Link Love:Cream Dream
I’m a sucker for beautiful, reusable packaging. The Steam Cream tins just get better and better:
Porky Rabbit, this is my favourite design and is only available on the UK, Japanese and Russian, Steam Cream sites.
A limited edition Swarovksi encrusted tin, appears to be sold out on all but the Japanese Steam Cream site.
Another sweet design form tokyo.
PPQ’s Emmanuel the cat, also available in gift boxed sets of three and still available on the UK and Russian Steam Cream sites.

MAC Cosmetics said they are sorry to have “offended their consumers and fans, and committed to donating $100,000 to a non-profit organization that has a proven, successful track-record helping women in need and that can directly improve the lives of women in Juarez in a meaningful way.”
