I can't wait to get more details of the holiday collections aswell - I need to buy less from autumn collections thats for sure!

I got my NARS goodies a few days ago and Montego Bay is not a dry matte at all, it has a lovely creamy texture :)

I have found some info on the Guerlain holiday collection! No sign of a Voyage Powder, but there is a pressed powder / blush thingy that's really pretty too. And the Meteorites look so gorgeous! http://naturalnchicmakeup.blogspot.com/2011/08/weekend-edition-shop-til-you-drop.html

Lou, you should definitely try the Meteorites, they are lovely! :)

Good Evening!!

Hope everyone has had a good weekend, considering the crazy week we've had!

You guys may know already, but just in case you dont Selfridges in London have the Chanel fall/winter collection already apparently they got it on 5th August!! I made and order and should hopefully see it sometime this week. They sold out of Perdiot Nail Vernis but I hope to get this at my local counter later on this week, I did manage to score the eyelash curlers so I'm rather happy!

Anyway hope you all have a great week xx

Thanks for letting us know! The only thing I want is Peridot, and maybe the Taupe eyeliner. I'll be going to London sometime on the 22nd or 23rd, but I guess I'd be better off ordering Peridot online as soon as it's available from Debenhams.

Good Evening!!

ooohh they do look pretty! i am looking forward to smelling them too because everybody says the smell is lovely too! :)
 



Thank you! It's annoying it isn't online anywhere just yet :( Sadly I am not near selfridges and I won't order straight from the store again because the deliverey guy was being weird about delivering it to my neighbours house - too much hastle! Plus i want to order from debenhams so i can get the all important beauty points! woo hoo! how are you finding the lash curlers?

[/quote] I think the eyelash curlers were £24 and they're apparently the same standard and quality as the shu uemura ones. I havent got my order yet as I only placed it yesterday. I called up to get the beiges highlighter and was told I couldnt be put through to the counter because there were mad queues so I took the direct numbers and waited for a bit and got through! Thats when I found out they already had the new collection from 5th August!! This will be the first time I have used the mail order service I usually do the hours drive to the store, but I couldnt be asked and as my usual parking spots are unavailable because of the construction works parking in the Selfridges carpark would cost more than the postage! Hopefully there wont be any mishaps as I dont usually have good luck with deliveries lol!! I will however be going into my local HOF to score the nail polishes and to do a live comparison with the 3 eyeshadows I didnt order to the perles s/s pallete before I consider getting them. After this splurge I'm totally done until the new year lol!! :D

@Alisha1 - that mini blush is just too cute! Do you like the colour? I wore my Orgasm blush today and just love it.

Counting down the days until I go to Paris at the moment. Mum is flying over from New Zealand and is taking me there for my 30th birthday in a few weeks. I already have plans to visit the flagship Sephora store on Champs Elysee...mwahaha :p

Also noticed yesterday that my local Debenhams in Reading is now stocking Smashbox boxed value sets! There is a cute Day to Night set on sale for about 40 quid, and last year's Eye Wish palette. Must. Resist.

I bought NARS Orgasm awhile ago even though I heard it won't work for my skin tone but it does and its very pretty! Super Orgasm is just waaay too glittery for my taste but the packaging is super cute so I don't mind!

Ooh Paris sounds like fun! Hope you have a great time there! I hate that I'm not going on holiday this year :( but we might have a family holiday next year so thats something to look forward to!

Smashbox sets seem like such great value but I've never purchased them! I literally don't own a single Smashbox product!

Oh wow! I hope you have an amazing time in Paris! That sounds fabulous and it must make it even more special that your mum will be going with you! :)

[/quote] That Sephora on the Champs Elysee...........I remember my first time in Paris and a guy from work - yes a guy recommended I go there. I walked in the doorway and it looked like the aisles were stretched out to heaven, my mouth fell open and the sales assistant at the door stepped forward with a smile and handed me a basket which I took and literally skipped into the store lol!! You will have so much fun in there, be careful though, you tend to lose time and money in there hehe!

there isn't much info on it to be honest. i think it would be best to try it in person to know which shade to get. also somebody mentioned it works best when applied with your hands rather than brush :)

I've been there a few times before, but that pretty much describes my reaction the first time I went there too!! I had so many things in my basket that I had to make myself take half of it out again before I went to the counter to pay for it! :p

Tomorrow I will be going to the Netherlands. No Sephora there unfortunately (at least not that I know of) but a good chance to check out duty free along the way. I love browsing the travel retail exclusive sets.

Oh right, it was Super Orgasm that was in mini (sorry, I forgot and thought it was Orgasm!). Yes, I've swatched it before and it seems quite glittery? The matching Super Orgasm lipgloss looks nice though.

The Smashbox sets are really great value - I have a couple and they are really good quality. QVC often have them and usually it's cheaper to buy from there than Debs. At the moment they have the Softbox eye palette on QVC for 30 quid whereas on Debenhams site it's 50. Overpriced, much?
