CCOs in the UK

[browneyedbaby]

Gunwharf Quays had some Xmas 2007 stuff today again (inc. brush set, smokey eyes pallette, warm eyes pallette, pink lips set, peach lips set), Whistle e/s (Barbie), ermmmm, chrome yellow e/s, a couple of diff' try on packs, brush rolls, and various other bits and pieces. I only got a blush (Trace Gold).

You are an absoloute star honey!

How recent was it they had the smoke signals stuff?

I know you cant guarentee it but even volunteering is amazingly nice of you..!

The moisturiser comes in both a creame (pot) and a gel (pump like container). Either would be fine!

Do you have msn? It might be easier to discuss it on there..

xx

They had the Smoke Signals stuff the last time I went, which was a few weeks ago. Some of it might still be there, it's a bit hit or miss sometimes.

I do have msn yes, have PM'd you my address now. X

I've never been so not sure how good it is...

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

Anyone ever seen any McQueen stuff at any?

 

[mimanchi]

I was surprised that noone talked about the brushes that they have. I went in Feb and they had quite a number of MAC brushes. I bought the 187 there for £19 which I was so psyched about. Apart from the brush sets, I saw they had the 223, 169, 188 full size, 224SE and a couples of others which I was not very interested. I was a bit disappointed that they didnt have the 180 Kabuki, 224, 242 or 219. But so glad that I scored the 187.
They have a great range of products, some were mentioned above. Just want to add they had the collection of 3 full size Liquidlast Liners which I absolutely lurveeeeeee lol I believe they were £18 per box of 3.

Apart from Mac, they have many other brands with some great products too i.e. Stila, Clinique, Bobbie Brown. I didn't dare to look because I was so broke (Im still now since Im still MACaholic) Maybe next time I go down I will check them out. Really like Stila eyeshadows especially.

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

What shades of liquidlasts were in the set?

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

Is Jardin Aires or Pink Opal ever found at cco?

 

[NatalieMT]

Sorry never seen McQueen, Jardin Aires or Pink Opal. The last pigments I saw at my local CCO were Violet, Kitschmas and I think Golden Olive. Although I can't be sure.

I've seen the sets of liquidlasts though and they do have some individual liquidlasts - last time I was there saw Aqualine, Visionaire, Auto-Orange and I think it must have been Greenplay.

Is your local CCO the Ellesmere Port? I really want a Violet pigment, didn't see it in my last visit.

I also bought the Cocobar liquidlast liner which I abolutely love

 

[NatalieMT]

Yeah Ellesmere Port, I'm only about 20 minutes away, so it's great.

I always feel like going!

Violet pigment was there a couple of weeks ago (but I think they only had like 3 left), I really wanted to get it but at the time I was trying not to go overboard with buying.

Coco Bar does look so pretty, good buy, deep chocolate brown. Yum yum!

 

[seabird]

i'm visiting the one at portsmouth soon so i shall post a list of things i see!

 

[NatalieMT]

^^^ Yeah, that'd be great! I'd like to know what the other stores have!

I went to the Ellesmere Port one again today. Pigments - Violet, Viz-A-Violet, Frost, Naked, Provence, Old Gold, Melon. Had e/s Embark, Trax, Juxt, Seedling, Nocturnelle, Da Bling, Whistle, Zeal, Moonflower and quite a few more which I don't remember. Loads of the Trip sets and Novel Twist palette, also had loads of the Holiday sets - warm eyes, both the lips ones, Finery set etc etc. Umm all the liquidliners already listed aswell as Point Black, Classic Cream, Blue Herizon, Fushia-ism and Molten Soil. Blushes in Ablaze, Emote, Fab and a couple more. Every l/g under the sun pretty much, some foundations nothing less than NW or NC 30 though, umm cleansers - I noticed the Lightful one. Some fluidlines - Sweet Sage, Blue Peep, Non Conformist, Silverstroke, Ostentatious.

Err I just can't think anymore but they had so much more than usual today!

 

[mimanchi]

OMG I really want Violet and Naked pigment and Non-conformist fluidline. I want to go now

Just that i've got only 30quids in my bank account and I live all the way in Manchester

Thanks for the list though, totally ruin my day but make me look forward to my next trip to Ellesmere Port
