According to Make Her Up, Liv Tyler loves a bit of Get Fresh in her bath:

After a long day on the movie set, Liv Tyler soothes achy muscles by soaking in a tub laced with Get Fresh Spa Rx Mineral Bath Treatment

Well, I’m not a movie star but I know you can’t beat a nice warm bath soak after a hard days work… but I think I may have to sneak one home to try it out.

The Celebs on Sunday magazine, which comes free with the Sunday Mirror in the UK, had a great review of Geluscious Gel Moisturising Booties at the weekend (22 Apr 07) getting a rating of 8/10.

The tester said:

“Regardless of the condition of my feet (pretty grim) I can never be bothered to spend time slapping cream on them, or money on a pedicure - so I loved the idea of slippers doing it for me. I wore them first thing and last thing every day, and from the first use I noticed my feet looked like I’d given them a good moisturising. Initially, the effects were short-lived, but after five days the hard skin on my heels really started to soften, and with a bit of extra filing (much easier now the skin was in better condition) I had feet to be proud of. Brilliant and fuss-free.”

If you are a member of our beauty club, the Geluscious Terry Gel Booties are available now at just £17.95

and so do some of her readers…

She’s actually talking about another Nail Product on her blog (Beaut.ie): Most UNwanted: Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle but the comments are great for our fave nail product range.

"You can’t beat Jessica - lovely colours and fab treatments!!!!"

"Oh so good and so good for your nails. My favourite too!"

We love products from Jessica Cosmetics.

We use them in the salon, we sell them in the shop.

So, we made our very own Jessica Nails website.

Over time, we will put videos and stuff on there to do with natural nail care, but it’s early days and all we could manage today was the colour chart of all the Jessica Colours.

Any feedback or things you’d like to see, please let us know.
