MAC Peacocky Kissable Lipcolour ~ Woo Me + Enchantee Swatches/Review

I wasn't sure which shades to get from MAC's new 'Peacocky' Kissable Lipcolour collection but i decided on Woo Me + Enchantee, they both seemed to be my kind of colours from the website swatches.

Enchantee is a lovely blue toned pink, very similar to Viva Glam Gaga but in a lipgloss version. Can be built up to be a lot brighter but i prefer to keep it more subtle. The colour is very pretty and quite unusual.

Woo Me is a lovely pink toned nude. For me it's the perfect nude as the pink tones are very apparent. I hate to look washed out with nude lips but this colour was gorgeous.

Both applied well but needed a few coats due to the sponge applicator not holding a lot of product. The application was smooth but a little streaky. It also didn't hold well around the inner parts of lips due to more moisture so they don't last too long. Apart from that i am actually pleased with them, they are very pigmented and the colours are perfect. 

RRP: £16 from MAC

Stunning Alice + Olivia Hollis Dress plus my new US address!

First up i want to apologise for neglecting my blog recently, Christmas and New Year were so busy i had no time to blog! 

I recently purchased a beautiful Alice + Olivia 'Hollis' Dress from Bluefly.com. I had been searching high and low for this dress but it appeared to be sold out everywhere, since celebs like Kourtney Kardashian had been seen wearing it...but I finally found it and it was in the sale! They had one size small left - I couldn't believe my luck, it was obviously meant to be....or so I thought...

After getting to the checkout I realised Bluefly don't ship to the UK! It seemed they shipped almost everywhere else other than the UK which was disappointing. I read their policy and they say that you can set up an account with a freight forwarding company and then place an order on their site. I was confused but intrigued, i did my research to find the cheapest company, that's when I came across Shipito.com. They offered no set up fees just a deposit for your first shipment. 

Basically if a US website doesn't ship to you, you can have it sent to your US address then forwarded to your home address. You pay $8.50 for each shipment that comes in + the shipping cost, they offer many different shipping costs. To have my dress shipped by USPS priority it cost $26 - which is pretty good for international shipping.

I was a little sceptical but i read some reviews and decided this was the best service...so i ordered my A+O dress, had it shipped to my USA address and within a few days it was in my box. Another great thing is that many US companies offer free shipping to US addresses so you don't have to pay twice most of the time. 

When it arrives at Shipito they email you (it also shows in your online account), they then weigh and measure it and give you the shipping quotes. After paying it gets sent - very simple!

Back to the dress....

This dress screams my name! It is so beautiful and quite unique. It retailed for $495 on the Alice+Olivia  website but i manged to pick it up for $261.60 in the sale here, which granted is still quite a lot but i think it's worth it - the craftsmanship around the shoulders is amazing and one-of-a-kind!

I am so happy with my purchase and i am even happier that now i can buy things from the US even if the website doesn't ship to the UK. Shipito also give you addresses in China, Hong Kong, Japan (coming soon) and other US destinations.
I highly recommend this service, click here to get your own  USA address.
