    Anyone know a good tinted moisturiser that's not oily and that's quite fair?

    This is NOT a tinted moisturiser but a foundation, but its so super light, its almost like a moose.

    No.7 intelligent colour foundation.

    The light seems dark, but its not. The medium is great for olive skins or holidays in the sun. Never tried the dark, don't tan that well!

    I'm not a big make-up/product user but still like good looking skin
    best products are
    Clarins Gentle Facial Peeling leaves skin feeling wonderfully soft

    L'oreal moisturisers - one of few that doesn't affect my sensitive skin, I usually stock up on this at duty free

    Soap & Glory range - all I've tried have been great
    can recommend
    Heel Genius
    Hand Food
    Calm one Calm all Bubble Bath
    and the Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss is the best, lasts for ages and looks fab
    BOOTS have got 3 for 2 on this range now

  • I've just bought some foundation fro M&S. Its in the per una range. It was reduced to £3.00 from £9.50 so I thought i would give it a go. Is says it lasts up to 16 hours. Really liked it so have been back today & bought two more. They scanned at £2.00 each so an even better bargain.

    Also love Champneys super calm rescue balm. it's £5.00 for a tiny pot but lasts for ages.

    Hey everyone,

    My last mascara purchase was Max Factor Masterpiece which i really liked, but i'm just wondering if anyone has tried their new False Lash Effect? Is it any good??

    Ta!

    I got some M&S waterproof mascara sealers reduced to 99p each the other day.
    Are they getting rid of it all or something?

    Doublewear foundation - mix the liquid with spotlight toning cream, also by Estee Lauder for a lighter look or try the doublewear powder which is easier on the skin

    Estee Lauder Magnascopic mascara, not waterproof but nearly as good without the drying effect - have just tried EL Sumptuious mascara which comes a very close second

    St Tropez bronzer

    Collection 2000 Eyebrow pencil in Blonde - change the pressure when you apply for a darker/lighter effect - no underlying red tones

    Any Bourjois blusher

    Any juicy tube/mother pucker/Barbara Daly lip gloss

    Desert Island make up product - Doublewear foundation
    Desert Island skincare product - Freederm Gel
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    Favourite Foundation: Estee Launder Foundation Maximum Lighweight Foundation. Its oil free and has a SPF 15 and is wonderful for those who have scars,spots and blemishes. It hides them all brilliantly. Has been using it for over 14 years and even though my skin has improved vastly will not give it up. Just use less. £22.50 but worth its money

    I just started to wear Korres Multi-vitiamin compact for oil/blemish skin. Absolutely fantastic. Stops shine and nourishes the skin. Perfect over Foundation. Skin has never look better.

    I was'nt sure about mineral make up but compact powder is the business! Only need 1 application for the day. £17.50 get on line, Flagstore in London and certain House of Frasers stores.

    Hi Sarahsaver, congratulations on the baby! :D :T

    I love C&P too, as I've said elsewhere on the forum, and buy from QVC if it works out good value (or if there hasn't been a good deal for a while, I go to the Liz Earle shop in person, which means I don't even have to pay postage ;))

    On an entirely separate note, can anybody recommend a good everyday eyeliner and mascara for a very cack-handed person who often wears contact lenses? (me)
