A new top beauty stop

Beauty obsessed fashion addicts your prayers have been answered. From May you'll be able to get your hands on the latest make-up must haves while shopping for your summer essentials.

Britain's favourite high-street store, Topshop, have created a make-up range so good it's set to rival their fashion credentials.

They have collaborated with top make-up artist Hannah Murray to create a line of cosmetics that's both on trend, great quality and most of all affordable for all us fashion and beauty lovers.

There will be a permanent line of make-up bag essentials throughout the year with on trend additions to the range on a seasonal basis. Below is Topshop's exciting Spring/Summer collection.

Capturing the festival spirit the spring/summer collection is made up of a range of gorgeous products to make sure you look you boho best this summer.

There are sparkling pigments, bohemian coloured eyeshadow trios, a golden highlighter, glittery nail polishes, earthy Kohl pencils and two beautiful eye crayons in the most unique and amazingly pigmented gold and silver.

I love the packaging, I'm drawn to anything that sparkles and gold. The mixture of white, gold and almost scribbled drawings makes this collection appealing to both teenagers and the older cosmetic addict.

The permanent line is like a make-up lovers treasure trove with more hidden gems than a magpies nest.

I luckily got a chance to play around with the line this week and I was shocked at how great quality the products were and the colours available. Everything had great colour payoff and felt lovely, I obviously haven't had a chance to wear anything but I can't wait to!

Below are some of my favourite products, the pictures and colours are from the press pack I was given at the preview.

I'm a true sucker for nail polish and some of these look great, I spotted a few gorgeous colours I can't wait to buy. The Big Easy, a beautiful powder blue, Gone Fishing, a unique teal and of course the lilac, Parma Violet.

The brushes on these looked perfect, small and fat meaning less brush strokes per nail and more coverage.
The product I'm most looking forward to are their Macalike cream blushes which came in 6 delicious colours with great pigmentation and a lovely creamy formula. If you missed out on Mac's cremeblend blushes these are a great dupe.

The below swatched does not do them justice in real life they were gorgeous and vibrant. Flush and Neon Rose especially.
As a self confessed lipstick lover a make-up line would be somewhat meaningless to me without a nude lippie and Topshop delivers a covetable one for those who like the barely there look.

I spotted it a mile away, Desert is a gorgeous peachy nude which really reminds me of Mac's N2 mixed with Hue. It looks like it will create the perfect not too chalky or pale nude lip. YAY!

Below are my two favourites, Desert which looks darker than it is and Brighton Rock a vibrant fuchsia pink.

Topshop is looking like it's set to be my new number one beauty stop this summer, I can't wait to get my hands on it all come May the 5th when it hits 40 stores around the country.

It will also be available online and the range are priced between £5 - £15.

Will you be popping in to Toppers to take a peak?? xxx

I'm so excited for the launch of Topshop make-up - very jealous that you got to see the collection before everyone else! The packaging looks really nice and the shades look lovely too. I'll definitely be treating myself to a couple of things! x

*sigh* i really wish there was a topshop in vancouver.

then again, i'm glad there isn't coz then topshop won't be so special anymore.

anyway, can't wait to read your reviews on the products, they all look lovely. :)
