    Finding the Palest Foundation

    I would second Lily Lolo if you prefer mineral make-up and I'll also 'third' the Illamasqua suggestion - their range goes from pure white to darkest brown and there are several weights too; light liquid (which I use), rich liquid, cream foundation and powder foundation. For colour range you...

    The entrance fee is £6.50 but it's on until 24th October so you've got plenty of time yet. I'm going to see my parents this weekend so I'll ask my mum if she remembers.

    Indulgence Day

    Honestly if I have a day where I don't have to do anything (which is rare, right?!) my favourite thing is to just stay in bed listening to radio dramas - preferably crime. I'll get up to make myself the odd cup of Earl Grey and maybe munch some biscuits, but I love dozing, drifting in and out of...

    Peeling flaking nails

    (Bartenders please merge this if you think it can be combined with another nail thread) I have pretty good nails apart from on my index and middle finger of my right hand. The nails on these two fingers flake and peel and, eventually, tear. These two always end up much shorter than my other...

    What's on Top - Bras, panties, garter belts, slips, & stockings

    I only wear vintage bras these days as none of the repro lines make my size and I currently only have 2 that fit and are comfortable enough for every day wear. One is mint green and the other is a dirty-looking off-yellow colour! My boyfriend is so past worrying about the things he sees me in...

    Discontinued!

    It was the first thing I did as soon as I heard they were discontinuing it. Not to brag but I only paid 99p for one pot and £1-something for the other :rolleyes:

    Discontinued!

    The traditional line is cold cream, rosewater and glycerine toner and a couple of other bits. It's in very plain packaging and doesn't cost much. They have it in the small Boots near where I work - I think it's aimed at the older ladies. (Sorry Fleur - stole your photo!) I managed to get 2...

    Please do! They were also featured heavily in the Saturday Evening Post so if anybody has any copies have a little look through.

    What's on Top - Bras, panties, garter belts, slips, & stockings

    Padded bras seem to be the norm, even in bigger sizes. The aim seems to be to make everyone's boobs look as large and spherical as possible! M&S do a huge range of unpadded, unwired bras (there the ones in boxes) most of which start at a 32 back. They do some fab longline bras too but they only...

    I adored the Floral Frocks exhibition and book. Walking into that long room full of dresses nearly made me faint!

    So, do you wear Sunscreen?

    I have a trouble eczema spot on my right shin (nowhere else - how weird is that?!) and I've had really good results using a Nelsons graphites cream I got from my local health food store. I'd tried every cream from the pharmacist with no luck at all but this made a huge difference and really...

    I don't think a lot of sellers on Ebay and Etsy even list them as Horrockses because they don't realise it's a collectable label. You get a few though.

    The funny thing is, there are pics of her in her twenties when she is wearing exactly what she wears now - headscarf, sturdy tweed skirt, hunting jacket etc. I am by no means a royalist however - I just think that Princess Margaret was stylin' :D
