I bought my first ever Chanel today :)

I got my £20 of loyalty vouchers from my Frasercard last week, and while the kids are away I decided it was time to spend them. I went to House Of Fraser and headed straight for Chanel to see the Illusion D'Ombre eyeshadows for myself. The SA swatched Illusoire on my hand, and I was in love! I also tried Épatant, and loved that too. I couldn't decide which to get, then reasoned that since I had £20 in vouchers I could get both. The SA told me they were permanent anyway. She was wearing Illusoire herself. When I told her it was my first ever Chanel purchase, she gave me a couple of trial sized mascaras too.

I saw Peridot nail polish, and it's beautiful, but I'm not paying their prices for nail polish.

Superdrug has Sleek Pout Paints on 3 for 2, so I got myself some of those, along with 3 MeMeMe shadows (also on 3 for 2) and a couple of Barry M Dazzle Dusts to add to my collection, and a packet of wipes since I had Dazzle Dusts all over my hand and fingers lol. This weekend, starting today, they are giving £10 of points on your loyalty card if you spend £30 or more, so I have boosted my total on there.

Got loads to do tonight, as I have to finish sorting stuff out and tidying the house ready for when my kids come home tomorrow :)

Sorry (dunno where my head is today!) I can't seem to find the polishes either...who'd have thought Selfridges would be the most reliable site when it comes to new releases!

I was in the London Selfridges this Friday and saw the YSL Black Collection, with beautiful nail polishes and really lovely gel eyeliners.

I loved the bronzey black nail polish but the bottles were tiny (6ml!) and I thought they were too pricey. The gel eyeliners though, were a creamy, pigmented delight! They are pricey too, at £20 but they are so rich. I will definately be picking up a couple of the shades when the collection hits Debenhams. Does anybody have a clue when that'll be?

I picked up a few goodies from Chanel too, including the Peridot nail polish. I'm having to really convince myself not to go back for a second as a back up, because they're just too pricey! But ohhhh that colour is SO me! But I have way too many Chanel backups! It's a bad habit! I'm telling myself many companies will come out with dupes soon...help?!

As gorgeous as it looks, I've always found the Night Series eyeshadows quite difficult to work with. Scrangie has a good review up on her website and Karlasugar has great swatches too. Hope that helps!

Oh and I saw this instore on Friday and it was the same as always for me. The eyeshadows LOOK amazing in the pan, but the heavy black base in most of them is too chalky for my liking. I'm sure they'd be better wet, but I don't have the patience for that!

I'm after the YSL polishes! I think its coming out on other counters on September 20th but don't quote me on that I just remember reading it somewhere :)

I have to ask is the blue polish from the collection similar to Dior Tuxedo or the blue polish that came out with the YSL fall collection?

The regular bottles are 10ml and only 1.50 more! They are not going to look as pretty next to my other YSL polish *darn* LOL!

It seems like Debenhams are putting up the Chanel fall collection, although nothing is clickable yet. Gotta order Peridot!!!

Does anyone know when the Guerlain fall collection is out? Want to check out the new lipsticks and eyeshadows. :)

As I understand it, all NARS eyeshadows are a wet/dry formula, so you can do both. I think Karlasugar swatched the Night Series palette both wet and dry on her blog?

Personally I am still lemming after the Makeup Your Mind eye set on the NARS website, it has a 6-shade eyeshadow palette plus a few other eye products. I did just buy the Douceurs de Paris palette last month though, so am trying to resist getting another palette!
