I am in no way a fashionista, but I have a basic understanding of Topshop. If you haven't heard of Topshop before, it's a very popular UK clothing company that has, to my knowledge, just one retail location in the states (in NYC). And much like other clothing and apparel retailers of late (Forever21, Payless Shoe Source, Aldo, American Apparel, just to name a few), Topshop has entered the cosmetics biz and released some collections full of pretty things for us to consider.
While some of their makeup is priced like higher-end brands ($16 for an eyeshadow trio), there are some reasonably priced items that just might be worth our while.
In their Core Collection, they have some very pretty shades of cream-to-powder blush ($12). It appears that they're also going to be releasing some nail colors (if you look at the photo on the Core Collection homepage you can see them) but they're not yet available on the site. I did, however, spot these polishes ($10) but there are just a few shades available.
Also in the Core Collection, there are these adorable little Lip Polishes ($12).

(photo: topshop.com)If you're planning on ordering some makeup from Topshop.com, don't forget to check retailmenot.com for current coupon codes before you place your order. It appears that Topshop often has free shipping promotions, which sure beats their normal shipping fees ($15 flat rate).
So what do you think? Is there anything here you're considering? Do you already own some Topshop makeup? I'm hoping some of my lovely UK readers will chime in here since you all have such better access to these goodies. I'd love to hear from some of you who have seen these products in person!

I love the look of the cream blushes and the eye crayons, i can't wait to get to a Topshop to swatch them all.
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of polishes over here already but it says they're not available overseas yet. Dunno why.
I live in NYC so I will definitely go to the store and check them out. Looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteI doubt I'll be trying them. I already have 4x makeup than I had this time last year (thanks to you!) and I love it all! When I can have high-end quality and results at low-end prices, why would I purchase anything at the high-end prices.
ReplyDeleteLillian: Oooh, thanks for the info about the polishes! Do you own any? I can't wait to see what you think of the rest of this line once you see everything! :)
ReplyDeleteMz. More: Can't wait to see what you think of these!!! :)
Denise: LOL!! You flatter me!! I agree, this stuff seems a little pricey, BUT, if these liners are UD dupes, and they're only $10, it might be worth it to some. :D
