Had a bit of a trauma today using the Mitchum vouchers :eek:
SA: we don't accept photocopies <pushing them back across the counter at me.
Me: they're not photocopies, I printed them from the internet <pushing them back, smiling winningly>
SA: I'll have to check with my manager <looking dubious>
Me: okay then <still smiling>
Off she goes...... comes back with a manager. They have a little huddle.
Manager: sorry, we can't accept these, they're photocopies.
Me: they're not photocopies, I printed them from the internet, from the Mitchum website <still smiling.... slightly manic by this point.... starting to get face ache>
Manager: <deep sigh> okay, we'll accept them this ONCE but we won't be able to accept them again.
Gah, what a palava. Worth it though for 45p for 3 deodorants
Will try another store tomorrow <practises winning smile>.
(ps. they actually all scanned no problem at all in the end, didn't have to be done manually - the SA's face as she saw the total coming down was a picture!)You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that

May I ask what you used?
i used 17 eye dazzle in sweet shop (I think its called this I could be making it up as I've not checked :rotfl: ) which is a pale lilacy purple as a base, then I used the purple out of the autum palette, virtually all over my lower lid to my lashes, apart from in the corner of my lower lid where I used the red from the autum palette, then I blended it so the colours didn't look seperate iykwim. Then I used No7 Eye Liner Gel in Majestic as close to my lashes as I could and then underneath my bottom lashes too, then I ran the brush I'd been using to apply the eyeshadow over the top of the liner. And finished with 2 coats of Dream Lash mascara in Jet BlackTreasurer and Co Founder of - The Smile It Won't Hurt Club
