New Colorissimo lip palettes from Bourjois

I've been having some happy lunchbreak prowls round my local Superdrug recently. First they changed all the fixtures to a new design. Then they introduced Look to our Islington branch. And before that, Bloom got discontinued... it's been all action. Seriously, I've been fascinated.

Anyway, one of the lovely new things that caught my eye during my pre-prandial Superdrug safaris is the new Colorissimo lip palettes from Bourjois. There are 4 colourways, ranging from daytime nudes to "rawr" maroons and reds. Each palette contains an "everyday" shade for, like, everyday, a "statement" shade for big nights out, and a "chic" shade for super-sophisticated dinners a deux. There's also a double-ended flocked applicator (which is puzzling - surely one shade will be left out in the cold?) Best of all, they're currently on offer at Superdrug - £4.99 (will be £8.99)

I love these round palettes Bourjois have taken to producing. The smokey trio eyeshadows are so popular they've been imitated by other brands, while the 5-shade colour pearl palettes with their cute dots of powder bring out the miniature-loving part of me. I have yet to purchase one of those, but I did buy the Colorissimo palette in 03, Roses Fashion (corally pinks). I've yet to try it out, but will post lip swatches once I have.

Will you be picking any of these up?
