I have been recovering from surgery over the last few days so I have been treating myself with the above delights!! They have healing properties you know..........!!
I also bought myself a lovely new bedspread as I knew I would be spending alot of time in it! I usually prefer vintage type bedspreads but I thought this stripey one was nice for a change!
Irish blog about beauty,life and things i like - is exactly what it says on the tin!

Life - Skin Tags (read at your own risk)
This post comes with a WARNING!!

If you have skin tags you will know what they are and you will be delighted to hear I found a solution.....If you don't - this post may put you off your food!! I was trying to decide whether or not to post about this as I don't want to gross people out...but I spent a lot of time researching this topic when I needed relief so I decided that it would only be fair...!!
Firstly if you would like to see a picture of skin tags you can click HERE. A skin tag is basically a little additional bit of skin...it looks similar to a rice krispie and usually never causes anyone any bother. For as long as I can remember I had a few skin tags on my inner thighs, they were always there and never gave me too much trouble, that is until recent years. I think what changed was that my fashion changed and I wore a lot of tights and leggings and the problem was that the tights and legging were rubbing against the skin tags and really aggravated them and sometimes caused them to bleed!
So this brought me on many trips to my local GP where I was placed on a waiting list for removal in my local HSE hospital.....(I'm still waiting!!). Eventually a friend recommended a different GP in my locality with an interest in skincare.....so I made an appointment with him to see what he could do!
On meeting him, he told me that he would sort them out there and then! He got a solution (Liquid Nitrogen I think) and applied it with a cotton bud to the skin tags...I felt a slight tingle and heard a little "sizzle" and that was it....€40 later I left in the confidence that they would drop off a week or two later...which they did!
This was over one year ago and I am so happy with the results....I need not have suffered so long.
Do any of you suffer from these?....
What did you find worked for you??...
