Play at beauty with Sephora Monopoly

sephmono.jpg

I don't deny that I'm slightly makeup obsessed, but I wonder whether buying a Monopoly version of my favourite beauty store would be taking things a step to far. The board is adorned with lipsticks and cosmetics and certainly looks more attractive than the usual primary shades, but I think you'd find it difficult to get your male friends involved.

Sephoras collaboration with Monopoly has created a game that's every beauty junkies dream, as it caters to every known whim of the vain. Have a bad hair day? Get sent to jail without dry shampoo, and pay your way round the course in beauty bucks.

Instead of houses and hotels you invest in beauty products and specialists,the idea being to make your brand the best and collect money off those to poor to afford their weekly dermabrasion.

It sounds quite entertaining, and though it's hard to see in the picture, I think you have the option to play as a lipstick, powder brush or perfume bottle.

It's not the first Monopoly collaboration to exist as there are currently New York versions, Simpsons and Pimps, but I like the fact that this one is aimed squarely at the product junkies. It's just a shame you can't swap your winnings for store credit...

$23.25 from Sephora

This looks great, but I just checked and Sephora don't ship to the UK :( boo! It would have made a great Xmas present for a friend of mine, so Im really disappointed.
