It's my birthday in a few weeks and I'm a little depressed that I won't be able to spend it with my extended family soooo... I've taken the challenge into my own hands and have decided to order a number of things scheduled to be delivered to me on my birthday!!

But what shall I order?

If you were only allowed to keep just ONE beauty/make up product from your drawers and dressing tables which would it be and why?!!!

Eyebrow pencil.

sar302 · 29/04/2020 22:27

Benefit 'They're real' mascara. Best mascara I have ever owned.

ProfChaos · 29/04/2020 22:29

Double wear foundation.

Titsywoo · 29/04/2020 22:31

Eyebrow pencil - I use Charlotte Tilbury the Rita shade.

WellTidy · 29/04/2020 22:34

Product - Estée Lauder day wear moisturiser for dry skin. I’ve used it for 20+ years on and off and I always come back to it.

Make up - I agree that benefit they’re real mascara is the HG. Never smudges. Comes off easily with Garnier micellar water (the pink one).

AnneLovesGilbert · 29/04/2020 22:34

Rimmel hide the blemish concealer.

For a treat though - and I know you only want one - I’d say body shop aloe overnight mask. Amazing stuff.

TomNook · 29/04/2020 22:34

Red lipstick

ParkheadParadise · 29/04/2020 22:34

Clarins Double Serum

massistar · 29/04/2020 22:37

Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream. Pricy but so worth it.

EnoughAlready2020 · 29/04/2020 22:39

Ooh keep them coming! Thank you!!!

I like the idea of a good red lipstick, mascara and foundation.

Eyeliner - probably Mac Uniform or Teddy.

mynameiscalypso · 29/04/2020 22:42

Neal's Yard Wild Rose Beauty Balm. Does everything and I've yet to find a better overnight moisturiser.

1vandal2 · 29/04/2020 22:42

Eyeliner

Racheyg · 29/04/2020 22:45

Eyebrow pencil or mascara ahhhhhhh it's tooo hard

GetOffTheTableMabel · 29/04/2020 22:47

Nars Climax mascara

LittlePinkMitten · 29/04/2020 22:48

Lilash! I have used it for several years now. It’s brilliant stuff.

AgnesNaismith · 29/04/2020 22:50

Eyelash curler - my eyelid went a bit dodgy last year so I’ve been avoiding mascara (which is no. 1 really) the curl lasts for a day and looks really natural. Otherwise I’d look like I had two boiled eggs for eyes 👀

trulyconfuseddotcom · 29/04/2020 22:51

Kiehl's Epidermal Re-Texturizing Micro-Dermabrasion facial scrub, it's the best exfoliating product I've ever used and definitely makes a difference to my skin. You don't need much either so lasts for ages.

Chanel05 · 29/04/2020 22:54

Chanel mascara - I swear by it (hence the username!) and I regularly have people ask me what mascara I'm wearing when I have it on.

walkingchuckydoll · 29/04/2020 23:09

My chanel eyeliner pencil. I can smudge it out for an eyeshadow effect and it still is an eyeliner pencil. It actually is all that I wear these days. I quit mascara for a while because my eye lashes were getting thin and they now grew back fuller and shinier. I don't think I should wear mascara every day anymore. It clearly isn't good for the lashes themselves.

Hairydogmummy · 29/04/2020 23:10

Origins Ginzing tinted moisturiser. Massively improves the look of your skin but totally natural looking, quick and easy, smells divine, spf 40 without being heavy and one shade fits all.

Muffin3 · 29/04/2020 23:15

Another for Clarins double serum, makes your skin so glowey and lovely!

hollieberrie · 29/04/2020 23:15

Hourglass powder in dim light
Makes me look alive

Candyflosscookie · 29/04/2020 23:22

Tinted moisturiser turns me from zombie to fresh faced lady. I like one with an spf for anti ageing.

AnnofPeeves · 29/04/2020 23:24

No. 7 mascara in the gold tube
