Topshop Make-up: Sisters of the New Moon Collection

I have to confess I have only actually tried two products from the Topshop make-up range - I know, as a fashion and beauty blogger that's a disgrace! I've always been intrigued by it but thought for a make up range made my a company best known for its clothing it seemed a bit overpriced! Having said this, the nail polish (Treasure - a beautiful metallic bronze) and the lip liner (Blaze - a bright, daring red) that I do own are both really great quality and gorgeous colours.

Anyway, whilst trolling the internet tonight lusting over all the make up and fashion beauties that I want want want (!) but cannot afford :( I came across the new Topshop make up collection: Sisters of the New Moon. I must say the colours of the actual products don't immediately have me that fixated but I'll be sure to check it out next time I'm in store if not for anything else except that beautiful, eye-catching packaging! Exquisite! All products are available from here and prices range from £6.50 to £10 - not as bad as I initially thought!

Have any of you tried any of these new products? What did you think? Which are your faves?!

Calling All Wonder Women (and MAC lovers)!

If, like me, you eagerly await the glorious arrival of the new MAC goodies every month then here's a post just for you! A sneek peak at March's new collection - and it's not one for the faint-hearted!

Here's what MAC have to say about it:

Banish any thought of being a Plain Jane: M∙A∙C and Wonder Woman have joined forces! For Spring 2011, take a trip to Paradise Island with a legendary line up of super-sized Mineralize Skinfinish, bold Eye Shadow quads, Pigment, Opulash, Lipsticks and oversized Lipglass, jumbo-big Powder Blush and Penultimate Eye Liner, Nail Lacquer and Lash inspired by the larger-than-life Bold Babe. Dashing and dazzling, the iconic super heroine reminds us that inside every woman is a Mighty Aphrodite full of courage, confidence and charisma. Kaboom! Mission Accomplished!

Wonder Woman has always known the importance of astounding accessories. For her collaboration with M∙A∙C, we’ve infused her sense and fantasy and wonder into a vivid collection of awe-inspiring accessories as fierce and feminine as the heroine herself. Bright, bold, superhuman designs in Makeup Bags – from radiant Red to Bulletproof Blue, Utility Belt Brush Sets, and exclusively online, the WW T-Shirt and Invincible Mirror. Shazam!

Look at some of the delights we have to look forward to!

I'm particularly looking forward to the reappearance of Marquise d' lipstick (which appeared in the Blonde, Brunette, Redhead collection a couple of years ago) and the ever addictive MSFs which I'm sure will be as mesmerizing as ever!

I'm not a fan of the packaging however. A bit on the cheap and tacky side, it reminds me of something I would have got free in a happy meal back in the day! What do you think?

Thanks for reading!
