Finally got my hands on some goodies from the Venomous Villains collection at lunchtime. I ran down to the Carnaby Street store and looked like a total weirdo pouring over the display! My hands were shaking as I was out of breath from the run (okay, well, fast walk) and excitement. I think I had the security guard quite worried :(
I 'only' intended to pick up Bad Fairy nail lacquer and possible Oh So Fair 'beauty powder' if I could swallow the £20+ price tag for what is essentially a blusher. But then I saw Strange Potion lipgloss, Dark Magic eyeshadow and Mean and Green nail lacquer (which isn't really that green!). I also spotted the Viva Glam Cyndi and Gaga lipglosses which I hadn't noticed before. I adore the lipsticks and the Cyndi gloss is very pretty, I probably could have done without it, but I was swayed by the sales assistant. I am weak.
Right, so no more make-up buying until Christmas. Except of course for the Sleek 'Rose Gold' blusher :)
I'll try and get some swatches up soon, but you've probably seen them all already elsewhere!
It's too hard to say no when you are faced with a new collection in the flesh lol. Oh well at least you will be looking gorgeous even if it makes you skint xx
ReplyDeleteI know! I've been waiting for this for months and I haven't been this excited about a collection in a long time, however I'm very disappointed that Ursuala (from The Little Mermaid) didn't feature. Some people may think the packaging is tacky but I say bring it on! I want to see a Disney Princess collection next! Haha!
ReplyDeleteI can't afford to get any :( Oh well, drinking my sorrows away in a couple of hours! Are we still meeting outside MAC?
ReplyDeleteYay, you got a bag full! I still really want the polish but have not made it to the mall. I just got an email saying the Bite of Apple blush that I ordered is completely sold out! Girls are crazy for this collection :)
ReplyDeleteYou would just have been denying yourself if you didn't bag all these goodies and that would have been a travesty to the world of beauty bloggging and we can't have that!! lol Looking forward to seeing some swatches.

I'm on a 'no MAC until Christmas' rule too! This collection has robbed my wallet like crazy - why do they make it all so pretty!?
ReplyDeleteAlso, completely agree 100% with the Ursula comment!

Great haul and yes I have told myself the same thing, but I probably will be tempted before long.
