The slightly worrying world of a freelance journalist, details of the ransacking of the interesting parcels of beauty stuff that arrive each week, and info on the ones that work and the ones that make you say "Oh for God's sake some over-tanned freak in a white overall just conned me into spending £20 on that."

Say Yes to Carrots
Have to say I reeled back from this one in slight shock, but for ludicrous reasons. A series from a million years ago starring Nerys Hughes as a District Nurse was my customary soothing post pudding Sunday dinner viewing and one episode featured a poverty stricken family who were gradually turning orange due to their excessive carrot intake. However, one and a half year old Sophie, my tester for the Yes to Carrots baby body lotion I was sent to try, was far too sensible to be worried by such pre-conceptions. Her mother was a bit sniffy about the packaging, as it didn't looked "a bit like toothpaste and I keep getting the wrong thing down from the shelf". It's reassuringly natural, smells "fine", said her mother, but Sophie loved it and kept pointing to it after her bath. Her mother believes this is because she doesn't usually wear baby lotion so the application turned into a cuddle and that was the bit she enjoyed. And who doesn't?
