A SPOT OF SHOPPING DURING A WEEKEND GETAWAY...

Hi guys!  Sorry, I've been out of action for a while. Hope you've been well and had a great weekend as I did.  I went over to lovely Sydney this weekend and snuck in a little bit of shopping. ;-)

Firstly, I finally caved in and purchased the Tom Ford Nail Lacquer in 'Dominatrix' (22) (purple with silver iridescence).  A little late to the party with this, but at least now I can stop 'umming and arring' about it. :)

Of course, my idea of Sydney beauty shopping is never without the obligatory visit to the Chanel Makeup Studio, and it was perfect timing, because the Chanel 'Hong Kong' Collection was also just released!  Yay!!! ^_^  I purchased the Chanel Nail Colours in 'Western Light' (deep brown with a hint of purple) and 'Eastern Light' (white) from the collection.  I'd seen swatches of the 'Eastern Light' in particular online and loved the look, so I'd been waiting for them since. :)  They are limited and exclusive to Chanel boutiques and Chanel Makeup Studios.  If you're interested, I would suggest you hurry and snatch them up as soon as you can!

I also instagrammed the cute, little shopping bag from Chanel in which my brand new nail polishes were placed.  It's embossed with the outlines of Chanel Nail Vernis bottles and Chanel Lipsticks. ^_^

David Jones currently have a gift with purchase offer (see photo below) on Becca Cosmetics (see where to get and how HERE).  The offer was only available in-store, so I waited for my trip to Sydney to get a hold of the latest Becca 'Dethroned Collection' and take advantage of the offer.  From the collection, I purchased:
  • Nail Colour in 'Camelot' (dove grey)
  • Ultimate Crème Eyeliner in 'Belle Epoque' (shimmering plum)
  • Eye Priming Perfector
  • Lip Priming Perfector
  • Ultimate Matte Lip Colour in 'Eloise' (ballerina pink).
Below is a photo of what's in the gift with purchase for Becca in David Jones: a satin clutch designed by Rebecca (founder of the makeup brand) and Mineral Blush in 'Bolero'.
From Kit Cosmetics, I purchased were the SmashBox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, which I've never tried, but heard so many good things about.  I have combination skin, so I'm hoping this will help control oiliness in my 'T-zone'.

Last, but not least, I purchased the Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Eye Serum.  I've been enjoying a lot of Aesop products lately and this was one I recently tried a sample of and loved.

I'm pretty excited with these products and looking forward to playing with them. ^_^

I'll leave you now with a few happy snaps taken with my iPhone of my adventures in Sydney, which I also shared on Instagram (do follow me there, if you like!  Would love that. ^_^)...
