Miss Selfridge Eye Shadow cream pot : Blast from past

I was going through my makeup collection the other day and stumbled upon a product so old they don’t make it anymore. And the brand doesn’t exist. And people born after 1996 will probably never have heard of this. This is Miss Selfridge own brand makeup, purchased appoximately 1995, and combines 4 metallic cream shadows in a stacking pot. I had to have a little play- on my hand, not my face!- before discarding it, and I was amazed at the memories it brought back.

Nights dancing in London clubs, practicing using liquid eyeliner for the first time, sticking glitter on over the cream for what I thought was a ‘cool’ look; makeup has so many stories and memories and this little pot brought up so much. The colours were still fairly vibrant, and though I won’t risk using it, I admired the swatches on my hand. Remember when Miss S used that heart design?
