Magic Beans

[emma_p]

Oh I just saw I can buy it in a massive tube rather than a silly pump so I'll do that. I guess it'll last ok unlike mascara.

[ParisGal]

Oh I bet it's the one my mum has also used for about 40 years too. Is it this one?

Mum wrote to them and it's not discontinued! Ingredients supply issue due to Brexit, but should be back in stock by end of April :))

[Turtle Bean]

Oh good news. I shall tell my ma.

[Estrella]

I bought this lipstick which is apparently a dupe for Pillowtalk, these face masks, this fake tan as the recommended shower St Tropez stuff has been discontinued here (this stuff is very dark for a gradual tanner and my feet are a bit patchy so far) and some Laroche Posay sunscreen (the fluid one which I’ve never used before and it’s brilliant)

[Ella]

Do you have a UFO, Est?

I wish I could wear lipstick.

[Estrella]

I do, yes. I got it on special at Costco and have been using the day masks but got these ones to shake it up a bit. I almost added the collagen boost ones to my basket too. Maybe next month.

I used Squeak’s pineapple thing last night & my skin feels so smooth afterwards!

[Ella]

Ooh, I think I did know that actually, now that you mention it. I haven’t used mine for ages now, but it’s worth trying the other masks as I think they are even better than the day/night ones.

[Ella]

DOES IT SMELL PINEAPPLEY, PIP?

[Estrella]

Ooh, that looks lovely.

[Pippedydeadeye]

DOES IT SMELL PINEAPPLEY, PIP?

No, not that I noticed. It did a weird pilling thing (expected) and washed off to lovely skin.

The Max Factor stuff I bought upthread is also HIGHLY recommended.

[Ella]

That’s a shame, but it sounds nice anyway.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I’ll sniff it again!

[Turtle Bean]

I've got something called Rapidbrow to make my eyebrows grow thicker. I expect it is the very definition of magic beans but we'll see.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I’ve been using Revolution Kombucha eyebrow stuff for the same reason. I think it’s helping a little.

I started using this last night!

[sally maclennane]

I went to the Glossier store in Covent Garden this morning and had a nice mooch around it. Of course, I then spent a small fortune :ella: I got Boy Brow, a Cloud Paint blusher and a Lidstar eyeshadow stick. I also bought their You perfume.

I also went to the Ordinary Store and bought their Rosehip oil.

[purple_dress]

Good haul, sal!

[Estrella]

That does sound like a good haul, Sal.

I don’t like the fake tan I bought up thread.

I’ve bought this shampoo and conditioner which is great but I need to wear gloves next time as I was left looking like I had Smurf hands. This serum also arrived today and I’m looking forward to trying it.

Have you seen any change Bean? I know it's only been a week but I think I already have additional brow hairs that I didn't use to. I think it probably also dyes the brow hairs that you do have, so they show up more, and this may be what I am noticing atm.
