Magic Beans

[Turtle Bean]

Clinique are selling Chubby Plump and Shine lip gloss for £9.50 in the small department store. I got one in Goliath Grape. It's very nice, I will put it on the daily lipstick thread.

[Ella]

That sounds very nice.

I’m really loving the compact foundation I bought. If I look like a tit in it, nobody has said, anyway.

I’m gradually working my way through my box of samples, and have just started a small tub of Kate Somerville Exfolikate Glow Moisturiser. It contains glycolic and lactic acid together, and I must say it’s very tingly, so one for night time use. I can tell the next morning that I’ve used it. It might be a slightly cheaper alternative to Good Genes (but still not cheap).

MrMcLip just remembered a John Lewis gift card he didn’t think he’d use so I’ve bought the Origins Ginzing tinted moisturiser for the summer.

My magic beans for the moment: I've been using this Ameliorate body lotion (at the wrong time of year really cos you're supposed to use sunblock with it) and my ravaged body looks distinctly less middle-aged. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Ooh this sounds very good, thank you. I have real problems with my skin as it gets very dry plus I have such curly hair causing ingrown hairs.

My clinique heroes box came! It's lovely. I used the TTDO balm last night.

[Luna]

I really like TTDO. It really does get everything off.

[Figaro]

It’s really good, isn’t it.

I’ve got the Pixi peach undereye corrector stuff and it’s good but it doesn’t go on as smoothly as I was hoping. Maybe I should mix it with something. I’ve also bought the Ordinary serum foundation to try and it is really lovely.

There are some Sleek fans on here aren't there? I have been sent their new pallette to review, Goodnight Sweetheart, which looks nice.

[Hazey_Jane]

ooh that looks nice Lils. Those colours will suit you well

[Lily]

I was rather chuffed by it!

[Ella]

Because I’m a total sheep and will buy anything recommended by Hali Sughes, I’ve just taken delivery of some Vita Liberata Body Blur and a mitt with which to apply it :ella:. Make me flipping use it, somebody :)).

[Turtle Bean]

I got some Vita Liberata fake tan in a Tilli beauty box last year. It was amazing.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I bought the Origins Ginzing solely because she said it was good, and it is. She knows her shit.

[Squirrel]

It’s really easy to use, Ella. Just rub a bit onto your legs to start with.

[Glint]

I bought this some with Ndulge points and I’m impressed with it. Pale enough for my milk bottle skin and enough coverage that I don’t feel exposed with minor blemishes.

I’ve tried my new mascara with the 3D-printed wand, and I’m not blown away so far. I was in a bit of a bleary hurry this morning though .

I see Clinique has discontinued the Flutter to Full Lash mascara that everybody loved :lol:. Slow handclap for cosmetics companies.

[Luna]

I tried out full to flutter the other week and loved it. Went to buy it in Boots and it had gone. Meh. I think it's available online though.

[Ella]

They’ve confirmed that it has been discontinued.

[Pippedydeadeye]

Buggers.

Apparently the “Fit” one is good & tubing.

[Lily]

It's because it was unsafe, as it has something in it - plastic with a different name - which made it unsafe for washing off with water. Hopefully they will sort the formula out and reintroduce it a la Kevyn Aucoin. I'm going to try the Lash Power.
