SAD GRANDDUO'S UPDATE!

OKAY! So I was made to believe that grandduo's collection was coming out on the 4th of MAY but to my, and many others, horror it actually came out on the 2nd of MARCH. I appologise VERY sincerely for this error (even though I was told the wrong date and it has nothing to do with me, I passed that info onto you guys!) So I really hope that if you guys do have some lemmings going on, that you're able to satisfy your cravings and get what you're after. I am annoyed to say the least as I was REALLY looking forward to these. Not sure if I'll be able to get all of what I'd like. Guess we'll have to wait and see!
Well best of luck to you all, and enjoy them if you get them!

PS. Another big kicker... they're $50 EACH!


EDIT 06/03/09: These are being pushed back a week. Will hopefully be on sale in Adelaide on the 23rd March...
EDIT 11/03/09: These go on sale TOMORROW! 12th Feb!

Black is the new... uh? Black?!



Okay so we all know there isn't really a greater colour than black (except maybe... PINK, that's my opinion though...), well things are about to get blacker. While most of us appreciate, and love, a black look, be it smokey or something else, we now are getting ourselves into something a bit deeper... we've already seen black eyeshadows and some of us couldn't be without our eyeliners, but lipglosses? That's something new and not for the weak hearted...
There's such a range coming onto the market and it's not going to slow down anytime soon!
If you're going to go bold and try this, the experts say to keep it nice and glossy rather than matte! Or you could try it over a matte red lip for something a little special...


Lip Picks and pics:
Lancome Fever Gloss in Phia Black
YSL Pure LipGloss in Pur 49

For a more classic black look, you could try these products:
MAC eyeshadow in Carbon and Black Tied
MAC eye kohl in Smolder
MAC Penultimate liquid eyeliner in Rapidblack
Nars eyeshadow in Nightbreed and Nightclubbing
OPI nailpolish in Black Onyx

Word is MAC is also going to be releasing an all Black collection sometime later on this year!
