    Are these authentic items?

    I would really appreciate some expert help. I was bought some items for my birthday. I know they came from ebay and know the name of the seller. On the whole the packaging looks ok but something about the labels seems a little off. I have Jest and Blackberry eyeshadow plus the lipstick Cosmo...

    The 138 or 134?

    I'm thinking of treating myself to a new face brush. I haven't got any large face brushes and would really like something to apply face powder but would like a bit of multi-tasking too. I've narrowed it down to these two and although I've looked at the makeupalley reviews, I can't decide which...

    Has B2M completely stopped in the UK?

    Does anyone know the current situation? I've finally got 6 items to return so I'm gutted that it may not be possible to B2M! I'm nervous about taking my empties anyway as most of them are depotted eyeshadows and I don't know if my local counter will take them. Does anyone have any experience...

    I have Omega, do I...

    ...still need Wedge? I'm able to pick up either Wedge or Cork via CCO's but wasn't sure if I'd just be duplicating similar shades in my collection? I have Omega and also Bobbi Brown's Taupe (a light warmish brown). Should I save my money for something else?? Thanks in advance.

    Good colours and textures for small eyes?

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question. I'm really struggling with getting my eyes 'right'. I have small, fairly close set eyes and I'm finding anything more than a matt bone colour and eyeliner look awful. I think the other problem is my age. Any shadows with...

    Which would you pick?

    Hi, I'd really appreciate some help. After the lovely responses to my thread the other day, I compiled a list of all the things I would like to get. But I can't spend too much at once so I've had to narrow it down. I still probably can't have it all just yet so would love your opinions on...

    Customs charges when buying from ebay?

    Hi! I wondered if anyone could help me? I'm hoping to place an order for several e/s pans and a pallette through an ebay shop in the States.

    Blusher tips for high colour?

    I wondered if anyone had any advice/opinions on this? I have quite high colour in my cheeks and face and I'm prone to flushing. I usually avoid wearing blusher because of this but I don't think make up looks 'complete' without it. Are there any blusher colours that you could recommend? Or any...
