    My numbers

    17 UU
    6 TA

    9 INS

    2 NBI

    I bought eye cream, Cleanser, 4 x PCMC and conditioner. I needed the Cleanser and conditioner. The eye cream and PCMC were great offers.

    I spent £38.98 which I'm amazed by.

    I didn't do so well with my PP list though.

  • I have 1 UU - Eylure Dybrow kit WDBA, I really like this is so much more convenient than going to a salon to get my eye brows tinted and it's so easy to use. I do my brows about once a month and this kit has lasted about 12months


    I've almost used up my benefit blusher I really like the colour but I think I'll move to my old blush and bronzer over summer and almost got through my No.7 beautifully matte foundation but it's definitely a bit heavy for this time of year

    Ooh which Benefit blush is it?

    I've switched back to powder foundation too.

    Hi VALM it a powder blush, it's called dandelion. It came as part of a little kit and I through the packaging away when the other items ran out.


    I love my new under eye concealer, looks like touche eclat but it's from No.7, it 's cover up my dark circle beautifully

    I have dandelion but can't wear it at the moment as I have a tan.
