    i have just recieved one of my orders , the make up pallete is nice, but no way on earth is it worth anything close to £25, so im glad i got it for free :)

    BS really do exagerate the original prices don't they. I think the set will be a nice way to try a few different BS make-up products but agree that the £25 price is way off. Thankfully though with the BS you never have to worry about what the RRP is because you never have to pay it:rotfl:

    I ordered the mineral foundation with my 2nd order, as its something I would need to be buying soon so it seemed the more MSE option:) Just hope I like it now, I normally don't order foundation online without trying instore.

    sorry, my third product was under £5 so that's why it didn't work. I can't see the papaya lip butter anywhere. I want some teatree wipes but they're £4 lol

    The papaya lip butters seem to have been removed from the site which is a shame as its really growing on me the more I use it. It just reminds me of opal fruits:D

    Re the skincare offer you can get the vitamin e wipes for 50p with the offer if its wipes you're after?

    Sorry I was so vague, I have worked out which item over £5 I want, and I do want one of the teatree wipes, but I was looking for the papaya butter because it's only £2 so it would make my order cheaper. I don't know if my son will use the teatree wipes, he's fussy about smells, so I didn't want to buy 2. I may do anyway though :)

    Oh no they cant discontinue the Papaya lipbutter, i loves it. I actually take it out my handbag just to smell sometimes lol.
    Recieved the makeup set today :) I wouldnt have paid the £25 for it, but I think its absoloutly beautiful, no gordy colours seeminly good quality items, and a lipgloss in a shade I have wanted for a while :D Also a lovely large mirror. Also the lipstick which looks like lipgloss is a lovely item too.
    Recieved the conceller and it isnt what I thought - dont know what I thought it would be lol - so going to return it to Bodyshop and see if there prepared to let me swap it cos its in its paper still :)
    Deffinatly worth the £10 spent.

    Totally agree with you about the make up set. It's a lot smaller than I imagined (but really, thinking what's in it, that was me overestimating.) Also my first thought ws hmmm wouldn't pay £25 for it, but when I think of what's in it, compared to inividual items, it is good value.

    What I regret ordering is the puff at £3. That's way overpriced. I wish now I'd paid more and got a better product, not the cheapest one..... The Lip gloss I got as my third item is lovely though - and for £5 excellent value.

    Thanks, OP. But I really must resist next time :p

    Got my lip butters today (think I ordered Tuesday morning). I never got a email saying it was sent, for those in the same boat. Just tried on the cherry lip butter, and have to say it smelled and felt nice going on, but it's a bit glossier than I imagined. I've had it on just a few minutes and I can see what people meant about it making the lips start to feel dryer after use, not sure what I think about it yet but it was nice to try it for a low price!

    I do wonder if it was designed to make your lips feel dryer soon, so that you'd keep reapplying and use it up faster? This is something that seems like you'd want to put on every 5 minutes if you wanted to stay moist!

    Well I have just spent the last 10 minutes cleaning the mess the envalope left behind, does anybody else think those envalopes are discusting? They go everywhere and make the product dusty!

    yes, it makes my lips dry too but it's just so yummy! maybe they want us all to think 'oh, my lips are dry' and buy their lipscuff :)
