    What or where is Ethil Austins - what sort of shop is it, is it a chain store?

    I missed that at Xmas & I'm still gutted:( :(:(
    Yes, Ethel Austin is a chain store. I hadn't realised there was so much good stuff to be had there (I have never set foot in one as the signage gives the impression that it's a bit of an "old lady shop").

    I'll definitely start browsing there occasionally now!

    I love Ethel Austin, I got a pile of Australian Bodycare stuff from my local one but I haven't been for a while
  • Im an absolute lock stock the lot MAC junkie. Everything in my make up bag has that black finish with the white word MAC adorned on it... sad I know, but it all looks oso nice when it matches! :)

    My friends and I are so sad about it all...we call each (s)MAC(k) addicts as we have to have a fix of it every so often and can spend hours in the shop looking at it all and marvelling at the pretty colours lol!

    But seriously, though their entire range is good, and i really do think that they cater for all skin types - I have awful skin and this is what got me MAC-addicted in the first place - their foundation range.

    Anyone know where you pick up MAC any cheaper?

    I had some MAC lipstic and eyeshadow from http://www.buycosmeticsdirect.com/ once but it is a bit hit and miss as to what they stock.

    Re getting MAC cheaper - there is a shop at the Bicester Village Retail Outlet centre called 'The Cosmetic Shop' (I think!) and they sell clinique, Estee Lauder and MAC in there, it is cheaper but not tremendously cheap!

    I must be a bit skitzo then, because I've heard or both.

    Or does it just mean I'm in the "middle" age, NOT MIDDLE-AGED:mad: :mad: :mad: I never said middle-aged:rotfl:

    My sister was trying to tell me I was middle aged to other day.

    I told her 40's are the new 30's:D :D:D

    FYI
    MAC is trendy & Ethel Austin is for old ladies (I think):p

    If we hang about on the beauty forums is it because we are all pretty & girly:D
