Was running out of mascara, so went with more of the same:
£19.50 in Boots, not too bad at all
Had been using it for a good while, it can be a bit fiddly to apply and a demon to remove, but it makes my long (but naturally fair) lashes look really good.0 -

Picked up a Soap and Glory mini face massager in Boots yesterday. It was a total impulse buy, I'd heard nothing about it before hand. It's fantastic, it's not harsh at all (it actually feels kind of soothing to use) but it still cleared any hard to remove dead skin from around my nose and below my lip (areas i'd usually find hard to exfoliate properly).

When I saw the box in Debenhams I thought it was an enhanced version of the original.. I was thrown by the 'Double'.. went and bought it in my excitement only to realise it's the one I already have but with a trial size version inside..
Not to worry, it's good stuff all the same and will be used

Have been using this combo for about five weeks now,
I'm not entirely impressed with the range. I've been using it as per instructed on the internet somewhere and I've felt it irritated my scalp a little (I have a veeery sensitive scalp with quite bad psoriasis). So for the price tag I'm quite disappointed and won't be repurchasing it.0 -

These are quite popular in Asia. I got one that I got back at home and I love it. And I completely agree. It's not harsh at all. It feels more like a massage than exfoliation. But it helps to cleanse your skin better. Just don't expect a deep clearing exfoliation.0 -

I completely agree. I only tried the shampoo but I was so disappointed. Such a waste of money. Don't believe the hype. It did nothing for my dry hair, except making it drier.0 -

Just bought this a few days ago in Debenhams as my skin has erupted over the last fortnight. A huge improvement after just three days of use. Strange medicinal smell from it, but it's the kind of smell that suggests it might just do its job!
What is this product called? I can't read the text in the photo. Is it a spot treatment or a concealer?0 -

Had Illamasqua's Hollow for a few weeks now. Really like it as a contour colour but need to pick up a dedicated contour brush.
Also been using a sample of Urban Decay's Naked Skin foundation. Really, really love this stuff. I have combo-oily skin and it lasts all day on me with a bit of powder on top. Decent coverage, I'd definitely say more than YSL's Touche Eclat foundation, and it can be built up to above medium coverage. Nice semi-matt/semi-glowy finish (less dewy than the YSL). Flawless finish with the Expert Face brush too 0 -
On holidays i bought a few eyeshadows and a lip marker. Its all from kiko, its cheap enough tbh. The eyeshadows were all 1.90 and the lip marker was 6.50.
I cant for the life of me remember what the numbers are. Ill edit it in tomorrow.
Edit: from left to right: no. 119, no 173, no 170 and no 118.
They are pretty good, they stay on and are not too heavy on the eyes if that makes sense. Very light weight.
The lip marker is fantastic, its a coral colour no 102 if i can remember. The coulour lasts for hours. It is easy to apply but tricky for the top lip so a lip brush helps greatly.0 -

Love Kiko, their skincare and eyeliners are also amazing It's a pity that the nearest shop to us is Westfield in the UK though

Finally got my hands on Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, and holy moly. Now I understand why it's such a cult product. And so cheap!
Also picked up one of Bourjois' new offerings, Colour Boost Glossy Finish Lipstick in the shade Peach on the Beach.

hey ladies I used to be terrible for buying random beauty products that I read reviews of online etc always wanted to try them out myself but had kind of stopped that for a while as I was away travelling for a while and had to save my pennys etc.
I just read this thread for the first time the other day and I have been so bad since have gone to boots yesterday and today and picked up lots of bits
based on the recommendations here I've picked up the real techniques expert face brush, the stippling brush and while I was at it I decided to get the setting brush Got the new rimmel mascara, got the collection 2000 concealer and seriously considering splashing out on the estee lauder night repair serum.
And then I got a few more items while I was there... rimmel nude pink lipstick, a rimmel vinyl lip gloss, light pink rimmel nail polish, maybeline baby lips spf lip balm the list goes on... I may have to ban myself from reading any more 0
