Soledad, have you tried the new L'Oreal lip glosses? They come in little silver tubes like toothpaste tubes. Fantastic, I am completely hooked!

I think I was mid-teens for makeup. I was such a tomboy that makeup wasn't a huge priority for me And I'm fair so my leg hairs took a while to make an appearance. I remember salivating over the Epilady tool that rips the hair out - looked so easy and painless on TV. My mum finally bought me one for my birthday. I was in tears after it ripped the first hair out and screaming when it took out another hair. For years she used to ask if I still used that infernal machine!

When I was single and didn't have to worry about shared finances I used to have everything waxed: underarms, arms, legs and bikini.
