Immediately after the recession, it was observed that skin care in the UK was one the categories that was less affected, as women continued to indulge themselves. While it was anticipated that the economy might bounce back soon after the recession, the reality of the situation seems to...

Super premium jeans was hard hit by rising economic uncertainty from 2008 onwards, seeing annual volume decline over 2008-2010. However, in 2011 there were the first signs of recovery, with volume sales rising by around a third of a percentage point. This was chiefly due to a strong performance for super premium women's jeans, which saw over 1% volume growth. Growth was supported by rising economic confidence among high-income consumers.

As most dentists agree, people should come in twice a year for a dental exam, cleaning, and, if needed, X-rays. Routine cleanings have been shown to do more than help keep smiles looking attractive—regular oral care has been linked to overall health. Conversely, people who are suffering from dental problems like gingivitis and other issues have been shown to have an increased risk of several serious health concerns, including cardiovascular problems and more.
