Talking of Lancome pretty powders and lipsticks, have you seen the Golden Hat collection photos? http://www.beautycrazed.ca/2011/09/lancome-holiday-2011-collection-in.html
Now that's another must have powder! Plus the lipsticks are so gorgeous, especially the one on the left!

I only wanted the GWP because it contained the new L'Absolu Nu Lipstick in 302 which I've been meaning to buy for ages now (mostly because of the packaging - it has hearts on it - so pretty!) the colour itself is not very unique but the formula is great and its not as sheer as I expected it to be! I also like Hynose Mascara but I probably won't try any of the creams as my skin gets irritated when I change my routine! Plus I prefer my inexpensive Olay cleansers and moisturisers :)

I'm being so good (for me!) and avoiding MAC this month I think. My account just can't take the abuse! I was tempted by Avenue Fluidline and Carbonized Eye Shadow but I like to swatch first. I know if I go to swatch, I'll definitely end up buying something so I'm just going avoid the shops!

I think Styledriven looks interesting but I'm hoping it is perm, so I can swatch and buy when I have some money. I have to stop buying little bits of makeup here and there from the drugstores too! Thay all add up and for those prices, I could buy one lovely item from Guerlain or Chanel.

Talking about drugstore items, I got my hands on Sleek Oh So Special finally and I love it! The shades are beautiful.

The new Max Factor Elixir range is also out and on offer in Superdrug. I got a lipstick which I've just reviewed. It's absolutely lovely.

L'Oreal also have a new range out, called Intenstifier. It's a range of eye products designed to enhance your eye colour, with black based mascaras and superliners in green, purple and blue. I was very tempted by the superliners because I use my black one everyday and have done for years! But I kept telling myself that I have 100s of different coloured eyeliners and managed to stay away! Woo for willpower lol!
ok the superliners are something that i love too! i shall have to check them out! :)

I saw this on BritishBeautyBlog! Everything looks so pretty! I like all 3 lipstick on the left and of course the powder! The nail polishes also look tempting... *uh-oh!*

As I thought it would, my MAC orders arrived yesterday while I was at my daughter's school. Luckily, though, my son got up in time to receive it.

I'm liking everything I got, especially Mythical, Stunner, Avenue and the Shadesticks. My 226 is reasonably pointed, so I'm happy with that, and the 211 looks and feels like it's going to be perfect for my eyeliner. The 128 brush feels very smooth and I'm looking forward to trying it out.

Oh Oh Oh is very much a My Lips But Better shade on me, despite the way it looks in the tube.

I was in Brighton yesterday and came across a MAC store so I snuck inside for a quick peek. Stunner blush caught my eye, but I'm worried the pigmentation might not be enough to show up on me. I lost my NARS Deep Throat blush a while back (which seems to be a vaguely similiar shade?) so I might just buy that again instead. I also swatched the Matchmaster foundation... it had a very similiar feel (and odour, oddly enough) to Studio Fix Fluid, which was always a bit too yellow for me, so maybe the Matchmaster shades might work better for me. Need to go back and investigate further!

They also had a display out with the Turquatic fragrances, so this definitely seems to be going into stores and not just online only.

Does anyone know how long the 10% offer at Debenhams will last till? I want a quite a few things but I don't think I can afford it all!

Thanks!

I think I can only get the Prelude quad than, I might see if I can buy something else so I get the bonus points. Debenhams always seem to have 10% off when I can't afford anything! Lol

That's right! And Chanel is included in the sale too. :) Plus the bonus points offer is still going. Sadly, the Guerlain fall collection is still not up, but I have just placed an order for a bit more Mac, so hopefully it'll be up tomorrow. I ordered Mythical after all the talk about it (it is pretty, I did swatch it) and the bright pink lip pencil from Styledriven. Oh and Avenue is in stock again and I decided to get it after all. Not that I'm indecisive or anything, lol. :D

I bought a few bits from Mac Me Over when I went to nottingham on Thursday and I love the bits I've played with so far (its been a busy weekend with very little time to play). I can definitely see moleskin e/s becoming a "go to item" in my makeup bag :) All I have on my eyes today is moleskin with teddy kohl & plenty of mascara & I feel fab! :)
