Hurrah! A used up:

Night night everyone.

I moved some furniture and fourn another handcream. I thought I'd given it away. I guess that's an own goal.

No ins, no outs, not nuffink - just a quick question (which will lead to a brain pick if there is someone!!) is there anyone on here who is (or whose OH is) a lawyer/solicitor/legal bod? Ive got a thing that I could use a sensible head to help with....


Hope you have a fantastic time evilsquid !!

No.
But I am VERY nosy and am now intrigued

The good - I passed on the LiB box. I'd love to try the Jurlique spray but the rest wasn't that interesting to me.

The bad - I had an epic FAIL in Boots two days ago. I went in to look at the Revlon pretend Chubby Sticks and the 'Red Mist' descended. I don't think it was because I had the attempted No Spend last month. I think it may be because I was really overtired (the reason I was in town was to meet a friend that I only see a couple of times a year for coffee and cake). I 'popped in' to Boots on the way back to the bus and must have been in there for an hour! It was very enjoyable (shouldn't admit that :eek:) and I chose carefully BUT it was an absolute fail as far as the challenge goes...

Ready? (I'll be on the naughty step after this. My first time over there...)

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain (no wonder I can never remember the name :rotfl:). I bought the darkest one (Crush) and I'm really pleased with it even though it pushes my appearance towards Gothic territory :eek:

Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Eye Liner - this has been on my wish list for ages. It lives up to all the great reviews

Maybelline Forever Strong Pro NV in Hot Salsa (490) and Really Rosy (202)

(Maybelline was on buy two get one free)

Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer (on offer) - if this doesn't break me out or irritate my skin then I may have found an HG! :j It doesn't make my skin oily (like PoreFessional) and it makes my skin look nice just by itself (very unlikely!) Will report back on this as it's good value if it suits you (27g for £8.99)

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair (1) - so far I'm very happy with this but I want to test it more thoroughly.

I have a list of things that I've read good reviews of and this concealer pops up all the time so I'm pleased to be able to try it at last.

All I can say is that it's just as well I rarely go into a Boots...:eek: (I don't know how you all manage with temptation being there nearly all the time )

Oh! I forgot to add that I swatched all of the Dior Addict Extreme lippies as this is what I might be saving my Advantage Card points for. I narrowed it down to two shades (Belissima and Paparazzi) but am saving one of those for when I actually deserve a treat. (I'm glad that I held back on buying one of those).

Hi Willowbee, well done on resisting the beauty box. Your haul sounds impressive. I love those kind of shopping sessions when you can browse and choose at leisure. Most of the time MrM is with us so it's more difficult! lol.

thanks for the heads up on the Maybelline offer. We are going to Boots tonight as Emma wants a waterproof mascara (sorry she says NEED). Maybe will indulge in another product since the offers on. Unfortunately, I am already in holiday mode.

50% off YC would have been my downfall

Me too. maddiemay you have will of steel! Fortunately most of the new fragrances are fruity ones and MrM doesn't like these as he says they all smell of berry and get stuck in the back of his throat IYKWIM. Glad we don't burn them now though if they attract mice. I am so scared of mice.

Hello from New York!

Well, as predicted I have been in sephora and I'm def on the naughty step BUT all I got was what I had planned to buy and one extra set :j

Also, two things I was going to buy got put back for not being that impressive in real life!

Was going to avoid it from now on but I'll have to go back. I got some tweezerman really pointy tweezers as they are £22 in boots and $22 here but DH has decided they are better than sliced bread and stolen them declaring them amazing for Ingrowing hairs. They are not going near my face now :rotfl:

Ooo lucky you evilsquid, have a fab time. I always love it when there's another excuse to go back to Sephora or Ulta. x

3 ins,Decleor minis from hotel we stayed at over the weekend whilst helping DS2 move house.....believe me after 6 hours cleaning I deserve them:rotfl:

uu - FCUK Polished Body Spray, wba if they still do it when I need some, lovely fragrance.

Evilsquid - hope you enjoy NY, it is a bit surreal isn't it?

Willowbee - your friends seem to have very exciting jobs.

Have some ins from yesterday, went a bit Elemis mad:

2 x Frangipani Monoi shower gel
1 x Quiet Mind Bath Elixir
1 x Skin Nourishing Shower Gel
1 x Quiet Mind Temple Balm

Naughty step for me I think. If I don't buy anything on holiday this month the above should be it.

Feeling very happy. I have not bought the Lib box, I did not buy the Dec tsv yesterday and I am not interested in the tsv today either
