My skin is quite sensitive so when I have tried a product, my face just looks worse.. But I do like make up, but not foundation I have never wore it, again for some reason it makes me look worse,but I love lipsticks and blushers and eyeshadows... I have tried Pupa, Smashbox, and I am wanting to try Benefit! I am always on the look out on QVC for make up.. lolPriscillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15107870598329088494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-16822958006983563222009-11-06T17:12:53.057+00:002009-11-06T17:12:53.057+00:00Ha ha it makes me laugh how we are with our MAC ob...Ha ha it makes me laugh how we are with our MAC obsession!!!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13650868499241363707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-1374209574756613072009-11-05T22:58:34.290+00:002009-11-05T22:58:34.290+00:00Not sure how I missed this post but had to join in...Not sure how I missed this post but had to join in with the comments! I'm with Sally, buy most of my beauty stuff from QVC as there is no risk involved. And guess what I've been using for the past 5 years, yep Liz Earle, I just love her cleanse and polish, never get flaky skin like with other cleansers. And I could sniff her toner all day long!!<br /><br />As for make up, am kind of a minimalist gal, never wear mascara, I know shock horror, but I really don't get on with it as am a terrible eye rubber so always end up looking like a panda ;o) Clinique are one of my fave brands for make up along with Benefit, to die for packaging! Never had a makeover, maybe I'll try one when next in Cambridge shopping. xxLoloDesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447160729744325553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-82720565340306688562009-11-05T19:57:35.308+00:002009-11-05T19:57:35.308+00:00How funny!

Being a goth in my teen years - I have ALWAYS worn eye make-up ... but obviously not gothy any more! :) Last weekend I chucked out my odds and ends and treated myself to some brand spanking new Loreal eyeshadows specially for blue eyes! They are brilliant - and I have had loads of comments like "ooh - are you wearing new make-up?" It has definitely perked me up a bit.<br />I am currently having a break from my Clinique skin care regime as just got so bored with it! Am on the look out for something new ... and recently got my mum some Liz Earle bits for her birthday - might give it a go myself!<br />xVictoria Plumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16329904718509130535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-79747974770395643612009-11-05T15:05:56.517+00:002009-11-05T15:05:56.517+00:00Some really good tips there Victoria, I have a rou...Some really good tips there Victoria, I have a routine, but forget some days, and am always switching products.

Although I don't look young, young my complexion is in good shape. I think the daily use is the secret. There are a lot of good products out there. Of course, since I am retired, I don't wear make up every day. Boy am I lucky.

Funnily enough, those are the days I end up feeling crap because I catch sight of myself in a mirror and think "My god!

My skin is very sensitive..day moisturizer, night moisturizer, cleaning fluid, exfoliation treatment. I used to buy Dior beauty products, since I discovered Just natural products (www.justuk.net - I've a beauty consultant who comes home whenever I need). I don't care about the money for this, because I know that it's worthy for when I will be older. No make up for me, I'm a disaster :)Michelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17013022672253622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-1715761945106651092009-11-04T10:09:12.412+00:002009-11-04T10:09:12.412+00:00I have always been strict when it comes to a facia...I have always been strict when it comes to a facial routine. I used to have a facial done once a month at a beautician but since qualifying as an Aromatherapist 9 years ago, I tend do my own facials. <br />I love the routine of it and take pleasure in it. I use natural products such essential oils and a range of beauty products from RAW GAIA www.rawgaia.com (I love their moisturisers and other stuff too) I am through with the likes of Chanel, Estee Lauder. The results were never as a good as the natural stuff and you paid a lot more!<br />My make up bag was dramatically reduced a couple of years ago. I love Bobbi Brown & MAC.<br />Good luck with the weight loss. I have a sweet tooth and rely on walking a lot to help...<br />Take care<br />Isabelle xSuzy's Vintage Attichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15355297827117557882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-26542299160603803362009-11-04T09:53:13.191+00:002009-11-04T09:53:13.191+00:00Hi Victoria

Its so lovely to use and reasonably priced, and after spending FORTUNES in the past on all sorts of expensive anti ageing creams I think hers is one of the best ranges there is. I've been using her for a few years now, and love the fact that if you buy from her directly it always comes gift wrapped with a free sample too. Make up wise I love Bare Escentuals, I used to buy it from America on hols, but now they do it in the department stores I love it because its so easy and no technique really needed - ideal for me - and apparently its good for your skin. <br /><br />I also buy a lot of skincare and makeup from QVC because they most of the brands there now (decleor, elemis, liz earle, bobbi brown etc etc) and you can try them and if they don't suit your skin or even if you just don't like them you can send them back and get a refund under their 30 day moneyback guarantee. Well worth trying I think, I've sent things back a few times no problems. They do really good value TSVs too.<br /><br />You look like you've got some fab products already though and what a great make up collection! Super organised as I would expect!<br /><br />Sally xSallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05826160305471445366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-81009498403825569662009-11-04T09:45:59.756+00:002009-11-04T09:45:59.756+00:00I am pretty guilty of that, partly due to the fact...I am pretty guilty of that, partly due to the fact I have to stick to the same as my skin is just so sensitive. I loved Decleor and especially the Hydra Floral but it was too rich for me, so a small fortune was totally wasted as I'd bought the whole kit and kaboodle too!! I must admit I cant walk past a Chanel counter...oooh,my weakness is their lipgloss!!<br />Have a good day<br />BH xBlueberry Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02027525105331677753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110031732026681006.post-89064963357986634312009-11-04T07:10:19.363+00:002009-11-04T07:10:19.363+00:00I'm so lazy, I never really bother with any of...I'm so lazy, I never really bother with any of this! I brought some face cream in Aug but it's hit or miss if I remember to use it. I use Body Shop face wash & that's it, my mum's the same & she still looks good for someone who's 67 so it must work! <br />I do have a tiny CK make up bag with some Benefit make up that I brought 3 years ago. I hate going to the make up counter, I looked like a clown when I came out!<br />Hopefully I don't look my age so I'm sticking with it :) xJosie-Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02433168852596727326noreply@blogger.com
