the next Doll10 Beauty TSV is on the 03/03/19
Hoping for the Hydragel foundation because I always like to stock up on that, but I have a feeling it won’t be (wasn’t Hydragel in the last TSV before Christmas?). I’ll be disappointed if it’s the Hydralux because that was SO orange on me.
Mind you, those TSVs are so samey and I don’t need another blush or lip product, nice as they are, so maybe I should swerve this one anyway.

*A great saving: if you were to buy the Foundation, Brush, Lipstick and Brow Sculptor individually from QVC you’d pay £97.57. So to receive these, plus the blush and highlighter for our Today's Special Value price of just £37.98, plus P&P, is a great saving of £55.64.
Couldn’t get my calculations to balance to the £97.57 for the items listed, not much out, but just couldn’t get it exactly.
Contains:
1 x Hydrabalm Serum Infused Foundation (18g) - Worth £30.51 cost £9.87
1 x H2Glo Highlighter (4.5g) - Worth £16 cost £5.18
1 x Hydragel Cream Balm (4g) - in 16 Again (mauve) Worth £18.50 cost £5.99
1 x Hydragel Lipstick (3.3g) - in KnockOut (mauve). Worth £16.02 cost £5.18
1 x Arch Master 3-in-1 Brow Sculptor (Pencil 0.16g, Powder 0.34g, Cream 1.5g) - in Universal (brown). Worth was £22 now £19.56 cost £6.33
1 x No. 7 brush - Worth £29 cost £9.38
Worth £129.59 cost incl p&p in calculations £41.93- so including p&p each item is just under a third of the original price.
I’m trying to be good at the moment. Use Bareminerals so not for me, thank goodness.It does look good value. I still don't need it but I would use it (eventually)!

Having read all the.posts, I might try out the hydralux foundation at some point. Also today I am going to brave the NYX Cosmetics shop in Kingston. I may be about 30 years older than the next oldest person in there but still. They have a powder that looks like the LG matte maker and various foundations. So I'm going in!
I didn’t know NYX had their own shops. I only know them from Boots. I find it an odd brand - some things seem really cheap, so I though it was a Boots 17-type range, but other items have quite high end prices. I do like their eyeshadow primers and have a couple of their mini shadow pots which aren’t too bad. In my Boots, you do get a lot of schoolgirls around the display but not exclusively.
I spent a lot of money! But I did get a couple of brushes and the white powder plus foundation to try and a primer. And a shaded powder. The foundations were £15 and the cheaper one £7. But she gave me a sample of the dearer one and said if I didn't like it I could take the unused bottle back. She told me the shop is full of youngsters at the weekend but different in the week. I found them helpful and they have a counter with all the foundations so you can test different shades.
They have a display in Boots at Kingston but it was better for me to have the shop where you could get a bit of help. This is forward planning in case LG vanishes!
