Ugh, yes, that's so true! It's sometimes difficult to get near any of the make-up in Superdrug, let alone find some that hasn't already been pawed at.

I love, love, love GOSH!
I especially love all their effect powders (except Purple Rain... Has too much glitter!)!
I did some swatches here: http://specktra.net/f217/gosh-swatches-87553/ if anyone's interested

I think all their colors are amazing - especially for a drugstore brand!

It's funny that you should post this now as I've just been out this lunchtime to pick up another few of their eyeliners and I thought of you and all your lovely FOTDs using GOSH products as I was browsing!

I was hoping to find Fox Effect Powder (despite previous, unsuccessful forays looking for it before) and no luck this time either. Oh well. I did get 3 more of their Extreme Art Liner eyeliners - I think they just have numbers instead of shades, but I got 2 different greens and a metallic pale yellow which is fantastic!

Oh, and as well as the shade which is more or less exactly the same as Aqualine, there's also what appears to be a pretty good dupe for Greenplay. I would have bought them both but I already have the Liquidlasts.

The liquid eyeliner is brings new meaning to the words long lasting and waterproof!!! Insane!

I was in Superdrug today and noticed they sell a brush like the MAC 187 for only £11 and the brushes are on 3 for the price of 2. So I got two of the duo fibre ones and an eyeshadow brush.

I've just tried it and they sheaded a few hairs, just like one of my MAC brushes did, but I love it and alot cheaper than MAC!

They are great quality and so is the eyeshadow brush. I will be going back for some more brushes tomorrow.

Hi, is the MAC 187 dupe densely packed? I've been trying to figure out the price of it for ages but everytime i want it theres such a big queue i cant be bothered to wait and ask the cashier to check the price for me. Thats brilliant for £11 thanks for mentioning it!

I didn't have time to look at the brushes last time I was in Superdrug, so I think I'll go back and have a good look at them this week. I'm pretty sure they were on 3 for 2 in my local store at that point as well so I hope the promotion is still running. How are you liking the ones you bought, Luceuk?

I'd also love to know this! It seems it's only available outside the US.

yknow, the prices for GOSH (at least here in canada) don't really sound "drugstore" to me.

ditto that!

i just bought an eyeshadow quad and a waterproof eyeliner yesterday. $15 and $10 respectively. on sale.

but i figured i'd give them a try and see how they perform. Shopper's Drug Mart is only 20 minutes away while my nearest MAC counter is a little over an hour away.

I still really like it, but it did shead quite a few hairs at first but has stopped now. I can't really compare how dense it is compared to the MAC 187 because I don't have it, but thick enough for foudation and blush.

I love the eyeshadow brushes they are really good and haven't shead at all.

 

[ritchieramone]

That sounds promising - thanks!

I could do with a couple of new eyeshadow brushes so I'll give these a go. I might pick up one of the 187 dupes as well; I'm giving my mum my 187SE so it would be useful to have a similarish back-up for my full size one.

 

[Ang9000]

I picked up some of the velvet touch liners the other day & they last forever!!! In Superdrug everything in GOSH is 3 for 2, not just brushes & offer is on till 10th June!

I'm going back for more!

 

[Luceuk]

I just ruined the Duo-fibre brush. I was washing my brushes but got a bit impatient that it wasn't drying so put my hairdryer on a low setting. But the white part of the end burnt and has gone awful and smelt disgusting. I think I'll buy the MAC 187 tomorrow.

 

[ritchieramone]

Oh no! Well, that was a short but happy life for your brush!

Here are the ones I bought yesterday (both are clickable)-




I've only had time to have a quick go of them but they're pretty decent for the price so far. They were £11 for the 187 dupe, £8 for the 'XL eyeshadow brush' and £5 for the eyebrow/eyelash comb, so they came to £19 for all 3 with the Superdrug offer,

 

[trollydolly]

i bought the 187 dupe today and its really good. its not as dense as the 187 but it still works really well. i bought it to use with my blushcremes. il try and post some photos at some point comparing it to the 187.

i like gosh! the pencil eyeliners are really good, but at the moment i'm tempted at bluish-greenish liquid eyeliner with kind of a metal shine to it... it really is such a bold, summery colour i cannnot describe ... and they have a sheer blue liploss as a summer limited edition too... i think it will be mine soon

They're not

but as persephonewillo suggested give them a try when they go on sale, which might be more often than you think because they don’t seem to advertise their prices much, let alone when they go on sale

I love their liquid eyeliners! The same one (I think) you’re describing is a beautiful kinda metallic blue-green with a golden sheen #11. Test them out when you’re in the store & you’ll see that they last extremely long
...and I mean long as in ‘I-swatched-it-on-the-back-of-my-hand-and-it-was-still-there-a-day-and-a-half-later’ long…YUP!

Gosh is now in Canada! At select Shoppers Drug Marts.

Go to their website, click store locations, type in your city, province. In the advanced section below where you type your city etc, there is a section called Beauty. Scroll through the cosmetics selection, pick Gosh and it will tell you which locations in your city/town carry this line.

I haven't tried this line yet but plan on going this week to see the products. I can't hardly wait!

Oops! I realized after I typed this that others have mentioned its available in Canada. I should have read all the posts. You can delete this if you need to.

I bought the Duo colour Powder brush a couple of weeks ago and really like it! It looks like a giant foundation brush and was £11. It's fab for blush and powder, great size as it fits the whole cheekbone to contour upwards.

What I will say is though, make sure you leave it long enough to dry, otherwise it doesn't got back into shape properly. I actually washed it one night then didn't put it back with the rest of my brushes until the following night, and it was fine then! Love it
