Time for New Make-up products?

I said it before and I'll say it again, I'm no expert in women's beauty products, but when I received these samples from M.A.C Cosmetics, I'm not going to complain! In fact, these samples encouraged me to go check out beauty counters to update my outdated so-called make-up collection.

So M.A.C has sent me samples of their new Semi-Precious Collection. The Mineral Mode eye shadow and the Warmth of Coral blush. The eye shadow is made of a shimmery and matte white base with copper-ish and grey veining. Honestly I wasn't so sure if I'll end up using it, but when I tried it on, it gave a nice neutral color which can be easily handled by make-up amateurs like myself. The blush was a no-brainer and it actually complemented my skin tone giving it a nice bronze-like color. Take a closer look at how beautiful the color mixture of the eye shadow and the blush. Don't they look like planets from outer space? 

And the next day, I read on TopShop Middle East facebook page, that they have received a new selection of make-up products at their Avenues store, so I went there to check it out and ended up buying this eye shadow called Solar cell. 

And I fell in love with this sheer and moisturizing lip gloss called Glisten. It's not too glossy and it's not too sticky, it just adds a perfect soft color to your lips minus the usual mess of a lip gloss.

I loved MAC's Semi-precious collection but when I was on vacation and I only found one of the blushes, almost everything was out of stock :(. I got an amazing blush I'm going to post about soon called gold deposit from that collection. You should try it<3. The Topshop eyeshadow looks amazing, cant wait to check it out. Loved the post confashions, eshta66ait :)

I have tried the topshop eye shadow and I liked it a lot! It gives you a shimmery black application with a hint of green :)

Chanel Bags on Discount?!

If you thought that getting a cheap Chanel bag that's within your budget is something too far fetched, then think again. You'll be surprised to know that Chanel's boutique located at Salhiya Complex is currently selling several bags, that are a maximum 1 or 2 seasons old, on discount . And we're not talking about a 2 or 5% discount here, these bags are 50% off their original price! For some reason I always thought that Chanel bags never go on sale. But I guess the printed ones or the ones that are made out of the collection's main fabric have to go on sale. Anyways, I managed to take photos of these 2 beauties. What I love about those bags is that they're a classic shape that never goes out of style, their print is young and refreshing, plus they're quilted. I think they could be a collector's item. Both bags featured here are sold for approximately KD 250 .
