Lovely when that happens! I agree btw.I can confirm that CT Hollywood Filter and Collection Filter Finish are virtually identical. The only different I can discern is about £30

I feel the same way about that and the ELF version. A youtuber (possibly pampered wolf) said that she preferred the ELF version to CT version.I can confirm that CT Hollywood Filter and Collection Filter Finish are virtually identical. The only difference I can discern is about £30
Mac Well Dressed is my absolute favourite blush - it is such a beautiful colour. But I think it has been discontinuedThat’s nice, just had a look.
Blusher is my crack. I have far too many for the years I have left on earth.
My favourite was a couple of quid from Boots Collection. It was all I used to use. Bastards changed the packaging, and the shade, although they called it the same name - but totally different. It used to be called Pink Cloud, still is but completely different shade to the original. I still have some of the old version, I am eking it out.
So, for the last few years I have spent so much money on blushes to try and find my forever shade. I have gone high end (Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, loads more) right down to Primark, not bad actually but can’t find a shade near to the one I like. Until this week when I spotted what looks like a very expensive replacement - Hermes but it’s 65 quid! However just looked up an old article for the Boots one and it says Mac Well Dressed might be a dupe for the old one, the same one @Gold_7 mentions! Will check that out.
Noooo! That’s the only blush I use!Mac Well Dressed is my absolute favourite blush - it is such a beautiful colour. But I think it has been discontinued
I use the alfa parf reconstruction shampoo and love it. But the game changer for my hair was changing the way I washed it. I seen it on some tiktok about working the shampoo into your hair and then rinsing it for a lot longer than you would think it needs. I can easily get a week between washes now without it being greasyAnyone recommend a shampoo that will actually help fine hair? Greasy roots dry ends, every shampoo I buy just doesn't help
A fringe?Have any of you lovely ladies any recommendations for forehead wrinkles? They're not bad yet but I want to really try and put off going down the route of botox.
I have tried retinol and it was too harsh for my skin, I think it was the lowest % too. I wouldn't usually consider my skin as sensitive. I have combination skin but it is starting to become drier than it was a few years ago.
I've had one in the past and I think trying to keep it from sticking up or going wavy only contributed to my wrinklesA fringe?
Im on my last pan of it and it’s nearly all goneNoooo! That’s the only blush I use!
ETA: bugger, it’s true. I’m going to have to ration mine. Ok, have to search for a dupe for that now!

Why shouldn’t white women use it?Has anyone tried the Mielle Rosemary Mint Oil for Scalp and Hair? All the drama around it and some black women saying white women shouldn’t use it and such has peaked my interest- is it really that good?
Do you own one? I was looking at those too and wondered were they worth it!Nuface mini. Creams and lotions and potions won’t do anything.
Mielle is a black owned brand that created a hair oil that catered for textured (Afro Caribbean) hair. An influencer (who is white) bought it and mentioned on her Tik Tok that it was working well in the few weeks she had used it and sold out and some places started to increase their prices. One person commented saying ‘The natural hair product section is so small, y’all have hundreds of brands catered to your hair and we have about 10 that actually work’Why shouldn’t white women use it?
These are the sort of comments being left:I can understand the ire about the price hike, always annoying, but the business person is black and going to earn well out of it, so in that respect seeing a black business do well is cheering. And maybe it will bring more black businesses into the market.
I don’t like dictators in any sphere, particularly hate all this cultural appropriation malarky, unless it is an appropriation that encourages racism. Leaving horrible comments is not on. What any one chooses to wear or use is not really anybody’s business. One of my black colleagues wears a blond wig. I must tell her to remove it as she has no right to wear it, or maybe I should just mind my own business and let her crack on.
