Sorry, I'm wondering about trying it but I don't know if it's worth it.

Yes I really like it. There are a few little issues - firstly, things go out of stock a lot, which is frustrating when you've found something you love.

Secondly, the limit on buying can be irritating, especially wrt skincare. Other than that, I really rate it.

I particularly like JeJu overnight moisture infusion thingie, basically a night cream, very good. Also the vit C capsules, again really good, bit stingy though (stingy as in ouch not mean!) I bought a japanfusion prep thing, can't tell what it does really - bit like a toner I guess?

Make up - One powder wonder is amazing, really wierd as its translucent but seems to even out my skin tone, not sure how. Brushes are good, particularly the foundation buffing one, and the blusher angled one. I bought a palette with highlighter,bronzer, 3 eyeshadows etc, its ok, the little blocks of colour are too small and close together to get a blusher brush in there really, and the powder is too soft so you get too much on your brush.

Liked the vanilla candle.

Sorry that was a bit long...

Oh, their customer service is excellent, so ask them what you need/should use, and how etc. Marcia Gilgore (sp?) is on insta lots, and replies to queries a lot, which I like.

The skincare is good, but stock availability isn't always. Have been a member for a couple of years and most of my products and makeup are now BP but I haven't always liked the make-up. One Powder Wonder is as excellent as Pootles says it is; brushes are good, and the lip liner in Rummy Pink is my best-ever lip match.

Hannah Martin, Caroline Hirons and Sali Hughes have all done brand overviews on YouTube which are good. They also all have a code you can you for an extra £50 allowance.

I've been wondering this too, wasted loads of time browsing the website yesterday and wasn't sure what to buy.

If you do it via Quidco you'll get £4 cash back too OP Smile

I love it. It’s very cheap but proper stuff. Make up isn’t anything special but skin care is pretty good. They also do scents and candles now and will be releasing hair care sometime this year.

I haven't tried any of the makeup as I don't wear it, but I have been a member for about a year and absolutely love the skincare. It's saved me a fortune as I used to spend £40/£60 on a single product, with BP I could get a whole 3 step routine for that. I've loved everything I've tried so far and have repeat bought things like the fruit enzyme mask. Qi serum is good too, as is the vitamin C moisturiser. Most of my skincare is beautypie now. The only annoying thing is the spending limit

The candles are also excellent, forgot to mention them. Not quite on par with diptyque or jo malone but the ones I've tried have been great
