Picked up this today for €2 in Heatons.



Never used it before, hope it's good.

This is my favourite body moisturiser ever! Must go stock up in Heatons!:D

Has anybody tried the new Garnier B.B. Miracle Skin Perfecter cream?

Is it any good? I have pale skin and was thinking about using the light one.

I haven't tried it yet but I have ordered a free sample of the light one (only one available luckily enough!) from here, might be worth trying out before buying it

Yep, last week and i actually hate it. If you want mine to try (its medium though) ill happily send it to you. Its my least favourite product ive bought in a long time. Overhyped, overpriced and awful. Ive downgraded it from 3/10 to 0/10.Theres literally nothing i like about it.

Superquinn have testers of it out at the minute. Try before you buy.

I have it in light, and it's just ok. I do need to use some powder afterwards as it is quite shiny. Don't think I'd repurchase, but I'll definitely use it during the day until it runs out. It's good in that it saves me time in the morning, so I tend just to wear it when I'm going to work. As said above, maybe try get a sample before you buy! Wish I had tbh

Thanks for the replies.

Definitely going to sample it first before I purchase, and have just ordered the sample from the website you linked me to, MissFlitworth, thank you

I'm surprised with the negative views....clearly I'm a total victim of advertising!!

Picked up two Essence eyes hadows today.

Got this today:

It smells lovely and I was on the lookout for a nice smelling body moisturiser, this is also the same scent as a Laura Mercier one that I had been coveting but at 3.99 its alot cheaper than their 60 euro one!

hey, am new to this thread but long time lurker!

Where did you buy this cream? Let me know how you get on with it as it sounds nice from description!! (and delicious...)

MiniSquish

I bought it in a Matt O Flaherty's pharmacy. If you live in Galway I got it in the one beside Brown Thomas. Haven't used it yet. Keeping it for tomorrow, I'm off and am going to have a day of pampering

Tried these on the other days and my eyes were stinging me

Shame as I love the colours, a nice brown and a nice champagne gold which would have a made a gorgeous base colour, gonna try them again and see, hopefully I can use them.

Anyone else have this problem?

I have the copper one and the darker grey one and haven't had that problem with them. I've even used them on my lower lash line with no problems. Very strange!

Got a No 7 €7.50 voucher today so going to pick up that cloth cleanser thing!

MiniSquish

Got this today, find it very good for the price. Not sure which colour I have ( I haven't it handy at the moment), it looks like a purpley pink in the tube though but comes out a nicer paler pink:

And finally started a MAC palette today instead of constantly buying individual eye shadows, got Shroom as an all over base colour and I always go for browns so I got Fig. 1 as a nice purple colour to be a bit different.

I think I am allergic to MAC's Fluidline. I posted in The Chatwalk a few weeks ago about getting really sore, red eyes. It hasn't happened in a while but yesterday I wore that eye liner and now one of my eye lids has a sore lump on it. I hadn't worn it recently which is why I think it could be it as opposed to my mascara etc.

Anyone else ever found this with that eyeliner?

Oh dear! I've never had any issues with Mac eyeliner, but a Rimmel liquid liner burned the crap out of my eyes.

I'm a long time lurker, but yesterday I bought Urban Decays naked Palette and felt I HAD to share this with you all! LOVE it!

I ordered my first ghd last week and it finally arrived today!



Actually, 2 came! Looks like there was a mistake in the shipping, so I have 2 for the price of one, snap!! Just going to make sure they don't charge my credit card for it... I may have to send it back, though. Here's hoping they don't notice :pac:

I was so excited to start curling my hair but it looks like I need to practice. It's not as easy as it looks! I'm not a big hair straightening person normally but I think I got a good deal on it and I like the versatility it offers.
