Urban Decay Temptress @ Boots

I went into Boots yesterday and asked the lady at the makeup counter if she knew when they were getting the new Urban Decay Book NYC of Shadows (III) and the Naked Palette in, as I'd love to purchase it at Boots so I can earn points on my card.

She said 'do you mean these' and opened a magical drawer just under the display counter which was full to the brim of all the new palettes. She even opened them and let me look at them and hold them. She then told me they weren't on sale until Monday and priced checked them at the till. She then upset me further by telling me that these were already sold/ preordered on a wait list.

Basically she got my hopes up! Now I can't stop thinking about the magical drawer of goodies.


I felt like sneaking back in and taking a set out of the drawer and just buying them at the till, as the boys who work on the cash desk wouldn't know they aren't for sale until Monday as they are already on the system!
Now I know I can't have them, I just want them so much more!

Highstreet Fragrances - Gap + M&S

I didn't realise that Gap sold fragrances so was intrigued to try a 10ml version of their fragrance 'Close' for just £5.

I have been a convert to buying fragrances from the high street after falling in love with Marks & Spencer's 'New York' fragrance in the Autograph line.

It is very reasonably priced as with this little lovely from Gap. In my opinion they certainly rival some of the bigger brands for an every day scent.
