Laura Mercier's Spring Collection Seduces
No, this isn't the Prescriptives Fall '07 Seducers Collection, but this new Spring 2008 Seduction Collection from Laura Mercier similarly includes edgy and dark-purple eyes and nails.
I've yet to see any product live, but I can already tell from looking at the Eye Colour Quads in Shy and Wild Violette, that this is really going to make my green eyes pop.
And as if that's not enough, if you've been searching for the perfect set of flirty false eyelashes, you can now find three new sets for all occasions.
Beauty Marked! Versatile Violet Eye Shadows
Happy Tuesday, everyone! It was such fun to see all of the violet, purple and lavender eye shadows you found. I know that the colors can often seem garish in their pots, but if you apply with the right makeup brush, they'll look beautiful on the eyes.Trend Alert: Deep Purple Makeup For Fall 2007
We've now seen many previews for the fall 2007 beauty collections, and I've noticed a lot of deep purples popping up for the eyes and the lips. Personally, I love purples, and they look great on those of you with green and hazel eyes, but that doesn't mean that the rest of you can't wear purples too—especially if they are blended with other colors.
Here's another look at three new collections for fall with strong purple influences.
Omnia Amethyste Perfume by Bulgari
Omnia Amethyste by Bulgari, $68, is Bulgari's newest floral scent that was launched in February. The idea was to create a unique scent and bottle for their younger adult fans. The fragrance is very light, elegant and floral and is very appropriate for the 18-25 year old audience.

Beauty Marked! A Deep Purple Nail Polish
Last week I told you I needed a new purple nail polish. While I like the color Carol from NYX that I told you about last week, I am running low and would like to try something new.
I asked you all to go beauty marking to help me find a new deep purple polish.
Trend Alert: Purple Peepers
First it's purple hair and now I'm talking purple eyes. Purple is one of those versatile shades that can be bright, playful, sultry, and subtle, depending on the finish and depth of color. Purple also makes green eyes pop, brown eyes brighter, and gives blue eyes a cool iciness.
Purple People: A Gallery of Fun Hair Color
Leave it to Lady Gaga to do the unexpected. While in London, the normally blond singer stepped out with a whole head of purple hair, accessorized with a purple-toned lipstick and a matching teacup and saucer. Does it make you grin or...
You Can Pull Off Raisin Lipstick Like Charlize Theron
At last night's screening of her new movie The Road, Charlize Theron exchanged her usual golden-girl makeup for a semimatte raisin lip that, with her waved hair, made her look like a silent film star. A shade like this can be hard to pull off, but not if you follow a few simple tips. To find out how anyone can wear a dark purple lip without looking washed out or harsh, just keep reading
Beauty Mark It! A Deep Purple Nail Polish
A friend of mine gave me a bottle of NYX Nail Polish in Carol, $4 (bottom row, fourth polish from left) over the holidays. I've been using it since December (mainly on my toe nails) and believe it or not, it is already running out!
What I like about it is that it is still pretty trendy since it's dark, but it's not so dark that it looks black.
The One-Hit Return of . . . Street Drug Slang or Eye Shadow Shade?
Apparently, the people who name eye shadows and the ones who make up street drug slang have more in common than a love of powdered substances — their choice of words is eerily similar as well. While drug abuse isn't funny at all, some of the names the government has collected that are supposedly used to describe them are, and eye shadows are sounding downright wild, if not pornographic, lately. Can you tell which of these is a harmless cosmetic and which a hard street drug?
