Disappointing results
I've been using this for six weeks now and have not noticed any improvement in lash length or volume and they are still very pale at the tips. No change at all. Really disappointed and not convinced it's the genuine product. The price seems too good to be true but who knows!

Fact or foiction
For many years, this book has been discussed with contempt within my family. I am Sheila Jansen's niece. She and my father are half siblings, sharing the same father. I felt I owed it to her to read the book myself before judging it. Having done so, I can see why my father, his two brothers and his sister were all so upset. Written as a work of fiction, it would, for all the world, appear to tell the true story of how my grandfather was widowed shortly after my father's birth, leaving four children, had a relationship with his housekeeper and subsequently married her and had three more children. All the names have been changed except one, which puzzles me. My grandmother's sister, who took over the care of the new baby when her sister died, was actually called Jane - the woman I knew as Nanna Jane. The characters are so amazingly close to reality that it is impossible to believe the story is not about my father's family. They were all from Newcastle, his mother died soon after he was born, he was taken by her sister, Jane, and the other children stayed at home. My grandfather hired a housekeeper who already had a son of her own. Long story short - they had a relationship and later married, having three more children. Now, I never knew 'Mary Maddison' but I knew 'Walter Dolan' - my grandfather. I knew my father and his three full-blood siblings. Once or twice, I met one of his half-sisters, Sheila's twin, but, as far as I can recall, I never met the other two. Now, I can totally understand that she loved her mother and wanted to paint her in a good light but, having listened, over many years and from many different sources within the family, to how they remember the story, I would say that this is where the book can be classed as a work of pure fiction. The true story is far from a happy one and I can now see why this book has been regarded as a travesty of (let me be generous and say) inaccuracies ever since it was written. However, it was presented as a work of fiction so cannot be criticized for its content! Dispassionately speaking, it was a reasonable story. A little mushy, maybe, and the style of writing was too simple and childish for me. I think likening Sheila Jansen to Catherine Cookson was a bit over the top. She lacks Cookson's rawness and gritty depth. It was all a bit too 'schoolgirl romance' style for my taste. Sorry, Aunty Sheila!!

The Last Temptation Of Christ - Martin Scorsese
I love this film. Martin Scorsese received a lot of criticism when he produced it as it was considered blasphemous to even contemplate the possibility of Christ yielding to his last temptation - to get down from the cross and save Himself if He truly was the Son of God - let alone make a film about it. The film follows Christ's decision to do just that and plots the consequences, for the world and humanity, of that ultimate sacrifice never being made. No death. No resurrection. No salvation. No Christianity. For me, as a Christian, this film merely serves to highlight the magnitude of the sacrifice that Christ made. I would recommend it both as a very well produced film and as an enormous theological statement.
