The coverage is brilliant too, I never expected really good coverage from a powder but it's fantastic (I have skin bad enough to need medication for acne so that gives you some idea of how good the coverage is)

I have the UD Sureal Skin powder foundation which is good but I can't a good liquid foundation or concealer.

Ah I gave up on liquid foundation and concealer years ago, my skin hates it

Lol, I think I'm going to give up on liquid foundation unless I find a really good one and concealer is a must for me but I need one which isn't too heavy.

Again liquid concealer does not agree with my skin, I use a mineral concealer too and it gives brilliant coverage. I never expected it of a powder concealer but it really surprised me

Ooooo that sounds good :)

I might go for a BB cream concealer but I'm not sure....

I used to have reallly bad skin but ive been using Benefit Bo-ing concealer and BareMinerals foundation for over a year now and had hardly any breakouts. Really good coverage for just a powder too. Expensive, but they both last for a long while and if you mix the concealer with a bit of primer it spreads a long way.
I agree with Nat that mineral make up is so much better than liquid

'm assuming you're under a contract? depending on what company you're with you should be able to get a new Iphone under the insurance terms, also assuming that you went to the police and reported it stolen as the phone company will probably want an incident number so that you can prove it was stolen and you're not just trying to scam them... also (may have already done this) but you'll want to go into the nearest phone store of the company that you got the phone from and tell them it was stolen so that they can block the sim card for you otherwise chances are that the twat who stole it is going to run up a massive bill for you and you'll be the one that has to pay it... (sorry that was really off topic)

Yeah unfortunately I didn't have any insurance on it which is a massive shame! And yeah the first thing I did was get it blocked both the sim and the handset, I don't know what they'll be able to do with it because it had both a pin and now the blocks too.
My friends mam had a spare iPhone 3GS and she dropped it through my letter box this morning with a card saying I could lend it until the contract runs out, I nearly cried, I couldn't believe how nice that was of her!

But yeah I'll be able to take some photos tonight with it of the makeup I bought while i was at London if anyone is interested in seeing it :)

ah that's a shame but at least you've got it sorted with the blocks and stuff and that was really sweet of your friends mum :)
oh also don't know if you know this but you're phone should be covered under your house and contents insurance policy :) obviously don't tell them you were away on holiday while it was stolen though just say it was stolen from a secure location and it's been reported to the police ....
would love to see pics of all the makeup you bought while you were away :)

I wouldn't be able to anyway because it was the place I was staying who rang up the police because it was stolen there.

ah oh well at least you've got all the other stuff sorted and have a replacement phone for now :)
also new makeup :D
