It’s funny that given the blaze of publicity many beauty blogs (including my own) gave to the new Topshop Make Up range that was released a few months ago, not much has been said or heard of it since. We’re so fickle!
The collection which goes by the name of Heavy Duty, consist of 17 items including a mirrored eye shadow duo palette, lip markers (reminiscent of those that featured in the MAC Art Supplies collection), and a number of other products for the eyes. lips and nails such as liners, polishes, glosses and eye crayons.
The Limited Edition A/W collection will be available at selected stores and online from late September. Priced between £6-£10, it won’t burn a hole in your pocket.
I’m sure I’ll pop into Topshop at some point and have a look at the new collection when it’s released. Will you or are you over Topshop Make Up now?
I had a play with this collection last week and it's not as bad as the first collection (which I thought was a bit crap) – cheap and very on-trend which fits the market I guess.
Saw the Kohl Dust being applied and it wasn't bad actually – but only if you like the messy, worn-in smokey eye look since it's not very precise and has fall-out issues. No7 did a similar liner with a lot more control…
I wasn't to keen on the collection, but I am a sucker for the red lip marker
@D.D – I don't favour that look on myself at all. I just look like a dirty tramp who's got crap eye make up on. I envy girls who can carry that smudged eye look off 🙁
@Wande's World – I don't think they suit me and I HATED the MAC lip markers. The eye duo looks nice.
i recently bought the eyeshadow blending brush, but since seeing it in the shop, i hadnt heard of the topshop brush range, there was no publicity about those, only the makeup haha xxxx
That super dark glittery(?) black gloss looksamazing. Definitely something I'll pick up! I'm a fan of the Topshop cream blushes, they're fabulous 🙂
It's funny because I really didn't care the for Top Shop line when it first came out (it looked a little juvenile to me), but there are some things here that are piking my interest, like the pewter eye pencil and the nail polish.
Yeah I don't know…doesn't wow me.
I just have something about clothing stores doing make-up! x
Thanks for the heads up. No doubt we'll all be sporting Kohl Dust very shortly, hehe
xx
Wasn't impressed by the first collection, but I will still check this out, if I'm in the area.
ooh cant wait to try the gel liners! im such a sucker for them! when is it released? xx
I really wanted to like the first collection but I had issues with all the make up I bought, staying on! Even with primer, it didn't last at all. Don't know if its worth giving anything from this collection a go?

Hmm, I found their first collection totally uninspiring and overpriced for what it was, not sure about this one, will have to swatch it in the flesh one lunch time 🙂
I just discovered your blog – it's great and am following 🙂

SO excited for this, I adore my Topshop make up!

I never got round to trying anything from the first collection but really like the look of some of these products – I love dark eyes for winter so the Kohl Dust sounds fab. x
I didn't really like their first range as the packaging made it look a bit cheap and there wasn't anything that exciting or that I hadn't seen before. However, I have to say that their A/W range looks a lot nicer and I might go down to swatch some of it when it comes out! xx
hmm sounds pretty nice actually!
I need the Kohl Dust in my life! I love a smokey eye, me. xx
I actually like all the items in the promo pictures, loving the dark lipgloss too. xx
