Great Cosmetics Cost Cutting Hunt

bambolina_2

Hi! I have just found out about the "Frownies" product but I am a bit worried to try it on. Does anybody knows what happens if you stop using them? I have the bad feeling that the "ironed-out" wrinkles would get even deeper....Maybe it is just a silly thought but I would like your opinion. Thanks!

Hi

Just to confirm, threads and foundations privacy policy is on the checkout.
Ive ordered from them a few times and never had any problems, really nice, professional and saved me a packet.

I know what you mean though, i always look for terms etc before i order anything.

Thanks

I'll keep an eye out for the Johnsons and try that next. Have you tried the Johnsons cream on your face? Bit nervous about trying it

They had a facial one in my superdrug yesterday.

I know most folks might already know about this, but I visit the States about twice a year (not that you'd all know that bit!) and always stock up on shampoo, conditioner etc in Walmart or Target. They're amazingly cheap compared to what you buy here (Aussie S&C is literally double the size and half the price because of the exchange rate). Also, I always buy Clinique in the duty free, but in the USA not duty free here. I bought their large clarifying lotion for about £11 in Boston duty free and it costs twice that in Boots.

can anyone tell me if they know of a website which sells "md formulation" products at a cheaper price, its a cleasing product which contains glycolic acid and is great for acne and you do not have to tone or exfoliate, but i can only buy from my beauticians at £45 for a 50ml facial creame. I hope someone out there can help.

Try https://www.essentialdayspa.com - they are based in Canada so their prices are much cheaper than the UK and they usually include freebies in your parcel. I have used them loads of times (mainly for ordering Decleor & Phytomer products) and I have never been hit with a customs charge, and the service is always great. On a couple of occasions when I've had to email them with questions they always reply really quickly.

Has anyone brought stuff from perfume4u.co.uk or powderfuff.net?

Its the Decleor products I'm mostly interested in

The prices seem to be pretty cheap on these 2 sites, I think they are actually the same place really as the prices are the same and the layout of the site is similar. But on the Decleor uk site it warms to be carefull buying from internet sites because they might not be the real item or out of date ect. They recomend various salons and department stores instead to be on the safe side.

I've emailed the perfume4u site but had no reply yet, I've asked them if they:

Can confirm they are the original decleor items,

Are not damaged, faulty or substandard in any way,

If they are in the original sealed containers and packaging,

And do they have thier dates on,

I have to get quite a bit of Decleor so it would cost quite a lot I don't want it to be dodgy,

All the photos look a bit amateur (you can even see a radiator in the background of some) and they don't give any address (just a phone number). Looks a bit iffy to me.
