Vintage Gems

1 . Keep your clocks out of direct sunlight , particularly the alarm clock . If the sun is on the face , the space behind the glass reaches high temperatures , this warps the hands ......... I know !

2 . Use blusher at the top of your forehead as well as on your cheeks this makes you look healthy .

3 . Don ’ t throw away a half used lemon , look around the house for taps that need brightening , lemon removes limescale .

4 . When choosing a new bathroom suite - a very pale mushroom colour shows the dirt least .

5 . As mosquito season will start soon , empty all the plant saucers of water and / or spray the surface of the water with WD40 . This alters the surface tension of the water , makes life difficult for the adults and also the larvae can ’ t breathe .
