Topshop Make-Up

The time finally arrived & to be honest I'm surprised it didn't happen MUCH sooner. Now, I won't just be found racing to Topshop after work to nab that dress I saw online before it sells out (which it inevitably will) but on Saturday I found myself browsing through the make-up stand. YES, Topshop Make-up has launched.

I wasn't sure what to expect at first, were there going to be things from mascara to eye shadow and foundation?! or just nail polish and the odd eye shadow. So the selection was pretty good to be fair, with around 30 different shades of nail polish I felt like the stand was glowing, you know like on films when the open the treasure chest and the gold is just gleaming on their faces? that was me. I was immediately drew to 'parma violet' and 'gone fishing'. As a religious buyer of Barry M I already had a shade similar to the minty 'gone fishing' so parma violet it was. I was like a woman posessed! I didn't even need it. I just wanted it, because it was new. At £5 I would say that was a decent price with Barry M coming in at £2.95 it is slightly more expensive then my regular brand but with the diverse rang of colours the odd pot is worth it! The prices of everything else was average too! There's nothing really about the mascara that stood out to make me want to deviate from my regular brand but the selection of eye shadow was plentiful. With circular containers each with two different shades in and 6 different colour combination available, it's easy to justify the mere £6 price tag. The only other thing that stood out was the shades of the blush. It took me so long to find a shade of pink which didn't make me look like a clown but enhanced the natural pink my cheeks already had, I ended up buying it in Milan! Topshop's £6 'Blush in a Flush' will definitely be my next blusher buy when my swish Milano blush runs out. The rest of things Topshop Make-up had to offer included skin glow, skin tint, lipstick, lip glaze, lip gloss, lip polish, eye liner, eye crayon, eye kohl and eye glitter. Now to see how well my new Topshop nail polish compares to my trusty Barry M one!
