My package from Selfridge's arrived!! The bottle is really cute, but small. And, it really does smell like the perfume. I can't stop sniffing my nails. I have to be careful who sees me or they will think I'm nuts.

Sorry, I don't know why the picture is side ways. As far as the lipstick I ordered, it is very heavily fragranced. I have no idea why I didn't realize the lipstick smells like petite robe noir. I really don't care for strong scents in my lipsticks so if anyone else feels this way I suggest you check them out in person before buying. The color is very nice, the texture is great and I like the way it feels on. If I can get over the scent it would be a winner.

For Halloween, I was the Tardis to my hubby's 10th Doctor. It was awesome. I even had a police box light headband that lit up.

So... I went to check out this mini collection in stores a few days ago. Unfortunately the nail polishes won't be coming to Puerto Rico unless Saks gets them but it might take a while. They didn't get 068 Mauve Gloves, 011 Beige Lingerie, 013 Leather Blazer, 069 Lilac Belt, and the obvious Asia exclusive shades. Everything is permanent and the lipsticks are priced at $32.
I swatched a few of the lipsticks but I couldn't take a picture because they're still not available in all of America (aka the US will be the last place to get them in June). The packaging looks a bit cheap yet oddly sophisticated due to the heart stopper, and surprisingly sturdy but still nothing special if I compare them to the Rouge/Shine Automatiques. The packaging reminded me of the old UD lipsticks that had a sword, the Dior Addict lipsticks, and the Wet n Wild matte lipsticks. The formula does live up to its claim as being hydrating and have a lovely shine. Some shades are more opaque than others but the sheerer shades are buildable. The shimmer shades aren't gritty like most of their predecessors. Imo, the formula is a lot better than the Rouge/Shine Automatiques, but I guess that these compete directly with the Dior Addict lipsticks and the MAC Huggables. The scent is like it's namesake perfume but a lot less intense compare to the discontinued Rouge Automatiques, Kiss Kiss, and Rouge G's which is good news for those who are sensitive to overbearing scents in lipsticks.
I bought 041 Sun-Twin-Set (coral pink without shimmer and possible substitute for Pamplelune Shine Automatique) and 007 Black Perfecto (sheer shimmer plum). I'll go back for 061 Pink Ballerinas (it's a my lips but better pink that's great for everyone) and 002 Pink Tie (cool blue toned pink without shimmer). I like that they don't dry out your lips, the formula is comfortable, the color selection is good but they should cool it with the reds.
