Is it really? Id love to have one. I have a normal wand and it is a bit rubbish

I will never use a normal wand again. Miles easier and safer.

I don’t know if this is the right place to mention it, but I had a one-off 20% off women’s fashion offer on my Sparks card today. I used it for one of the new runway look coats. Fingers crossed it doesn’t drown me.

Clinique black honey lip gloss - absolutely love it!

Got nars bronzer and highlighter at Boots with 20% off and really liking them both. Also a Fenty clear lipgloss which I put over lipstick and makes my lips look very shiny.

I fell in love with a ring on the Ponte Veccio in Florence. Went away to think about it overnight and when I went back in the morning the shop had closed for the summer. Ended up buying a nice Bvlgari one but couldn’t get that one out of my head it was so different. Fast forward a month and dh surprised me with it! He’d had it shipped when they reopened. Only word of advice is to be conscious of how much your fingers swell in extreme heat as you end up with wrong size!

Thank you so much!❤️

I think having hands like a proper hand model shows the ring off to full effect too!

Yes me too re the bronzer, I grabbed it in Boots as it was the only one I could find and it's fab!

Is it suitable for maturer, dry skin do you think? Love the look of it but wondering if it will accentuate wrinkles 😉

I have very mature dry skin, I don't think it accentuates wrinkles.... especially without my reading glasses on.

Rimmel natural bronzer - from some video on tiktok but it’s so subtle I love it. This and L’Oréal glowtion make me feel quite pretty just now.

Bought this and love it! 👌🏻

L'Oreal nude eye pencil £7.99. I had a Clinique one (£27) which constantly broke and was looking for a replacement as not many brands have that shade in their range. I didn't want Clinque again and it was a choice of either Chanel at £32 or the L'Oreal one. I am usually a make-up snob but i looked at them both and was struck by the price difference for essentially the same product, so I decided to 'risk' it. Result: I love it! It glides on much easier than the Clinique one and i am a complete convert.

And this in the Nude and Brown Abyss - great colours and excellent staying power. Thanks OP!
