Spring Beauty 2009: Estee Lauder Fuchsia Now



Estee Lauder will soon be releasing their new spring collection, Fuchsia Now, and i am excited about it-- everything looks gorgeous!

Taking cues from the spring runways, Estee Lauder’s new, limited edition Fuchsia Now Color Collection is a feminine, flirty and fun color collection that encapsulates the trend of wearing bold color combined with soft neutrals. Fuchsia Now contrasts light and bright, pairing warm honey and tender peach shades with vibrant fuchsia for a look that is flattering for every skin tone. Cheeks bloom with a hint of fresh color, while eyes allure in shades of deep indigo and rich earth tones. Lips are full, soft and lustrous and are enhanced by perfectly polished nails in complementary shades. Soft petal designs, featured in the collection’s powder compact and eye shadow palettes, highlight the vibrant fuchsia touches and reinforce the season’s upbeat and lighthearted mood.

look of the day: Kate Beckinsale


Kate Beckinsale was dazzling at the People's Choice awards in a strapless deep wine colored J.Mendel (pre-fall 2009) gown.

her hair was flawlessly styled in a slick updo, and that, in my opinion, always looks great with a strapless dress. her makeup accentuated her eyes and beautiful, glowing skin. chandelier earrings and a couple of sparkling bangles completed the look.

amazing...

nail color of the week: Notorious by Jessica Cosmetics


i had to wear a dark color this week. i don't know what the urge was, but i needed to see my tips in a dark color. earlier this week, i told you about my shopping trip to Target, where i happened to pick up some nail color, and it turns out one of them was a dark shade from Jessica called Notorious.

i love this color-- a shimmery red-black shimmer that is similar to Sally Hansen's Glossy but instead takes on a more deep purple cast in dimmer lighting. the shimmer is very fine, so it's very pretty.

what do you think?
