Palette
Feel Floral and French Thanks to Paul & Joe
In another life, I'd be a fabulous French femme who strolled the streets of Paris in simple but chic outfits. An Isabel Marant dress here, a sequined Vanessa Bruno tote there, and a Paul & Joe coat to top it all off — so French, so chic. Unfortunately, not only am I not even vaguely French, I also can't afford the steep prices of those clothes.
What's Your Take on Palettes?
Makeup palettes usually offer pretty good deals, giving you more makeup than you'd get from buying items separately. Witness Sephora's color play palette ($22), which provides 36 eye shadows, 12 lip glosses, three blushes, and a bronzer in one kit. If that's not an insane deal, then I don't know what is.
Bellissima! Too Faced Decade of Glamour
Wow, It felt like Christmas morning when I opened up my big Decade of Glamour box from Too Faced Cosmetics ($40). Wide-eyed and excited, I eagerly opened up the pink and black double doors to reveal a left and a right leaflet filled with six lip glosses, two lipsticks and a lip balm.
Then, underneath the main panel, there are three full-sized products.
Coming Soon: Nars Bridal Palette
Yesterday, I showed you what was coming for Fall, but in just a few short weeks, Nars Cosmetics is going to launch a stunning four-colored eye, three-colored lip, and two-colored cheek Bridal Palette ($65), which will be available exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue stores. The sleek, rubbery black case, looks just like their other famous, artist palettes, only this one is filled with nine of Nars' best-selling shades.
This palette is all you'll need for your honeymoon or even for the big day (well, while you're at it, throw in some foundation and mascara, too).
Help Fight Heart Disease With Bobbi Brown's Heart Truth Palette
On Friday, New York Fashion Week kicked off with a Red Dress Collection celebration. The first women to walk the runways were dressed all in red (and most also wore red lipstick) in support of National Wear Red Day. It's the first Friday of February, and it was created by The Heart Truth to raise awareness about heart disease—the number-one killer of women in America.
Perfect Palettes at Every Price
This weekend I stumbled across this gorgeous palette from Aussie brand Becca, and I had to do a double-take. The "Best of Becca" palette is a worthy addition to any makeup collection. Unlike most palettes that only have one or two useful colors, this one contains colors that are all flattering on almost every skin tone.
New Product Alert: Benefit Pink to Please a Woman... Gold to Get the Guy!
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Benefit has launched an adorable limited-edition lip and eye palette called Pink to Please a Woman... Gold to Get the Guy! ($30).
Hard Candy Gets Trippy
Here's something sweet from Hard Candy. This Kaleidoscope Eye Palette gives you nine eye shadows for a remarkably reasonable price of $22. When I saw the cost, I had to double-check that the palette actually came with product inside, and much to my delight, it does.
Joan Rivers Does Makeup... And It's Pretty Good!
The other night I was up late web surfing and I came across this really great MakeUp Set - Best of the Season Color Collection Palette ($25) by Joan Rivers. Now before you laugh her off, I'd like to say that if Joan Rivers has one thing, it's life experience. And apparently, she knows what women want when it comes to makeup.
Product Review: Prescriptives The Illuminator
At first glance this Limited-Edition The Illuminator All Over Face Color palette from Prescriptives looks a lot like the famous Bobbi Brown Shimmer Bricks. Unfortunately, when you begin to examine the colors, you'll find that it's definitely not as neutral or as versatile. In fact, instead of being wrapped in a pretty faux-leather gunmetal case, I think it should come with a a warning label that reads: FOR THOSE WHO CRAVE A GLITTERY ORANGE TINT.
