Joining the winter sale madness, I stopped by Paul & Joe at Harrods and Fenwick a couple of days ago. (Paul & Joe’s sale items are usually recently discontinued products, soon-to-be discontinued products, and surplus stock, and they are usually (almost always) 50% off their full retail prices. (Have a look at this post for more information on seasonal sales on cosmetics in the UK.))
All the items I got this time are 50% off retail prices. I would not have purchased these items at their full prices (possibly with the exception of the Body Milk), but, with the considerable discounts, I was very happy to bring home and try these products:

Paul & Joe has updated its website to feature information on the brand’s spring 2011 makeup collection, which will be released in Japan on February 4th. One item that I didn’t feature in my previous post on the collection is Face Color Kit (above, 2 variations), which includes Face Color S, Mini Brush, a piece of Japanese-style wrapping cloth, and a case.
I am quite interested in the kit, as I like the Face Color S in 001 Parasol and the print of the cloth and the case. But I am not sure if this kit will be available in the UK, since it is only featured on Paul & Joe Beauté’s Japanese site, not on the English or the French site. I will keep you posted if I come across any further information.

My post on Kate’s spring 2011 makeup collection has been updated with an image of the new variation of Gradical Eyes A. Could this purple-toned palette be my first ever item from Kate?

NARS’ holiday 2010 makeup collection has got some of my favorite makeup colors: violet, lilac, gold, beige and cool pink. Also, I like the look (and the name) of Trio Eye Shadow in Okinawa, even though the colors might not necessarily work particularly well for me.
