If you follow my tweets, you may have heard my angry rants about how Kiss And Makeup NY lost my parcel, and how awful their customer service was. I had spent over $100 on an order, which never arrived. After 4 weeks of waiting, I starting emailing them to find out whether there were any delays they knew about- each time I emailed them, they took forever to reply (with a generic ‘sometimes things take longer through customs, give it another few weeks’ answer). In the end I never received my package, and Kiss And Makeup NY customer service essentially told me that it was my fault that I didn’t insure my items.
I mourned for my lost package for about a month, then I decided to reorder some of the items and pick up a few more things at Nordstrom. Elise from Stuff That I Bought kindly offered to be my makeup mule since she is living in New York at the moment, so here are my new pretties! (thanks Elise, you are the best thing ever).
Hauled:
MAC Bronzer in Bronze
Jack Black Lip Balms Natural Mint
NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Fiji
YSL Glossy Stain #9 Rouge Laque
Revlon Lip Butter Red Velvet
NARS Pure Matte Lipstick Moscow
Burberry Lip Velvet Antique Pink
Burberry Lip Velvet Rose Pink
MAC Pro Longwear Lip Pencil ‘What A Blast!’

[...] The Burberry Lip Velvets are an example of a beautifully formulated matte lipstick, with a gorgeous colour range. I looked into the Lip Velvets after Yishan from Beauty Swatch recommended them to me, and eventually ordered Antique Pink, and Rose Pink from Nordstrom (see rest of haul here). [...]
