She posted an FOTD on Twitter yesterday. Maybe she's really busy at work?
Yet I can only use £30 right now. They did send me a £13 voucher with my credit card statement too, so I'll be saving them until the Estee Lauder eyeshadow palette comes out. It's up on HoF, but I might as well wait now and get it for free.
I've just seen the details of the Chanel summer collection on Temptalia and other than maybe the bronzers, I don't think I'll pick anything up. Which is good, because I want loads from Guerlain and a few things from Dior as well. Also don't think I'll be getting loads from Hey Sailor, I'm most excited about the lip pencils. Again, from Reel Sexy I want one lipstick. (I do want loads from Heavenly Creature, so might as well not get much from these anyway.)
Dawn, how are you feeling?
Good news about Boots, although I don't think I have many points on my card right now. I would love it if Debenhams followed, but I'd already be happy if they'd at least converted more than 15 quid worth of points every month. I literally have about 200 quid's worth sitting there unused.

She must be alright then, and I must just have missed that Tweet (haven't been keeping up with it as much these past few days).
It seems rather crazy about Debenhams only converting £15 of points a month. Do you then have a time limit in which to spend them?
I'm feeling a little better today - mostly relief, I think, as the District Nurse came round this morning to do my dalteparin injection, and decided to do the INR blood test first. Luckily it was only a finger-prick test, not the other type, and my result came up as 2.4, which is right slap bang on target, so I didn't need the injection after all. She's given the results to the practice nurse, who phoned me and told me I won't need any more injections, and just changed my dosage of warfarin. I don't have to see anyone again until Monday, when I will have another finger-prick test just to try to get the right dosage of warfarin sorted out.
It's got extremely windy here - sounds like big lorries rumbling down the road! It was absolutely chucking it down earlier, too. Makes me glad I don't have to go out in it lol

sorry ive been MIA lately, ive had a mega month at work, ive had a promotion and am moving to another Boots store to improve and run the pharmacy there by myself, it will just be me and a pharmacist, and i'll basically be doing everything by myself. I'm nervous to say the least! But its a step up and a step in the right direction of management. I'm also half way through some more pharmacy training so its made me a bit nervous to switch to a more challenging environment at the same time as trying to do my training. But what's life with out a challenge eh?
i havent even thought about the new collections, but i'm not very excited by chanel's summer collection, it seems boring.
hey sailor looks fun, i cant wait for that, but i really do not need any more make up right now!! i'm sure i'll get a couple things though, what is even out this month coming??

Congratulations on the promotion
I think we've got Hey Sailor, Reel Sexy and Lips and Tips (aka Fashion Sets) coming out next week.
I don't NEED any more makeup, but I think I'll be buying a few bits from each of these - after all, I think I need to treat myself. I've got to be very selective, though, as I don't have much money.

Well I don't think any of us here NEED any more make up for the next 5 years, lol. Maybe the occasional make up remover and mascara, perhaps a bottle of foundation as well, but other than that, I'm pretty sure I'm set for the next 5 years. In fact for eyeshadows, blushes and lipsticks, try next 10 years!

I don't think I have quite enough for 10 years, but I definitely have too much! Yesterday I learned something amusing... Once I finish my temporary job in the Netherlands, I will be moving back home to New Zealand. I have already sent 90% of my makeup back home, where my husband is currently living. I found out yesterday that he has put all of it into one suitcase (apparently it only just fits) which he is now using to prop up the television! (He has just moved into our new apartment so doesn't really have any furniture).
Not sure which horrifies me more, the fact that I have a whole suitcase of makeup, or that it's being used to prop up the telly!

