do you mean like an undershirt? I usually wear a thin polo neck under dresses / tops. if they tops are long sleved i am sure you can get the poloneck made sleeveless by a good tailor. Yes I guess a poloneck is what you would call it.but instead of the same textile all the way up to the neck, it has lace from the upper chest to the neck.not so hot, one would hope :-)

If the pain is along the bone in the arch of ur foot, it could be a magnesium deficiency causing cramps. Buy some magnesium and try it, its a natural supplement, wont harm u to try

Not sure where you live, but theres a nursery in jlt called kids world. They do childcare for working mums 7.30-5.30. They also have a bus service. They look after babies also. Give them a call, can't hurt. I wonder if other nurseries also provide a similar service....

I don't know if you want this for sport, but if you want to block a lot of sun out without getting "hat head," they had some great ones at Beyond the Beach in Marina Mall. Actually, they are more a sun hat that wraps the head and leaves the crown exposed. I liked the idea and the look of it, but my DH bought me a big ol sun hat before I had the chance to buy it. Thanks beebers. Im looking for something a bit dressy. I have ultra photo-sensitive skin and must wear a hat outdoors at all times. Getting sick of the regular hats!

Turkish beetroot dip. Sounds odd but it is truly amazing! Bake some whole, washed beets in oven on highest temp for 45 mins to an hour depending on their sizes. Let cool. Peel, then process with garlic, tahini, salt, a dash of vinegar. After its blitzed, add yoghurt. It turns a lovely magenta colour. Its so yummy and very healthy. Great for kids as they love the colour :-)

I heard there was some sort of in-salon treatment you could get that would soften your hair,but can't remember the name.it was like keratin but not damaging Maybe Biolustre or Kerastraight? Yes! These are the ones I heard about I heard the biolustre was a waste as it wasnt long lasting. I wondr what the kerastraight i like and if it repairs the hair instead of damaging it I've had both treatments but personally much prefer the results from Kerastraight. It does cost more but it leaves my hair in great condition and lasts much longer than the Biolustre did. If you are looking to send money on this Lind of treatment I would advise you go to a good salon for a consultation first. I've found Ted Morgan at Motor City and Pastels at the Ritz to be good with the Kerastraight products. I also only use the recommended shampoos and once every few weeks use an extra conditioner. Thanks yorky! Will have to save up.how much does it cost? I pay 1500 Dhs for the Kerastraight but it depends on how long your hair is so best to go for a consultation first. Biolustre was probably half that price but as I said I think the results from he Kerastraight are much better. Thanks

C4 at MoE still selling them a few days ago. Did u see any white cream eggs? they dont make white cream eggs, they have in the past had milky bar white eggs,but they are not cream egg mixture in it, just chocolate etc. cadburys only do the normal creme egg. Cadburys definately do the white chocolate cream eggs, I was the 'lolly lady' in a large department sore back home and used to sell (and buy!) Them. I miss them! they do white eggs, but not creme eggs. Well I have eaten whit chocolate eggs with white chocolate cream in them and they were cadburyo .ive eaten dozens of them. Unless they no longer make them,which would be a shame

Moroccan oil helped my bleach hair...... Where did u buy it, SKG? What brand was it? Just bought it from my hairdresser, Ted Morgan on the Palm. The brand is Redken all soft ARGAN oil and was like 100dhs but has lasted 6 months now, I just put it in my wet towel dried hair every couple of days. My damaged hair has been repaired and its not as dry as it use to be. Mmmm, thanks! where exactly is TM on the palm? Im gona go get some!

Recently, my friends hair fell off due to the intense bleaching products the salon used! I think the best way is to cut your hair short and switch to a healthier shampoo. Also, the weather conditions in dubai make the hair so dry, so try not to wash the hair everyday. If you are looking for a good shampoo, use Millcreeks Biotene H-24! Definitely recommend it! Hmmm, theres no way I can cut my hair :-( I'll just try to treat it. I'm bleaching my roots a darker colour (less processing time) to save the rest of my hair as it grows out. Whats this product you're taking about? Where do u get it from? Thanks JOPO :-) I got the Millscreek Biotene shampoo from Boots. Not too pricey but my hair feels a lot healthier now. I recently went ombre, which required the ends of my hair to be bleached. This product helped me out... Its an organic shampoo and helped with the dryness

Avocado is great for dry hair. After you shampoo, apply avocado paste to your hair (avoiding the scalp). Let it sit for about 15 minutes - then wash it off and apply your hair conditioner and rinse. Don't worry if the hair seems greasy while wet.. this goes away once you dry your hair. Alternatively, you could get some avocado oil and use it before you shampoo. Thanks, I might try the oil

Whats this product you're taking about? Where do u get it from? Why is the hairdresser using a bleach and not a highlift tint to gradually change the colour? Are they putting pure bleach on? Well, its my fault. The hairdresser stopped using bleach and instead started using a colour treatment 2 times. Which was better. But then I decided I wanted to save some money and do it myself, I bleached it, then used a colour. Tooooo much! Problem is my hair is almost black and it takes alot to lighten.

When i first came here the hairdresser i went to used pure bleach on my hair, it started falling out and breaking off in clumps. I now have a high lift tint put on which takes my hair down to a light blond. Any reputable hairdresser in Dubai should be able to sort your hair out and be careful who colours it in the future . I wash my hair every day have it coloured every 4 weeks and it is now long and in the best condition it has ever been in Yes, I'm definately taking care from now on :/
