Hope you're having a lovely weekend. I thought I'd take the opportunity to show you a few bits I bought lately from the January Mac Collections, Stylishly Yours, Mickey Contractor and Cham Pale.
I was really looking forward to Cham Pale but it was Mickey Contractor that really took me by surprise, I personally think it's a really under rated collection of beautiful sophisticated colours. Anyway, lack of funds meant I had to be very selective and I wanted more things that have sadly now sold out so I won't ever get them. Boooo.
But onto the things I did get!
I got Bubble Lounge Lip Gelee and Chilled on Ice & Dangerous Cuvee Paint Pots from Cham Pale, Too Chic Beauty Powder from Stylishly Yours and Gulabi and Mehr Lipsticks from Mickey Conractor.
Want swatches?
L-R Chiled on Ice Paint Pot, Dangerous Cuvee Paint Pot, Too Chic Beauty Powder, Gulabi Lipstick and Mehr Lipstick
And products in action? Well here are the paint pots VERY sheerly applied:
These are super glittery and I experienced a tiny bit of fall out of the course of the day but it was a tiny bit and may not have been fall out at all, it may have been from rubbing my eyes,
And here's Too Chic Beauty Powder along the top of my cheekbone:
My first beauty powder and just was I was after. Not too sparkly. I don't have a nice highlight powder, I have a couple of lovely MSF's but they are more coloured than this and I wanted something that wasn't especially coloured to highlight, This will do nicely.
Then we have the stunning Gulabi lipstick:
Wowee. The picture doesnt really do it justice, it's brighter than this, yes brighter! It's virtually neon. It's an amplified finish and gorgeous. I have no idea wherre I'll wear such a colour but I'm sure I'll find somewhere. It's stunning!
And lastly, Mehr lipstick:
This so beautiful as soon as I saw swatches I knew I had to have it. Not only is it a beautiul colour, it's matte which is my favourite finish. Swatches darker than it appears on the lips, it's really gorgeous.
And here's my Fotd with Mehr lips:
I was hoping to go back for a few more things such as I get no Kick pencil and Siahi and Ivy fluidlines but everything bar the Ivy fluidline has aold out sadly. Oh well, call it fate.
You may notice I've not shown how the Bubble Lounge lip gelee looks on, that's because I'm giving it away, so if you haven't already please go and check out my giveaway!

i got mehr too, it's lovely and it looks fab on you
ReplyDeleteGahh. I already really wanted Gulabi and Mehr lipsticks but I just can't afford to order from MAC right now as I'm desperately saving my pennies for IMATS.
ReplyDeleteYou are not helping :( haha
I seriously NEED Gulabi *sigh*
You look lovely x
Love your haul. That beauty powder is surprisingly gorgeous!! I love the subtle sheen!
ReplyDeleteI love the lipsticks, I didn't really look at the Mickey Contractor range, I wish I had!
ReplyDeleteHi new to your blog (what took me so long?) and have been browsing - we have similar issues re brows and nails so have been reading avidly. Hope you don't mind a completely unrelated question to todays post!! Are you still using the Mavala products and are your nails still as fab as they were in November? Am having huge peeling issues and inspite of using Nail Envy not seeing any improvement so thinking of stepping things up. Thanks d
ReplyDeleteLike the Chilled on Ice very much - a sort of grownup glitter look. And the Gulabi well what can I say, you have the lips to carry it off. Very nice. Jan x
ReplyDeleteThanks all I'm really delighted with this little spree.
ReplyDeleteLeanne, I must say that Gulabi would look beautiful on you ;)
Hi Debbie and welcome! I am still using the Mavala and I can't recommend highly enough, my nails are longer and stronger than they've ever been. Got a few nail posts coming in the next few days so you can see for yourself - definitely recommend!

Oh Charlie you put me to shame posting about these so quickly, some of mine still aren't out of the box yet! Gulabi looks fabulous on you, I really love both lipsticks, so glad they still had Mehr in stock at my local counter on Wednesday. I am going to try and stop being such a lazy beauty blogger and get my camera out this evening! X
ReplyDeleteThanks Charlie, will keep an eye out for those nail posts!
ReplyDeleteOoh the Gulabi lipstick looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteoh my! Mehr looks terrific on you :) You make me want to get this one now. Such a stunner. I am so impressed with the MC collection too.
ReplyDeleteI love Mehr on you, you look amazing in it and am now desperately lusting after Gulabi.
ReplyDeleteA very pretty look!
ReplyDeleteagree with you about the paint pots, just picked up two today and experienced much of the same, not as opaque as I hoped. :(
ReplyDeleteGona purchase Mehr asap!
ReplyDeleteI want Mehr now. It looks blimmin gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteOoh love those lipsticks, especially that gorgeous bright pink. Fab! x
ReplyDeleteLove your FOTD! You look beautiful! Both lip colors look very, very nice on you!
ReplyDeleteWowser, those lipsticks are divine! I think both look great and I bet you'll wear Mehr a lot. I really wanted to get one of these paintpots but then I heard about the RBR creams so I'm saving myself. I'll just have to safe my MAC attack for Peacocky!
