I really like the soaps I bought up the page there.

I've nearly used up my entire stash of samples and GsWP! I decided a while ago to buy much less, and only stuff I really "need". I didn't replace my vitamin C serum when it ran out a while ago as I wanted to see how I got on without it, but I recently used a free sample of the Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C serum and I was reminded how much I like it. It's very considered purchase as it's really expensive, but I found it for 25% off, so I did buy that. Also my skin is really unhappy and dehydrated, so I've also ordered another bottle of DE B-Hydra after a few months of seeing how I went without it. I'm glad I cut back for a bit because now I know that I definitely do benefit from using it :blah:.

I’m now a full convert to Trepadora curl stuff and have just ordered the conditioner. I need one more pot of goo to come back into stock and I’ll be happy. It all smells amazing. I just need to get my proportions right on the styling glaze.

In my quest to find cleanser I also picked up the Supergoop unseen sunscreen - this felt amazing on my hand so I hope it’s that’s good on my face, The Inkey list retinol and a Huda lipstick which seems like an absolutely pointless purchase right now.

Olive I really want one of Lisa Eldridge's new lipsticks but seriously, what is the point? But I still do.

I’ve had exactly the same thought process. :lol: I want velvet dragon - however I only wear make up if I’m going out out, so haven’t worn any since...February, I think? :lol:

Velvet dragon is beautiful, Hobbes. Which one do you want Bean?

I ordered a lipstick (blush) and a couple of her new glosses (muse & go lightly) - I'm justifying it by wearing lipstick more when I'm at home/ have video calls and if I go out for walks. I started lockdown doing this and have had a few months just wearing lipbalm, but with winter arriving I want more colour on my face!

I also ordered some of her lipsticks but mainly because they're all I wear now, and a few lip glosses. Payday treats. I'm going to wear them during the day while wfh.

I treated myself to two Lisa Eldridge lipsticks last year (velvet morning and skyscraper rose) and they are so beautiful! I just wear it around the house and on the school run!

Eta I just ordered velvet dragon. I'm out of ideas for things I want for Christmas this year so someone can give me that.

Made the mistake of trying a sample of the Zelens foundation. It's properly lovely and glowy and lasts well but £62! £62!

This is why I have a stash of unused samples. What if I love them?!

Those lipsticks look gorgeous. I haven't had a new lipstick in a while. I would just wear it for myself if I had to! Is there anywhere one can try them on or are they only for sale from her website?

It’s cute, but probably not. Not bank breaking though if you need a lift.

Make the glitter bits into stocking fillers?
