I’ve finally caved into the barrage of FB ads I’ve been getting and have ordered a couple of those Wonderskin Wonder Blading lip masque things, I’ll report back how successful they are. I can’t keep normal lipstick on so it’ll be interesting to see how they stand up.

I did a search on this as Instagram are heavily advertising it to me. Did it work?

I tried the new Hourglass liquid blusher today. It's bloody lovely - you only use a teeny weeny bit and it looks fantastic. It's £38 and the brush to apply it with is £48 :lol: I am sure there is a dupe somewhere.

I bought a new RT brush for foundation, I think it’s called the bubble brush. Anyway, it’s nice.

I have also bought some Pattern Light conditioner in TK Maxx to try, it’s a curl brand I’ve wanted to try fur a while but quite pricey.

[Lily]

I caved and got the Hourglass stuff as my "payday" treat. I love it SO MUCH I want it in all the colours.

Late to the party but I have just used Color Wow dream coat for the first time and so far I’m really impressed!

[Estrella]

I didn’t go for my planned massage this weekend so made a wee Mecca order as a payday treat instead.

[Pippedydeadeye]

Report back on the perfumes please!

I did a restock of stuff I use a lot of this weekend. The LRP Anthelios moisturiser that Emma_p put me onto, the Uriage Xemose body balm, Superdrug Simply Pure serum.

I also got the Bobbi Brown taupe shadow stick and a Cica cream with zinc.

[Estrella]

I will. I tried one on instore yesterday and loved it but couldn’t remember if it was Molecule 01 or Escentric 01. It smelt like incense from church on me and brought back memories of a Catholic childhood! But I want to try them all before I commit $$$ to a big bottle.

[Little My]

Was that a good thing or not, Est? :))

There's a big Sephora sale on right now. I may have a bit of a splurge before all the nice xmas gift sets are sold out, and get some xmas shopping knocked off the list.

R wants to try The Ordinary acne treatment, so I may get the starter kit for that to see how it is on her skin. The joys of being a hormonal teenager. And I need a new Laneige lip mask - they have an eggnog latte one, but I'm worried to buy that without sniffing it first and I can only see it in full size.

[emma_p]

The egg nog one isn’t that nice. Liv and I have sniffed all the testers and I can confidently say the candy cane one is the best. (I bought it with 20% off a few weeks ago for her stocking )

[Little My]

I trust your judgement on that, thanks! The latte component was putting me off, and some of them have incredibly strong fragrances. I like the berry one I'm nearing the end of.

[Estrella]

It was strangely nice, LM!

I’m wearing Molecule 04 today. Both of my children have independently told me I smell really nice.

I'm going to review this. It does work, and it is the best long lasting lipstick I've tried. But a tube lasts about 3 weeks if you wear it every day, which seems a bit outrageous for me seeing as it is not cheap. I've had some of my standard lipsticks for years. I found a Mac one recently that might be the same age as N. :lol:

[Estrella]

I don’t love the Evo curl cream I got up there (but it was just a mini I bought so no big loss). It’s a bit crunchy. I did a restock of some skincare staples and added these newbies too. I’ve been using them for several days now and really like them so far.

[Hazey_Jane]

This stuff is very good so far. My teeth feel really clean after using it

[Ella]

I have that too, it’s beautiful.

it is! have you (or anyone else here) tried amy of the marbled blushers?

[Pippedydeadeye]

I bought one for my sister, and she likes it.

[Ella]

It lasts a really long time too. I just gave my palette to a beauty loving colleague and she was delighted!

that's very kind of you. hey were impossible to get in the UK right after their launch, so I bought mine in Hawaii. I know how that sounds.
they were cheaper over there, so I wish I'd bought the large palette with the marbled blushers

[Ella]

Late to the party but I have just used Color Wow dream coat for the first time and so far I’m really impressed!

this is so good, isn't it? keeps the frizz away. must order some.

I have a few new things (some from a set), but can't remember them
haven't been doing much slkin carelately.
mention of Tata Harper above has reminded me of how nice their products are. I loved their rollerball facial oil:

I bought one for my sister, and she likes it.

that's very nice of you. not too much highligher in it?
