Still making my mind up on the vitalumiere by Chanel but really fancy some other lovely bits.

Already have Touches Eclat but could do with starting from scratch.

1st link no work

Nbg · 19/03/2006 13:33

I'm not sure what colours to go for now I've coloured my hair.

Always go for brown and creams on eyes and neutral lip colours.

Right I'm buying it.

Just going to check out that Rimmel eyliner.
My SIL had one from the body shop which sounds very similar to that but they don't sell it anymore.

glad you like the clinique eye stuff

if you wear coloured shadow you can put it on over the top and it makes the shadow shimmery and stops it creasing or you can wear the nude one on its own for daytime natural look

cod · 19/03/2006 13:39

whats the eye thing like though

nailpolish · 19/03/2006 13:40

Nbg · 19/03/2006 13:41

Nbg · 19/03/2006 13:43

Just looking at it on the YSL site.

Do Strawberry net do free p&p? If so it's £3 cheaper than in boots.

OP posts:
nailpolish · 19/03/2006 13:44

its free unless you want it next day i think

takes a week for free p and p

Nbg · 19/03/2006 13:47

Ok so far I think I'm going for
Chanel Vitalumiere
YSL eye pencil (although the rimmel one is £7 cheaper!) Think I might go for that greeny colour too. I have green eyes and chocolatey coloured hair.
