Just had to phone Debenhams. Instead of sending me the MAC In Extra Dimensions brush kit that I ordered, they sent me a different kind of MAC bag, one that doesn't contain brushes. They're sending out a replacement, and I have to send this one back. The product codes aren't even similar.

This is what I received instead http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_123443216499_-1


I'm loving the pressed pigments, the brown eye bag, Salon Rouge and No Faux Pas, though.

Has anyone tried the Givenchy Prisme eyeshadow quads or their lipsticks? Thoughts?

Debenhams have the Rose Attraction quad for £18 and the Mini Prismes set (eyeshadow, face and blush) for £24.50 at the moment, and 1500 bonus points if you spend £50.

Some of the Guerlain bronzers have big discounts, too.
I haven't tried their eyeshadows but I LOVE the Le Rouges. The Interdit ones are okay but the Le rouges are <3<3 If you like the Urban Decay formula, I find it to be similar but a little more long wearing on me.

I believe the new Givenchy quads in January are reformulations so I'm waiting for those. The blushes are nice though.

There seem to be new casual colours up on the John Lewis site:

I'm not sure what's going on because I can't find them on MAC's website and they don't have the correct names, but the colour descriptions match those of the CCs released in September in the US.

Hey ladies, thought I'd share my unexpected makeup storage! I got a writing set from paperchase for £12 and it came in this lovely box with a drawer, turns out I can actually fit my lipsticks in it!

My Chanel highlighter and Illusion d'Ombre arrived today. The highlighter is so pretty I'm scared to swatch it in case I ruin the pattern. Envol is a very pretty colour that could be used every day.

My MAC brush bag arrived, too - the correct one this time, so I now just have to send the other bag back.

I bet the highlighter is even more beautiful in person. I am going to use my Boots points to buy it - is it in stores yet? I am going to Oxford St next Fri & am hoping they have it!

Our Boots doesn't have a Chanel counter, unfortunately. The web site still says "stock coming soon".

Ps how do we know our points have gone on for a purchase It takes days for them to put it on doesn't it ? More than a week ?

Not sure how long it is for as I haven't looked yet.

As for your points, they can take a couple of days, or a week or so. It says bonus points can take up to 6 weeks, but it's usually sooner. If you go to the beautycard page (there's a link 'Beauty Club' at the bottom of Debenhams' pages, under "Shopping with us") and log into your beautycard account, you can see how many points have been added and when. There are two tabs - one shows points turned into money off (only a maximum of £15 per month is changed) and those spent, and the second, I think it is labelled 'points' will show you the history of points added. Bonus points aren't always added at the same time as the base points.
