Help me treat myself

I have about 100 euros left to spend in the duty free shop on my way home from holidays. Last year I bought some coco Chanel perfume and some mascara (Revlon maybe, about 25 euros for pack of 2).

I am crap at glamour, but any tips what to look for as a little treat for me?

(PS also have credit card Grin)

It depends on what you are into.

Personally, I'd look at Guerlain makeup - they make lovely lipsticks and their Terracotta collection (summer collection with bronzers and so on) is usually very nice. The Terracotta Eau Sous le vent tan enhancer smells amazing - I just use it as a perfume. The new nail polishes are very good too, and they have a very good brush, which is curved at the corners, so it's easy to apply well.

Chanel make lovely nail polishes, the latest colours are very nice, especially Taboo and Starlet. Their lipsticks and blushes are also very nice.

MAC make very nice eye shadows, powders, blushes and so on. Their lipsticks and glosses are lovely too - I'm just not so keen on the taste/smell of them. And their brushes are absolutely amazing.

Dior make great nail polishes too. I personally feel that the nail polish brush is better than Chanel's.

I think you can find Hermes perfumes at the duty free as well - they can be a bit difficult to find in the normal shops. I can recommend the latest which is called Jour d'Hermes. It's absolutely amazing.
