Make Up Store has landed!!!

Well.  I was strolling down Carnaby Street in London a few weeks ago, and like a magpie to glitter, as soon as I caught sight of the Make Up Store, I legged it over there!  Wow, a beautiful boutique of colours, make-up varieties, glitter, pigments, tools, body creams....Oh my!

I had a chat with one of the artists and she explained about the different products that they sell, informed me about the pigments (a big thing if you like your colours to be bold and last) and I was also given a beautifully put together Make Up Store magazine, which is full of features, step-by-step guides to various techniques and a full worldwide pricelist.  I was pretty impressed and bought myself a lovely lipstick and lip pencil (in Prairie and My Precious Coral, if you're wondering!)

The store officially launches this week and they are having various nights targeted at customers, media and make-up artists.  I popped by last night, where I received a 12 month discount card which entitles me to 20% off products from the store (see cards T&C's)  There were also canapes and glasses of wine on offer along with many of the company's artists to advise you on finding those perfect products to beautify yourself.

I was lucky enough to be able to get in touch with one of the guys from their head office a couple of weeks ago, and so last night, he very kindly gave me a 'wonderbag' of products from their current Fifties range (see above) to try!  Keep your eyes peeled for my reviews.

From what Ive seen/tried so far, the products work like a treat and their costs are on par as other premium brands such as Mac and Illamasqua.
