Just watched the video from Trish's website, the page is also magnetic.

ohh I like the idea of the doble decker compact.

Going to look at metal tins too, as that might be the most pretty and cost effective option!

How cool! Good for you, if people are prepared to pay that much. But isn't CYY permanent already, or is it just the US?

I know it's permanent in the US, and I think it's next month or March for us? I was so surprised when I opened the eBay app on my phone, I almost dropped it when I saw the price! I'm just glad that I'll get rid of it - that one CP was for 2 l/s and I managed to sell the other one (Moxie) on here. It just meant I was out of pocket, which was very annoying!

Hi Toobusytostich,

Boots has the Dior Eyeshadow Palette - Fairy Golds in stock now

. I just ordered one

.

Yay!! I got one too - on my points, so it feels like for free Thank you!

 

[toobusytostitch]

Hi ladies, I'm lucky enough to have £25 in Boots points and a £20 Boots voucher. Quite fancy trying out some high end lipsticks, so I'd love to know which formulas you recommend?

I've just got a Chanel Rouge Coco Shine (in 55 Romance) and a YSL Glossy Stain (in 5 Rouge Vintage) - I think I've got the high-end lippy bug! I was looking at the Dior Diorifics and Chanel Rouge Allure (Matte, Satin or Laque?).

Any tips would be great! Looking at your blog now too Anita as I know you have some lovely high end pieces!

Guerlain are my current favourite, but can't get them from Boots
My current 'work' lipstick is an Estee Lauder Pure Color Sensuous Rouge Lipstick in Sublime Nectar. As noted in one of the reviews, the colour on the website is totally 'wrong', it's a nice, subdued peach. I wouldn't say the colour is 'wow' (hence it's my work lipstick), but the formula is nicely moisturising, and it lasts quite well - I'm certainly tempted to try other colours if/when I ever need to get another lipstick!

 

[toobusytostitch]

You can turn any box or tin into a palette, if you put a sheet of metal or magnetic sheet (you can get it from craft shops) in the bottom, depending on whether your pans are magnetic or not. I've seen people use pencil tins before, like you get sets of coloured pencils in.

Hmmm, makes me think of the pencil tin type tins that I've got left over from a MAC release a couple of Christmases ago - I've kept them because I hoped they'd come in useful one day!

My Debenhams order arrived today - really quick for Debenhams!! I used the Pink Zinc this evening over Too Faced Candlelight primer, with mascara and my Elizabeth Arden Black Violet liner. It has a really creamy consistency - very much like a creamy MAC Paint Pot. I was surprised that when it had dried, it really didn't budge at all (over three hours - good for me, it would probably last a lot longer, will test it out tomorrow). Quite pigmented, but it didn't really show up on me so much because of the actual shade - one of the others will certainly show up more. Would make a fantastic base I think. Nice light shimmer - not too sparkly for kids' chess club (actually they wouldn't notice if you turned up with clown's make-up on, lol! Probably a 'work eyeshadow' to go with my 'work lipstick' lol.

I'm still waiting for mine, hopefully it'll be here tomorrow. I'm stuck at home with a sick daughter, so will probably order the purple Guerlain quad as well (ordered the green one today) seeing that I may not be able to check the collection out in person this week. I don't really need any more cream eyeshadows, I'm trying to be a bit more sensible about what I buy this year - we'll see how that goes, lol.

Does anyone know how long House of Fraser hold a paid for package? I ordered a Stereo Rose last Thursday and it was ready to be picked up on Friday, but I couldn't go then and I've been either not well (yesterday) or at home with sick daughter (today and most likely tomorrow). I don't even know if I will make it this week at all.

I think they usually say a week, but if you phone the branch to say you can't get in they will hold it for you

I think it's a week. But I know that our HoF holds things longer than that, ten days in fact in one case when I couldn't get there.

I don't actually NEED any makeup for possibly years

 

[Anitacska]

Thanks. I'll give them a call.

Hmmmm, I just decided to order the two KissKiss glosses from the Guerlain release, after debating some time about it. I've had a Guerlain mascara added to my basket as a free gift, can't see it actually promoted anywhere, but I'm not complaining - I really like the one Guerlain mascara that I have

 

[Anitacska]

Yeah, I had that added too. I'm guessing it's just a sample though.

 

[gracie90]

My CYY is now at £37 and I do not understand - 2 people keep on outbidding eachother, but there are half a dozen cheaper buy it now ones available?? Well, I'm not complaining

A small collection, with duochromes

 

[charlotte366]

I got this sample last week from my counter, its just a mini crimp ended tube like the chanel ones now are rather than a cylinder tube, haven't tried mine yet, need to finish one of the 2 that are currently on rotation.

Nice! I think Spring collections are always really tempting when it's cold and grey outside.

OK - thanks, I won't get too excited then! I guess if it was something really good there would have been more of a fuss made about it on the website.

I shouldn't think they'd be giving a £22 product away for free, sadly. Did you order the new Meteorites? I just got mine and was shocked to see how empty the container is. I now know it's meant to be like that because of the puff taking up half of the container, but still. Hard to see how it comes to 53 g, it seems less than the regular ones, although that might be due to the size of the container.
