Does anybody know if Collection 2000 will still be 342 tomorrow? And if so, has anyone used the Dazzle Me Dust, and what's it like?

I'm a bit rubbish at doing eye makeup but having been inspired by the likes of mrsbb and ikkle I'd like to try out some looks, and love all the colours of the Collection 200 stuff. I just want to know if it's really any good though!

Thanks :T

I'm a big fan of the Dazzle Me dusts - think I have about 9 of them - my tip for application is to sprinkle some on the back of your hand, and use an eyeshadow brush to apply - best to build the intensity of the colour up slowly (and have a big brush on hand to brush off any excess - DON'T USE YOUR FINGERS TO BRUSH IT OFF :whistle:)

Talking of Collection 2000 - there's an advert in the new mag to create a disco type look using C2000 products - the ad says there are 9 of the glitter gel eyeliners available - I've only seen 6 of them so far (of which I have 5 ) - it looks as though there's a pink one now from the pic in the mag - if anyone sees this or either of the other two new colours, please shout in my direction.

Also, has anyone seen the new No7 Breast Cancer makeup yet? Think it's a lip gloss and a blusher/highlighter set? Looks lovely in the mag

Thanks BTVB. Would you also recommend the glitter eyeliners then yeah? i tried them on the back of my hand and they looked really cool, but didn't know how easy it'd be to apply to my eye lol! i can manage almost ok with the 17 soft liner pen, but not sure about liquid eyeliner.

do you know if it will still be 342 tomorrow as I'm hoping to spend my points on some of the dazzle dusts, and the more the better!

Went liverpool street tonight - managed to get 8 TD Mens wash for free, left a few on the shelf there, sacrificed a couple of vouchers for it, but didn't want to be greedy. Also no7 old lipliscious reduced to £4 so free with no7 TS, should have grabbed more, they had about 30 there, and i don't want to pay for anything with the tillspits! Ah well, got a new mag, nervous about my points now, got £105, not signed up to parenting club, but used the TD 200 point vouchers about 7/8 times.. although a few mags were someone elses card they got for me, and I paid for a couple as well as SA reconised me and knew i'd had one, pay £1, get £2 back.. still bonus, lol.

Collection 2000 glitter eyeliners are fabby! Got a few, wear them everyday with silver eyeshadow, always keep some cotton buds in my bag as they take a little while to dry

I find these really easy to apply (for the rare odd wonky bit just have a cotton bud on stand by to dewonkify ) and they look good on their own, or team with an eyeshadow or Dazzle Me dust.

I'm not sure, but I have a funny feeling C2000 will go on 342 tomorrow - it seems to alternate between 342 and a special promotion for a particular product.

Hi everyone, just wanted to say a huge thanks to all of you who post here – I've had some great bargains over the last week and all thanks to you! My fave has to be the ts 1p glitch but I only had the guts to do it once though and that was at the ss till! I can't believe that I used to just throw the till spits away!


This is my first post here and it's my third attempt as the other posts others just disappeared! It took me a week to read the last thread and I should have been revising for exams – you lot are a bad influence (but I like it! - lol!).


Oh I nearly forgot – were people still being given the no 7 voucher from the till today as the offer doesn't end til the 14th? Do you think I'll get some on my shop tomorrow?


Thanks in advance xxxxxxxxxxxx

Ooh I saw the No 7 Breast Cancer lip gloss in Cheshire Oaks earlier on today. I tried a little of the tester on the back of my hand and it seemed quite thick but not heavily coloured at all. It's probably not meant to be coloured tho'. LOL. Trying to recall how much it was but my brain is tired. :rotfl: If it starts responding again I'll post on here.

<stamps feet> I want a new mag!!

Becky,
Hope your despair reduces when you use your pinkies although I found it very frustrating having spits with no decent stuff to redeem them against.

All I want to know is what on earth is Boots gonna do with any TD left 'cos I certainly wont want it. Unless it ends up in clearance.

Evening ladies! Popped into the Castlepoint store (Bournemouth) as its open till 8 & I had some till spits to use by today..... Shelves were bare of anything 'free' so ended up getting some Sanctuary stuff for a few quid each time but kinda miffed that they're holding wipes etc back until the till spits expire. They were practically the same Monday night too so not just a one off!
Hope you all managed to get loads of goodies with yours. Thank you again to those who post glitches & updates, it's very much appreciated xxx
