Belmacz Beauty - Statement Piece Makeup

From Belmacz, the jewelry line that creates limited edition pieces using rare materials like fossilized dinosaur bone and hawks eye, comes Belmacz Beauty… Makeup made from dinosaur bones? Not exactly. Just like Balmacz Jewelry, this makeup is super-LUXE. Ingredients like pure crushed pearl and 24-karat gold make for a rich experience that mimics the feeling you get when you slip on a fine piece of jewelry.

"Jewelry is to the wearer what an exclamation point is to a sentence," says Julia Muggenburg of Belmacz... With product that glides on like silk and leaves a highly pigmented swipe of gorgeous on your skin - Belmacz Beauty is definitely an exclamation point.

The full line can be found at Barneys.

Bobbi Brown Holiday 2010

Described as a "Tribute to Hollywood's Golden Age..." Bobbi Brown Holiday 2010 Collection looks is fit for a movie star. Each pack leverages the Bobbi Brown crest in a way that feels retro modern even though the date reads "EST. 1991." To even further the lux experience, each piece is housed in a high gloss black and gold carton.



















Thanks to Hot Beauty Health for the photos.

VS Makeup Holiday 2010

L'Oreal Youth Code

Youth Code, the new anti-aging line from L'Oreal, claims to use "gene science" to improve skin quality... Instantly.

The line offers a serum, an eye cream, day cream and night cream and will launch next month.

Revlon Fire & Ice

Tapping into its heritage, Revlon has re-created the Fire & Ice campaign, circa 1952. The print ad stars Jessica Biel and was shot by Mario Testino as tribute to the original. Revlon has brought back its vintage logo on each of the packs, and with it, some vintage glamour. The products will be released for a limited time in December.


MAC Marcel Wanders Collection

MAC has teamed with Dutch industrial designer Marcel Wanders to create their annual couture collection. The line will be available in stores for only four weeks, starting November 24th. Described by Wanders himself - each piece was designed with his "personal heritage... a little bit of old and a little bit of new" in mind, with the aim of assigning value to each piece.

"I like the idea that this is a tool that becomes a jewel..." -Wanders

Here, some of Wanders earlier work.
