The nail lacquers are permanent, aren't they? Means they can wait if need be. By Pro Palettes, do you mean the empty ones? If so, they are permanent too, so just Heavenly Creatures and Illustrated to concern myself with. Actually, I'm sure I read that HC is July for us, and the Pro Palettes, Nail Lacquers and Illustrated are August (although of course that is always subject to change)

I'm only interested in 2 or 3 lipsticks from HC at the moment, pending swatches of the mineralize stuff. The swirls don't entice me - I want to see the overall effect when worn.

From what I can tell from the Colour Story the nail lacquers are new/repromotes, so I'm not sure if they'll be LE or permanent. Pro Palettes - yes, empty ones. The new ones are permanent? If so that's alright.

As for HC I'm the same - only interested in a couple of lipsticks, but I know even pending swatches of the mineralize stuff I'll have no interest so it keeps costs low for me. I'm not a fan of mineralized products for some reason - something about them just doesn't jump out at me.

I tweeted about my Debenhams order and they tweeted back asking me to e-mail them, so I did so.

I've just received a reply, this was part of it.


Quote: [FONT=tahoma, arial, sans-serif]On this occasion once your order has been delivered if you contact us we will process a refund on the incorrect item that has been ordered. As a gesture of goodwill we would like you to keep this.

Then you are able to place an order for the actual item that you wish to order.[/FONT]



Which is fine, I'm happy with that.

I'll send back the first one and keep the second and re-order the correct one. Just a shame it had to happen to begin with.

No, I'm not at all excited about next month's Mac collections. I don't like the prolongwear lipsticks, the powder's useless imo, and those lip and cheek products I just don't need. It's just as well since I want pretty much everything from Heavenly Creatures and I'll be getting lots from the Guerlain collection plus a few bits from Chanel anf Clarins.


I went to London yesterday (to the Allergy and Gluten Free show) and ended up popping into Kensington High Street and went into the Boots there. Checked out the Dior collection again and decided I don't want the quints, but bought the pink cream eyeshadow (I had some bonus point vouchers) and at home I ordered the Glow Enhancing Bronzer in no 2, and also got Au Rose suntint in the end. I figured with 15% off it can't be that bad.

Dawn, you do get cashback even with the codes, I've had my e-mail about the first order already.

I also went to Superdrug and bought 3 L'Oreal lipsticks: Magnetic Coral, Electric Fuchsia and Metallic Coral. I also picked up two more Infallible eyeshadows (blue and white) and a Barry M nail polish. Phew! :)

How was the Allergy and Gluten Free show? For the second year we have failed to get there - my son is coeliac, but is always too busy to actually go! Hopefully next year! We went to Covent Garden as my elder daughter wanted some Doc Marten's for her birthday - saw my first every MAC shop, but somehow it wasn't too friendly - they sort of looked at us as if we were shop-lifting, and we left without buying anything! There was a Shu Uemara (spelling?) shop next door, but DD wanted to get home to revise, so didn't even go through the door!

I also want lots from the Guerlain Collection, and also quite a bit from the Clarins collection! Might have to order from HoF and collect in store though, or else get delivered from Debenhams to work! Not allowed any more deliveries at home, lol! I see that Body Shop are releasing some makeup tomorrow - how does Body Shop makeup rate?

They're just the normal Color Riche range, but there's 3 new summer colours out, I bought 3 of them, not the pink one, plus a coral one from the regular line.

It was very good, actually, bigger and better than the last few years'. I'm a coeliac myself and I love checking out (and tasting) the new foods. I tried the yummiest chocolate and cherry cake from M&S! I will definitely have to buy one of those when I next go to M&S. It was also really cool, I met the wife of my favourite singer (it's Joey Tempest from the band Europe, his wife has a company that makes gluten free cookies called Against The Grain, and she was there, so I went to talk to her). She must have thought I was a stalker, lol, but she was very polite and nice. Sadly he wasn't there. I also bumped into an old family friend whom I hadn't seen for about 13 years.

I have some make up from The Body Shop, but I'm not the biggest fan. One lipstick went off on me within 6 months of buying it. Yuck. I also think they might be in financial trouble as I get e-mails from them all the time with massive discounts, like 40-50%. I might check out the new make up line, but I've gone off their make up lately.

Hmm, my Mac Au Rose suntint is "processing" whereas the Dior bronzer has been dispatched. I'm guessing it's out of stock again. Oh well, maybe it wasn't meant to be.

Thanks - I also keep on getting these discount emails - I hope they keep on, as I love some of their products such as the Ice Blue shampoo.

My son loves the lemon cake from M&S - he always gets one when we have a family birthday and he can't eat the cake that we have. Personally I think his cake is better than ours in that instance. Things have improved so much since he was diagnosed twelve years ago (he's now fourteen).

Yes, definitely! I was diagnosed 7 years ago, and even I've seen a massive change. Having said that, I bought some lemon cake slices from Sainsbury's the other day and they are so dry and crumbly. I will definitely get the M&S lemon cake next time. :) I often bake cakes myself as well, we just all have the gluten free one. Do you cook gluten free for everyone in your family or do you cook separately for your son? I just do the same for everyone. They do eat normal bread and stuff, but mostly we just have the same.

The Ice Blue shampoo is one of my favourite products from Body Shop.

Eh, it's probably for the best. I've never tried them, and this year's ones didn't get good reviews, so I don't mind that much.

Just wanted to say I'm wearing Metallic Coral (407) today and it lasted for 4 hours without fading until I had my lunch, but half of it is still there actually. Such gorgeous colour too. Check it out!

Glad you like it. It's my favourite of the 3 new colours, too :)
