Those are the colours I got, too :) I'm currently wearing the purple, seeing as I'm wearing purple clothing (which I do more often than not). I would say it's a sort of blackcurrant colour - very pretty.

If anyone's interested in the Nails Inc magnetic polishes, there's a site called Buyapowa http://www.buyapowa.com/deal/34 and you can buy the purple magnetic nail polish for £7. Basically, the more people buy, the cheaper, and now it's at £7 (the best price0, so if you get in quickly, you can grab one for £7 and free p&p. I haven't used the site yet, but Lipglossiping recommended it and I know she's gettting one too. I've placed an order as well. :)

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

I'm back from Paris, had an amazing trip last week and ate far too much gorgeous French food..!

I went shopping with my mum today, she's been very tired and working way too much so I booked her into Bobbi Brown for a makeover. The MA was really lovely and did a super job, mum was so thrilled with it. She ended up getting quite a few products, including the Creamy Concealer and corrector, Powder Pink pot rouge and Sandy Gold cream eyeshadow (all some of my favourite BB products). I got a Sheer Pressed powder and will probably go back for the Ivy shimmer ink, it's an iridescent forest green and just lovely.

We also bought some of the Boots 17 magnetised nail polishes for my sister, the smokey teal colour looked absolutely gorgeous. They were 2 for 3, so we also got her the smokey purple and graphite colour too.

I also bought the Smashbox AM/PM kit from Debenhams, so now have to be very good for a while - need to save for the MAC Xmas collection!

Mint green MES? I haven't checked the holiday thread in a while, must go and see what I've been missing!

Yes, she really enjoyed it. I have to say I really rate Bobbi Brown for their makeovers, the lady was so helpful and explained every step very well.

Ooh, just checked the holiday thread, I will be buying those MES for sure! And do you think the glosses are Dazzleglasses?

Does anyone know where I can buy those little screwtop jars/containers that you can use for pigments. (Like the ones the Mad Minerals came in - Lou) I've decided I will sell my pigments, just take out a bit and sell the rest. I have so many and I hardly use them, especiallly the big jars, they'd last forever and beyond.

Baaah! The holiday thread has been updated! I haven't had a chance to come on Specktra for a while so I need to catch up!


I went to Style Birmingham yesterday and I had so much fun! Got sooooo many freebies - definitely going again next year!

I caved and bought the Ivy shimmer ink already! Ahh I am so weak. I ran out of my Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation so I thought I'd better take advantage of the 10% off and 500 bonus points at Debenhams. So I got the gel liner to make it up to 40 pounds. (See how I'm justifying my moment of weakness here...?

)

Yes, I'm out of date on the holiday thread too - need to do some catching up! I don't think a full colour story has been posted yet unfortunately :(

Yep, that's how I get sucked in all the time! I've had a letter from Debenhams about their half price sale and also a 1000 bonus point offer if you spend £50 and pay with your Debenhams Gold Card. I've actually maxed out my credit card for the month, so I ended up paying off some quickly so I can take advantage (teher's alsoa 10% off code, not sure if it works on make up). Even though I said I wouldn't spend more on make up this month!

By the way, how does the Bobbi Brown Ivy shimmer ink compare to Mac Ivy fluidline? Thx.

Ivy Shimmer is alot darker than Ivy, they're actually completely different from each other. Ivy shimmer is a forest green with some sparkle (more apparent in the pot) and Ivy is more bright with very little black undertones compared to Ivy shimmer, HTH :)

ebay sells the little jars very cheaply :) and let me know what shades you have in case you have one that I don't!! :)

Thanks, I have found some on eBay. I will have to go through my huge stash, work out what I want to keep less or more of, portion them out and write a list, and then I'll let you know. :) I'm keeping some full size ones like Pink Opal and White Gold, but I just don't use a lot of the colours and there's so much, I really need to curb my stash. I'm also working on a blog sale for other items, will let you know when that's gone live.

I have had a look around but can't find the release date for the Fall collection.

I want to go in and grab the bluest Lightscapade they have on launch day haha, but the US didn't get it on the first thursday this time around did they? which made me worry that it won't be when I think it is.

In the US it's not always the first Thursday. I'm pretty sure it will be next week for us though.
