Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash Pink Grapefruit " src="http://www.swatchandlearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Neutrogena-Body-Clear-Body-Wash-Pink-Grapefruit-smaller.jpg" width="330" height="292" />On a rotation with my favourite shower gel (Bath & Body Works Vanilla Bean Noel  that I reviewed way back in 2010), for many years, I’ve been using the  Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash ( Pink Grapefruit )  because I love the refreshing scent first thing in the morning. There have been some shower gels I’ve tried that smell too strongly of floral perfume or of the sea. I can’t get down with those. When I lather up, I always seem to gravitate toward scents that smell edible. 😉 This Neutrogena body wash is specially formulated to help those who have blemish-prone skin on their body. Even though I don’t, I still use it because the smell really wakes you up. Plus I like how it doesn’t leave behind any residue. (You know how some shower gels claim ...

It’s the summer holidays after I’ve left  school and perhaps my periods have  stopped because I’ve been anxious  about my A-level results. Or perhaps not. My suspicions that I am pregnant go beyond a missed period: I feel queasy in the mornings.  The pregnancy tests are positive. I run a deep bath, as hot as I can stand it, and drink neat gin until I am sick. It says something about my teenage ignorance that I have resorted to an  old wives’ abortion technique from the 19th century. The onl...

Donald Trump might display the sort of casual sexism that would make a 1970s television host blush , yet he has a remarkably loyal and close-knit network of ladies around him, from Trump women Ivanka and Tiffany and third wife Melania to his 28-year-old interim Communications Director Hope Hicks . These women insist the image of Trump as the male chauvinist who greeted France’s First Lady Brigitte Macron with the words, ‘You’re in such good shape’ is all wrong. Trump himself says he ‘loves women’ and even claims he spent his pre- Presidential career as a feminist champion . ‘I was the one that really broke the glass ceiling on behalf of women, more than anybody in the construction industry’ he has said. Women who have worked for Trump paint a mixed picture of their former boss. ‘I heard him yell and scream, but I never heard him call anyone a bimbo. I never heard him demean anyone’, former Trump employee Joanne Blank told CBS News last year. But other ex Trump staff members told o...

I understand the frustration that gardeners experience when they are forced to use tap water for gardening purposes. For most of my gardening life, I have been on municipal water . It is true that plants don’t seem to like it. However, when I moved to a residence that had well water, I did not notice any difference in my garden. Most gardeners have noticed that plants love rainwater . But we have to ask, are the plants responding to the water, or are they responding to the rainstorm?  Rainstorms add nitrogen and energy to water before dropping it on our gardens. Maybe that added nitrogen and energy is the reason we see our plants spring up after a good rain. It might not be about the absence of chemicals, it might be about the presence of natural energy from the storm. We can find ways to improve tap water to make it safer for our gardens. But can we replicate the magic of naturally healed water , with nitrogen and healing energy? That’s a tall order! Let’s look at all of our o...
