re targeting for hair removal as this will play a big part in deciding whether you’ll tackle a razor or smooth on… more
