I reckon that, when it hits 20^o anywhere, aircon should come on. That includes outside. Despite the storm yesterday, it's horribly hot & stuffy today - like breathing soup¹.

I'm missing my bright ginger hair. It was dry as straw, but at least it reflected the sun. *Thinks* Though actually, it would take a while to get short enough to be off my neck. Maybe cutting it all off & going peroxide blonde would be a better idea.

vulgarcriminal and nannyo have inspired me. I'm too unpracticed to do a full install of Project Bimbo, but I'm in the mood to try Bimbo For Beginners. I've been getting into the habit of shaving my legs (gasp!) every week - though I'm still not happy with the thought of showing them in public - so I can wear long skirts to the office. My toenails are currently scarlet. What else can I add to the "technically a girl" routine?

I wrote a big reply to this and my internet crashed.

Best to do things gradually indeed.

I reckon twice weely exfoliation and moisturising daily will make your skin healthier and it will look and feel nicer.

Exfoliate firmly but not too hard, if you use a scrub use circular movement (clockwise over body), using a mitt either do this or use long stroke towards the heart. Ankle to Knee, knee to thigh, wrist to shoulder. Circular clockwise movements on abdomen, gentle on boobs. Back and bum attack at will.

About 5 minutes tops.

Another thing that is a very girl like thing to do is to get your colours done. I've never had it done myself and fancy doing it if you fancy coming along? :)

I'll try the exfoliating & moisturising things, then. How long should it take to have a visible difference?

Re: colours, I was definitely an autumn when I had ginger hair. I've since been told I'm a winter, but that was just in Sue's front room & so the light wasn't ideal. I'd certainly be interested. Or a personal shopper afternoon - I need a new suit for work.

A personal shopper afternoon sounds good, I know Debenhams do them.

I may try to organise a group session for a colour consultant, split the cost round a few of us.

Exfoliating and moisturising. Depends how bad your skin is in the first place but you should definately notice a marked improvement after a couple of weeks.
