L'oreal Sublime Bronze spray-on tan: I actually really like this product. It's easy to apply, you just spray it all over your body (as the name suggests!). I'd be careful with the bottoms of your feet, as they can go bright orange due to excess product settling on the floor and then walking on it, but other than that, I found the application a dream.
It gives a nice, natural tan. I've never been asked is my tan fake but I've had loads of comments on how lovely and healthy I look, have I been on holiday etc., so it's great in that way. If you want that really brown, girl-fake-tanned-for-a-night-out look, it's probably not for you, but for a really natural looking tan, it's perfect.
It also doesn't fade and leave skin looking patchy and horrible, though I do exfoliate a lot, so it could be down to that either. I would buy this again.
Soap & Glory, Flake Away: I am not a huge fan of Soap & Glory in general, as I prefer products unscented or just with less over-powering smells but I love this scrub. I bought it in the airport because it was the only travel sized scrub there and I needed one as I'd just had my legs waxed! I ended up buying the full-size when I came home because I like it so much.
The smell is lovely, though a bit girlie and sweet for my preferences but I can see past that because the product itself leaves my skin so smooth and it doesn't scratch like some scrubs can. Soap & Glory is also on 3 for 2 in Boots at the moment!0 -

You absolute legend! I've been moping for the last two months that I don't have a Superdrug near me and they don't deliver to Ireland so I couldn't get the undressed palette. I never even thought to check if MUA had their own site! Ahhhh gonna buy everything! 0 -
Undressed Palette
I have this and it's great!!
I also have a few of their trio eyeshadows which are great too but I prefer their palettes just because of the pan the shadows are in.
The compact powders are as good as any other imo and they do good primers too- I wouldn't choose the primer over the gosh one but for the price of it it's so good.0 -
Dry skinned gals are going to love this foundation, I've been mixing it in with my bb cream and it gives a beautiful finish.
Really hard to finish a true, soft dark brown pencil, this is beautiful and has a handy sharpener in the lid!
Finally I'm hoping this is good, will try it out tomorrow! Love my primers!0 -

Can you let me know what they say please? I won't get into my local Boots until tomorrow or next week to checkI was actually thinking the same thing. I must ask when I'm in next - I suppose all they can say is no!
The offer on the revlon foundation is finished on 1st October I think.0 -

I've never tried Sigma brushes before and I've been looking for a decent travel kit so I'm going to give these a go on my upcoming trip. They feel very soft and the handles are very sturdy. I'll probably fit a few more of my own brushes into the case as well.
Edit: I meant to add, Sigma are now opening a store at the Mall of America (Minneapolis, Minnesota) which... I don't know how often you guys get to Minneapolis but I'm particularly excited as my family are from there and next time I visit I can check out their entire stock in person!
Feck, 6 years too late for me! was in Mall of America 6 years ago AND got lost there, almost had to check myself into security for my work colleagues to come and collect me from the lost and found! 0 -

Got myself a Babyliss Big Hair for my birthday & so far am loving it! Takes a while to get used to, and I think if there was a video of my first attempts to use it and the thing basically running out of control up and down my hair and burning my eyebrow (all my own fault) I'd never live it down.
I have really thick, really heavy hair. Sort of like this
Which is prone to flatness at the roots because of the weight of it, so sometimes if I straighten it it looks very flat & limp even though I've enough hair to make a full sized Cousin Itt replica with
The Big Hair gives me a lovely full looking blowdry with nice smooth hair, so the straightener effect without the Professor Snape effect. The only thing with it is that it is quite time consuming to use (although if you had less hair than me it probably wouldn't be) and the first couple of times you use it you will feel like lobbing it in the bin0 -

Got the Urban Decay Naked foundation tried on me today in Debenhams. Looked grand at the time, but I find it now a few hours later to be a bit cakey looking and the wrong colour. This is the palest colour. I got a sample so I'll try it again anyway and see how it goes.

The curse of having pale skin, even the lightest shades are still too dark for me. I use this Natural Collection powder in neutral translucent on top of my bb cream and it makes everything a lot more natural looking.
