Which outlet centre where you at?

I've had a look online and the Designer Room seems to be at most McArthurGlen group outlet centres. The trios were £4.60, some eyeshadow brushes were around £2.50 as well as the jumbo eye/lip pencils. Hope this helps! |

It was one in Wales called Ebbw Vale festival park. It was not a very good outlet centre as it hasn't many shops, but I thought I'd visit as it had been advertised. NYX was great to see! But they have the store Designer Room at many outlet centres including Ashford in London but I haven't been able to look there.

I don't know if this should go here or in the NARS forum, but I wanted to tell the girls in the UK my news, haha. Went into Reading (Berkshire) today and in the John Lewis there they had a NARS stand! I used to always have to go into London to get my NARS fix or get it from the website, but this makes me so so happy. I'm hoping they'll start putting more counters into John Lewis'. (Plus, if you're like me and work for the JL Partnership - discount!)
Just thought I'd let you know since I'm psyched about this, lol.

Hi lovelies
I was bored and was looking into LUSH poducts , but since they are extremely expensive I never got anything in Germany a massage bar is like 12 Euros whereas in the UK its like 6 Pounds ....so I just wanted to let you know that you can order LUSH also from the UK site and save a bit of money shipping is around 6 -7 Euros so definately check it out if you are a LUSH fan !
Ps it just get´s me really mad that in Germany everything seems to be almost 1/3 or even double the price.

MUFE HD ALL shades in the UK
Hello All.
I have been looking for MakeupForever HD foundation for yonks and yonks. I did find a shop in Shepherds Bush called P.A.M but they only stocked a few shades. (they now also do the new shades too but more pricey) I found a new stockist who do all the american shades. So Ive ordered a few foundations and Ive ordered the elusive #92, #75 (hot pink) eyeshadow as well which they had in stock. I ordered #72 which is a vibrant turqoise and #99 which is a bright red.
The shop is called Guru Makeup Emporium. They don't have a fancy website just a price list as such and you ring in with the orders. Of and its cheaper than the P.A.M shop. Hope it all goes well.
the link is....
Professional TV, Film & Editorial Makeup Supplies London
So lets see what its all about. I should get my delivery within a day or 2. I shall update more with some pics then
Cheerio!
P.S have I jumped on the UK all shades bandwagon a bit late?

Anyone know a European online retailer for makeup traincases for freelancing? Something like Yazmo.com but this is a US site and shipping a large traincase is too pricey. Am looking for a European traincase retailer, I have looked everywhere here in Switzerland and even called some makeup schools and they did not help me further!! So frustrating.

Hi, are there any Austrian girls here? I'll be in Innsbruck in June and July and I desperately need to find MAC store there or I go crazy 
I checked and there seems like no store in Innsbruck, where do you guys advice me to go for the closest MAC store? It can be a corner, AVM, or I don't know where it is sold in Austria? Thanks

Hmm just found this website for NYX in the UK, there are a chain of salons based in Oxford, it doesn't say they will let you buy over the phone but i bet if you were desperate and you knew exactly what you wanted they would send it to you ... could be worth a shot?

They sell Cargo on the Boots website and I've also seen stands in the larger Boots stores. I hope this helps.
