Kate Spade Finishing Touches


“We see it as the perfect finishing touch,” said Deborah Lloyd, creative director of Kate Spade New York.

We agree! A beautiful lipstick is the perfect finish to a great look, which makes Kate Spade+lipstick a no-brainer. The capsule collection, produced and designed by Poppy King will be available this Fall alongside a complementary collection of makeup cases, compacts, a lipstick-themed scarf, and a lipstick journal.

Supercalifragilipstick - the lipstick/lipgloss hybrid will be available in four shades which offer "maximum shine with hours of wear.."

“Kate Spade New York has long been one of my favorite brands,” said King. “It’s where the best of modern design meets the most inspirational eras of the past. I wanted to make sure that any lipstick bearing the Kate Spade New York name would deliver the same—glamour that is right for today’s woman!”

29 Saint Honore

29 St Honore Fall 2011 Collection by Lancome is romantic, classic and most of all... Parisian. The collection, which is named after Lancome Paris Headquarters, is ultra-feminine.
The Maison Blush is designed with an intricate illustration in the blush itself, and a simple logo on the outside of the pack - "Maison Lancome". The lipstick is a classic bullet and will come in three shades of red. This 'return to classics' is turning up everywhere and we love it.

Lancome's Fall 2011 Collection will be in stores in early September.















Cannonball by Urban Decay

June must be mascara month because there seems to be a new mascara launch every day.
Enter Cannonball, Urban Decay's new, ultra-waterproof mascara. They claim to have actually tested this "exclusive Japanese formula" at sea. Perfect for these hot, Summer days, Cannonball is available on the Urban Decay website now.


Lancome House of Color

To promote the new Color Design 5 Pan Palettes, Lancome has created a huge online presence. They chose 20 style bloggers to create videos about the new product, all posted on the YouTube Style Coalition Channel. Lancome's Facebook page is filled with videos, tutorials and links to shop.

Revlon and Darren Aronofsky?

Revlon's new commercial for Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara is full of star power. Directed by Darren Aronofsky, soundtrack provided by Pharrell... Starring Pharrell and Jessica Biel.

Well They're Not Falsies!

Benefit's Beyond Mascara, They're Real! comes with the promise of revealing "lashes you never knew you had..."

The jet black, no flake, no smudge, long-wear formula is only part of the excitement - the brand new brush is kind of a mix between a regular mascara brush and the Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes which allows for you to reach each and every lash.

The mascara will be in stores in July, unless you live in NYC where Sephora Times Square will be having a special "Flash Sale" on June 10th.

Eye Candy: Chanel Cruise 2012

Chanel Cruise 2012 - The Tale of a Fairy, by Karl Lagerfeld.

Sneak Peak

Givenchy Fall 2011





L'Amour Fou

A new film about Yves Saint Laurent.

Audacious Lashes!

Givenchy, or as we like to call them, The Eyelash Gods (!) have come out with another amazing, new mascara, with a genius brush. The brush has two separate parts - one to create density and one to create definition. The first "brush" is a grooved cylinder - this is the part that gives your lashes volume. The second part of the application happens when you press the button at the end of the cap - another brush pops out, and this one is for definition. Use it horizontally to comb out lashes, then flip it and use the tip to separate and define each lash. Givenchy is known for making the best tools for our eyelashes and this is no exception.
Givenchy Demesure Audacious Mascara will be in stores this Fall.

Here Comes the Sun

Topshop's new limited edition, capsule collection was inspired by The Burning Man Festival in Nevada. The Sandstorm Collection for Spring/Summer 2011 still carries Topshop's signature look, but this collection feels a bit more special with gold, tone on tone packs and seasonal shades with a sun-bleached feel.

Every Woman Can Be Beautiful

Taken from the words of Estee Lauder herself, "Every woman can be beautiful" is not only a nice sentiment, it's the philosophy behind Estee Lauders new campaign. With Joan Smalls, Constance Jablonski and Liu Wen representing the brand, Estee Lauder has honed in on a more multi-cultural approach that is geared to attract their growing global customer. The new campaign will begin to run in June just in time for the launch of two new skincare offerings - Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator and Idealist Cooling Eye Illuminator.
