Narciso Rodriguez Creates Makeup Palette

If you're a Narciso Rodriguez aficionado, you have something new to look forward to. This month, the designer will be selling a "beauty palette" package ($84) at Saks that includes one of his perfumes, a blush, and lip gloss. The makeup shades are designed to coordinate with the juice and notes of each fragrance to encourage people to wear all three products together.

Could this be the start of a new direction in beauty for Rodriguez? He wouldn't be alone, as more haute designers are expanding their labels to include cosmetics — just yesterday, rumors surfaced that Tom Ford is creating an entire makeup line. Do you like this direction or do big names in fashion not sway you?
