...?

Mine is so far the Clarins Body Glow lotion, a lovely body moisturiser with a hint of summer sun lol, and also Loving Cliniques High Impact Mascara for my ageing lashes. What about you?

I have just finished a 21 day session with Soap & Glory's Wish Upon A Jar, a collagen boosting moisturiser. I'm so impressed - lovely, sparkling skin. YAY!

Decleor facial oil and moisturiser

Gillybobs · 29/01/2011 18:39

Rimmels new Lasting FInish 25 hr foundation. Everything Ive been looking for in a foundation for 20 years. Medium coverage, dewy and really lasts all day. And Tesco currently have it for 1/3 off at £4.66. RESULT!

Kiehl's Ultra Facial cream

Chanel Pro Lumiere - I never wore foundation, found this in friends bathroom and was amazed how great my skin looked. Expensive but use it only when I feel like a lift.

Gillybobs · 29/01/2011 18:47

Simply, do you find the Prom Lumiere lasts?

I thought it made my skin look amazing but was gone within an hour : (

lololizzy · 29/01/2011 18:49

is your skin a bit oily, Gillybobs? mine is and it wasn't great on mine. had to use a lot of powder to set it.

Gillybobs · 29/01/2011 18:53

Hmmm yes prob is on T zone. Was sad as I thought at first it was gorgeous cover but seriously didnt get past 10am

Not goo for my face - but my best beauty buy is my Babyliss Big Hair rotating brush. Having thick, coarse, wavy hair which requires a lot of TLC and daily sacrifices to the God of Damp Weather I now have shiny, straight, bouncy hair. Am a very happy girl.

NotWoozy · 29/01/2011 18:54

Babyliss Big Hair, if hair things count. If not, Clinique Superfit Foundation. I found the Chanel Pro Lumiere (at twice the price) did not do even half the job of the Clinique.

Soap and Glory Glow Job.

Usually by this time of year my skin is dry and flakey - very attractive! I've been using this and I look smooth and lightly bronzed.

FaffTastic · 29/01/2011 19:00

3gorgeousboys - S&G Wish Upon a Jar seems to have great reviews. Did you use it instead of moisturiser or underneath it?

KenDoddsDadsDog · 29/01/2011 19:48

MAC Pro Longwear Foundation.

HettyAmaretti · 29/01/2011 19:57

Udder cream.

Don't laugh, best body / hand cream I've ever used.

5GoMadOnAZ650 · 29/01/2011 20:03

I have a full tube of soap and glory glow job as when I tried it I looked like David Dickinson Shock where did I go so wrong? I really need to try wish upon a jar.

Guacamole · 29/01/2011 20:06

Benefit Bella Bamba blusher is gorgeous!

mum295 · 29/01/2011 20:59

Another vote for the Big Hair!

Meglet · 29/01/2011 21:42

I think it will be my Rapid Lash serum. I've been using it for 5 weeks, it was an Xmas present, and my lashes are looking a bit thicker now. Apparently it takes 8 weeks to really notice the difference.

expatinscotland · 29/01/2011 21:44

Garnier Ambre Solaire spray tan stuff.

Aitch · 29/01/2011 21:48

big hair fo sho.

and i am loving my Plum perfume still... it's just one of those fragrances that develops even nicer notes throughout the day.

Maternelle · 29/01/2011 21:49

Big Hair. Changed my life.

Binfullofmaggotsonthe45 · 29/01/2011 22:00

Cetaphil cleanser. Get it over the counter in Boots or the local pharmacy. £7 a bottle.

My skin never feels dry or tight and it cleanses amazingly well.

Apparently a well kept secret amongst make up artists and plastic surgeons.

Until I blabbed!

MAC strobe cream. Under a mineral powder foundation. Amazing.

Maisiethemorningsidecat · 29/01/2011 22:01

What's strobe cream?

traceybath · 29/01/2011 22:02

Botox Blush [winner of shallow/vain award]
