Tweet This is what happens when you wander round Boots during an idle lunch break – shopping! Can you imagine in Boots stocked Nars? Or Guerlain? or Bobbi Brown? I’ll have a lipstick with my Turkey Sandwich, please. I’ve realised that I have a thing for lip products; lipstick and lip gloss and lip balm. Actually I have a thing for a long of things…but there’s no better pick me up than a new lippie. I bought 3 new items, {Read More}
Tweet So I’m a bit slow, but hey, there’s still 3 weeks until Christmas! Chanel’s 2010 Holiday offering is gorgeous – I just love the strong brown eyes and hot pink lips – who knew it could work so well and not look overdone?: Of Chanel’s Holiday collection, I have the Le 4 Ombres Quad in Tentation Cuivree, Patchouli Rouge Coco and two Levres Scintillantes in Charming and Pleasing to try. (I have tried to source the hot pink lip {Read More}
Tweet I bought this beautiful Chanel lip gloss whilst in Duty Free – actually Mr C bought it. I told him it was “about £6″ and when he was charged £16 he gave me a death look from the till. Men…have no idea how expensive make up is these days. I chose 146 Coral Love – so beautiful! Coral Chanel gloss sounds amazing to me! Coral love is a light peach with micro sparkles. Chanel make my favourite micro sparkle {Read More}
Tweet When it comes to lipsticks and lipgloss I am a sucker for a luxurious lip product. And what better than a product by Chanel; their (fairly) new Rouge Allure Extrait De Gloss Pure Shine Intense Colour glosses come in a variety of shades, and looks similar to Rouge Allure Laque but in a longer tube. I have three shades here, fairly natural ones to try, Insolence, Confidence and Insouciance. They say: CHANEL reveals the next generation of lipgloss – {Read More}
Tweet I love Chanel make up in general – who doesn’t? But I had some make up done recently with a Chanel Quad, and boy did my eyes water and water. Then I remembered that I went through another phase when my eye used to just water every morning, and it was every time I used my Chanel Nymphea Quad! So I tested my theory and yeah – I look like a cry baby. Tragedy! I have about 12 palettes {Read More}
Tweet When I was on the Chanel counter last week I purchased three things, the Chanel Mat Lumiere Liquid Foundation, the Chanel Bronze Universel and this, the powder version of the Mat Lumiere base: You don’t need to buy this to go with the Mat Lumiere Liquid Foundation! You can use any powder to set it! This powder if a powder foundation, which means it has greater coverage on the skin, so used with the liquid foundation it can look {Read More}
Tweet As part of my great big fat no buy FAIL, I purchased this Chanel Mat Lumiere Luminous Long Lasting Fluid Foundation from Debenhams. I’ve wanted this for ages – its actually what I was after when I was lumbered with the Pro Lumiere instead… Here is the foundation: The counter was so so so so so busy I ended up asking my work colleague, who doesn’t wear any make up, every, which shade looked right for me. Her response: {Read More}
Tweet I purchased MAC’s To The Beach Beach Bronze Cream Bronzer (Geez – try saying that after a few drinks) first, then I purchased the Chanel Bronze Universel in a moment of weakness. I was kicking myself, thinking that I had basically bought the same thing twice. Not so, my darlings. Overall, I’ve found the To The Beach collection a disappointment, so much so that I can’t even be bothered going through my purchases. Anyway, so there I was with {Read More}
