I don’t think Safari is out yet Ana. I’ve read on some blogs that superdug have already got the palette but are waiting for the official launch on 8th July to put them on the shelves. So, hopefully you’ll still be able to get that. As for jewels, I was on ebay eyesterday and I found one there but it costs more than it does in shops!

Acid sounds gorgeous, just my kind of palette too. I think the colors are more suitable to wear on special occasions than everyday, but I’m sure you’ll find a way to make them work I can’t wait to see what you’ll come up with

I never found Safari or Jewels in my local store =[ never even saw swatches! Which is a shame, because Jewels sounds like it’d be a really useful palette to have.

I played with the Acid palette this afternoon, it’s the first time I’ve found neon shades that are actually pigmented. It also has a lovely bright matte but not-neon purple, and some gorgeous iridescent shimmery shades which are more wearable.

It’s a great palette, but the colours in it would need to be mixed with stuff outside the palette to make wearable looks, I think, otherwise it’s just too much pop. I wasn’t very successful this afternoon, not the palette’s fault, but because I couldn’t think of how to use such bold colours together well.

Anastasia: I know, I was shocked but also happy!
I knew you would have loved the Acid palette! I saw some swatches online and it’s an awesome palette for us ladies that love bright shades! I’ve been looking all over the internet to find a website that sells it but I could only find chaos, original, storm and jewels So, I’m trying to convince myself that neon colors aren’t wearable lol Did you see the Safari palette? That looks very pretty too, hopefully it will be easier to get.
That would be very nice of you, but only if it isn’t too much trouble. It’s a shame your local superdrug doesn’t carry more shades, but hope that deal will last a while so you can take advantage of it.

Connie: you’re welcome and thank you! That was very nice of your friend, I hope you get them soon! They’re amazing!

Barry M follows your blog? O_O; Dayumn girl.

If you like, next time I go to Superdrug I’ll swatch the new colours they have for you? My local superdrug doesn’t carry many of the new ones. Sigh. But they have a lot of new fine glitter dusts too.

I loooove parrot green and Block Blue though, and Superdrug are doing 3 for £9.99 again…

But I just bought a new Sleek palette (omg, it’s NEON, Gio, NEON, can you imagine how happy I am?) so no new cosmetics for me until I can pay rent!

Anastasia: I can’t belive you sold the Barry M shadows, they are amazing! But then I guess if I lived in the UK and could go to superdrug whenever I wanted, I might sell some too. There’s no point in keeping something you don’t use.
Thanks. It’s too bad you guys didn’t understand each other, but your layout turnd out to be gorgeous, I love it!

prettybeautiful: thanks a lot! I’m always a bit weary of wearing only green shades since my eyes are grn, but I think it turned out pretty and I’m glad you like it too.

Barry M Cosmetics: thank you
