My Lust List

Thanks to all the beauty bloggers around, I have a makeup lust list. I am a drugstore brand junkie and the luxury products are bought only at special occasions. So, I doubt I will ever reach the end of this one...

1. MAC Cosmo Lipstick - Such a lovely colour. This will go well with all sorts of looks. I am pretty sure this will be my first MAC lipstick :)
2. MAC Sunbasque Blush - I have been in love with this ever since I saw Farha rock this in the festive looks she wore for her BIL's wedding. You can see them here. Speaking of Farha, where has she disappeared?
3. NARS Orgasm Blush - Do I need to give a reason why I want this? :) Absolutely gorgeous, cult favorite. Whats not to love?
4. Sigma Make Me Blush Brush Kit - Sigma brushes are great... aren't they? And when they come in this super cute color, who wouldn't lust after them?
5. Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner - I fell in love with gel liners when I used MAC Siahi. Bobbi Brown liners are supposedly better. And they come in 14 shades! Fourteen... our Indian marketeers think all we want is black!
6. Colorbar i-glide in Prunella - Are you surprised to see a drugstore product amongst all luxury ones? Well, this one has been out of stock whenever I have visited a colorbar counter. Hence, it makes the list. I have yet to find my HG purple liner.
7. Benefit High Beam - Rashmi deserves the credit for introducing me to this and making me read more about this. The more I read, the more I loved!
8. Benefit Bella Bamba Blush - Its pink, its packaged like a disco ball and it brightens up every complexion... great buy?

This is just part one... watch out for part deux!

Luxebox in India?

How is that for an idea? Those of you who have not heard of luxe box, you can check out their website here.

I was wondering if such a service was available in India, what would it be like? I'd love for brands like Makari and Fabindia and Khadi to participate in it. Even Clinique, Lancome and Illamasqua that are not easily accessible to us in India ( I don't mean the metros here). But what if the Indian Luxe-box turns out to be full of Lakme, Lotus and Maybelline? Would we like it?

If the luxe-box was all Indian brands Vs a mish mash of the phoren ones, would the ladies be excited with it? Personally, I wouldn't mind either....The idea of a surprise pckage excites me, even if I have to pay a bit. The box costs 12 dollars a month including shipping. Thats approx 550 rupees. I don't think the beauty blogger junta would mind it. Not only does it allow us to test great products, it provides for so much discussion! And for a sample starved country like ours, this could be an instant hit... what do you think? Would you like a luxe box?
