Styledriven is up on the Mac website as well as Matchmaster foundation, Opulash Optimum Black, Turquatic and Mac Me Over! I didn't realise there were so many collections coming out this month. Have we even seen swatches for Styledriven??? I'm so overwhelmed! I need to take a trip to the counter on Thursday and swatch everything, then order stuff from Debenhams I think.

Edit: And new make up bags, and Prime Focus, and a Signature Tote! Okay, I'm not interested in those, but what a lot of new stuff!

Gosh that is a lot. I hadn't realised Matchmaster was coming out so soon. Must remember to look out for that next time I'm instore!

Smart! I wish I had an iPhone. I do have a smart phone but it outsmarts me so I don't really use the web access function.

Enjoy your NARS :)

Just looked at 'Goodbyes' again, and can't believe that Semi-Precious and Cinematics are there so soon!

i guess with all the new stuff they had no choice? :(

i just placed my order - i bought the lady grey quad, mythical, prince noir and a pink gloss from style driven :) there is still about another £50 worth of stuff that i would like but sadly that will have to wait!

im going to go in store tomorrow and look at everything. I wish they would space out the collections more, like even one at the start of the month and one half way through. Its too much to take in all at once

yes you are right. it can be far too much! although this is the first month where i really have felt overwhelmed and sad because i could never afford everything i wanted in one go.

hmm i didnt really want anything so badly from this collection, the only thing i HAD to have was the 226, i liked stunner blush and curvaceous lipglass but i didnt NEED them the way i have needed other things before

i thought a lot of this collection was dupeable, i'm not saying there arent some really nice products in it, but i felt like i already had things that could dupe the things in this collection

like shaihi and ivy fluid line were just too close to the fluidlines in this collection and avenue looked like that black pearglide with the gold sparkles to me

cant wait for posh paradise, that collection is going to empty my bank account

i went to swatch the new chanel shadows today and i fell in love with them, i cant afford them so i'm so glad they are perm

the first i will get is the khaki silvery taupey one, the black and the purple for sure... i'm going to gatwick on the 17th to mexico, so i will try and pick them up duty free!

Well I don't mind waiting if I can save 5 quid, it's not like I don't have any make up to tide me over.

I told hubby he can have the children tomorrow because I'm going to Kingston, can't wait to see everything, then I'll make a list. Is the whole of Styledriven perm? I might not get too much from that if it is. Not that I want too much from Mac me over either, just a couple of lippies, Stuner blush and the green fluidline, maybe Social Light gloss, but like Lou, I have soooo many lipglosses (500+). I now have 8 empties, so will pick up a free lipstick tomorrow, yay!

Just saw all the new collections that are up on the MAC site :s I'm so glad Styledriven is perm! I am hopefully going on thursday so I'll be able to swatch everything and pick up my MAC Me Over goodies.
I hate how long Debenhams take for delivery and plus they've increased the bonus points offer from £25 to £40 so I'm just going to pick up all my MAC stuff in store now

Does anyone else have the urge to buy everything when they're PMS-ing or is it just me?...wish I had money...

woah!!! can i come and play with your glosses please?! hee hee! you have so many! but yes cutting back could be good! my main concern is that some could go off before i finish them. i have had to b2m some of them when they still have half left because they smelled weird and such

I think you'll love the Chanel shadow, Lou! I wore mine yesterday, and it's quite green, and very sparkly. I think I put a bit too much on, though, as I ended up with sparkly bits under my eyes lol

lol! yup i must remind myself to use a small amount on the brush then! Are they in glass pots like paint pots out of interest?
Yup there in cute little glass jars and the lid is plastic with the Chanel logo embossed on it!

awesome!! i'm excited to add to my little chanel collection! hee hee! :)

i also had a thought when i was playing with my lip glosses the other night. i actually need to take them out with me so i can re-apply throughout the day! i always leave them at home for fear of loosing them! :p

Yes, it does sound a lot doesn't it? Not all Mac and high end though, I probably have 20 or so old "drugstore" ones that could do with binning, some can be as old as 5-6 years. Ooops.

:) Only is the keyword here, hehe :) I have maybe about 10, but I'm not really a lipgloss person. I probably do own about 30-40 lipsticks.

I bought Emerveille and Epatant (the peach and silvery-green one), when I was flying to London last Thursday, and I am loving both of them. They are super pretty and long-lasting, and you need just a tiny bit, because they are so pigmented. I used the brush to apply them to my eyelids, and then smoothed them out with my finger, and that worked out great for me.
I think I will be buying the Ebloui and Illusoire next.

I can't believe how many new things they have released on the same day on Mac website! And 226 brush is there too! I was wondering if it would be store-only for UK as well, but it isn't, luckily.
I think I'll only be hauling the brush. I am very tempted by Carbonized and Creamy Bisque e.s. though. I really want to swatch Styledriven e.s. Someone said they are very similar to Peacocky ones, and those are my absolute favourites!

Did you manage to pick up Topkapi quad in Selfridges? All this talk of the Chanel eyeshadows makes me want them, even though I really really don't need them and they're so pricey. I'm trying to resist very hard here! :)

No I didn't manage to go shopping in Central London, like I was planning to. My sister's boyfriend was free that day, so we all went to the Museum of London instead. My wallet was really happy about that, since I've just bought myself loads of Metier de Beaute eyeshdows, including the ever-elusive Corinthian, yaaaaaaaaaas! :D

Have you seen new images of Guerlain holiday collection?
I saw them a few days ago and thought about you straight away! If you haven't. I'll look up the linky!
