Yes, I actually bought one in Superdrug some time later, when I spotted one in the drawer (had to be sure lol). Seems identical apart from no cardboard sleeve and the writing on the back missing.

If I remember rightly, the seller had a few of them.

yeah i have never really missed out on anything either. when the manish collection launched i had my mum stalking the site for me (i was on a cruise when it launched so had no internet) my mum said it was the craziest thing i had ever asked her to do!


A work safe smokey eye FOTD - todays blog post is a nice smokey eye look that you can rock at work :) for anybody who is interested. you don't have to use the same pigment as i did but just use the technique for a similar effect :)

Temptalia has some Chanel pictures up for you all to drool over lol.

I love the look of the lipstick and gloss, and the shadows, but I am not going to be tempted - Chanel is too expensive for me

I've only ever missed out on one thing, and that was Neutral Pink eyeshadow from the N Collection. I was living Down Under at the time and the collection hadn't launched yet (they're always out very late there). Then I went travelling to Europe for 3 weeks, but as it had already launched in Europe so much earlier it was sold out when I arrived. Of course, by the time I returned home it had sold out back home too. I still reget not getting it! :-(

I saw a blogger I follow use Free To Be in a tutorial which is what made it a "must have" for me, I wish I could remember who it was. All I remember was that it looked gorgeous and I was like drooling, haha. Lucky Green is another I saw someone use in a tutorial, which again made me think "omgggg" haha. Both of them will definitely be bought with Ever Hip, but I'm going to try and buy it in reg. packagaing rather than with the flower imprint.

When I told my Mom about all of the drama surrounding the Bloggers Obsession collection she couldn't believe it. JW sold out in under 5mins on Canadian website, and it sold out first on the US website too. My CP just confirmed hers and mine were shipped today so I'm over the moon!

I'm not really interested in the fall collection, the only thing I really like is the green/gold nailpolish.

So...

I'm looking around online, making sure I know exactly what I want from Fashion Flower.. and I'm still not 100% sure on Growing Trend. I mean, I liked the first swatch I saw but then when I saw it on Temptalia I didn't.. but I'm still intrigued by it. What do you guys think?

Also was reading her post and she said like I believe someone else on here said, that the eye shadows are a lot more difficult to use due to the flower imprint, confirming even more that I'll buy them from the perm range instead.

Are there any good swatches out for SP yet? I saw a few when I googled earlier but I'd prefer some better ones before I make my mind up on the lipsticks.

The only swatches of the whole SP collection I've seen are:

I was also considering Growing Trend before Temptalia swatched it but I decided to pass as it doesn't seem that special - but thats my opinion!

Thanks so much! I quite like Gem of Roses and Musky Amethyst but they don't seem... I don't know. I will probably skip this whole collection. Which is good for my wallet, haha.

Yes I agree - I also figured there'll be something similar in the perm line that I'll come across eventually anyway. So long as I get Ever Hip I'm happy! :)

Yup Ever Hip is the only must have for me from FF

I'm not sure but Growing Trend does seem similar to Viva Glam Gaga 2 which you can check out :)

Oh well in that case Growing Trend is skipped too. Good stuff, can concentrate on adding perm shadows to my collection and getting Ever Hip. Win! Haha :)

Thanks for the link Alisha! I want Rare Find, Blue Sheen, Hint of Sapphire, Smoked Ruby, Mineral Mode and possibly Quartz Fusion. I was thinking of ordering online from MAC but found to my dismay that DHL Express has now been taken over by Yodel which is owned by HDNL. I wont be using their mail order service again........I just hope I manage to get the parcel I'm currently tracking. Does anyone know what courier Debenhams uses?

I hope the shadows don't sell out super fast as I want to buy them later on in the month! Fingers crossed - plus I only want two :)

I'm not sure what courier Debenhams use but when I placed my Surf Baby order with them my order which I placed after 5 was despatched the next day (which was a friday) and I received it on monday - I think there delivery has improved since the Wonder Woman collection, and MACs has turned rubbish since Quite Cute... :)