I have way more than enough makeup to fill a suitcase, or even 2
I discovered this a couple of weeks ago when I started to try to organise my bedroom (something that I have had to stop since I can't breath to lift now, or even tackle the stairs very well) and put my various shoeboxes/MAC black boxes etc of makeup into 80litre plastic boxes as part of the sorting process. I filled 2, and still have more to house! I could probably fill another one of those 80litre boxes easily
I have way too much, yet I still want more. I think I am addicted

Well I'm quite new to collecting makeup, and know that I'm addicted already - I want so much from Guerlain over the next month or so, but I know that I don't need it at all. To think I used to have about three lipsticks, two eyeshadow palettes and never bothered with foundation etc. I've even got into blusher lately. I hardly wore any makeup at all before I went back to work two years ago, now a 'no makeup' day involves at least tinted moisturiser, kohl liner, couple of eyeshadows, mascara and lip gloss!
Is there any cure for this? Though I don't think I want one, as it's such FUN!

^Hehe that's hilarious! Hmm I don't think I have enough makeup to fill a suitcase at all so that's kinda made me feel better about my ever growing stash...!I don't think I have quite enough for 10 years, but I definitely have too much!

I don't think my make up would fit into the largest suitcase we own, in fact I KNOW it wouldn't, in fact I'm pretty sure I have even more than Dawn (Rockin) by the sound of it. I have actually put two large bags (not suticases though!) full of back ups and/or powders I don't plan on using ever in the attic because it didn't fit in my cupboard anymore. That is the extent of my problem. Yet I still want more. Luckily for me I'm not too interested in the new Mac collections other than Heavenly Creatures (all the Fashion Sets lipglasses are blah) and only want lots from Guerlain as far as summer collections go, but in any case, I don't even need or have space to put any of those.

I went shopping today and I didn't buy any make up, not even nail polish, lol! I would've, but they didn't have the Models Own Ibiza Mix and there was nothing new in TKMaxx. I did buy a make up bag, I don't know if you saw the kitty one on my blog, it's the same just bigger with a leopard on it, really nice and only 4 quid more expensive (but about twice the size!).

Yeah, I have about 50 quid coming next month.I can't wait until I'm able to go and browse in the shops again. Isn't it this coming month that we get our House Of Fraser vouchers? I think I have over £50 to come from that, so looking forward to spending it
Also I'll have 45 quid on my Debenhams beauty card and a £13 voucher. Are you feeling better now?

I'm not feeling too bad, thanks. I find I get tired during the day, and have to have a lie down on the sofa. I also feel palpitations at times, but at least I can manage the stairs much easier now. I seem to have trouble concentrating on anything for long, and struggle to think of the right words for things sometimes, but apparently that's to be expected since I haven't been getting enough oxygen for a while, and that should get better in time. I had put it down to age lol.
Don't know what to spend my HoF money on. I would use it to buy MAC, but after the delays they had in getting Shop Cook up and then not having everything, I don't really want to risk it. I think Urban Decay or Benefit might get my money this time, or Estee Lauder have a beautiful lip gloss coming out, if we get it here http://www.temptalia.com/estee-lauder-violet-rain-pure-color-sequin-finish-lip-gloss-review-photos-swatches.

Yes, I saw that gloss too and it's so beautiful! Not that I need any more glosses for about 5 years...
I just got the Guerlain summer eyeshadow quad in the post, bought it from eBay for £14.99 plus p&p, it's unboxed and doesn't even come with the velvet pouch, but it is brand new. I quickly photographed and swatched it, and decided to try it out quickly too. Although it feels weird wearing such summery colours in this weather. We're going to a circus this afternoon, but it's raining again, bleh.
Can you spend the HoF vouchers online as well as in store?
Glad you're feeling better. I can't shake off my bad throat, I've had it for about 10 days now. Ugh. And this weather is so depressing.

It's raining again here, too Almost makes me glad I don't have to go out,
I don't NEED any more lipgloss either - I have way too much, but that colour is sooo pretty!
I don't think it's possible to spend HoF vouchers online, but I think you can go in to a store and place an order from there. Certainly there's a computer at the collections desk in ours, which is permanently set to their website and available for customers to use.

I didn't get one.
Did it not come with the Daily Mail or something? I remember reading about that on FB.

It should have been automatically been added to your card on 16th April. I got an email about it. I just checked and it's valid until 13th May so maybe worth enquiring about?
