Paul Stafford's Hair Salons have lots of fantastic New Year offers for Sugahfix readers to make sure you're looking fabulous for less this year.

For most girls, drawing on or filling in your eyebrows is part of the daily routine. I have been dedicated to this for many years- I can't leave the house without 'my eyebrows on'.

Having regularly considered semi-permanent make-up application, I was put off by the potential pain of what is essentially a tattoo.

When the lovely gals at Zest Beauty Clinic offered to perfect my eyebrows and show me how painless the procedure actually is- I was nervous but also very excited!

Hands up Elemis fans and QVC fans!! We've got both hands up so we'll be tuning in to our fave shopping TV channel on Saturday to stock on the ah-may-zing Today's Special Value which is an Elemis 4 piece set which we've figured out is worth roughly £182 - give or take a few pence - for less than £60!!!

As with every year, January 1st came with lots of promises and resolutions about all the things I am going to change in 2012. After over-indulging on chocolate, wine and turkey over the festive period- diets and getting fit are all at the top of my list- but an incentive was required to kick-start my new lifestyle regime.

As someone who has eternally chipped nail polish, the emergence of nail varnish foil stickers has greatly interested me- and filled me with hope that I might now be able to enjoy chip free nails for longer.

If you're planning to start a family in 2012 then now is the time to start preparing. And we don't mean looking for cots and buggies!

While we all know that we need to start taking things like folic acid when planning to get pregnant if you thought you could give your child the healthiest start in life and really bond with your partner throughout the process – then Maria Rafferty's 12-week pre-conception programme could be for you!

The Sugahfix Gals have teamed up with Gordons Chemists to offer one lucky Sugahfix subscriber the chance to win a fabulous beauty hamper each week on the run up to Christmas.

Bursting with beauty essentials, this could be an early Christmas treat just for you or you could share the yummy skincare treats as gifts or you can spoil yourself with the goodies inside.

Hot Lava Shells are the first 100% natural, self-heating massage tool and are now available at Aura Day Spa on the Lisburn Road, Belfast.

Fans of hot stone massage will love this treatment – but where it differs from hot stones is that the therapy uses Tiger Clam shells from the Philippines as the tool with a self-heating mixture housed inside the shells which delivers the soothing heat to the muscles during the massage.

If you love high shimmer then Sugahfix has discovered your perfect eye shadow! Hot Totty is a brand new beauty range developed by Nichola Graham- a fabulous makeup artist who worked her magic on our gorgeous models during the Proof fashion shoot earlier this year.
