The curious case of Essence's Trend Editions....

As you know I loooove Essence and they bring out gorgeous Trend Editions as well, but getting those items gets more and more impossible..

This month they released "Surfer Babe" featuring some nice polishes, a sweet blush and some other cool items.

In Vienna you get Essence at Müller and DM, though DM doesn't release all the collections which I had to realise painfully with the "cute as hell" collection.

So to make sure I went there on the day of release four hours after they put up the set up and that was what I found:


Nothing.

Nothing at all. I couldn't believe my eyes.

No blush, no nail polish.. Just the palette which wasn't that special, so I didn't buy it. I tried the liquid eyeliners and the eyeliner pen and they were of awesome quality and durability.

You oughta know that this was on tuesday - a normal work day. I only know this sold out rate from MAC's special editions..

Such a frustrating experience.. I hope "Surfer Babe" will be released at DM, but who knows.

A word of advice my dear readers, if you really want items of a trend edition from Essence, stay in front of the store until they open and then run as fast as you can! *gg*

Love,

Guinevere

I know what you mean- thats why I mostly just go to the müller at the stadioncenter because they are quite fast with le's from essence& not unlike other müllers- it is so peaceful and quiet there and I don't have the feeling the SA are either hunting me or avoiding me

but essence seems to be going crazy- at least 2 le's every month from now until july/august...
(and there's one going to be released this month called sun club or something like that)

I really like them as well, I'm gonna do a post soon, thanks for your comment :-)

Where did you get them??? Have you been one of the evil girls who were at Müller before me?

I went to Müller in Oeynhausen. They had EVERYTHING!
