The Top 5 - Things I'd Repurchase

I got the idea for this one after watching a video from Lisasz09, only she picked 10 items. I thought 5 items might fit into my somewhat neglected series. So, here are 5 things that I would repurchase (and I actually have for several of them!).


-Urban Decay Primer Potion - helps my eye shadow last longer, stay brighter and prevents creasing. Awesome stuff! I'm using several of the mini-genie bottles that came with palettes, haven't needed to buy a tube of it for over a year.
-Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy - basically a slightly sticky primer that turns your eye shadow into awesome. Makes colours brighter and shows the true complexity of those gorgeous mineral eye shadows (it's especially amazing with Fyrinnae or Aromaleigh or Sassy or or or....). My tube is almost done, I've got a new one already.
-Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow "Skinny Jeans" - metallic taupe cream shadow, just gorgeous. I use this so much when I can't be bothered with anything more complicated than smearing a bit of this over my lids.
-MAC Fluidline "Blacktrack" - my first gel liner I ever bought! I've had a couple of these over the years and despite owning and using several other black gel liners, I still go back to this one. It only requires one layer and it doesn't smear. Love it.
-The Body Shop Hemp Hand Protector - I have been using this for a very long time and it's the best thing to prevent my hands turning into a sore mess of cracked, dry skin. Work requires liberal use of hand sanitiser and frequent hand washing. Using this (along with Lush's Lemony Flutter) keep my hands from suffering.

What 5 products would you repurchase?

  4. Two of my "will always rebuy these" items are on your list, Skinny Jeans and the Urban Decay primer. My local Sephora finally got that one in sensible tube packaging by the way. So much better!

    (Am I the only one having problems with the OpenID feature, btw? It used to work, but now when I put in my WordPress name I get an error.)

  5. Definitely UDPP too, I cut open one of the mini-genie bottles yesterday and got SO MUCH PRODUCT out of it. I was stunned. I thought there would be hardly anything left in it, and wow. I've got enough for a couple of months at least now in a little pot.

    I have repurchased/received as a gift Lush's Lemony Flutter several times now, it's an essential as far as I'm concerned. I'd also have to say my Lush moisturiser, Lily Lolo foundation and I'm not sure on number five...

  6. Oh my goodness! 4 items on your list are stuff that I will repurchase! The only item that didn't make my list is the Body Shop one! But then, I don't shop at Body Shop...
    I thought Lemony Flutter would make the top 5, I can't live without mine.

  7. Have wanted to try Skinny Jeans for the longest time, one day I will get around to it! Great post, from the top of my head one thing I will never stop repurchasing is Porridge soap from LUSH - I used to use seperate shower gels and body exfoliants and all the extras for the shower, when this does all that in one little bar :)

  8. I have the hand protector and I love it. I usually only use it in the winter time because that's when I get dry skin but it's amazing. And I have heard great things about the pixie epoxy.

  9. Totally agree with you about Hemp Hand Protector, I haven't been able to find a hand cream that compares. Does an amazing job!

  10. I totally agree with you on UDPP and Blacktrack! Skinny Jeans is amazing as well. Another thing I would (and have) repurchased is MAC Plushlash Mascara, as well as plain old Oil of Ulay moisturizer.
