This baby just came in the mail today – the infamous Lancome Erika F Ombre Absolue eyeshadow *takes deep breath and gazes in awe*<\/p>\n

\"Lancome<\/p>\n

I’d been stalking every Lancome counter I come across in Malaysia for this but because its such a best selling colour, its always sold out. It puzzles me why every time I ask a sales person if they have Lancome Ombre Absolue #133 Erika F they always give me a blank look. Its not until I drag them to their tester counter and point it out does a spark of recognition enter their eyes and they shake their heads indicating they are out of it.<\/p>\n

So, tired of going round the counters (they never called me back anyway although I left my number) I resorted to stalking online stores, in particular StrawberryNET.com<\/a>. I’d seen it there before and I knew that if I was patient, I’d be able to snag it again.<\/p>\n

After months and months of stalking I was so surprised to see #133 G40 Erika F<\/strong> pop up on the screen, I positively froze! Then, I quickly hit the Buy button and waited for it to arrive which it did today! Yay! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Erika F is a lovely green-gray-silver colour. Its available in the Lancome Color Focus Quads<\/a> in #308, #104 and #105. I own #308 and #104 but I wanted Erika F on its own too as its such a versatile colour. I use it both as lid colour or as crease colour and it always turns out looking good. Benefit Skinny Jeans<\/a> is a fair dupe but nothing beats the real thing!<\/p>\n

If you can’t find this color at your Lancome counter, try StrawberryNET.com<\/a>. Patient stalking definitely pays off!<\/p>\n

Happy happy! Joy joy!<\/p>\n
