@CinnamonCoffee I had a magazine subscription with them for years that had a free beauty box at the start- quick and reliable delivery and really good customer services when something got damaged in the post - I think the boxes they do are such good value as the brands know that it is a good way to get publicity and customers as they are attached to magazines like Red and Good Housekeeping

Ok brilliant I may order then.
I've not worn anything on my nails for years and years as not allowed due to being a nurse. So my nails are always cut right down which I've got so used to that I now hate my nails being even slightly long @greenspaces4peace

Another note I had a sample pot of Charlotte tilbury magic cream and omg it's amazing! It's really thick so amazing on my dry skin

@Experiment627 we will need a new thread soon

Empty: Liason Brow Bond
note: 3ml volume, that’s the equivalent of 30 drops…
note: the mild brush discoloration (obvious sign of some darkening formula)
the brush however is a nice way to apply product and I had considered refilling the tube with castor or coconut oil.
zero effect with daily use.

That Harper’s beauty box looks amazing, but I seem to be regaining control of my impulse buying. I really do have quite enough skincare to last me a decade or more.

@PomRuns I am loving the Garnier green one - thanks for the recommendation 💜

I have some empties:

  • Simple de-stress sheet mask: as sheet masks goes this was ok. As usual, I got to uses out of it. That is just how I roll 🤩
  • Oleus jojoba oil for hair & skin: mainly used as a body oil - absorbs quickly and is nourishing. Was nice as a face oil too, and also a hair oil but only if washed out afterwards (as they state on the bottle). This was from a H&B advent.
  • Derma q10 & retinol hand cream: cannot recall where I got this. Was vair inexpensive. Was vair not worth it. Used on feet but really not enough. Actually felt drying on hands.

@MidnightMeltdown - I have medium olive skin. Bane of my existence is finding a shade match. I have heard that Rose Inc has a super Light Olive Concealer. (Waaaay too light for me, but coverage is high and much cheaper than hourglass. I don’t mind spending up on concealer as I go through them so rarely.) I have been using The Saem Green Beige concealer and mixing with other concealer for a better shade match.

I keep waiting until our Sephora or Mecca Cosmetics (even more Luxe) gets their shit together and gets HAUS Labs so I can buy this HAUS Labs in the Golden Olive shade (260) because it sounds so perfect. (But so expensive I want to try it first!) Also blush looks fab!

I finally found a shade match in the charlotte tilbury beautiful skin foundation

*Klaxon!!!
Was watching Nadine Baggott on YouTube and she interviewed a fab-sounding London Derm of Korean background. She recommends this UK-based K-beauty company. A lot of you have asked me who to recommend, and I had no idea. She said they’re fast and reliable. No waiting weeks and weeks like Stylevana, etc.
