    I use Barry M Dazzle dust which comes in a fantastic range of colours and is £4.50 per pot. They are very versatile because they can be applied dry and smudged, mixed to a paint with water for extra accuracy and drama, mixed with vaseline for a gloss or with moistursing lotion for a subtle finish. You can also mx the colours. I know you can get eyeshadows much cheaper from C2K etc. but the Barry M dazzle dust is very highly pigmented and has fantastic staying power.


    I have recently changed brands to the Primark version of Dazzle Dust (Pack of 2 for £1) and I have to say they are just as pigmented and stay on all day (And night should you so choose - I forgot to take mine off the other day and it was still in place when I got up). Of course they only have limited colours (about 6 that I saw). But very good for gifts or for overhauling a make-up collection with a whole new set of shades (Still love my red Barry M dust though :D).

    My tips would be:

    1- Use coconut oil as a moisturiser for face and body. You can buy it very cheaply in chemists, it has no scent, gives a gorgeous sheen to the skin (Good for nights out) and can be used as a face treatment. Once a week I put some on my face and leave it overnight, rest of the week I use olive oil on my skin. I've found my laugh lines, faint as they were, have gone and my skin looks more even and scars are fading faster.

    2- Check out the Boots thread on Grabbit if you're planning a purchase, someone may know of a way to get it cheaper or of whether a product you haven't used before is worth it. Saved me a bit of money!
