No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in Feb

Gaz23

not quite in line but if anyone buys mens tesco deoderant its down to 50P form 200ml from 95P.

Cheapest one out there on the market.

I was about to recommend that one lol! A good trick is to go for a lighter shade than you normally would to brighten under your eyes, you can then put powder on the top to match it to the rest of your face

Which one, the Boing? I bought this (some time ago) because I went to a Benefit counter and the sales lady put some on me and recommended it for dark circles! When she did it, it looked so much better! I can't seem to get it to look like she did - need to practice and will use your tip. Thanks.

LBM means light bulb moment btw

Welcome newbies.

Lucky people going on holiday i hope you have a good time.

Valm - Happy belated birthday.

I will have ins next week as I have made a little order on Boots, they are things I needed/wanted and the offers were very good. I ordered 2 x La Roche Effacler Duo - £13 each or 2 for £15, I have been trying to replace my tube since Christmas but it has been out of stock everywhere (not just Boots - everywhere). Also Tresemme is on 2 for £5 so I ordered 2 x serum at £4.95 each I think or 2 for £5 and a masque at £5.50 each on the same offer.

Now I know this exceeds my £10/month spend so I will have to make that up for 2.5 months - boo hoo.

We haven't heard from KiplingMonkey for a while - hope she is OK.

Ah right, that's not in the abbreviations on the first page.....:o

No I meant the Garnier one, I find it's very good!

Ah ok - I bought it when it was on special offer somewhere. Maybe I bought the wrong colour or just need to practice with it a bit more.

VALM - belated birthday greetings, lovely pressies you received.

UU 15ml Balance Me Cleanse and Sooth Face Balm. WBA at some point in the distant future.

UU 15ml REN Glycolactic Peel Mask. MBA left skin really soft and plump and does not seem to have caused a breakout.

Idiot of the week award must go to me:o Couldn't work out why nail varnish would not come off whilst using dip in pot bought from S"perdrug, to find I had bought the one for nail biters!! I have emptied it out, let to dry and will fill with nail polish remover later, eye test required?

Welcome to newbies, great place to hang around here. For myself, I have not gone on the wagon, still get a fair few IN's, but they are considered now, not bought from boredom or feeling the need to have something new, I may be worth it, but I have realised that the high does not last very long. I am slowly getting through the less loved things and really enjoying using more luxury items, no more pink rose candles here.

Have a good weekend, not many hours left now.

When I visited the Benefit counter to try out Erase Paste it was recommended to me by the SA that I take some product on a brush, put it on the back of my hand and then dab it little by little from my hand on the brush to my eye. Maybe this technique could be using with the Boing?

What under eye concealers do people recommend? I am thinking about buying the YSL Touche Eclat one but wondered about other (maybe cheaper!) suggestions. I have horrendous dark circles under my eyes, not really any bags but I often look like I have been punched in the face!!:rotfl:

I don't really view this product as a concealer, its marketed as a highlighter.

I wouldn't want to wear it on its own with my eyes anyway! I mix mine together with a bit of that collection2000 concealer everyones raving about (I'm not mad keen on it but it needs using up) which seems to work quite well, otherwise I pat it over whatever else I've put under my eyes for a bit of a lift.
