Hi I went for a 'make under' in Debenhams today and the lady was lovely. She sent me away with a card saying everything I had used as my MIL intends to go back and get my Xmas pressies there. A couple of question:

Is the starter kit worth it? My only issue is she used 'Warmth' on me and looking in the mirror now I have got home it makes me look orange! Can this be replaced by anything in starter kit?

Also she wrote that I had Mineral Veil on, now I've looked on the Internet I can see that there are four shadesMV available? Do I assume that I have the original MV on?! On line I quite like the look of the Illuminating MV....the pots are so expensive I don't want to make a mistake on colour...
Also in rush in morning so not sure about putting three powders on, foundation, warmth and then MV too....seems like a faff!

She out the original medium beige foundation powder on me now I wonder if I should have tried the matt version. If I go back will she think I'm a crazy woman! Feel guilty as she already spent half an hour on my face. Also my face feels prickly, am I reacting to something in it do you think?

I loved the eye shadow pot she used, it was 'heart' - very pretty. Also loved the flawless definition mascara.

There was a dizzying array of blusters, very confusing really. She out glee on, look quite brown though...

Loved the lip gloss - Spark plug.

Almost seems like there is too much choice really! End up baffled really.
Any advice anyone!

I got the primer, I think there are a lot of other primers on the market just as good or better. I don't worry about that now I use my moisturisers and primers and the results still look good to me

The best primer I have used is lanacane anti chaff gel for a fiver-same ingredients as the expensive megga bucks smash box oneGrin
