Last week one of my favourite high end cosmetics shops had a 20% sale on makeup. I was really hoping to pick up the new dior palettes in Idirescent Leather or Earth Tones, or both.

Unfortunately, after seeing these palettes online, swatched and all, for almost a full month...our tiny country does not seem to have lauched the Dior fall collection yet..not even last week on saturday. I find this to be quite strange, as the manufacturers of Dior are based in France, which is really close to the Netherlands...However, countries further away such as the US, Hongkong (China) and Japan had earlier releases than we had.

Oh lordy, so I bought a YSL palette to fill up the gap. It is a really beautiful palette, the no 2...such beautiful colours and exquised texture. And the price, exquised as well...even with the 20% discount --> 40 euros.

I found a lovely blogger with incredible pictures of beautiful cosmetics. It is in Chinese, but we all speak pictures, LOL

I love her pictures of the Jill Stuart blushers

I am very lemming these Jill Stuart blushes. Unfortunately, they are a whopping $57 online (and even more expensive...eeeeek).
Still, I might cave in because of 'research' (blush research, that is).

These palettes are suitable for pressing your own loose pigments into solid eyeshadows....And....yes!!! You can put your mac eyeshadows in these...





Amazing!!!

I am really looking forward to this collection. Some lucky girls from our Dutch forum were able to get the quads from these collections, and they are absolutely lemming-worthy! I truely want the Spiced Chocolate Quad and the Shadowy Lady Quad.

I need to buy these as soon as I can!!!!

I really want to buy some more products online, but bad me...I am waiting for 12 packages (small and not so small), so I will be on a low-buy for now.

Ok, I would love to buy some more Bourjois Hi-tech rouge. I already have the Pixel pink one, but I saw swatches on coinside's blog, and now I want the 84 Crushed Raspberry and the 88 Golden Chocolate. Check out the swatches yourself on http://blog.cosinside.com/164 . (click on more)

Secondly, I saw some Mario De Luigi items on qvcuk.com. This 5-piece sun-up collection looks lushious

And what about these polishes from Nail Inc....the summer collection...yum



Those kind of colours would be the kind that Rihanna loves to wear

Finally they ship to Europe. When I lived in Liverpool, they were my first online order, so I have a special place for them.
