I started a thread about make up first division and I found the replies very educational, Many people posted not so much about the brands but specific items within brands and I thought that it might be useful to have something that was just about wow individual items and to extend it to beauty in general. The sort of thing where you feel you don't really care if there might be something better out there because you just love what you have found,
I have three (although I might get reminded of others).
YSL eyeliner. It is the COUTURE KAJAL in blue petrol. There is nothing else that makes my eyes pop like this one.
Elemis Total Glow Every other one I have tried for the face makes me look like I haven't washed properly. It is a beautiful colour easy to manage.
Clinique Waterproof Mascara. I don't actually wear waterproof mascara as a rule but I had two sudden family bereavements in two months in 2014 and flew back to the family home after the first death with little thought of make up. One of the las t conversations I had with my brother was his saying about seeing a photo of me "and I just thought - well she's looking well". So I decided I would look as well as I could for him. I went into Boots and asked for the best waterproof mascara they had and this is what they suggested and boy did it work. It was certainly tested. I had many good crys that day and the mascara never budged. My cousin was so impressed she got it for her daughter wedding. So although I don't plan to need it that often. My search is over.
I would be really interested in what are other people's Wow beauty items. I have lots of other things that I really like but not that I think cannot realistically be betters.
It will be interesting to see what proportion are QVC? For me it is one in three.
