I got a 10 colour custom palette and a blusher from Inglot for 51 euro (I have the 20% off card). I actually love them, the Inglot black gel liner is also the best liner I ever used it's brilliant
I got the Inglot YSM foundation think it was around 16 euro, I didn't like this I found it went very blotchy and the palest colour was far too dark for me.
I got the Rimmel 25 Hour foundation, it's horrible but there Perfect Match foundation was much nicer, still not the best but it's grand for the price.
I got Emani mineral powder foundation .. I love this defo one of my favourite foundations 0 -

Got a sample of the Clarins Hydra Matte cream the other day - it is amazing!!! It's like a primer (I compared it to the Gosh primer) and it is better than the Gosh primer, but it's also twice the price.
I'd definitely recommend the Hydra Matte, though as it's expensive, I'd personally use it for special occasions rather than everyday wear.:o
How much was it please? I have a MAC 190 and a Ruby & Mille brush and find with both brushes, I have to run my hands over my face to rub away any linesI got myself a stipple brush in inglot for putting on foundation, pretty sure its this 1: http://www.inglotcosmetics.com/27tg/products/567/571

Been meaning to post in this thread for ages!I got myself a stipple brush in inglot for putting on foundation, pretty sure its this 1: http://www.inglotcosmetics.com/27tg/products/567/571
LOVE it. foundation goes on so flawless compared to a normal foundation brush, no lines, its actually brilliant!
I have the MAC 187, similar to yours, and it is fantastic! The difference in my foundation is amazing. When I first got it I wasn't really sure what to do with it, but Youtube saved the day. I just dab the bristles in foundation and then stipple onto my face. Then I go in circular motions to "buff" it out.
The lipstick in the pic is Creme Cup by Mac. I got it at Christmas and I love it. Goes on smooth with good lasting power.
This scrub is great, and you can use it every day. My skin is lovely and smooth!
Brilliant eye make up remover! It even gets all Diorshow mascara off! I put it on a cotton pad and then hold it over my lashes and let it "soak" in, then wipe away, and finally get the excess.
Couldn't afford MAC gel liner so I got this liquid by Rimmel. All well and good, the brush is nice. Until a few seconds after my first application my eyelids started stinging! Ouch! Won't be using it again and am saving my pennies for gel! Might try the Inglot one.
I got a two colour Inglot Freedom System eyeshadow recently as well. I needed some good base colours, but the ready made pallets from Rimmel etc were quite expensive (IMO) for small sections of colour, and most had colours I didn't need. The Inglot was €16 as far as I remember, and of course I could choose my colours. I know I'm going to use one of the shades quicker than the other so it's cool that I can just throw out the empty pan and get a new one, and keep the other on. No need to half full pallets taking up space in the make up box. Looking forward to trying more of their products.

I recently bought the new maybelline gel liner and its great! I posted on here about it in february. Its called Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner 24h, i have it in 01 intense black. Its normally 11.99 but was on an introductory offer of 8.99 in boots.
I love it. It comes with a nice brush, not the crappy ones you would normally throw out. Its well pigmented and it lasts really well on the eye, it doesnt bdge once you apply it and its dry.
So to sum up my rave: its amazing, well priced and comes with a brush: i recommend it!0 -

I second this! I've been using it almost every day since I bought it a few weeks back and it is amazing and once I put it on it doesn't budge for the day. Lovely stuff, and only 8.99 in boots atm!
I had 22 euro sitting on my boots card and I was in need of a new foundation (I've been using a No 7 one, but I felt it was too dark and I wanted a change) so I went in today and got Loreal's True Match Foundation in rose ivory. Just applied it there and it's really nice! It doesn't feel heavy or oily or anything and it's actually pale enough my ghost-white skin. Twas only 15 euro. Annoyingly I didn't have enough on the card to get the powder and concealer as well (3 for 2 deal on) but depending on the staying power of the foundation come payday I'll get them as well 0 -

I've heard that if you apply your moisturiser or primer with the same brush you use for foundation it stops you getting those lines. Never tried but might save you the cost of a brush 0 -

It was €30 in Inglot. I've heard the MAC one is nice too but it's a bit more expensive0 -
Tried that, same thing, had to run my hands over my face.:(I've heard that if you apply your moisturiser or primer with the same brush you use for foundation it stops you getting those lines. Never tried but might save you the cost of a brush

I got it too, I am so surprised how good it is!!
Loving Rimmel Lipsticks at the moment, only getting into lipsticks so don't want to splurge till I know what suits and Rimmel has a good few gems!
Also liking the rimmel foundation, it's a bit tricky to apply, I use a damp sponge, but no worse then colour stay and no where near the price, wish the lightest shade wasn't so dark though, only suits me with tan 0 -

Dya know what id love -a nail varnish "colour palette" type thing.I chop and change my nail varnish all the time and sometimes by the time i get around to one colour i bought 2 mths ago or whatever its gone gloopy,no matter what brand it is. A set of mini pots would be great like a set of 5ml "daily minis" would be great 0

OPI have already thought of it.
There a few collections. I have the ballerina one and love it. I'm the same, I like to try new colours so this size is perfect. Great for travel too!0 -

I'm not sure if you can get it in Ireland actually. I live in the states so didn't even think. Although if someone really wants a set I'm back home in Galway at the end of the month. I could bring it over for people. I just got the Urban Decay naked palatte from Sephora too! Also got Benefits Stay Put set for $10. 0

i went a wee bit mental shopping today...but on a student budget :P
i got a decent liquid eyeliner call Yes One! still need to get the hang of it but it seems ok
Rimmel Lipgloss "Royal Gloss" shade 611 sugar glaze...its kinda pink/peach seems to work well
some random bronzer i came across that was a lovely colour (and it was 50% off :P)
revelon "Sexy Bedroom eyes" its a powder crayon for the eyes i had it back in Ireland but forgot to take it with me when moving over here. its really good but you have to be very careful with it as you could end up with an actual black
A lovely pair of tweezers that only cost 2 quid
a flat shadow brush that was cheap enough
and 2 eye shadow pallets...i dont have any and im after gettin into eye shadows lately
just need some dark powder to match the foundation and tan i use for going out then im sorted 0
