have to agree with MI, definitely Benetint all the way

MorticiasMother · 13/10/2007 19:38

Thinking of George Clooney in the nud and doing stuff that only dh should be able to do.

hmummy · 13/10/2007 19:38

Thanks MI,
where can I get it and how many pennies?

Bigger branches of Boots stock it, can't remember how much, lasts ages though - you only need to put about three dots per cheek.

Bourjois is nice. Cute little pots anyway (am a sucker for packaging)

Yes, but the accompanying drool kind of distracts

Tottie32 · 15/10/2007 20:03

borjois (sp) here as well love the little pots

littleNonSpecificHolidaylapin · 15/10/2007 20:12

NARS Orgasm - yes, really - terrible name, gorgeous colour (but maybe more peachy than rose). V popular for weddings as it is such a natural and flattering colour.

Lily Lolo in Rosy Apple - it is my absolute fave at the moment.

littleNonSpecificHolidaylapin · 15/10/2007 20:13

Benetint makes me look like a clown - but that's because I am cack-handed

RubyShivers · 15/10/2007 20:14

another vote for Nars Orgasm here
i have to buy it, by pointing at it

(i know i am rubbish, but i can't say i would like an orgasm in the middle of Space NK )

vacua · 15/10/2007 20:16

love benetint but TWICE I have managed to pour it down myself when applying quickly on my way out, once down my arm and all over the sleeve and once down my FRONT

Tutter · 15/10/2007 20:16

clinique cream blush fab

they discontinued it, the feckers

littleNonSpecificHolidaylapin · 15/10/2007 20:21

ooh, I love the Benefit pressed powder thingies though... there's a bronzey one and a peachy one... and I have Dandelion, the pinky one. Scrummy! I heart Benefit

vacua · 15/10/2007 20:22

Dandelion for winter and Dallas for summer innit, and their non-fiction foundation is great too.

inamuckingfuddle · 15/10/2007 20:24

I have dandelion for everyday to make me look alive adn benetint for nights out. I've only used it twice in 6 months

SpawnChorus · 15/10/2007 20:38

Rimmel cream blush - 'cocoa kiss'

Very good soft rose colour, and cheap!

Lily Lolo's 'Rosey apple' is lovely. It looks worryingly shimmery, but is surprisingly natural when on.

Lily Lolo 'cupcake' is also lovely. It's a lighter pink than 'Rosey Apple' and it's not shimmery.

You can get cheap samples from the Lili Lolo website.

SpawnChorus · 15/10/2007 20:39

ahem - I think that should have been 'rosy' not 'rosey' (Ooooh - that's what Benetint cheek stain does to me! )

hmummy · 15/10/2007 21:23

Thanks everyone. Still have not got into town to purchase blusher.I think I would prefer a powder/ cream - ALWAYS in a rush applying, liquid might be tricky!
Like the sound of looking alive ina...!

all the benefit lovers on here..wanted to let you know you can but directly of Benefits site in the U.S at usually half the cost of UK prices and they do free shipping.
Just be careful it is highly addictive

policywonk · 15/10/2007 21:37

Stila 'push-ups' are nice and creamy, easy to apply, can use them on lips as well.
