Oh well, money saved! I've not seen the Guerlain one in person, so was only going off photographs and they seemed to have a very similar sheen



My EL package has arrived - love the eyeshadows, especially the lilac. I also got a free 'Beautiful' perfume sample, which has an old-fashioned, almost soapy smell. I remember smelling something like that in the 70s!. My free mascara is the Double Wear Zero-Smudge Curling Mascara.

Mine hasn't come yet. I don't like EL fragrances, so I didn't ask for one, I asked for the serum and the mascara sample instead.

I'm trying to be very good and not buying too much stuff, unless something is very unique or very pretty. On that note, my OPI Save Me nail polish has just come in the post, it is so pretty!

I went Debenhams today and they had the Chanel spring collection out! I spent wayy more than I was supposed to as I bought Flirt Rouge Coco Shine (my first one!), Paradis Rouge Coco and Horizon blush which I love! I would have got alot more if I could but I had to stick with just 3 items mainly because the blush was so expensive! £46!!

I'm going to wait until after MAC Naturally collection is out to get my 2nd haul. I want Chalys Rouge Coco, Superstition Rouge Coco, April n/p and maybe June. I swatched Tigerlily e/s and I'm not sure it will work on me!

Also the Guerlain Spring collection was out in HoF but I didn't have time to swatch anything!

 

[Anitacska]

Ooh, so exciting!

My EL order came, can't believe I finally have the teal and lilac eyeshadows.

I'm still waiting for Kiko to get back to me, their customer service is shit, I would discourage everyone from ordering from their website.

No sign of my EL order being processed yet.
I might have cancel and just order it all from Boots.
They seem to have all the colours now.

 

[Anitacska]

DON'T DO IT!!! The Boots website has had the teal and lilac up for ages now (I know, had been checking), but once you try to put them in your basket, they're showing as sold out/out of stock. Maybe try contacting EL about your order?

I didn't realize that EL doesn't send out shipment confirmations. I've just checked my account, and looks like the parcel was handed over to Yodel.
Fingers crossed they'll try to deliver tomorrow, so that my sis can receive the package before she leaves....
That's really lame of Boots then, I hate when things like that happen :/

how big is the blush? i haven't had a chanel one before! is it like the mac blushes or nars perhaps?

 

[Alisha1]

Oh also I forgot to say! The SA was really nice at Chanel and she showed me the colour chart for the summer collection! The good news is that it looks small; 2 bronzers (like last years but thin stripes), 2 Rouge Coco Shines, 2-3 polishes and 2-3 glossimers! I absolutely love my bronzer from last year just because it's so versatile - 3 products in one!

There's also going to be a small collection released in Feb that consists of 3 red nail polishes

The blush contains 15g worth of product which is alot compared to NARS (4.8g) and MAC (6g), so I guess the price is probably worth it considering the amount of product you get!

 

[Eleentje]

Good to hear that the blush is a good buy!
I will buying it as well, and Cruel Gardenia, when it pops up on Debenhams website...

I went into Boots this evening to get painkillers and saw the lady putting out the spring collection!! I asked her if I could get some and she said yes. Within seconds the girls from the other make up counters were standing round and we were all swatching like crazy hahaha!

I went a bit mad and got lots of things........blush, quad, both eyeshadows (they looked lovely on my skin tone) the 3 nail polishes, flirt rouge shine, Petilant Glossimer and the Grenat eye pencil as they dont do the cassis one anymore. I used my double points voucher so got lots of points!!

I got home and remembered that I didnt buy the painkillers......!!

 

[Anitacska]

I got a shipment confirmation e-mail. But in any case, glad it's been processed. And, yes I hate that with Boots, you try to put things in your basket and turns out they're not available.

Lol that's something I would totally do! Wow you got some great goodies! I'm not sure about Tigerlily e/s, it looks very pretty but as I have yellow undertones it might make me look more yellow or it might even fade into my skin :/ I definitely have to try this one on when I go again.

I wish Naturally wasn't coming out next week so I can buy all my Chanel goodies now!

 

[Anitacska]

Lol, that is funny! Great haul though. I really want the quad and the blush and maybe a lipstick or two and possibly a glossimer. I've been using my glossimers for the last couple of weeks or so and I have so many, I really only need another one if it's unique. The pink one (Bagatelle) is the one I'm interested in, but maybe not, I have many pinks already.

I just checked the price of last years summer bronzer on the Boots website (not instock of course) and it was £32.5 for 14g of product!! That's a crazy price hike and I sooo hope that the Summer bronzer nor the highlighter from the pre-fall collection will be this high!

 

[Anitacska]

The holiday highlighter was £42 I think, not sure how big that is.
