NOOOOO!!!!!!

I got home today to an email from MAC! The two lipsticks from the Manish Arora collection order where refunded back to my card as they have sold out! SOOOOO NOT FAIR!!!! I should have acted sooner!

I'm going to pop down to Harrods tomorrow and see if they have any in stock, although I'm not holding my breath!

Girl About Town is apart of the MAC permanent line, but it just would have been nice to have had the colourfull packaging!! Ah well!!! I had a week and I didn't act soon enough, it's my own fault I guess!!

...I'll be back after this sgort intermission!! (",)

I just couldn't sleep...

...until I had placed my order! LOL!! I know right!? I need help!! The only thing is I don't want help! LOL

So I tried to pay for my order again and it went through *yippee!!! Jumps around room, doing the new makeup dance! LMAO* I'm SO excited to get everything now, it's gonna be a HUGE haul that's for sure

...Anyway I'm off to bed now, it's almost 2AM in the morning and I'm tired and have an early start in the morning!

...I'll be back after this short intermission with news on my addiction! (",)

AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

IT'S NOT WORKING!!!!

.....My debit card that is!!! (and yes there is enough money on it! I don't live outside my means!) I just tried to pay for an order online (no prizes for guessng what site. It's quite obvious where tho! - but for those who don't know, the answer is MAC!! But it's not my fault, I'm addicted! *eeekk!!*) - It's almost as if my cosmetics addiction chooses to ignore the fact that we are going through a credit crunch! LOL!!

I shall try again tomorrow morning as I want the new Manish Arora collection; I was going to only get a few things after going to see them, but it's only at Harrods and I won't have time to go up there to see them in person, therefore I figure rather than troll through eBay later and pay more, I might as well get everything, and what I don't like, either sell it or keep it for a swap! - What do you think? If you have anything from the collection or have seen it, what do think of it?

My new obsession is.....

....MAKEUP!!!! *enter shocked expression* LOL

I've always been fascinated with makeup and bought bits here and there (from Boots and Superdrugs mainly), but recently Youtube has gotten me hooked, right, left and centre!! I've spent a great deal of money in the last couple of months on makeup and can't see it ending anytime soon!

I love, love, LOVE the different "looks" people come up with and I just want to try them all.

There's a blush tag going on at the moment (I kinda wish I was tagged, but oh well!!) and it's got me in all sorts of trouble, I'm not a blush person or so I thought, as I just can't seem to find the "right" blush for me! So I've been using my lil' blush from the Boots Natural Collection called Sugar Plum, which I love! But since the tag video, that's gone out the window, I think I've bought like 6 blushes, and also added to my mineralized blush collection (which is still at my dad's! I really should go and pick up my deliveries) not to mention I'm just itching with the chance to go and pick up some NARS blushes! Can anyone say ORGASM! LOL!! The one I'm lusting for the most is MOUNIA, it's like this deep raspberry colour, LOVE it!!!

And I must say that although I still haven't really dipped into my new purchases, my application technique has changed, the way I do my smokey eye (my favourite type of eye) has changed and I most say, it's far more consistent and refined, a lot different from my slap it on, hit and miss technique I had prior!

I'm still contemplating doing my own looks and posting videos on YT, but that might have to wait a while until I've settled into my professional development course. I will be posting EOTD, FOTD, hauls, my makeup collection so far, and generally anything to do with beauty/skincare and hair on my other blogspot which you can find here because this blog is more for my designs (which have taken a lil' back seat, but not forgotten) and general ramblings.

...Anyhoo I hope all is well, and I'll be back after this short intermission (",)
