Hydroquinone for skin lightening: good or bad

Answered by a doctor

Alrighty folks... this topic has come up a few times and though I've got no horse in this race 'cause I'm beyond fair (translucent, LOL, I'm for fake tan, not skin lightening), and got no hyperpigmentation anywhere either, I'm just really interested in this...

Mandelic acid in skincare?

Of all the alpha hydroxy acids, mandelic acid is the one that seems to always get an honorable mention but is otherwise not talked about much. I am starting this thread out of curiosity mainly. Who uses skincare products with mandelic acid, why, and what are your results with it? How widespread is...

Considering eyelash extensions. Anyone else?

I have horrifically short and nearly invisible eyelashes. After trying falsies once, I am now interested in something a little more permanent and have been reading about eyelash extensions.

Which anti-aging serum is the best

Answered by a doctor

What's your thoughts: ELDW Light?

Hiya, Yeah, folks, I do fully realise that I just slagged off the foundation I used to wear about 10 years ago, Estee Lauder Double Wear, on another thread like just a few days back. All that caused me to look it up on the web again and guess what I found? That same foundation has since appeared...

Swimming pool drying my hair out, what products can save it?

I am a great big pool lover, go swimming at least three times a week year round. It keeps my slim, agile and fit and every time I leave the pool I feel like a reborn person. I can't say the same for my hair unfortunately. My hair is slowly becoming incredibly and starting to look a little bit like...

Is there cheaper version for MAC fix spray? Or a recipe for homemade?

Hiya, Got the MAC studio fix liquid foundation the other day and it's so awesome. Got a great finish, yeah, really nice stuff that makes my face look awesomely clear and pretty. Course the sales ladies always try to flog more stuff while you're sitting there getting your makeup done for "free"...

DIY Anti dryness and anti tanning body lotion

OK, weird request perhaps, but the regulars here already know me... I go for the natural stuff whenever I can, and if I can make it myself, even better. So, it's pretty nice weather right now and I sure like to wear summer clothes that don't make me look like I'm dressed for skiing. Because my...
