I haven't been to a Chanel counter in a while to ask for a specific date :/ But it is definitely out in August. Speaking of Chanel - has anyone been to the new pop up store in Covent Garden? I'm thinking of going London next month for the sole purpose of going to the counter

I vaguely recall someone said next week (or maybe this week seeing it's almost August). I really want the highlighter powder (surprisingly), but no sure if I'll get anything else. Justine has bought me the two blue Illusion d'Ombres and I also bought the other two and the gold highlighter and nail polish, so I'm a bit Chanel-led out.
I'm planning on going to London at the end of August myself, I'll have £60 worth of beauty points on my Debenhams card, so will want to spend it on Guerlain.

oh no! sorry that you got an ear infection tooHappy belated birthday from me as well, Dawn!
I've been staying away from Specktra, as I'm trying to save up for driving lessons I'm hoping to take in the autumn.
I hope your son will get better very soon, Viv!
I got a nasty ear infection around the same time you did, Lou. I gave my earphones to a colleague, so he could watch a youtube video on my phone, and the next morning I woke up with pain in my ear. I was so angry that he didn't warn me about itand freaked out, as I've never had any problems with my ears, and out of a sudden I couldn't even hear well. Lesson learnt though...
I've been wanting to get me some holo nailpolish for ever, after finding pictures of China Glaze OMG polishes, and didn't realize that there are quite a few that have been released by other brands, which are not as crazy pricey. I need to do some more research, but never seem to find time for it, being not a nail polish person. Which ones are your favourites? I think I will also be trying the Gosh one, since it's easy to just pick it up from a drugstore. There is hoping that they've reformulated it to make it a bit more long-lasting.
i never ever share my headphones with anybody! at work people always want to test out in ear headphones and get funny when i say no due to hygine reasons - people can be so gross!Dawn I am so sorry that i missed your birthday. I hope you had a lovely day. i feel bad because i've been so absent again (dealing with more at home issues)
to perk myself up i bought the pink and gold illusion d'ombre's yeserday - so pretty!

Hope things are okay with you, Lou. PM me if you want to talk. x
I ended up ordering 6 of the new Estee Lauder eyeshadows last night. There's 3 more I want to check out in person, maybe on Sunday (hopefully).
PS. Debenhams have the EL eyeshadows up too and true to form they have the names and colours mixed up. I wonder if the person putting up the new collections is blind or something. *rolls eyes*

mac's new stuff is online and i can't believe how much the electric cool shadows are! £19 each?! not being funny but my chanel ones were £23 and that is more of a 'high end' brand if you know what i mean. i was going to buy two but may just get the one now. i shall wait until the hit debenhams too because i want beauty points. i'm trying to get to £15 on my card to use towards a chanel foundation because that will make it about half price

£19!!! MAC are having a laugh. I don't know about others but lately with the price increases and now this I feel a little alienated by MAC, I haven't bought in months. I mean its now £35 for a quad, thats the same price as an estee lauder quint and I know which one i'd rather get (don't start me on the £5 increase in the new velvet underground quint though).
If MAC are not careful there going to start out pricing there targert audience, if they haven't already started to already.

£19? Hmm, I'm not sure if I will pick up any at this rate. I was actually hoping they would do a nice green one, but there isn't even one. I will look at them in person hopefully on Sunday, and see if I want any of them. I have also just ordered six of the new Estee Lauder eyeshadows.
I was also sort of interested in the red lip bag, but at £31 it's not really a good value. Also the make up bags look god awful imo.

They seem to be on the Harrods website at the moment anyway. I'm not going for them, I thought I would, but got a (possible) holiday to think of, and they're not REALLY a necessary, are they???Also just noticed that the Estee Lauder sequin finish lipglosses are up on the EL website and Violet Rain is already sold out.

Thank you! I might order Violet Rain. It's so pretty!
By the way, are any of the new Mac collections Mac (online) exclusives? None of them are up on Debenhams despit it being Wednesday already.

I managed to swatch most of the new Estee Lauder eyeshadows (singles) today in Boots. There are some beautiful colours. Magenta does look rather like the swatches of MAC's Infra-Violet, although how close it is I don't know. Marine (can't remember the full name) is beautiful, as is Cyber Pink and Pistachio and the purple one. The one that surprised me was Arctic Sky, which looked rather grey in the pot, but when swatched is a kind of lilac/pink duochrome - I'm very tempted by that one in particular. The drawback with these, compared to the Electric Cool eyeshadows, is of course that the EL ones are £19 and you get less in them than in the £14.50 MAC ones.
