Yes, Pixie...£22.50 is extortionate but some will pay it... just for the brand name.

Not a brass razoo!
Oh go on, LD...you know it would suit you, especially with a bit of manscara too.
Just add mangloss, stilettos, a wiggle, a strut.... and you’ve arrived!

They do not sell at rip off prices either - eye shadow currently retails at £6.
ST, l think, or l like to think that animals aren’t used so much for testing these days?

Yes, the other eyeshadows l saw were reasonably priced but unfortunately none were the colour l wanted.

Re: How Much Would You Spend On An Eyeshadow?

I have sensitive eyes so I always buy a product suited to my eyes.
Unfortunately, this means paying more but I don't mind.

I usually go for Clinique. It costs round about £20 but it lasts so long that the price isn't worth bothering about.

Re: How Much Would You Spend On An Eyeshadow?

I would not buy Clinique products.

Clinique is not cruelty-free.
It sells products in markets where animal testing is required by law. And whilst it's unclear if Clinique itself tests ingredients on animals, it is complicit in pre or post-market animal testing and its suppliers may test on animals too.

Clinique is owned by Estée Lauder and its official animal testing policy is not to test on animals except when required by law. Clinique is sold in mainland China, where animal testing is required by law.

My daughter used to use Clinique products but it brought her face out in rashes. She went to the doctor about it and was advised to discontinue using Clinique products. No rashes after. She just uses cheaper moisturiser now.

Interesting to see how many of these useless firms still make money out of exploiting cruelty to animals.
Thanks Tabs.

Your money, your choice how you spend it. I don't wear shadow any more but I'd never have spent more than £5 on any colour. Make up, like all these "miracle" face creams, is a huge con IMO. However, I would and do spend a ridiculous amount on perfumes. Each to their own.
