[looobylooo]

(Beauty/Blemish Balm)

Anyone tried them?
If so, what are your thoughts on them?

[Laelia]

Lol looby,
you still trying to be bootyful :0) ... BB creams? Like spot sticks?

[looobylooo]

Hi Mrs Q! lol
Trying aye.. but I give up! lol

[Laelia]

Well from what I remember of your pic looby ... you don't need it! O.k ... serious head on ... the best thing I've found for blemishes is Sudocrem! Yep ... it's brilliant looby. Dab it on before you go to bed.

[Laelia]

Just don't go heavy with it or you end up looking like that baby ghost ... Casper !!

[looobylooo]

lol, oh I already use Sudocrem for the ol spot and blemish!

Nooo, BB creams are like a foundation/tinted moisturiser, 'full of goodness' etc etc, to 'give that healthy/glow'.. they're all the go!

[Laelia]

Lol ... there full of goodness ... give that healthy glow ... you crack me up you do!! That Sudocrem is a nigtmare if you put it on too thick isn't it! Took me ages one morning .. kept lathering up with the soap ... thought I was going to be lae for work!! :0) Well now I'm educated in BB creams!

I was sucked in and got the Garnier one, never use it - really greasy, far too light coverage which disappears after 10 minutes anyway and very very highly perfumed. Might be good for a young but dry skin only needing a little help in coverage IMO

[looobylooo]

lol, so did I 'sell it' to you, Mrs Q?! lol

I'm trying the Garnier one at the moment, Prudie, I got a little sample of it,
and I'm with you when you say it doesn't have much coverage (ideal for those with pefect skin!)
So what I've done is apply a bit of my foundation on top, and the finish look is quite nice,
So I'll try it again, peresevere with it, and see how I get on, as it does seem to 'even out skin tone' for me, so I don't need to use much concealer.

(Laelia, did you ever get any argan oil, in the end?
I reordered some more, from where I've bought before online, but, cor blimey, this last bottle honks!
it smells really nutty - like peanut butter/popcorn!
I can't use it as the whiff puts me off.
I've got it sat here, with the lid off, hoping the smell eases off, lol.
My last few bottles have been fine, hardly any aroma attall.
Just wondering, if you did get some that time, what yours was like?)

[Prudie]

I got some pure Argan oil (for my hair) from Amazon and it smells so bad I can't use it (more like salami sausage but it can be eaten in salads apparently). I mentioned this to my hairdresser who showed me the Redken version that is specifically for hair and that smelt lovely!

[Laelia]

Yes looby ... if you remember ... it was according to you an 'inferior' brand :0)
Smelled of melons lol! Anyway .. I'd rather smell of melons than honk of nuts ;0)

[Laelia]

lol prudie ... they'll be a pack of dogs chasing you two!!

[looobylooo]

Oh you fibber, you! lol.. I'd never accuse you of buying 'inferior' goods! lol
And oh yes, melony is far far better than bl00dy nutty!

Oh heck, Prudie! Salami smelling! ooh that's not good.. lol....

[Laelia]

Old salami head ;0)
