Lancôme Teint Idole
I know that these little bottles don't look like a weeks worth of foundation, but I've had these two for about three weeks and they're only half empty. I saw in last month's Vogue that if passing by the Lancôme counter, you can ask for a free skin consultation and foundation match.
I'm not sure if anyone else has tried the Mac Studio Fix foundation - but I hate it. Overpriced, and clogs up your skin so badly. Not a nice thing to use on your face everyday! I explained to the woman that I just wanted something that worked, was easy on the skin and lasted, so she matched me two shades of the new Teint Idole Ultra 24H, #05 and #10 - two of the palest shades. Embarrassing.
I'm definitely going to buy the full bottle which I think is around £27, it's lovely.
Random I know... but hey.. if theres more than one Lancôme where you live.. who says you can't go and get one from each counter?! Labels: Foundation, Lancome, Makeup

Undisclosed Desires In Your Heart
Last week I bought some new makeup from eBay. At first I was a little bit worried about buying it.. you don't know what could be in it haha! But, after looking at the feedback and the comments I decided it was worth a shot. I'm obsessed with Benefit - I just love the packaging and the vintage feel of it all, not so much the pricetag though. I've had the BadGal lash mascara, the lipgloss and BeneTint, and my staple, the Brow-zings eyebrow box which I think I could die without. It's amazing! I'm saving up to buy a new SLR, so I was going to cut down on little things like buying nice makeup and stuff, so had a little look online. And found this..
Mac False Lash Effect Mascara - £4.50 (with £2 postage) Benefit Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer - £3.50 (with £2 postage)
The reason they were so cheap is because they are factory faults. Like the packaging or the printing is slightly wrong so they are unsellable - but I can't notice any difference! The products themselves are perfect.
I have tiny weenie eyes and literally no eyelashes and this is amazing! Saying that, it REALLY hurts when you get it in your eye...
I this is a really irrelevant post, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who loves getting good makeup really cheap! The link is Here for the mascara but just click see sellers other items, there are other Benefit things for sale too.
P.s, buying a new SLR, anyone got any good recommendations? My budget is about £800-850 x Labels: Beauty, Benefit, eBay, Mac, Makeup
