Lessons in Beauty TSV 5/8/09

[loveheart]

Hi:wave2:,

I have no interest in buying more make-up. I hardly ever bother to put it on and have loads of Laura Geller and Smashbox if I feel the need.
The only blip on my no buy radar is Honora. I know I will be on holiday, but I have a cunning plan. I can 'phone QVC at midnight on the TSV day and ask one of those lovely CS reps in Liverpool to describe the TSV to me and if I fancy it, then I could buy it......I have the overseas 'phone number for QVC in my holiday document wallet already.....

I won't be able to see Ralph however and that is a bit of a blow. Perhaps I will Sky+ his shows and watch them when I come back!



FART alert!:cheeky::cheeky::cheeky:

This is quite worrying. What are you thinking of. "Phone up . QVC at midnight and ask them to describe it". Are you serious? You do not need any Honora stuff. Go on your holiday and forget about QVC Super f.a.r.t has spoken.

I'm pretty sure they have a stand at Bluewater

Do you mean like a market stall? Can't wait to see it then.

Plint, I am truly shocked by your blatant devious planning and hope you come to your senses before you let the sisterhood down. Your mobile may have to be confiscated by F.A.R.T. agents to stop you from straying...
p.s. where are you off to?

SCW, whats your game? Don't encourage Plint. We are trying to save her, while you are tempting her.

Hmm, they sell this stuff at a stand in the middle of the Glades in Bromley! There's always a girl chasing me through the shopping centre with a brush strongly implying that I need to be wearing more makeup!! Think I'll be giving this one a wide berth somehow....might be nice stuff but I'm always nervous of any brand which doesn't have proper bricks n mortar stores.

How can the F.A.R.T.S help you resist?

Would it help if you looked at your existing collection?

Thank you for injecting a little sanity....

Hi:wave2: fairynuff,
You are right. I repent of my evil planning.:sad:
To celebrate my 60th birthday, which was in June, we have hired a villa in Puerto Pollensa in Majorca and all our family are coming - 2 sons + wives and children, my mum and my OH and me. It will be fabulous and we are all ready for a bit of sun. My mum is 82 and our youngest grandchild will be 3 months old - quite an age spread! Can't wait!

You are only trying to be helpful.

Thanks SCW - you know I appreciate your heads up on Honora premieres and the like. I am going to be more sensible in future, as all FARTS should be, but I may be tempted on an occasional basis and I will let other people buy Honora pearls for me for birthday, Mother's Day and Chistmas, instead of spending my own money.

You'll find it easier to resist if you check out the Bella Pierre web site. To me it looks like bog-standard mineral makeup at vastly inflated prices. £34.99 for a small pot of foundation with nothing special to commend it! I thought BE was pricey! :11:

I think I'm safe then. Not sure that I want to buy make up from a brand that hasn't been reviewed by you lovely people before. Besides that, and this will probably put me off the LG one as well, I don't wear eyeshadow and don't wear that much make up since I've been out of work (not one to wear it around the house) so my money is probably safe though I will watch the shows.

Plint shouldn't feel so bad about wanting to phone QVC. I've been known to go online whilst on holiday to look at the TSVs (both the LE and OPI ones were on when I was away in May). In my defence I didn't buy though and this is purely I think because I didn't see any presentations with AY squealing that they were down to the last million in the warehouse! x

My daughter has tried a lot of the MM brands. Bella Pierre was the first she used. She has given it a huge thumbs down. Says it gives a weird finish.

She has also used Lily Lolo and L'Oreal plus another American one that I can't remember.

She always goes back to Bare Escentuals. She has no trouble with itching like some do. She used to get a lot of spots with liquid foundation but has no spots apart from odd hormonal one with BE. She's 21.

Bella Pierre was the brand that was sold by one of the isle vendors in Bluewater ( One of those that Hijack you ), its not bad for a mineral foundation lots of deifferent shades and the eyeshadows are very good value and last for ages, however its not "special enough" to make it a repeat purchase for me .
