Paul & Joe lets you play peekaboo with your lipstick ;)

i'm not sure whether to call this cute or freaky..

hmm, maybe cute in a freaky way, or freaky in a cute way. lol.

looks pretty normal on the outside...

roll up the tube and... *gasp* - boo! lol.

i have no idea how to apply this on your lips without 'killing' the cat or ruining your lip makeup. hehe.. so weird. i seriously wouldn't know where to start applying. i guess a lip-brush might be the only logical way. nonetheless, i have to admit the kitty carving is quite delicately done on the lipstick.. very pretty, it's almost like chocolate.. hehe.

not the most practical of lipsticks but definitely a unique collectible and conversation piece. Paul & Joe always has the prettiest packaging and girliest makeup and beauty sets. i don't think i'd be getting one of these (likely very expensive) kitty lipsticks, but the face colour collection for Fall 2010 sure looks very enticing ;) not the usual Paul & Joe single eyeshadows. check them out.
i love the swans packaging, but the colours on the other set look simply gorgeous!
this is sales strategy, the product designers always pair the less interesting colours with the nicer packaging :p

paul & joe x alice splurge

confession: i splurged on paul & joe x alice in wonderland set + new lip balm yesterday :P

have been looking forward to the alice set since november last year, now that it's finally here, i just couldn't resist it! hehehe.. a little treat for my recent hard work.

the collection comes in 2 colours, i decided on the pink/nude version.
the sales assistant said their first batch of pink set has all been fully reserved / sold-out. guess i made a good choice then ;)

soooo pretty, aren't they? lovely limited edition collectors' item. i'll start using them tomorrow - TGIF! yay! ;)

fantasy or daydream?

following up on my post from last november on the paul & joe - alice in wonderland collection...

you can now finally view (and drool over) the actual pictures on paul & joe's official website.

2 sweet sets to choose from - fantasy or daydream - each (S$78) contains a collectible alice metal tin, blotting paper mirrored-case + refill, and a lip treatment stick (more like a lip balm, so don't expect it to show much colour).

sooooo pretty, aren't they? though not extremely practical items :P

the collection is coming to us very soon (launching 14 - 16 march onwards at various P&J counters).. don't forget to mark the dates!

this spring, thanks to Tim Burton's upcoming movie, everyone's suddenly obsessed with "alice in wonderland" all over again. i'm not complaining.. i'm definitely watching the movie, and certainly welcome the cutesy limited edition tie-ups and merchandise as well :)
