New thread because we can't stop chit-chatting and failing our low buy resolutions.

Everyone welcome to join in, new and old alike. This thread is a bad influence zone though so be warned all who enter! 😂

Dior have released some more eyeshadow palettes and now I can't decide if I want the blue one they're releasing or stick with getting the Chanel one in a few days! Too many options!

I really like that Chanel one. I really don't need it so must try to resist.

I'm using the Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Night Wrapping Mask which came with the Style Korean Lucky box. It also has a very satisfying peel 😁

I might try this one next! I did look at a Medicube one a while ago but some of the reviews said the peel wasn’t so good. I don’t think it was the turmeric one though.

Where on earth do they keep finding these - the back of the TARDIS or something?

🤣 I just popped on to Beauty Detective site to check if the Medicube mask I'm using was included in the SK lucky box and saw it there.

Funny thing is, I'm watching Ashes to Ashes at the moment and seriously thought I'd gone back in time to 2025 when I saw the AC's advertised

I clicked on the fragrance picture underneath and it says in stock?

It was and I added one to my basket, then it disappeared 😪

I think that's the one I prefer too. That pink 🩷 I'll probably end up with both 🙈

Gosh this thread moves fast! I’ve taken KS goat milk set with me on holiday, along with a bunch of other new skincare I haven’t gotten around to trying yet. Now remembering that it’s not a good idea to switch everything all at once, but too late 😂 I’m looking forward to trying the Medik8 eye cream once I’ve finished the GoldfadenMD mini (actually, I’ve bought the Goldfaden cream a few times, so at least my eyes aren’t in shock!)

Quick question: I’ve got the Dermoligica serum with me, along with Bioessence oil. Should I use both a night or one in the morning? And in what order? Thanks!

Look fantastic advents are back in stock. Too late for the fragrance one...

https://beauty-detective.com/lookfantastic-advent-calendar-2025/

Tempted…..someone please tell me i don’t need most of it?

@JoRaRaRa both beautiful but I think Chanel just wins!

BlueLimes · 16/02/2026 22:32

@JoRaRaRa love both (sorry!!).

How often has MZ skin been seen in tkmaxx ?

Obv don’t need … by year end I would !

user593 · 16/02/2026 22:36

I got my Betty palette today. I haven’t tried it yet but gosh the pans are beautiful! It’s bigger than I expected too.

BlueLimes · 16/02/2026 22:37

@Fillybuster have a lovely holiday.

You’d have purchased before Christmas if you really wanted one 😊

Jarrold’s have a cute Mother’s Day hamper. Only £25 for loyalty members, worth it for the perfumes for me.

Thanks for linking - I think I’ll get for the Valaya 😊

JoRaRaRa · 17/02/2026 06:41

@Addictedtobeauty that's really cute, I might actually buy it for my mum 😍 she likes tea, biscuits, beauty stuff and perfume.

JoRaRaRa · 17/02/2026 06:52

The Chanel spring denim collection is now available to buy on their website. I've bought the palette 💙🩷 I was tempted to buy the eyeliner too, but I think I'm going to buy the blue dior palette too, so black eyeliner will have to do, unless I can find a similar colour at superdrug 🤔

I'm tempted to try to sell the little denim pouch on vinted. I think they'll sell quite well as people can sew them onto their jeans etc 😍 I'd sew them onto mine, but I usually buy darker denim so it seems like a good way to make back some money.

Thanks for linking, this is really cute at a great price point.
i ordered two to get free postage, like you say worth it just for the perfumes.

Whoo-hoo - hopefully a good year for me as I'm a Fire Horse. Your own Chinese sign & element comes round every 60 years, so doubt I'll be here when the year of the Fire Horse comes round again 🔥🐎
