Cadburys Flake and Benefit and Illamasqua


So i've just found out that Cadburys Flake (still delicious though they've been bought out by Kraft, boo hiss) has a giveaway with Benefit going on (presumably only in the UK). They're giving away 1 million Benefit Lipglosses and Lipsicks. I found out because i sent Claire out to buy me chocolate and she came back with one for me because she'd seen the offer and knows about my makeup obsession. I ate the yummy yummy chocolate and then entered the code online and guess what, i won! :D
There are about 8 shades you can choose from (i picked Flirt Alert, what looks like a bright red) and they say it should be with me in less than a month. The offer goes on until Halloween.
I have a great girlfriend, she brings me chocolate to make my tummy feel nice and with it a lipstick to make my mouth feel nice :)

In other makeup news the new Illamasqua collection is coming out in April (sneaky peak here ) i am SO excited about it. It sounds amazing, i love the ideas behind it, but then i love the ideas behind all of the Illamasqua collections so far. I just love the idea behind Illamasqua really! In honour of this i am declaring next week Illamasqua week so i shall be reviewing all of the Illamasqua products i have :)

Apparently there will be some blogger events to celebrate the new collection. I so so wish i could go. I always get a little envious seeing people at Bloggers events because they just look so fun, meeting people you've only spoken to on the internet in the flesh and hearing all the exciting new things from the brand and getting to try things out before the public, it just seems like a lovely perk of being in some secret special club. And the Illamasqua ones just look amazing and so much fun, and as they are pretty much my favourite brand these days it would be such an honour to attend. But then because of my shyness i would probably die of nerves so it's probably for the best that i don't get invited.

Just saw Lady Gaga on Jonathon Ross. Love her so much and i want so many of her clothes. Today she was rocking an amazing 'living dress' and a hat shaped like a telephone that i desperately want. Now 'Clue' the film of Cluedo is on and i am very happy.

  1. Yum, I love Flake! At Wendy's in Australia they used to make the BEST flake shakes. Drooools...I want one now...but that doesn't justify a flight to Oz, LOL. Congrats on winning a lippie! I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts on Illamasqua too =)
