Fall 2009: Bobbi Brown Nudes Collection.

June 30, 2009/

It is not even feeling like summer yet and I need to start talking about fall collections. It's not too soon is it? Especially when it is swoon worthy like the newest fall beauties from Bobbi Brown. This is the Nudes Collection.

Bobbi says

Nude makeup never goes out of style—it’s polished, sophisticated, and always looks modern. Nude makeup doesn’t mean monochromatic, barely-there makeup. It means makeup that’s right for your skin

I agree with her. What do you think? If you are not a full-on nude makeup believer, I bet that you will be, once you see this line-up.

The star product in this collection is the new, limited-edition eye palette for fall. The Nude Eye Palette features eye shadow duos in a sophisticated and universally flattering selection of shades and textures. The eye shadow duos come in Bobbi's customizable 3 Pan Palette, which can be filled with your choice of any Bobbi Brown Eye Shadow or Blush shades.

Bobbi also introduces a new shade to her iconic Shimmer Brick collection- the Nude Shimmer Brick. This brick features five pure pearl pigments in pink, gold, bronze, beige, and caramel. The shades are designed to be blended together to give all skin tones a soft nude, lit from within glow. Beautiful!

In addition the Nudes Collection includes Caviar Ink Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner. If you did not know, Bobbi's Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner is one of her best sellers. This one is a beautiful rich, deep brown shade.

The Nudes Collection rounds out with four new shades of Bobbi’s popular Creamy Lip Color that compliment the Nude Eye Palette and Nude Shimmer Brick.

Officially Fall.

September 22, 2008/

Is it okay that I hate the Fall? I mean going from the warm heat of the Summer, spending so much time outdoors - to having to bundle up, close the windows and get the kids back into the school routine. I just don't like it. except for one thing - the Fall makeup collections. I don't wear much makeup at all in the Summer months, so it is refreshing to play again with color.

This new Fall collection from Elizabeth Arden boasts beautiful shades and products to shape, shadow, line and define. From natural tones to rich evening shades, everything you need for looks that are, well...totally intriguing. Appropriate as this is called The Double Intrigue Eyes Collection.

The stars of the collection are the new Color Intrigue Eyeshadow Duos. There are seven new color combinations in duo form. The packaging is sleek and more modern, with the most beautiful script engraved onto the compact itself. It is a quote from Miss Elizabeth Arden herself, "To be beautiful and natural is the birthright of every woman.".

The eyeshadows in new shades are rich colors, but in the most beautiful natural tones. The colors are true, glide on like silk and give color payoff as they last through the day. The seven shade combinations: Autumn Leaves, Peacock, Illusion, Golden Moss, Pink Clover, Blue Smoke and Black Currant.

To keep the eyeshadows looking their best through the day, there is a new Advanced Eye-Fix Primer available. The popular Eye Fix Primer gets an update in the new formulation is is advanced with Vitamins A, C, and E, along with a complex blend of botanicals. This primer primers the eyelids, smooths and soothes them, making the whole eye area look bright, while making shadows last all day.

Using this powder with the fabulous Kabuki-style brush, leaves the skin with a sheer, yet beautiful subtle shimmer.
