Beauty Bounty from the UK and US!
When Iris was away in the UK and the US recently, she helped me to purchase a number of makeup lovelies. Several of these beauties are actually gifts from her and I was very touched when she surprised me with them – not only was she extremely generous, she’d also picked some very apt items for me!
She bought:
- Accessorize Icon Eye Shadow in Purple Promise – a pretty smokey purple
- Accessorize Merged Eye Shadow in Pink Planet – a beautiful baked shadow with pink and lavender swirls
- Accessorize Nail Polish in Mermaid – a stunning sparkly golden turquoise
- Barry M Nail Paint in Dusky Mauve – a smokey greyed purple that is apparently a dupe of Chanel Paradoxal
- Deborah Lippmann Nail Lacquer in Across the Universe – an amazing inky-blue infused with hexagonal reflective teal glitter
- Illasmasqua Powder Blusher in Thrust – a cool-toned plum-pink matte blush
- Physicians Formula Glow & Mood Boosting Blush – a gorgeous blush with raised hearts in varying shades of pink
- Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips in Blue Eye Candy – a palette of interesting blues
- Sleek The Primer Palette – a colourful eyeshadow base palette to pop rainbow hues
- Stila Make Me Blush Palette – another blush palette of hearts but with a golden touch
- Tokidoki Gelato Lip Balm Stain in Skeletrina – a cute grape-coloured lipstain
Everything is exquisite and this beauty bounty is truly a treat. Thank you, dear Iris! ♥






omg omg your lippman nail polish!!!! So hard to find that colour!!!
You’re more than welcome *hugs* Skeletrina looks grape in the tube but it actually applies almost fuschia pink! And it really lasts the whole day as a stain. Do try out the beauty loot soon!
I know you love the hearts like I do. What a beautiful collection of items. I’ll be looking forward to your reviews – especially of the Sleek Primer palette.
WOWEEEE!! Lots of lovely stuff to play with
Hi Mag. Can I use this gorgeous pix for my wallpaper or background?
I get a kick out of seeing everything still in their original packaging!
Nice work with the photography! Cheers!
Hi Cheryn,
It’s sold out on the Deborah Lippmann webby too!
I’m very blessed to have a friend like Iris.
Thank you, thank you, Iris!
I tried the Illamasqua today (forgot to tell you) – SO pigmented! Had to tone it down with the Shiseido white highlighter from Spring 2010. It works well like that.
Now I’m very curious about Skeletrina; will use it as soon as I can.
Hi Marcia,
Now I only need one of the MAC heart blushes from Quite Cute to round off the heart blush collection!
I love everything she gave me – they’re gorgeous, plus many of them are HTF items.
Hi Ling,
I know! Am looking forward to trying everything out.
Hi Milktea,
Thank you! Everything is wonderful and looks so pretty!

Thanks Laurz,
I realise how fortunate I am to be able to try these wonderful makeup goodies!
