^C'mon girls lets band together and petition them! I don't see why they dont stock Zoya, maybe its just too expensive for them to get even at a wholesale cost. But stocking it means more money, more business and more happy customers!

Everyone chant now, Zoya! Zoya! Zoya!

My favorite products are Dior's Crème Abricot, Burts Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme and Lush's Lemony Flutter.
I am using both the Crème Abricot and the Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme for a while now and I love both. Crème Abricot moisturizes better though.
A few days ago I tried Lush's Lemony Flutter in the store and I can't wait to get my hands on it. My cuticles love it too.

Lush haul for me yesterday!

I happened to run out of my studio moisture fix, and dermalogica's special cleansing gel on the same day so was off to find something different. I'm not too sure about Lush really, I don't like fragranced products on my face.

I have combination skin so the SA recommended-

ultra bland cleanser- this is fantastic! gets every speck of makeup off even mascara

coalface soap- not sure about this, seemed rather drying.

imperialis moisturiser- tis ok.

breath of fresh air toner- nothing spesh.

Oh and stopped by Priceline and for some reason checked out the Max Factor stand. They had a gorgeous e/s 'burnt bark' almost an exact dupe of satin taupe but not as shimmery. Super pretty!

^I had a mini Lush haul yesterday >_< I got another Jasmine and Henna Fluff Ease and American Cream conditioner. Love their hair stuff!

 

[xLongLashesx]

ooh i've heard good things about american cream! smells divine

 

[capmorlovesmac]

Since a week+ I am loving Lush as well. I am in love with BIG shampoo plus the Jungle conditioner. They both together smell so good!

I got a larger piece of Jungle after I liked the sample I got. The only thing I don't like is the (luckily) tiny soft part which they have put in the outer part of Jungle. When I use this on my hair it feels too heavy. The solid part of Jungle is pure love though.

What I don't like are their shower jellies, though. Who invents such things? They are unusable with their slipperiness. I got one from their holiday collection in a Twitter raffle and it smells divine but I can't use it without half of it landing on the floor of my shower.

^I love the shower jellies >_<! My favorite one is the purple one that smells like violets. I think it's meant to smell like Jasmine but its violets to me... Anyways I understand what you mean by the slipperiness. I used to have issues with mine landing on the floor of my shower and struggling to catch it before it got swept away hahahha, good times

My solution is to grab a blob of it, then smush it real good into the middle of my shower loofah. I use one of those puffy acrylic thingies. Once its smushed in it does not slide back out and you are free to wash without worrying about it sliding away.

^Me too Nat! I need to go on a big spending spree. It's been a while. I don't think Art Supplies counts because it's still coming from overseas and I need instant gratification

lol. Nat, you needed a shu artist to sharpen your eyebrow pencil??
Have you got a pencil munching sharpener at home or something?

Not much haulage of late makeup wise... picked up some bargains at target the other day - $17 cardis, $11 pj pant, $10 black sequiny tops for work! etc. woot! I think it seriously ended up being $150 bucks worth of gear (RRP) for $65.

Oh and bought a Berlin city guide book too for $12.

Setup the liberty collection stand yesterday arvo (for today); the packaging and patterns are so awesome! The bags are very cute.

 

[simplyenchantin]

Ohh is that coming out today? I better stay away from Myer then, LOL.

 

[CatsMeow]

Yep, the packaging alone will lure even the most self-controlled shoppers! lol
It's so pretty!

That's right!! That is what I need right now too!! Even though I paid for them, all my CP stuff don't feel like haulage to me. Not yet anyway

Yup, it is in a special shape, so you need to take it to the artist and they sharpen it for you. The best pencil ever and it gets the special treatment.

I am over Give me Liberty.

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ Haha you grouch Nat!

I'm kinda over it too though... I'm really looking forward to the summer collections now

In particular, Alice & Olivia! I'm dying to see those new pigments

Hehe.. Yes Carina, grouch Nat is back! You should be used to grouch me by now

I don't know.. All the things I got from the recent collections have been bleh. I am going to stick with the perm stuff for awhile, but then I pretty much have everything from the perm stuff, so please excuse me, I am going to have an affair with other brands for awhile. How is Lancome treating you Carina?

Their melony, orange lippies look pretty.

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ Haha you arent even a grouch I was just playin...

I am totally going to have an affair with MUFE soon I think I want sooo many of their eyeshadows...

hahaha I have been avoiding all counters for the past couple of weeks Nat so neither Lancome, Estee Lauder, Shu, Chanel or Dior can tempt me with their evilness!

Im totally loving my PopnCheeks blush though.. its makes me glow! Pity my skin is so crap at the moment.. friggen hormones :S

I'm still losing sleep over those Dior lipglosses you showed us in the other thread Nat...

 

[sambibabe]

Oh yeah.. Talking about MUFE.. If I get to visit Vancouver this year, I am so visiting their Boutique store!!

Carina, I know you have been raving about the Lancome blush.. I don't believe how good it is, until I need to see your FOTD with it! Pretty please

Oh yeah.. Those Dior glosses.. I went and tried 6 of them and they didn't show on me, thanks to my pigmented lips. Grrr.. I hate my pigmented lips! So I only bought 1. Could have bought more
