New Drugstore Products: Twilight Beauty, Quo, N.Y.C., Rimmel,

You would think that all the new products coming lately are glittery, shimmery and sparkly due to the impending holiday season, but that wasn't so. Of the collections here the only remotely Christmas-y stuff is the Rimmel palette and the Quo collection, but more on that later.



With the Twilight Beauty products, last month on my trip across the border I already saw the Bella/Alice/Rosalie/Victoria palettes (part of the Luna Twilight collection) at Nordstrom. Finally, that collection has arrived in Canada, seen in Shoppers Drug Mart and London Drugs.

Now, as the new movie is coming out, they have a new collection called Volturi Beauty Twilight. Honestly I find these products too expensive for what they are. They are totally riding the Twilight wave and trying to scam tweeners, teeners and the like of their parent's money. I believe one palette is $30CAD. A single eyeshadow is about $22CAD. I won't be wasting my money on those.



For those of you not familiar with Quo, it is Shoppers Drug Mart's own premium brand of cosmetics. Although I don't own any of it they are actually quite quality products. I especially love their holiday collection this year. If you can see the pictures on the top corners of the backboard, they are kind of treasure boxes with eyeshadows, glosses and blushes in one pack. They are both beautiful. The one on the left looks like baked shadows and the right one is just normal pressed shadows. Both are beautiful. I really had to hold back not to buy both of them. The rest of the collection are quite good too. Check them out if you see them.




N.Y.C. has a metallic Fall collection. Nothing really enticed me except for the metallic gel/creme liner in the bronze color. The polish was actually pretty enticing too but I've already got my Mr. Wrong.







I think this is Rimmel's holiday palette for this year. I remember they had one last year and it looked much prettier, with faux rubies all over the lid. This one's not too exciting either. The colors aren't really worthy of the word "gorgeous", I really won't spend money on this either.

Well that's all for now!
