Diary of Lisa Taylor, reluctantly 42 (and a half)

Or.. 'f.ck me I'm forty.. two.. and a half', though can look 38 on a - not so deluded - good day. Or 'How to reconcile a well experienced mind trapped in a still - but for how long? – youthful body.' Don't have the 30somethings angst/problems, neither have the resigned (?) ageing baby-boomers in safe family territory outlook yet. Here's how I cope, one day all sexy women will get old... but never invisible. © Lisa Taylor 2005/6/7/8/9. Jeez.. so much for the 42 and-a-half delusion

1 September - Lisa's Beauty Tips part 1

Toph’s been away for a while, but his return is imminent, so some essential maintenance is needed so here’s Lisa’s top tips.
Fee: paint toenails, preferably red. Feel free to go over the edges as much as you like because with my method it’s all v. easy to remove smudges. Your toenails will look like a 5 year old has painted them, but.. when polish is dry…. Get thee into the bathtub, smudge Vaseline over the nails and peel off the excess polish round the edges with your thumbnail. In fact you don’t even need the Vaseline. It just comes off, magic. Then put whatever foot cream you like on feet, almond oil is perfect, cheap at your local Turkish/Greek shop no need for expensive brand, wrap feet in kitchen cling film, wear tight socks on top. Go to sleep and next morning feet are as soft as babies. For him to suck your toes better.
Quim: Toph saves me money at salons as he's not a fan of chicken skin beavers. Took me a while to abandon Brazilians, but as I said, money saved. As we’re not talking a big bush here, some hair still needs to be removed. Just don’t razor day before encounter, or when you’re somewhat distracted or dreamy or else…. That Aloe Vera will come in handy.
Face: my fave discovery, you know all those expensive and I mean costing over £50/£100 magic creams by Dr Sebag and the like which contain vitamin C etc??? Well, how about this… go to Holland and Barrett, buy some powder vitamin c and either mix a bit with your face cream – fluid is better - or better results achieved by mixing it in a few drops of water and coating your face. Rub in especially on your lines. Feels a bit burning but, next day it’s like you’ve been botoxed and saved hundreds. Lasts 24 hours or so, so keep repeating as often as possible. Incidentally if you stay in one evening and overdose with Vitamin C (keep taking it with water or juice) till you start to er, expel what’s been hiding in your guts since last Christmas and you’ll be cleansing your colon without having to go to the Hale clinic and give them £80.
Ain’t I good to you?

    I have read your post and tend to lean towards your opinion also, however, there are lots of conflicting opinions online. Do you have any evidence to back this up?Thanks,RD Martinwebmastercolon cleansing
