Best thing you've learnt (on here) this year?

[tobee]

Or this decade?

Since it's coming to the end of the year and also decade.

I was reminded how good Anne French Deep Cleansing Milk is by these boards.

Drink more water

The Ordinary
Superdrug Vit E
less sugar - skin is noticeably better!

Primark makeup
The Ordinary
Korean/Japanese skin care
Curly girl method for hair
Babyliss big hair
Prob loads more too!

Biore Watery Essence sun cream

I learned that Rimmel East End Snob lip liner is like a pillow Talk but even better - slighter less 'flat'

@Karcheer what's your routine now?
I currently use wet wipes but I can't get way with that anymore
But don't know where to start ??

@homemadecommunistrussia maybe a little big. They are SO comfy. I bought the apartment pants to wear on a flight but I’ve since worn them to work loads too. Love them.

Ooh great thread. It was haunting this place that encouraged me to get my eyes lasered and I’m so glad every day that I did.
wanders off to consider where the hell my leather jacket went

Not this year, but I've learned to:
Kondo my wardrobe
Manage my shopping addiction
Shop more smartly
Find trends I like that I wouldn't come across in my own life
The Ordinary

Things I learned that I do not like:
The babyliss roller brush thing
The heated hair brush

Cerave moisturiser!

@Ladybirdbookworm you might want to stock up on Bourjois as it’s being discontinued in the U.K., just in case you haven’t seen

@Destinysdaughter what’s curly girl method?

I read about Soolantra for rosacea and it is marvellous!

Chantelle soft stretch padded crop bra. Thank you for the recommendation. It is wonderful, comfortable and supportive.
The Ordinary
Tubing mascara
So many things.

Superdrug Natural Radiance range - my skin is incredible since using their glycolic stuff and serum / moisturiser

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation - perfect light coverage with a glow

Double cleansing

Hourglass ambient lighting powders

TheMarbleFaun I watched a few videos on Pinterest on how to cuff your trousers depending on what style shoes/boots you're wearing. It was an epiphany. Can't believe I actually used to stretch my jeans over the tops of my ankle boots, or just let them puddle messily around my ankles the horror

Never heard of the Ordinary, so many of you mentioning it - I will have to look it up!

Curly girl method is a way of helping manage curly or wavy hair better.

Batoko swimwear! Doesn't at all fit in with the usual "how to look expensive" MN style threads, but the quality is amazing and they are so flattering (despite the bright prints). I love mine so much.

M&S Luminosity primer - www.marksandspencer.com/luminosity-radiant-skin-primer-30ml/p/p22510008

@TerpsichoreanMuse I'm after a new primer so thanks for the recommendation. Is it nice and glowy? I find some primers sit in my pores too and can make my face look a bit 'heavy'. I might give this one a try.

Isle of Paradise tanning drops. I love them because my legs can now match my naturally tanned top half

Primark Makeup - a revelation
Vit C cleansing oil from superfacialist
Vaniqa - think I first read about it here
Vit E from superdrug

The Ordinary
Double cleansing
Biore Watery Essence
cosrx pimple patches for DH

I’m not big on bloggers and influencers as often there’s a sales pitch so S&B (plus the Facebook groups Mrs Gloss & The Goss - excluding the affiliate links - and Sali Hughes Get the Look) are my hangouts

The Ordinary, without a single doubt.

Used to spend 100's on really expensive products.
