I am also terrible with names, but I keep the receipts, as they usually have the SA's name on it. That's the only way I can remember :)
That's a really good idea, I'll have to remember that! Only thing is, I didn't actually buy any Dior yesterday! (I wouldn't have done from John Lewis anyway - I'd pop into Boots for my points!)

Nazia, a few pictures for you of my Turquoise Opal nails. So pretty! I hope the Models Own nail polishes will be like this too.





Just saw this - isn't it lovely?! I couldn't stop admiring my nails when I wore it. Every other moment it seemed as though I was snapping pics to try and capture the prettiness!

Mine didn't come today, I ordered around noon, so maybe just missed the cut off point. Also they must have had so many orders yesterday.

Speaking of nail polishes, my remaining 5 international packages came today (the postman must think I'm nuts), and 4 of them were nail polishes. I got the full Zoya holiday set, 4 China Glaze holiday ones (including the Mac dupe - for £2!), 3 Color Club ones (I have actually bought the whole set from TK Maxx, but at this price, my daughters can have them), OPI Rainbow Connection, and 6 random Zoya ones (2 of them were free because the woman took 4 weeks to send the Zoya holiday polishes). Here are some pictures. :)









Oh and there's another Boots shopping event coming up on the 10th! £12 worth of points for every £50 spent.

I have just tried to place the order, using the code, but when I get to the final stage, the order total shows up without the 20% disc. Did anyone else have this issue? I'm doing it via my iPhone!

My email from Models Own arrived almost exactly 24 hours from when I placed the order, to say my order is complete and they will rush it to me as soon as they can. I ordered just before half past noon yesterday. I actually read on Facebook just now that they have sold out of one of the colours already, but will be getting more stock around the end of November.

LOL, Angi - I went through Topcashback and used a payment card that collects points too, for my Debenhams order (it all helps, doesn't it). I don't have one of their beauty cards though, as there's no Debenhams in our town for me to get a card from, and I assume points can only be spent in branch too?

I got a notice in the post from Boots today about their next Christmas evening on 10th November, so I'm hoping I'll be able to go to that (fingers crossed)

The House of Fraser brand event has started now online and does not include any makeup brands as far as I can tell :/ I did ask an MA at the Chanel counter and she said Chanel were not going to be participating

My Debenhams package never arrived today but I did find the Chanel Christmas collection out in House of Fraser today :) So I obviously had to treat my self to a little birthday present! I couldn't afford alot so I only got the Rouge Allure in Enivree and the Rouge Allure Laque in Empire (which I love). The Chanel MA packed my goodies in a pretty Chanel gift box with a pretty flower on it :) I will post pictures later!

I also got to swatch everything in the collection and I will definitely be going back for the highlighter, the eyeshadow duo and Sweet Beige glossimer. I'm still not sure about the polish and eyeliner yet :s

I wanted the set as well but it had sold out by the time I added it to my basket! Guess its a good thing cause I can't really afford it anyway plus I bought loads of makeup this week thanks to my birthday money I got from my family :)

Ok people, who wants to see some quick Beetlejuice swatches (on paper)? I swatch all my nail polishes (in a little notebook AND a nail chart lol) and most of the time they go dull or absorb weirdly into the paper. Not with these babies! They're gorgeous, vibrant and stunning irl. You need these in your makeup lives!

On to the pictures, sorry for so many. This is under artificial light, 3 coats of each shade. In the first few pics, going down, it is: Pinky Brown, Purple Blue, Aqua Violet. After that it is Golden Green, then Emerald Black.





Sooo yummy for a nail polish fanatic like me! What do you guys think? Lou, this is a set of 8 different photos, not one massive one, but if I'm breaking any rules, feel free to edit!

It worked on my pc, but unfortunately I missed out on Let's Skate pp, the item I wanted the most from this collection.
I still managed to spend 100 pounds on my order, I have no willpower, sigh!
At least one of the items in my order is going to be a prezzie for my sister, so I don't feel awfully bad. She really wanted Chanel Biphase makeup remover, after she tried some of mine, so she's getting that for Christmas.
Other than that I bought Shimmermint, Warm eye palette, Fix + (it was mentioned here, and I realized I needed to get it too), Guerlain Perles de Nuit (instead of Snow Globe) and Mac #7 lash.

Happy birthday, Alisha!!!


That quad is very pretty - I didn't buy any but I was really tempted! The shadows seem huge too, which makes it good value (if they are!). I love those eyeshadow sticks. I keep going on about them but they're so vibrant and long lasting. Tbh, even though the price is good, it should be better! If you look at the Italian site, they're much cheaper in Euros. I wish we got that same value!
Indeed..! I wonder if they have stores in Spain or Germany, as I will be going there next month, perhaps the euro pricing will be the same. I definitely saw a Kiko when I was in Paris in September, but as it was a Sunday it was closed :-(

Let's Skate is still available on the Debenhams website.

Not when you click on it to put it in your basket, Anita. I tried a few times :/

Kiko should be available in Germany.
