Since finding beauty review I have found that when I'm out window shopping and I come across sales especially I tend to pull out my phone and check beauty review before I buy things now ..... Please tell me im not the only one that does this

I don't do this when I'm out because it would use up my data really quick but I definitely do my research on here before going to physical stores. As far as online shopping if I see a good deal on something online, you bet the tab next to my cart online is the Beauty Review website.

I forget to do this, but would LOVE it if I had an App, where I just scan the product bar code and it took me to the review page!

I check before I go shopping stunningsimplicity, and I only buy products that are on Beauty Review.

I'm Not that organised MareeB, normally is when I'm window shopping and see stuff on sale and think it's a good deal but then I have to check it out to make sure it's worth it on beauty review first.

I do this to some degree but usually I check the reviews before going to the store so I have had a chance to make up my mind about a product.  I love that app ideal Qweenkaren how useful would that be but also dangerous to my wallet  :)

I do have a quick look. The last thing I looked at was a day and night cream. Definately need to use it this weekend to look some stuff up.

I always use BR to research products before buying them.  I tend to add products to my "products I want list" so that when the time comes to replace my cleanser, moisturiser or a makeup item, I check that list first to see if there's a product I've already read up about and am keen to try.

Lol... You are not only one. I do same thing but not during shopping. If I do want something, make sure I research thoroughly about all products. I make sure during shopping my totally mind is there so I know what I am buy or why not.

I try my hardest not to use wifi when I'm out (I'm already on the internet enough at home, I don't need to be glued to my phone when I'm out too!). I do use the reviews on here to shop though. Sometimes I forget and just impulse buy (ok a lot of times I do that), so I check the reviews when I get home.
Believe it, Be it.

I have a decent data plan so yes usually I use my phone to check reviews when I'm out. But if I'm really tempted and its not something there is reviews on I generally buy it anyway.

Yup! I usually check the site before I get anything, you're not alone! I also find I trust some peoples reviews over others as well but maybe that's just me :-P

I totally use BR for buying new make up and skin care - it's half the reason I joined! I was recently wanting to buy a new highlighter - I got the beautiful Becca mini one as a freebie when I bought Becca primer, and I loved it to death. Literally. It looks amazing on, but the powder breaks up and spills too easily, so a lot goes to waste. Anyway, suffice to say I spent a long, long time researching highlighters on BR before finally settling on buying a Benefit one (that just happens to be part of a kit with other cool stuff...). But pretty much every other cosmetic and skin care stuff I'be bought on recent times is post-BR researching.

If I have something running out and I start looking in advance but sometimes it is just an impulse buy that's i've read someone's review in the past.

I do this alot! BR is my go to before purchasing a product. If it's something that catches my eye I might just impulse buy it before reading reviews but when it comes to something I'm not 100% sure on I will read reviews to make an informed decision :)

I used to absolutely be obsessed and not buy anything unless it was on BR and I could read or write a review on it. But lately I have been not buying so much and I haven't been checking BR as much. However if it is an uber expensive product I always come here first.
