Nectar Of The Gods



bought from Bobbi Brown, Debenhams

I did let out a shriek of joy when the postie delivered this, this morning!  



 

I have never bought 'a collection' of make-up like this before. I feel I could get addicted to it! Beautiful colours, a small amount of glitter, (not keen on too much sparkle; skin's a bit old for that I think, for everyday wear, at any rate).

The round disc is Pot Rouge for Cheeks and Lips (double whammy) in Hibiscus; on my lips top left. With Nectar 44 Lip Gloss on the right. Glossy not sticky.

 

 

Nectar and Nude Eye Palette l-r

Pale Cream Eye Shadow, Soft Buff Eye Shadow, Golden Bronze Metallic Eye Shadow, Pink Bellini Sparkle Eye Shadow, Earth Eye Shadow, Rich Caviar Eye Shadow.

A pretty, everyday workhorse palette.

 

 

A 'posh' version of a fave Jonny Loulou colour that I've worn for years. This is one coat of  Nectar hastily applied and having lasted thru' a steam clean of the kitchen! Maybe with a strong lasting finish you really do get what you pay for!

Appearing on my toenails soon!

(Probably tonight!)

My Little Manchester Treat

 

Hastily taken photos of the new, limited edition palette, by Bobbi Brown and Katie Holmes.



 

A pretty fair colour match even though this was taken in electric light.

 

 

Sharon really took her time with trying out the cheek/lip colours out on me with no pressure put on to buy, which is always nice! These 2 colours are not available in their regular range.

I think this will be a good travel set and a good starter set of BBs' items for me to try - some matt eye colours, some with a very fine glimmer and a glittery brown one. There is also a brown eye pencil.

 

I've also got a foundation stick which Sharon used on me and that I have fallen in love with! I think it will be my lifetime quest to find the perfect foundation; the colour suits, it feels great to put on and blend and seems to have great staying power too! I think that's Winter 2013 sorted then!

 

Was also given a sample pot of Vitamin Enriched Face Balm, that I tried under the foundation. This moisturises and works as a primer too. If I hadn't got a new bottle of MACs prep+prime sitting at home, I think that may have gone in my bag too!

It is gorgeous!
