Mally Beauty TSV Sun Aug 23rd

[loveheart]

Nah. bad things keep me awake so I try to think of pretty non serious things to keep myself amused until I can sleep. Otherwise I hit my worrying stride at full speed and get into too much of a tiz and then I won't sleep at all.

What got me off to sleep in the end was thinking about all the lovely things that Px do that might be in the TSV!

Thinking's not too bad is it? So long as I'm not buying? :tongue2:

Cheers for keeping an eye on me petal. :flower:

Thinkings fine Love A'kin. Hope the bad things get better soon.:flower:

Cheers sweetie. :flower:

I'd like to be able to say that all this beauty obsessive stuff is just a temporary distraction but I am well into even at less stressful times.

It does help though, cos it's one of the few things that can completely divert my attention away from worries just like that *snaps fingers* :sun:

I think I might be geting a bit better though cos I couldn't even be @r$ed to watch the YBF hours on x30! (I did watch the Claire one on FFWD):grin:

 

[loveheart]

I agree, watching QVC is pretty distracting and can take your mind off other things. I watched this mornings YBF and thougt, been there, done that and got the teeshirt.

:up2: Yeah I dunno if it's having recently sorted out my make up and knowing exactly what I've got and what I didn't get much use out of but it seemed very much "been there done that..."

Maybe there's hope for me yet?! :grin:

I felt the same - usually I would be glued to the TV watching avidly but today I really wasn't bothered (i even cleaned the windows rather than watching the show...... )

Well I didn't go that far... but I know what you mean. Poor old Stacey...:-(

She seems to have lost her sparkle (i know this has been discussed before) and in a way Mally seems to have that get up and go that Stacey used to have before it got up and went.

I wasn't sure if it was her or if it was us, but I agree even on 5 inch heels all day and heavily pregnant Mally had more pizazz didn't she?

I wonder how sales were for Stacey this time? :thinking2:

I didn't catch all of Mally's shows but she really did have pizazz (loving that word ) and also that similar banter that Stacey used to have when she brought Models Prefer.

Maybe she is trying to distance herself a little from Models Prefer? Which is a shame because I miss that energy and vitality that she had.

Yeah - I'm still not sure if it's not just our perception of her as much as Stacey phoning it in. I think we might have outgrown her a little bit. Or her make up "look" at least.

See now I feel terrible for saying that and I have to go and start a YBF Stacey Appreciation thread!

mind you, TF, this is not a traditional blusher, but it will highlight and define your cheekbones and eyes beautifully. xxx

That's what is interesting to me and tempting me about this kit. I've rarely found that traditional blushes have done me any favours in a similar way to PX's magic lotion/powder.

Finally watched the video and have made my choice of colour. But, I'm going to wait until I've tried out the CD. I promised myself I'd try the foundation now that mine is coming to an end.

Thanks for the advice and tips WS :flower:

 

[Tangle foot]

Well the plan is obviously not working too well. Do you really need this kit TF/? I really don't think so. Try a little f.a.r.t. You may find you can resist afterwards.

Fear not Loveheart I am still on the wagon!

Stepping away from the edge, I think I was still in "consolation purchase mode". Since going through my make up I do need to update and I'm going to start with CD foundation and then maybe some Mally:smirk::flower:

 

[Love A'kin]

No mally for me yet.... The 7 in 5-7 working days is up tomorrow though so fingers crossed!

 

[miss molly]

Still not got my TSV :17::28:

 

[kitten_with_claws]

Didn't go for the TSV but got the Discovery Kit in the paler peach option (the only thing I've bought myself this month from QVC!)........came today & I love it!
Very subtle effect, I did the old 'half a face' bit & was surprised at the nice effect it gave without making you look 'made up'!

(Was in a bit of a rush so yet to try it with foundation underneath etc. but looking very promising! Thanks for the extra bit of arm-twisting there WS, I do sometimes need a bit of a prod when it comes to trying new things! lol) :flower:

DD snatched up the lipgloss (I have a few, so didn't mind!) & then pounced on the eyeshadow, which in the peach options is 'brownstone' & it is gorgeous.....just need one for me now! *sigh*

 

[watersiren]

you are very welcome, kitten. i am glad you liked the kit (and relieved :sweat. Enjoy!! :flower:xx

 

[kitten_with_claws]

And for my next trick.......how to hunt down another 'brownstone' eye shadow? (I don't mind DD nabbing it & it did look lovely on her but I can't seem to find one on its own anywhere?)
I looked on Mally's site & the triple eye shadow kits QVC sell appear to be the same but as so often with QVC, have a different name & their pics are so carp, it's hard to match them up! Arrgghh! Would CS be able to tell me the names of the eye shadows do you think?
I wish you could buy the eye shadows separately......! :sad:

 

[watersiren]

there are regular listings on e**y of the eyeshadow. a us seller offers one for £5.49 plus £2.98 p&p.

(i have saved the search "mally/health and beauty" and i am following it regularly)

 

[kitten_with_claws]

there are regular listings on e**y, kitten, of the eyeshadow but not currently. i have saved the search "mally/health and beauty" and i am following it regularly.

Never is what you want when you're actually looking for it, is there? lol
Mind you, haven't been on e**y for a few days & stupidly clicked 'completed' (just to 'see'!), only to find one sold just yesterday for £1.20......one pound ruddy twenty.......couldn't you just scream......!?! Arrrrgggghhhhh! :headbang: :grin:

 

[miss molly]

I got the try me as well, wore the eyeshadow today over primer and it had all gone by lunch time:sad: lovely colour but no staying power. I may send the 'Try me' back.
