Hay fever sufferers have been having a really rough time lately.
June is never a pleasant month for those with pollen-induced allergy, but this year seems to really be knocking it out of people.
It’s probably no surprise then that there’s been plenty of talk social media once again about the hayfever wipes that went viral last year after one mum claimed they gave her son “his life back” and could be lifesaving for other sufferers.
She discovered a pack of Nuage Hayfever Relief Wipes – and they did just the trick.
Posting on Facebook and to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, Margaret McInnes said at the time: “Just a tip for anyone who suffers badly from hay fever. My son has tried everything going, but these wipes gave him his life back.
“[He has] tried absolutely everything over the years. Eye drops / nose sprays – lots of different pills. Nothing worked. Showering 4/5/6 times a day to get pollen off him.
“I can’t hang his clothes or bedding on the washing line.
“These wipes which we discovered last year help loads. Anyone you know who suffers from this – get some packs of these wipes”.

After sharing the tip of these tried and tested wipes, Margaret’s post amassed well over 10,000 interactions and comments from other members of the public, not only thanking her for the recommended advice, but also claiming that they rapidly relieved their hayfever symptoms too.
One group member commented: “I got some yesterday. They are good and have very good reviews”.
Another wrote: “I got my son some they are helping. His hay fever is showing no signs of improving with age but they help for an instant fix”.
Suitable for use on both hands and face, the Nuage Hayfever Relief Wipes are infused with peppermint and tea tree oil to not only relieve symptoms, but also to soothe skin and prevent pollen from irritating it further.

The best bit about them, other than the “life-saving” part of course?
You won’t have to spend that much time looking to get your hands on them as they’ve been spotted for sale in The Range, B&M, Poundstretcher, Poundland and Savers.
Oh, and they’re only 99p too.
It looks like the days of carrying around an endless amount of tissues is finally over then.

Beauty brand and viral cosmetics giant P. Louise has announced her first ever flagship store, and it’s opening at Trafford Palazzo.
Droylsden-born beauty guru, turned makeup mogul, P. Louise, is opening her first ever flagship store in Manchester in one of the region’s biggest shopping centres.
Titled P. Louise City, the pastel pink viral cosmetics company is launching its very-first physical site in Trafford Palazzo.
The beauty brand has become a social media sensation, as well as a Greater Manchester hotspot thanks to its P. Louise Empire headquarters located in Stockport.
This pink-furnished warehouse site offers customers an immersive experience with makeover sessions, shopping DIY activities, a cafe, and lots of photo opportunities.
The upcoming P. Louise City is set to build off this success with a 19,000 sq ft store that houses a variety of distinctive zones with iconic names.
You’ll be able to quench your thirst at the ‘Bad B*tch Juice Bar’, find all the latest pink-hued goodies at ‘Juicy News’, and pick up all your essentials at the ‘P. Louise Supermarket’.
P. Louise may not be a medical company, but her ‘P. Louise Pharmacy’ will cure all your retail therapy needs, and although many of her fans already knew her products were liquid gold, the ‘P. Louise Vault’ definitely confirms this.
As well as lots of shopping areas throughout this massive Trafford Palazzo site, there will be lots of hands-on activities – including makeup education zones, and even a dancefloor to bust a move or two.

The man saving Manchester’s city pigeons from ‘stringfoot’
Daisy Jackson
A man has been patrolling the streets of Manchester to save our city’s pigeons from a condition known as ‘stringfoot’.
We all walk past hundreds of the birds every day in the city centre and they often get a bad rap – but one now-viral TikTok account is hoping to change all that.
In a series of heartwarming videos, one man has been heading out in his free time to treat pigeons afflicted with the dreaded ‘stringfoot’.
It’s a common sight now to see pigeons missing toes or walking around Manchester on deformed feet, which is often caused when the poor birds become tangled up in foreign matter.
Sometimes this is bits of string, plastic, thread, hair or a number of other things usually dropped by humans.
But with quick intervention from Tom, he can save these pigeons from a life of limping around town.
He’s been heading out armed with bags of seed to lure groups of pigeons close to him, before carefully catching the afflicted animal and carefully cutting away the material around its foot.
He uses things like stitch pickers to remove the thread, before cleaning up the pigeon’s foot with saline spray and antiseptic and gently releasing them again.
Tom said he started helping pigeons ‘sort of by accident’ when a bird with stringfoot came up to his flat.
In one month alone, he was able to catch and treat 15 pigeons, saving them from infection and injury.
And the account is getting lots of love and driving awareness for stringfoot and changing people’s perception of pigeons.
One person wrote on one of Tom’s videos: “We did pigeons so wrong as a society. Thanks for helping!”
Another said: “Pigeons Are NOT TRASH, they are a birds, who need help like cats, dogs and every living animals.”
And someone else commented: “These sort of videos make me cry because we’re so mean to pigeons, this might be the first time someone’s done something kind to them.”
