Well, I have just contacted them. Free goodies would be lovely, but I'm mostly just concerned for people that are buying them thinking they're the real deal! Who knows what's in them?

No help on the photographing flakies front I'm afraid. I hadn't even heard of photographing them underwater before! Do you have Photoshop or similar? You can always colour correct your images that way

I hope MAC do something about the stall! I hate it when people sell fake stuff - I feel sorry for the people who believe its real and waste money on it especially considering if they paid £3.50 more they could get genuine MAC lipstick!

Well done for reporting that stall, kirkichi!

is cinematics the mix and match 2 palettes, not the premade ones? will it be online only here?

I believe it's the mix and match palettes we're getting, but I don't know whether it will be online only or not. Makes no odds to me - I have no choice but to order online.

I think there are some premade palettes (different to the Nordies ones) which will be available at airports, but since I don't travel abroad I won't be able to get my hands on those.

i have no money, and this month is so confusing with the collections... i did want some of the shadow refills. so i hope they are not this month, because then i cant afford all the ones i want..

i booked a holiday for my bf and i to mexico in september, and i made a mistake with the booking, and the bastards charged me even more money to switch to a different hotel

they booked me in a swingers hotel! i was horrified they had it in their catalogue, (thomson), it said couples, adults only, i thought it was going to be a sandals type couples hotel, but after i got home i realised it had a fine print bit, with all the 'entertainment'

thomson were terrible, they charged me a £70 fine to change to another (more expensive) hotel, i was spending more money anyway so i dont see why they tagged a fine on too, especially seeing as their sales agent didnt tell me when i booked it what kind of place it was, i even asked her if it was nice, and she said yes..

i would like to ask that none of you EVER book your holidays with thomson ever, they are AWFUL, and so unhelpful

^Oh no, that's awful! I will definitely not book with Thomson, we normally use Thomas Cook and they've been great every time.

this is my first time booking with thomson, usually i do thomas cook, or kuoni, this is the one and only time i have and will ever book with them, their customer service is awful, and they booked a 24 year old, who does not look remotely like a swinger, into some seedy swingers hotel in cancun. eugh!

my bf made me laugh, he said we should just go anyway, we dont have to participate, i was like HELL NO!

i'm just glad my friend who is a travel agent called me when she found out where i was staying and told me not to stay there or i'd have arrived and been shocked!

Wow I can't believe Thomsons CS is like that! There supposed to be a reputable travel agent! I'm glad everything got sorted for you - can't believe they made you pay a fine when clearly they should have said what type of hotel it was! Atleast now you won't get any 'surprises' when you arrive at your hotel though ;)

I LOVE my brother.

So today I got my CP package from the US. My Jealousy Wakes e/s, and a couple other things. Super excited.

Then.. I find out that the entire Bloggers collection is back in stock. I regretted not getting Hocus Pocus e/s and Parisian Skies e/s... so I got my brother in Canada to let me use his credit card to pay for them, send to him and have him send it to me and then have me paypal him the money. I can't even believe he said yes.

He is usually not this way at ALL.

I'm so glad I managed to get free shipping though with a code. I nearly died when I saw the price. $7.50 for shipping! To think, he lives in the same city the make-up is probably going to be sent from anyway! I also forgot that Canada/US add tax AFTER the price of the item, so that bumped it up a bit more than I thought. In total though it's going to cost me about $40 or so to have them. I don't care though. I'm super excited. Thank god for having family living back home! To think that each e/s is $17.50, too. The prices horrified me, but I suppose really it works out to be about the same price/slightly cheaper than here. I think the added tax and what not made me think "omg it's so much more expensive", but with the conversion rate it'd be roughly the same, maybe only a few pounds more anyway. Happy happy!

Sigh, and now I can go to sleep! It may be 5am... but staying up this late is totally worth it for MAC, haha. Frick, I have issues.

Got my NARS order yesteray.. Am currently planning today's outfit so that I can wear my Delphes eyeshadow trio, haha... (It's such a cloudy day toay, feels like autumn already!). Really liking the Oasis lipgloss, I think I like NARS glosses better than MAC lipglass - they're not as sticky.

Just came across this blog post - apparently Garnier are launching a BB cream here:

http://www.musingsofamuse.com/2011/07/garnier-bb-cream-miracle-skin-perfector.html

I have to say if I actually liked Garnier then I'd probably try it out. (I'm not a massive fan of anything made by L'oreal other than the occasional Body Shop product). But if anyone tries it I'd be interested to hear your thoughts!

Edit: Just read it's available online in Superdrug, you can find it here in Light or Medium shades: http://www.superdrug.com/day-cream/garnier-bb-cream-miracle-skin-perfector-medium/invt/282268/&bklist=

That's exciting news. I'm sure, other brands will catch up too.

I just saw that post too! I'm tempted to check it out, but I feel the same way as you regarding l'oreal. Might see if there are testers on the shelf so I can at least have a little look!

All packed ready to go. Off to Great Yarmouth (not Skegness as I thought) in the morning. I'll try to pop in some time during the week using my mobile broadband dongle. Bath and bed now, though

Have a good holiday!

I've been busy with the children, but will be going to London (on my onw!) on Sunday, so really looking forward to that. :)
