I am a fan of offers. Sometimes though I end up with things I would never have thought of buying.
Last month I needed some Primer. I had been using the Rimmel one since before the summer - having run out of my all time favourite from Maybelline. I ended up with the Rimmel because it was £4.00 cheaper than the Maybelline one, and from memory it was in a three for two deal as well.
I rather liked the Rimmel and so set out to buy it again - hopefully in another three or two - but by the time I got myself organised there was no three for two offer ( very sad face)
However I also needed a new bronzer/shaper. So that's how I was tempted into buying 17. I am a very old person but inside I do sometimes feel 17! Also I am on a budget and these are good budget items.
How have they worked for me. Well I found the primer a little stiff - it is a flesh colour and although once you get used to it it does make a nice base it just somehow feels a little stiff. I thought it was me but my daughter found the same - she also thought it strange. It is a neat little size for your bag thought.
The instant glow brick I have used once- maybe too summery for now and I haven't had any big nights out.
The define and Conquer was a good buy - it does what I want. It's maybe a bit dark if you are heavy handed( I am quite fair skinned)

I did buy the Rimmel primer the next time I was in Boots though - back on three for two.
My other items this time were the brow gel - this is a good product but beware it will lift any other powder colour off your brows if you have added it first- maybe I am using it all wrong and my brows did need dyed at that time.
Do you splurge or save on Cosmetics. DO you believe you get what you pay for?
