Since telling you last week about Paul & Joe's take on the whole Alice in Wonderland thing, I haven't been able to get the prettiness of their offerings out of my head.
It doesn't help much that there's a lovely face powder compact of theirs taking pride of place in a drawer of one of my Muji make-up organisers - every time I see it, I make a mental note to add to my sadly meagre Paul & Joe collection. Having to decide between goodies from their new releases might be tough going, though - the brand have both a colour collection called Wildflowers and a limited collection called Sparkles on the way for SS10. Eep!
We'll see the release of five shiny new nail enamels and five dreamy new cream blushers with the Wildflowers collection, together with a choice of twenty-five eyeshadows in satin, silk, or suede finishes which you can pick and choose from to create your own three-pan custom palette. For the most part, all colours are decidedly Spring-y, and the line will be released in Paul & Joe's signature pale pink packaging.

The Sparkles collection, meanwhile, will be putting in an appearance in some slightly different threads featuring prints from the brand's SS10 fashion line. It's a bit more sparsely populated than Wildflowers, with three pots of eyeshadow, £14, (top) and three solid lip gloss lacquers, £18, (above), but with flowers (eyeshadows) and butterflies (lip glosses) embossed on the surface of the offerings there's no denying the cute factor.
And I predict that kitteh fans will particularly like the Honeysuckle eyeshadow, which features two kittehs holding paws on the pot. Awww...
Availability? Paul and Joe is hard to find in Ireland, but stockists include Seagreen, The Makeup Boutique, Belfast, and Purity Everyday Elegance, Ballina. HQhair is also a good bet though this collection doesn't seem to be currently on the site.
