I think Bare Escentuals Well rested for eyes is one of the best under eye concealers I have ever used - you may have already tried it but it definately works for me.

I've had it used on me on a make under a few times. was one of those run to the nearest loos and reapply your own product moments.

i have really pale skin (I'm mac NC15) and my dark circles are really noticeable no matter how much sleep i get and what i use. the only thing that disguises them is proper heavy duty creamy concealer.

wow, lots of interesting discussion going on here
Evilsquid (I think, but there were lots of posts since ) Jacks_XXX uses a fair amount of Ren products and as she's back in, I'm sure she wouldn't mind extolling the virtues of it to you. She is another who is very anti nasty products.

Salesaddict, fill us in then, what's been happening to you in the last year? Did you manage any UU's? Did you manage to stop opening products as soon as you get them out of the shop? How are your children? You say you've had a lot going on, well, now we're here to [STRIKE]be nosy[/STRIKE] listen to you as you offload .

This looks fab but the vital detail was missing - what colour???

It's the "peppery" one. As it is quite neutral, I think it will go well with different outfits and I don't have this colour atm

Evilsquid, thanks for the information about various ingredients. I went through the beauty brains report and was confused as I was expecting to see the safety information on ingredients but didn't find any

Hello, I am going to join, I need to put my stash all in one room to count it tho, and I know there are a lot of hidden bits, like in boxes UNDER my dressing table!

Realised I have a £7 off no7. perfect and protect range.... i only have about 1/3 of my syrum left..... argh dilemma! Do I buy now and save a bit or put it off until I actually need it to have a toiletry free january lol

I would buy just because £7 is a lot of money to save, but when does the voucher expire?
IMHO £7 is too much to save just to have no toiletry buys in January.
Also Boots are giving out the £5 No7 voucher just now, could you get one of those, say with a mobile phone top up and then you'll have £12 off :T

Just found 1/5th of a 100g bottle of Lush's Happy Hippy left to UU.
It's grapefruity and I tend not to like those zingy kind of scents...
Shall put that at the front of the queue and use to wash my hair for the next few washes. Or might even use it as a body wash.
It'll be another UU I can declare then and another item out out and away. :j

3 UU

Bourjois Ultra Black Clubbing Mascara - WNBA, felt it was very clumpy!
Skin Doctors eyetuck cream 3ml - WNBA. It feels lovely and cooling on the eyes. I shall enjoy using the other one but im sure i could find eyecream cheaper. Maybe just stick to samples
Crabtree and Evelyn Lily Body Lotion 5ml - x2- WBA, but only if i found myself a job haha..........i have so many other body lotions to get through...although im doing quite well in that department

Evilsquid - I was leaning towards more natural ingrediants being better but then they said that natural products don't work as well.

On the other hand, just because something isn't proven by science to work (yet) that doesn't mean it doesn't.

Eek back to the subject! I've used up 19 trial size products over the week! I've learnt that I don't like all these samples! I don't want to be putting something new on my skin every 2 days, I'm also getting spookily low on products! I have 2 shower products, both being used and 1 (ONE!) shampoo but 3 conditioners!

I have quite a lot of fake/gradual tanners shover in a cupboard and I don't know what to do with them as I haven't used a tanner in months...
