Look what i have in my hot little hands.......

I think i may have bought the last one in Canberra.  This is Essence Trend Edition Dark Romance lipstick in 01 Red Romance.  There are ACT and surrounds, and i found this in the 5th one i looked in, and there was only 1, so if you are at all interested in this Trend Edition, grab what you want now, i saw varying amounts of stock left in the stores i went to, but a lot are running out of items.

I'm so glad i found this, it is a gorgeous berry lipstick, and like all Essence lipsticks it is beautifully smooth, doesn't dry out your lips and is well pigmented.

I also picked up the other suede look nail polish from the collection, 03 Moonless Night, a gorgeous dark grey-blue creme (sorry for the shocking photo, Master T was 'helping'.  See the lovely blurry hand pictured?)
 
Finally, i was reading about these on another blog, and the nerd in me had to have this one.

 Face Of Australia Dark Side nail polish in Voldemort!!!!  I am Harry Potter obsessed, and most of the nail polishes that have been created around the series are indie ones and therefore slightly out of reach, so being able to get this for $4.95 was wonderful.  It's a top coat, with varying sizes of black and turquoise 'glitter' (it isn't sparkly glitter, though).  Only thing i would change about it is make the glitter green instead of turquoise, it would better fit it's namesake.

So, there you go, a couple of the items i've desperately wanted and have finally found!
