The price isn’t awful, is it? Report back if you try it! I nearly bought some a couple of days ago, but I’ve just bought a massive Emma Hardie, so I really shouldn’t.

I'm trying to go fragrance free on all my skin care stuff now, so it will be next on the list. I love the ren one but it is quite strong smelling.

I've been using up a sample of a Dr Barbara Sturm Hyluronic Acid serum and have been marvelling at how nice it makes my skin look. And then I looked up the price of a full size. £230. :twitch:
It's upsettingly good isn't it!

I noticed that the new Emma Hardie light gel cleanser was on the M&S website for £40 instead of the RRP of £34, so I dobbed them in to the Emma Hardie team, and they’re making them change it right now :)). Cheeky buggers.

I bet they did it deliberately because it’s exclusive to them for now.

Yes! I am so upset it's so expensive. I'm glad the sample is quite generous however.

I've bought huge amounts of good from The Ordinary and now I've lost half an hour every morning as I spray things at my face. I also got it all wrong, buying the strongest retinol first so I've had to go back and get a different one to start with. I love their Caffeine under eye thingy and I have noticed a difference and I am also loving The Buffet. :))
In Pizza Express you can get garlic bread with cheese and tomato. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but that's a pizza.

You probably should, that seems like a clear sign to me. :))

Don't need that just yet but I am hovering over Protini. But then I'm also interested in the new Ordinary serum and the Elf oil that Sali Hughes, I think it was, recommended.

Not pretty but I used these Superdrug peeling socks at the weekend and they have worked like a dream. Highly recommended.

This is relevant to my interests. My feet are horrid at the moment and I can't stand the idea of someone touching them so the socks may be a good option.

I used Footner a couple of weeks ago and it was amazing.

I bought Elf Hydrating Primer a few weeks ago, and it makes my make up look so much better. The only slight problem is that it goes on quite wet, and takes a minute or two to soak in, before you can apply foundation on top.

I have one like that. I put it on and then go do something else. Teeth usually. I keep it in the bathroom for that reason.

I've been buying sport mascaras in the hope of finding something that doesn't smudge - an eyeko one and two from essence that i just saw on BBB. I'm hoping the essence ones work as they're less than a quarter of the price for more than twice as much!

I also treated myself to a lovely nude Becca lipstick ( which I saw on AMR) called sorbet.

First purchases of the year!
