Hello ladies,

Firstly a question posed by my friend, and I vaguely remember a recommendation here for Rimmel or Maybelline product. She's after a face primer which evens skin tone and is helps makeup last longer. Any suggestions please?


Mingle I hope your exam went well.

Rosemary that is stressful to say the least, I hope it gets resolved soon

Bev - no picture?? :eek:

Hugs to everybody.

I use the bareminerals primer and it is good and the smashbox one is also good but I bought them in a kit from QVC - probably get them on ebay or beauty sites though

Can't do photos of nails:o. I tried to do photos of my stash back in January and made a mess of that - don't know what I did wrong didn't want to ask DH as he would question why I would want to upload a photo of all my make up and toiletries:o:o

I googled the guy meets gal-veston colour and it looks really lovely! Actually... I ended up on a page of all the 'texas' colours and I like them all


Im sure there's a tutorial on here somewhere for uploading pictures..Do you know where you got stuck last time?

Rosemary I hope the uni stuff gets sorted out with your son. I guess it depends on how deliberate/serious the plagiarism seems as to how lenient they are.
That is extremely odd about it not being pointed out before. Markers on my course have been strict on it from the start despite the course having barely any extended writing bits.

No more INs since I last posted but some OUTs :j
Naked Radiance Revealed (?) Shampoo. Probably WNBA, struggled to get used to having no lather and my hair never felt properly clean, so now onto Avon Daily Shine.
Gok Gorgeous Scrub. Hmmm, if its available again this Xmas in a set then possibly WBA. It does smell lovely and its nice and scrubby. Onto FCUK Pure, my fave
Vera Wang Princess oil from https://www.perfume-parlour.co.uk gifted to my DD as she fell in love with it and as I have 92 perfumes I felt I could spare it:o
FCUK Polished Gift Set to friend for her birthday last Saturday. She popped in on Weds evening and said is lurrrrrvely:D

I think thats it. Its my birthday tomorrow but I'm not expecting any toiletry INs, though DD is taking me somewhere that I suspect (hope) may be pamper related :T

No more Ins but's that's only because my Boots store hadn't received my order that was supposed to be in store today so it will be June before I'm back in town to collect them
Hope everyone has a nice holdiday weekend

My mother did this once, it took her four years to use everything up :rotfl:

I decided to use up a boots pre holiday body buffer which i had left nearly full......... after using it i knew why i hadnt used it! couldnt get it off! felt like i had rolled around in the sand!
WIBA? no! there are much better scrubs out there, namely the Sanctuary body wash that i finished today! WIBA? absolutely...... no wait .... must not buy any until ive finished my sanctuary stash!

still not been near the no 7 counter.......

ive had a £25 boots gift card in my purse for ONE month!

beginning to see a little more space in my dressing table drawers...... yet to start on the cupboard! any progress is good progress!:j

That is quite shocking Rosemary - It kinda makes me wonder are the tutors reading any of the assignments?

Fingers crossed for your mum's op Rachael.

I have binned a Per Una eye shadow in crush. I went to use it this morning and thought better of it as you put it on with a wand and it was looking clumpy. It must have been 7 years old and never been used.

A big UU 300ml Dove Body Silk body cream tub. WIBA? Most definitely yes. This is a gorgeous light cream, a nice compromise between lotion and butter that goes in really well. For my legs I'm continuing to use the Aldi 10% Urea Body Butter, lovely thick stuff, takes a fair bit of rubbing in but think my pins are appreciating the daily massage.

A little UU The 75 ml Pantene Aqua Light conditioner sample. WIBA? By the time I get round to needing to buy conditioner again they will have probably taken it off the market! I've seen a lot of negative comments on the net, but I have the super-fine hair it was designed for. So yes, I will buy it in a year or two ... it worked well for me.

I did an online beauty survey and I am being sent some body lotion to trial, which is great. I'm quite excited about this, this is better than cash incentives that take months to build up points for. In the meantime my Dove cream is being replaced with a tube of Nivea Soft under PRCP.

Happy birthday sofababe, have a great day!:bdaycake:

Have a lovely holiday EH, hope the weather is kind.

Have one uu today, finally have finished the beautifully delicious honey and almond body lotion, this was a 500ml size and took forever to use, was lovely though so wba eventually. I have decided that 500ml in anything except bubble bath is too much for me.

I have the hand lotion and it's taking forever to use up! Smells lovely though.
