Hi, I'm going to try the BOGOF offers to get the No7 GWP so I'm just planning what to get. I've been looking at the Lip and Eye screen but the details on Boots.com seem a bit vague. Is it suitable to be used to protect all around the eye or do you use it as an eye shadow?
Thanks in advance for any help.

It is like a tinted shimmer to it so could be out round eyes if you rubbed it in underneath there is not much colour to it.

Lol how strange, mine is not shimmery at all!!
Maybe I'm not putting enough on- I just apply one or two strokes all around my eyes and it doesn't show at all

It is quite shimmery so would prob look silly applies all around. I will probably only use mine on my lips ...sorry not much help!

For those who have Photobucket as the host for the pictures which are fab, keep em coming, I am not sure if you know but in the edit section you can select a listed size & one of the options is message board ( helps enormously I find ) saves cropping etc.

Just going to try posting some (some? ) of last week's shops, thanks for the info but I got a bit lost as there was a strange message from Internet Explorer. Will try though and delete if it stretches the page

the lip tint and blusher i bought are both covered in boots sellotape. i understand why they do this but it took me ages to get it all off the lip tint as it just falls apart and doesnt simply come off. and it has left the pot all nasty and sticky.
i really dont want to do this to the blusher too - do you think i could return it?? as it is sealed still??

Lighter fuel is very good for dissolving and removing the sticky left behind after label removal. It is also good for removing labels without damaging the package beneath, if it's packed in card. Just soak the label with the fuel, and in most cases, it peels off easily, then you can rub away any smears of adhesive with a little more fuel on a tissue, or piece of kitchen roll.
For removing sellotape, you have to let it soak under, and the tape will eventually lift off.

Hiya - not been on for a while had uni exams and just waiting on results, have finished this year so get results in two weeks!

just to add reduced s&g - i got for £4.50 "one night tanned" its 8.99 on .com
Its a spray on tan - looks a bit like spray on foundation - washes off straight after, its ok if you need a bit of colour for special occasion then just wash off

Just to add smells gorgeous too .com says

"Smells like: Bergamot, strawberries and mandarin, with floral and fruity mid notes, and musk, amber and warm vanilla".
