Laura Geller & Alpha H TSV's/Beauty Day 13/2/11

[Laura L'occitane Earle]

I think the "too much purple" refers to the eyeliner, which is a purple shade called "egg plant". Now that I have seen the price (well over the £30 mark) I have made up my mind that I definitely won't be buying. I know VAT has gone up by 2.5%, but I would have made that an increase of 75p on the usual LG TSV price of £29/£30.

Sorry, not tempted......yet!!!

Will have to find alot to occupy me on Sunday and keep me away from the TV so that AY doesn't hypnotize me into thinking that I literally actually do really need this set to improve the appearance of the whole of my face area.

I'm seeing earthy/neutral tones but I have now had a couple of large glasses of vino!

I'm surprised you're not seeing red then :glass:

 

[rainbowdottie]

Hmmm,I already have the eyeliner.Blush looks terribly like etheral (sp) rose.Suppose I would only be buying for the eyeshadows as can take or leave lipgloss and BB.Wavering myself now,unless its on some stupid easypays!

 

[rainbowdottie]

I see in the blog,the eyeliner is not eggplant but purple paradise - which I don't have - wonder if theres much difference?

 

[Snowstorm]

I'm surprised you're not seeing red then :glass:

Ha ha will take a bit more than a couple of glasses to have that effect!

Thanks Sazza, have ordered mine and have used the ENJOY5 voucher. Yay!!!

 

[craftology]

I like it. I don't need more pinky make-up after the BE auto-delivery but it's soooo pretty! I should probably just head over to Lily Lolo and order a couple of eyeshadows and be done with but I'm soooo tempted.

TSV is already on the auction site!:thinking:
Or maybe it's just the powder. Not very clear.

 

[miss molly]

I can't believe they did not put the TSV on EZ pay, i am not tempted so my money is safe.

My voucher said to use on Elemis but I ordered some LG. It does work.

 

[Silver Fox]

NOOOOOOO Not going for this ( & mean it this time!!!!) the colours look very nice but I prob have the blusher already, eye colours look a bit glittery ( for me) am not keen on the lipglosses so there is only the B&B left ( oh have more unused eye pencils).Am going to the pub at lunchtime so will confess if I weaken later--- must F.A.R.T

 

[Jantaculum]

I couldn't resist - every time I have passed on a Laura Geller TSV, I've regretted it. AND I'm practically out of Balance & Brighten.

 

[Breeze]

I've ordered it & was able to use the £5 voucher that implied it was only for Elemis in the email I recieved........chuffed!

 

[RedT]

Aw, it didn't work for me and now the website has gone down so i can't try it again! Maybe the gods are telling me to RESIST!! ; )

 

[RedT]

*cough*

There's a small chance I may not have resisted and ordered anyway! My reasoning is that I'm moving to Australia in July and so probably won't have access to LG anymore. So I'm stocking up!! :blush:

[Akimbo]

Just had a rummage through the stockpile :thinking: and I already have the Roseberry blush (who knew?) so I've had the satisfaction of "painting along with Nancy" this morning and I know I've got the equivalent shadows and lip gloss in the hoard so I'm skipping this TSV.
I would have bought the Tropics set like a shot so I'm feeling quite virtuous in not buying :rock:

BTW the blush looks similar to Ethereal Rose in the compact but is a stronger, less sheer pink. Apply too heavily and it's positively bubble gum pink!

I caught the launch last night with AY and Laura.

What I noticed was AY was wearing the TSV, appart from the eyeliner. Oh no she had the usual thick black liner round her eyes. And as usual did nothing for her at all. Think if she had let Laura use the purple it would have been softer and far prettier.
