A Tartan Tale

MAC’s latest limited edition collection for the holidays: Tartan Tale was revealed in K-town 2 days ago. When I first laid eyes on MAC’s Tartan Tale, I instantly ruled it out based on the unattractive packaging (The tartan should only be allowed to be used if you happen to be Vivianne Westwood, Burberry, or the late Mcqueen), especially when MAC produced gorgeous packaging for their Venomous Villains, Hello Kitty, and beach collections.
   
However, I decided to give tacky packaging the benefit of the doubt, and after a closer inspection, I got sucked into the products. I must admit the products themselves are just fab, I think they’ll be snapped up like hotcakes. The little brush bags are my favorite products of the collection because for merely KD 23 you get to have 5 different brushes for applying eye shadow, foundation, etc… The normal brush usually sells for KD 14 ALONE. I also liked the eye shadow palettes metallic, smoky, and warm. There was also a set of 5 lip glasses that come in a tartan tin. The collection makes a great gift for a beauty junkie.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

Sephora Opening Soon At The Avenues II

Beauty Junkies rejoice! The famous retailer of perfumes and cosmetics and the leading beauty chain in Europe and US, Sephora , will be opening soon at The Avenues Phase II. Personally, I like Sephora not only because of its tempting cosmetic selection, but mainly because I don't feel pressured by sales associates to buy stuff that I don't really need. I can actually touch and try the products without having the sales associate stalking me around and giving me some unnecessary comments about my skin/make-up. I think Sephora will make it big here if it sells its high-end cosmetics which are unavailable at other beauty stores/pharmacies in Kuwait. Does anyone have any product recommendations or favorites?
