I did something mad....

[Silvercoconut]

And spent €46 on a blusher today 😱
Just fell in love with the colour and feel of it, I'm normally a Maybelline/Nyx sort of gal
(Except mascara)

The packaging is also so so beautiful, but feeling a bit sick about it 😅
Tell me in WORTH IT!

It’s totally worth it! It will last for AGES. Think cost per wear op!

It’s Deff worth it. You won’t buy another for years!!! Let’s see!!!!

I need to know which one!!!!

I have my eye on Patrick Ta duo blush and it’s about £35 but resisting as I have about a dozen blushers already.

Agree with PP that if it’s the right shade you’ll get loads of wear and it will work out a bargain, so enjoy 😀

I really want to know why it's so much better.
Is there a qualitative scale?
I want that great product but I'm so often disappointed.

This one..... It's beautifully sheer, only the tiniest faintest bit of shimmer so not shiny, perfect pinky peachy shade, I'm convinced it's going to make me look ALIVE😅

It's beautiful. Use it and enjoy it. Hold it in your hand and admire it. Don't feel guilty. I never wear make up, yet even I can see that buying a lovely YSL blusher would make anyone feel good. People spend loads of money on things that harm them like smoking. Your small extravagance can't possibly be bad.

Oh that's pretty 😍 .treating yourself is fine you are allowed.

You’re going to look awesome op 🙌💋

Yes if you love it. I bought a charlotte tilbury one years ago that was expensive but it has lasted for ages, well worth the money imo.

It's a gorgeous shade. Sometimes, if you find something that's exactly right, it's worth spending the extra.

(oh hello, By Terry foundation)

Don’t drop it. I’m speaking from experience

😱😭

Every time you put it on you’re going to feel special and have that extra spring in your step.

We all deserve these little treats that makes every day a little brighter.

Awwb thank you to all of you who haven't made me feel crazy! It really is an extravagance to me to spend that amount on makeup but I just absolutely HAD TO HAVE IT 😅 just holding it is giving me a thrill, I'm pathetic 🤣

You definitely are not pathetic, its bringing you a bit of joy. Im umming and ahhing over a charlotte Tilbury set i normally just wear No7 or revolution im just going to buy it 😀

Please don’t feel bad! I bought an expensive blusher as a student and felt guilty for ages- a decade later and there’s still loads left!

Well that looks fabulous 🤩 kind of wish I hadn’t seen this though, somehow a stranger on mumsnet having a treat seems to make me think I now need a treat… 🤣

Just adding my voice to others yes you are worth it!

So a few months ago, I fell in love with Westman Atelier Baby Blushstick for £44! 😱 It’s not even that big but the luxurious texture and colour payoff is stunning! I really wanted something like I see in the mags where the model just looks like she has a naturally pigmented glow and yeah it’s just beautiful! I’ve attached the glorious shades below for you all to salivate over lol. I got the colour Chouchette because I have olive skin and it just complements my skin tone so well 🙂.

Yay do it!
Who cares? Life is too bloody short to deny yourself every bloody little thing I've realised!
When I think about it I have spent years and years denying myself little pleasures because I always prioritised my children, my dogs, absolutely everyone and everything else apart from myself.
And now, I'm going to be 61 next Tuesday, I'm going to buy things for me!! ME!!!! ME!!!!!!!
