Going through Heathrow tomorrow to NYC.

What are the latest Must Buys?

I'm particularly looking for a lipstick to replace my Clinique Black Honey which is now discontinued,which was a sheer,shiney raisin-y colour.Must be a lipstick not a gloss.

Anyone?

why not gloss htough>

I seem to have been wearing various Juicy Tubes for years and am bored,bored,bored of them (bet I buy one tomorrow though).
I especially don't like glosses with a wand for some reason. Even if it is heart/tear-dropped shaped,or whatever it was that Johannson one was advertising a while back.She looks a bit 'Leslie Ash' for my liking in those ads.

have looked at shadow

what abotu the polar blue range?

OliviaMumsnet · 07/11/2007 12:15

Have they really discontinued Black Honey?
That was the first grown up lipstick I bought. Remember the excitement at the fabulous packaging.
Try Elizabeth arden 8 hour lip tint in Plum??

Polar blue very pretty.I like that.
Olivia,that is more like what I'm looking for.

Have never tried cream blush before.

I have (almost) emptied my make up bag in anticipation this morning.

ImportantCod · 07/11/2007 12:50

brimfull · 07/11/2007 12:52

I have decided rimmel eyeliner pencils are the best for me,I am crap at putting any other ones on without looking like a child dressing up.

sugarfree · 07/11/2007 12:53

Ladyblush sounds faintly rude.

Lancome have a juicy tube called raisin that is really nice. Apply it with your finger for a bit of colour as its very strong when put on from the tube

sugarfree · 07/11/2007 13:15

Aha! I have sent Dh through dutyfree on a hunt for that one WGO,couldn't find it and came back with Very Vivid Purple instead.
I did try to look grateful.
(but actually it is quite nice on,more a cerise-y pink)

WatsGoingOn · 07/11/2007 13:17

Oh puke!! I use it all the time, really nice! Clarins do one as well but the staying power isnt as good, have a lovely time!

WatsGoingOn · 07/11/2007 13:19

WatsGoingOn · 07/11/2007 14:19
