Heya, girls. If you’re in the middle of planning your spring makeup wardrobe, you might want to squirrel a penny or two (or 10,000) away for Dolce and Gabbana‘s newest makeup range, The Intimate Sensuality Collection.
If you like roses, flowers and all things femme, this line of luxury makeup could put a dent in your pocketbook. Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana drew the color palette’s inspiration from Sicily’s wild roses and the lush, floral prints in their spring 2010 runway collection. Expect to see the 14-piece release for eyes, lips, face and nails at Dolce and Gabbana makeup counters in March.
Take a look at the pictures below, check out the full collection list and let me know if anything catches your eye. 🙂

Okay… This is going to sound terrible, but…those colors don’t seem very…youthful.
That’s the best way I could say it tactfully. I’ve actually never tried D&G makeup before. I bet it goes on well at least.

Karen says
Really? I am kinda feeling the purples and pinks, but then again I’m a sucker for those colors. Happy Friday!
Christina says
Uh… what *doesn’t* catch my eye?! Those are gorgeous… Can’t wait to see some swatches!
Yes, that might’ve been a hint. 😉
Karen says
LOL, I’ll see what I can do, girlfriend. 🙂
Karen B says
The only thing I don’t like is the Glam lipstick (that would be WAY too goth on me). The others are just gorgeous!
Karen says
Ya know, in the right context you could probably pull off Glam… maybe if you were doing a ’90s look!
Karen B says
Well, I’m trying not to go there at the moment… haha
Trisha - Makeup Files says
I think, upon further inspection, that my problem might be the packaging. If I focus my eyes on just the makeup, the colors look good.
It’s just all that shiny gold! 🙂

Karen says
The gold is one of those things you either love or hate, methinks. I kinda dig it…
Tavia says
I like the color quad in Petal and the Lipgloss …..ups…did I mention I’m Scarlett biggest fan? 🙂

Karen says
I love her too! She’s so beautiful, and I love that she has curves!
Smiley says
Ooh totally luxe. I wish they would photograph their products like Chanel does. That would be even more amazing!
.-= Smiley’s last blog post… CARGO ON SALE!! =-.
Karen says
That would be the ultimate temptation!
Marina says
I love the idea with lipstick promo photos. I don’t have anything from D&G makeup yet. I don’t know why. Maybe because I spend way too much on other brands 🙂
Have a great Friday 😉

You have a wonderful weekend, Marina!
Aleksis says
I LOVE the look of this! I love my nudes and that nude eyeliner will be mine! The purple and brown eyeshadow duo also look gorgeous. Do you have any idea what lipstick shade scarjo is wearing?

Karen says
I don’t… but truth be told, the woman could have any color on her lips and make it look hot, LOL!
Lisa S. says
Love the quad in Petal and the lipsticks in Glam and Petal.
Also is it just me, or do we seem to referencing the last few decades with some of the collections I’m seeing lately? I mean MACS All Ages etc. line reminds me of the 90’s. This one reminds me of the 80’s a bit. Not the Glam lipstick though. Although I had a revlon (I think it was revlon) lipstick in the 80’s that was an awesome greyish purple color that I lurrrvvved. The lipstick reminds me of the early 2000’s when we all woke up and realised that lip and nail color could be crazy colored and dangerous.
Lisa S. says
No the awesome lipstick wasn’t Revlon, it was a Loreal Lipstick and it was the best color. Dang! I wish I could remember the name……..
Oh and too there was the Covergirl collection of eyeshadows that I bought in every color. The green quad had gold glitter, the amethyst had silver, the blue had silver and the brown had gold. Oooo this whole thing has led me on a trip down makeup memory lane…………
Karen says
Oh, yes! I’ve definitely been getting a ’90s vibe from all the browns in the spring collections! 🙂
Khalia Bentson says
I personally agree with Trisha that the colors don’t look very “youthful” but for me that’s a huge part of it’s appeal! I think they look a bit more mature and sophisticated where lately I feel I’m being inundated with an array of candy kind of colors that really don’t appeal to me. For the color choices, I would swoop up this collection in a heartbeat but I am way more of a budget beauty kind of girl and I just couldn’t justify the prices. Those shadows better last me the rest of 2010 for $59!!!
.-= Khalia Bentson’s last blog post… TGIF!!!! =-.
Karen says
Hi Khalia! I could totally see both the Glam and Precious lipsticks looking hot on you!
Vanessa H says
The Petal eye quad and lipstick are calling me, what lovely pictures!
1 hr and 28 minutes until I clock out and my weekend starts!

Nice! My countdown is on too… although I’ve been fooling around for the last hour, ha ha!
mill says
the packaging (yes, im a packaging junkie) all but does it for me. creamy texture and silky eyeshadows are a bonus!
amy says
I love the packaging for DG makeup! The purple eyeshadow quad is pretty but not exciting enough for me to get.

Kypris says
I love roses, and those nail lacquers look like just my colours…
Nicole says
I love your blog! I came across it a while ago, and it’s just wonderful! Yesterday, I just finished talking myself out of buying some D&G cosmetics from Saks.com, since I am no where near a counter and swatches are hard to find online, and shipping to Canada is pretty ridiculous. I told myself, “Wait until you go to Italy!! It will more fun that way!” But that is probably a year away, and this collection looks so pretty! The eyeshadow quad!
diane says
God, they are so pretty! Love this kind of colors 🙂
Thanks for sharing
kiss

Katie says
I love this collection! Did you notice Mystery eyeshadow duo looks exactly like NARS Jezebel duo? 🙂
The Crochet Queenn says
I have Petal Eye Colour Quad and Caramel lip gloss and I luv them!
Mystery looks so much better in person.
