I should not be let loose in Boots around Christmas...

Soo...
I was in Boots the other day, just having a general little browse after work... when I spotted this:

Oh dear. (image: Boots.com)

Yep. I purchased.


In total I got:

• Smallest bottle of Estee Lauder 'Beautiful' they had, think around 30ml - £20.
• The colour collection shown above - £49.

The collection itself is awesome. Heres the description from the Boots website:

"Estee Lauder - The Makeup Artist Professional Color Collection Contains:

• 4 Deluxe Makeup Brushes (Powder, Blush, Lip and Eye
• Look Book with tips on creating great makeup looks with your new shade
• Golden Stand-Up Mirror
• Cosmetic Traveller Case
• Companion Makeup Case"

Its gorgeous. I love it. I did feel slightly sick at the prospect of the £70 odd quid I spent in one go, the day after payday... but to a makeup junkie such as me its totally worth it. obviously.

By the way, did any of you see 'Piers Morgans Life Stories: Cheryl Cole' last saturday?

I loved it, love her even more every time I see her on TV. I just wanted to sit on the sofa and have a chat and a cuppa with her - <3.

Although, I did worry for my makeup addiction levels when, as she spoke about her horrific malaria experience, I got distracted by her brightly coloured nail polish and spent the next 20 mins wondering what shade it was...

I should really get a life. =]

Thanks for reading!
