Ooh thanks glowgirl
I'm coming to the end of my last 17 concealer (funnily enough, 1 of about 4 I got the last time the AC machine in Boots was dishing out vouchers for this concealer
) I'm off to Boots tomorrow so will be checking the machine and keeping my fingers crossed
DFW no.554 - Proud to be dealing with my debts :TDAVID TENNANT CAN PROBE ME WITH HIS SONIC SCREWDRIVER ANYTIME...:AFLYING THE FLAG FOR THE CAMBRIDGE BOOTS TARTS :happyhear0 -
Update: Thanks glowgirl, I managed to get 7 concealers today, plus a couple of eyeliners - managed to get 3 vouchers out of the machine (fastest finger anyone?
)
And on the subject of oily skin - I absolutely love Morrisons Knock Your Spots Off range, especially the moisturiser. This is completely non greasy, sinks in quickly, makes my foundation easier to apply, and best of all only costs £1.99. Absolute bargain

7? your such an MSEr:rotfl:I gave mine to dd yesterday to try out and it didn't do much for her dark circles at all, do you have any specific application tips? I'm going back to Boots on Monday and I'll see if I can get another voucher as I want a nail varnish (another fab product) from No 17 that I forgot the other day.
I shop in Morrison's anyway so will have a look at the skincare, I do like to chop and change as my skin gets used to products very quickly and reacts, I always go back to Boots Essentials though, it works better then all the expensive products I have tried, as my oiliness changes at various times of the month I can switch the products around to suit, I put eye gel all over yesterday as I was having a oily day but on dryer days I use the moisturiser in a bottle, top tip for oily girls, never use a facial cream that comes in a jar;)Thank you for this site MartinThe time for change has comeGood luck for the future0 -
I have super-oily olive skin and I've found the OCM worked really well at minimising it

I could also recommend Lily Lolo's transparant matte finishing powder as it seems to keep me looking non-shiny for much longer than any others I've tried...
I'm yellow toned too and it sucks, wear the wrong colour and I look like I'm desperately ill!0
