What a beauty: YSL Yves Saint Laurent Limited Edition Palette; Peche L’Eclat

September 13, 2010 by Row

Tweet YSL have released a Limited Edition blush and highlight powder for Autumn 2010. They say: This season’s star is embellished with a detail of passementerie engraved on the emblematic YSL compact in contrasting matte and shiny gold. This powder in interlacing barely-there shades will give you sinful radiance. The slick gold case has the beautiful passementerie (elaborate trimmings and engravings) on the top: I am very very bad at using anything this pretty and limited edition – I end {Read More}

Naturally I just had to buy the Skinfood Macaroon Mini Pact – even though I don’t quite know what a Mini Pact is – just incase it smelt like a macaroon. Ok here’s what they say it does.

Tweet Ooooohhhhh. I have heard so many good things about the Dior Diamond Powder in Amber Glow so I am excited to be a proud owner of it: This isn’t really a review, more of a Ooohh post. Me and higlighters are meh. There’s too many things that can go wrong. To light, too glittery, too powdery, too shimmery. At first touch this powder feels quite hard to touch – its not overly soft (like you dip your brush in {Read More}

February 18, 2010 by Row

Tweet I’ve been sitting on the Limited Edition Spring collection from No. 7 for a while…but now its time for a review! Here is the collection – its fairly small, a highlighter, two lipsticks and an eyeshadow quad. . Oh metallic packaging. You are such a pain to photograph: Here is the shell like turquoise packaging.

Review: Benefit Miss Popularity Highlighter

December 27, 2009 by Row

Tweet I have a list of products, items that I’ve wanted to buy for a while but I am totally willing to wait for. A few weeks ago I decided to order Miss Popularity, a highlighter wand type contraption from StrawberryNet for £10 (on sale). I do love a Benefit invention: Benefit say: Turn up your “all that” appeal with miss popularity.
