No one forced them, she’s found a niche and it works. Fair play to her, before I’m accused of being Pippa, I’m not and I’ve never bought any of her stuff.

We can hardly blame Pippa if people want to purchase her overpriced, poor quality products. Same goes for Lisa lust, if people are stupid enough to buy it, it’s on them not the seller. IMO

Yeah seems it’s odd a lot of bloggers are not raving about it, like they do with so su and Aimee Connolly etc - she must not have given freebies!

Ya I don't think she does that with any of her stuff, the clothes, candles etc. But seeing as how she's not a makeup artist she really should have paid some of them to do looks with her makeup!! It looks nice enough but until I see someone like The Beautiful Truth do a honest review of it I just wouldn't bother with it tbh 🤷‍♀️

Actually just looked up the price, €50 for the eyeshadow pallet. Just too dear in my opinion.

People rave about Aimée Connolly’s because it’s worth raving about. I have lots of it & it’s really brilliant. Very refreshing to see a makeup artist like Aimée never use a filter & always give tips/advice about the range. The fact you can try it in pharmacies also helps. I wouldn’t buy anything without trying it. Up cosmetics is essentially Blank Canvas. I remember getting the Pippa palette, what a disappointment, zero pigment & that other palette they brought out, can’t remember the name, eyeshadow palette in brown packaging, my daughter wanted it, she said it was “crap” compared to her usual favorites like huda & Anastasia.

If I want to pay those prices I will buy CT.

I actually liked that brown blank canvas pallet!! 😂😂😂 but I've never used Huda or Anastasia... but again it's the price that's the problem and not being able to swatch stuff in the Pharmacy like you can with other brands!!
 
Just to rant about Brian Dowling for a min.. I normally don’t mind him but he’s so childish with his “birthday weekend” and “my birthday eve”, even his whole podcast was nearly centred around the fact that his mom died when he was a few weeks away from being forty. Would he ever grow the duck up?

very child like yes, nice to c their friendship lasted though on a side note
 
I’ll never understand why she doesn’t have Up stocked in Dunnes or pharmacies. I’d say no less than BT’s will do. I’ve lost count of how many things I’ve flung into the trolley in Dunnes it’s actually brill for having a mooch for a few beauty bits you don’t think you need until you see them. She’s missing out big time but I’d say her notions are keeping her from being stocked next to So Sue and Aimee. More fool her really

Agree completely, all the lockdowns it’s not as if it would have been flying out the door anyway - where does one get it anyway?
