Fall 2011: MAKE UP FOR EVER Smoky Couleur Collection.

/

It’s back, hitting the catwalks once again and this fall it’s full in color. I am talking about the smoky eye. Yes, once again it is a huge trend and it's bolder this season with an assortment of hues. MAKE UP FOR EVER did a great job focusing on the eyes with it's new Fall collection, Smoky Couleur.

The “IT” accessory of the collection is the Limited Edition Smoky Palette ($45).
A nomadic compact Eye Shadow Palette that you can take with you wherever you go. It contains a complete color range of 8 smoldering shades in Matte Black, Deep Plum Shimmer, Metallic Navy Blue, Peacock Green, Metallic Copper, Metallic Taupe, Yellow Beige and White Shimmer. Easy to apply, it provides you with 2 Smoky brushes and holds a wide mirror, it’s the ideal beauty ally. These colors can be used alone or together to create 5 different but all more desirable than the other!

But that’s not it. To complete your Smoky look, Dany has also created a selection of novelties.

First up, the Smoky Lash Color. The legendary mascara is now available in 4 shades like never before to match our 4 Smoky looks. Four ultra pigmented colored mascaras in Brown, Green, Blue and Purple that will give your lashes the same intense smoky result and lashes that are just as excessively curled.

And a Smoky Eye without intensity is not a real Smoky. So big up for the new Kohl Pencil. 

To coordinate with the Smoky Palette and the Smoky Lash Color, MAKE UP FOR EVER has launched 3 unique kohl shades, Pearly Deep Blue, Matte Mocha Brown and Pearly Black Purple that add onto the already existing Black and Intense Pearly Green. The final touch to all true Smoky makeup.

Shop at Sephora for these and all MAKE UP FOR EVER products.

Fall 2011: Bobbi Brown Marrakesh Chic Collection.

/

A few years ago, Bobbi Brown traveled to Morocco for an inspiring week-long bike tour, which took her from the Atlas Mountains to the coastal plains. Can you imagine? What a trip! The highlight of her trip was Bobbi’s first stop to a marketplace in Marrakesh, where she found no shortage of color. Surrounded by jars filled with saturated pigments, mounds of fabric in the most vibrant hues, burlap sacks of anise, cumin and turmeric spices, and antique woven kilim rugs in beautifully weathered colors, her senses were overwhelmed. Moved by these colorful sights and smells, Bobbi returned home with endless inspiration for what is now the Fall 2011 Collection called Marrakesh Chic.

“From the dusty tones to the sandy textures, fall is about rich color made wearable.” - Bobbi Brown.

Featuring intensely pigmented colors, this collection is designed to be smudged, swiped or blotted to create a stained look that’s fresh and wearable. The star products are the Rich Color Eye Shadows, but that is not all. There is an entire collection of color here to admire, with different lip formulas, so there is definitely one for everyone.
