mac; pretty in pink

So, a week has past since I visited the Capital, and I'm already itching to get back! There's just something about London that gets my heart beating that little bit faster; is it the quaint array of lusciously expensive stores that line the square of Covent Garden? Perhaps the devilish inner city district of Camden, cluttered with it's unique bars and even more unique people? Or could it be the city's inability to ever fully sleep, the underlying background noise that leaks through your door and climbs through your windows? Who knows, one thing is for certain...I just can't get enough!

Anyway, a trip to London isn't a trip to London without a visit to what, in my eyes, is the Queen of all shops, the staple in department stores...oh yes, Selfridges <3 And of course, no visit to this magical store that turns your heart to butter and your body trembling in anticipation of leaving with one of the trademark canary bags filled with goodies, is complete, without an insanely long period of time spent at the MAC counter. By the time I'd visited my idea of heaven, my shiny piece of plastic was looking a little worse for wear, so treats were minute, but boy were they good. I've always been a fan of the satin finish lipstick, it last's forever, feels fresh, and gives my lips a little luxury for the billion of hours that it stays! I invested in SNOB, a simply divine rose-pink that gives lips an instant injection of glamour. Of course, one purchase just simply wasn't enough, so powder blush in PINK SWOON was (so sad to say!) my final purchase. As pink as pink can be but subtle enough to be worn day and night, this is my new favourite blush! I apologise for the poor quality of these photos, the lighting in my room was horrific this evening, but I was much too excited to post (my first EVER) beauty blog review....enjoy!
