    feel like im getting my boots mojo back today (it has been a while):hello:

    went to little boots in Ellesmere port and got no 7 say perfect foundation compact in almond normally £12 odd for £3.18. They had a few left.
    If it has tyres or testicles, it's gonna give ya problems..

    Re: the No7 foundations. I've found that the shades seem to differ between the liquid and solid foundations when they go on my skin. I can only use Blonde in the Stay Perfect compact, any other colour or the liquid foundations look orangey on me no matter how light the colour, I guess the ingredients differ and don't react well with my skin chemistry. I usually stick with Maybelline foundations as I find they don't look orange on me.

    I can't go Bootsing until Saturday now, I hope the Stay Perfect compacts are still going through at the bargainous price by then, cos if they aren't.......

    Thats exactly the look my daughter likes :rotfl::rotfl:

    I wouldn't mind but the colour recommended by the No7 SA really suits her :confused:



    Sticks fingers in my ears and clamps hands over my daughter's eyes :D
    Go on, you know she's worth it :rotfl:

    Does she have her own Boots card yet?

    I think I may have had a reaction to the No 7 Compact foundation. My eyelids are slightly reddened but also there are what look like really tiny pimples (can't think of a better word, they aren't red like spots, more white-ish :confused: ) that look like they're underneath the skin on them.
    UGH!!
    It's the only new thing I've used so will let it go (hopefully it will!) and try once more in a little while (just in case Ive eaten something Im allergic to :rolleyes: ) but if it happens again, I will be taking it back 'cos I understand from other posters that if you have a reaction you can exchange/get a refund.
    Just thought I'd warn people with sensitive skin/eyes that there is a potential irritant in them.
    I am a bit :rolleyes: too 'cos I really like the compact and was planning on getting some more!

    Anyone else with a weird face today? :rotfl:
    A few peeps have said that they get tiny white spots with the P&P serum after a while. It may be that if you use it.

    PS My face is always weird :rotfl:

    Afraid not Angie - do you think Boots are mad? :rotfl:

    It's a small black compact mirror, with a small black drawstring pouch. They're probably not even to everyone's taste, and the pouch isn't as cute as I maybe made it out to be lol, but for 70 something pence, I'm not complaining :D hth x

    I don't seem to have any problems with the no7 stuff. Time delay, Roc and Rimmell make-up I have to stay away from though.

    I've just started using my No7 New Ivory liquid foundation - it looks very natural on my skin, but I really have only used a tiny amount (2 pumps of the dispenser). Its wearing well so far, and no spots/reaction.

    I had a horrible reaction to the Roc retinox range recently, and bought a shedload of TD moisturiser with the wrinklies - so hope I don't get a reaction to them :rolleyes: . Luckily I also have a shedload of No7 moisturisers as well :T .

    Thanks geordie_lass,
    Actually I did get those white spots when I tried the P & P so I don't use that anymore. This looks a bit different though. :confused: I have what looks like one black eye in the making! Just need a corner to hide in but can't as the dog wants a walk and has no mercy.:D

    Surely they wouldn't have the same miracle working ingredients from the P&P in the lowly compact?? :eek: :D Just my luck.....unless I'm just destined to be allergic to all No 7 cosmetics from this moment on......in which case Mr B you better come up with some different products the £5 voucher can be used for! LOL

    Re: your PS, :D , I thought that when I wrote it. Not your face 'cos I don't know you. Mine. :p
