They are both called 'You Better Work' and have both been binned as they smudged on me. The length defining one was less smudgy so would be the one to try if you are not prone - they claim to be waterproof and gym-proof.

She has TOTALLY changed her tune on their products since they started paying her :)).

I've just ordered the Omorovicza Peachy Micellar cleansing pads because I had a code for 15% off at Cult Beauty (it was only a personal one or I would share it):

They had me at "peachy" so I hope they are :love:.

Yes, I thought it was odd that she now endorses them all of a sudden..

I haven't, but that blurry photo isn't very reassuring :look:

They do sound nice, but I don't really need anything fancy for my skin which makes me want it all the more! I might try the Clean Sweep cleanser to make a change from Ultrabland.

I thought I'd let those of you who use liquid liner know that the NYX one is brilliant. I think it's better than the Kat Von D and Stila that I've used for years and it's much cheaper.

Noted! I'm a Stila person but a cheaper equivalent is worth investigating - thanks.

That. And yes. She looks fab for her age but I was a bit perplexed how she thought that would work commercially.

I just (very belatedly) discovered the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer and I think it's the best concealer I've ever tried.

:lol:

I got some samples. The Clean Sweep full works cleanser is lovely but I think too rich and scented for my skin. I would like a full pot of the Sweet Cheeks cleanser but I'm feeling so guilty about buying anything in plastic at the moment I don't think I will get it.

Oh and I had a sample of Kora Noni Glow Sleeping Mask in my Space NK delivery. It made my skin incredibly oily.

I am really liking the LRP Hyaluronic acid serum which is more expensive than the Ordinary one (like 3-4x the price), but so much better and less sticky as well.

I’ve also been enjoying the Becca skin love glow elixir stuff, and the Kiehls avocado eye cream.

I've gone back to Kiehls Avocado, and it's lovely. I also got suckered into Glamglow and I do wake up with soft skin, not sure that it glows though.

I have some Glamglow samples and it pills horribly on my skin.

Something has caused my skin to break out and I’ve had the horriblest, angriest spot on my head. I’ve never had this before and through a process of elimination I think it’s the Drunk Elephant C serum.

I’m also using the DE umbra sunscreen which is just ok.

I’m finding that I’m really struggling at the moment as my skin is really dry and feeling quite sensitive.

What else are you using, olive? I don't like that sunscreen at all unfortunately and only use it for when running, but US sunscreens are decades behind EU ones (:cry:).
