Well, hello again, bronze goddesses. For the forth straight year in a row, Estee Lauder’s doing a — wait for it! — Bronze Goddess-themed collection for summer.
This year’s promotional pictures gave me some serious de ja vu. Doesn’t the Bronze Goddess Island Oasis Eyeshadow Palette ($42) look similar to 2009’s Sand & Sea Eyeshadow Palette?
I was hoping they’d bring back 2010’s Bronze Goddess Liquid Eyeshadows (that teal was so killer!), but it looks like they’ve replaced them with two new ShadowStick Duos ($20 each).
What I’m really looking forward to is the new Bronze Goddess Soleil Eau Fraiche ($55). I wear the Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche Skin Scent from 2008 all the time, even in the dead of winter, because it reminds me of going to the beach.
Anywho, take a look at the promotional pictures and the collection listing below let me know if you see anything you like.

February 8th, 2011 at 9:18 amThanks sooo much for the info!!! Can’t wait for summer already!! What I didn’t understand is will they release a regular Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche and a a new Soleil one, or only the Soleil?

February 8th, 2011 at 11:31 amTheir summer Bronze Goddess collections always look lovely but since I don’t tan the colours never work for me. I do love the original fragrance though and am curious to smell this new one

I recognize Tiramisu – it’s a repromote from a couple years ago, and it’s a great neutral. The rest looks too warm-toned for me, versus last year’s Summer Bronze collection with thode gorgeous teal and purple liquid shadows. Still, it all looks very pretty and is getting me excited for my trip to Miami next week!

February 8th, 2011 at 1:00 pmI lurve the eye palette for this year. The addition of the greenish shade is what makes it for me. Think I’m going to put this on my birthday list.

When it will be in store in Europe??
Karen says
February 9th, 2011 at 9:32 amHi Jessica,
I know here in the US the launch date is set for March; it should probably filter into the European counters shortly afterward. EL tends to do summer early so you won’t have to wait too long.

March 24th, 2011 at 10:05 amThis looks like such a beautiful array of colors for summer. I am very interested in the eye shadow palette. Has anyone had the chance to try it? Sometimes the colors are very different in person, but they sure look pretty. The star fish is so gorgeous, it would be a shame to use it.
