New in Beauty, Feb. 11: Laura Mercier Polishes a New Palette, and China Glaze’s Great Rainbow of Hope

February 11th, 2010 by Karen 10 Comments

New in Beauty

  • Neutral lovahs, Laura Mercier’s Polished Palette ($55) has you covered.
  • AWESOMENESS! Proceeds from the sale of the China Glaze Rainbow of Hope collection go to support cancer research.
  • DuWop says their Plumping Paste ($18) is like a face masque for your lips.
  • Speaking of lips, have you tried Stiff Upper Lip by Bliss ($38)?
  • My nose knows it wants to sniff BVLGARI BLV II ($48) and Marc Jacobs Daisy in the Air ($57).
  • The Sephora Poppy Ring Atomizer ($12): cute OR cheesy?
  • Ooh… A makeup primer spray by Josie Maran ($36)? You now have my undivided attention.
  • The pimples on my chin are telling me I need to start carrying the Bremenn Emergency Zit Stick ($21) in my purse, LOL!
  • Smashbox claims their Halo Hydrating Perfecting Bronzer ($39) imparts a sun-kissed glow while dramatically minimizing the signs of aging.
  • I’m convinced the Boots No. 7 Lip Glace Colour Collection looks more LUXE than it should be for $15! 🙂

Watching a master at work… Chanel Beauty Artistic Director Peter Philips

Isn’t it fun to watch how people who are great at something do what they do?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Watching Peter Philips at work is amazing! He makes making up the models look so effortless! I really enjoyed watching these videos (only wish I could speak french so I knew what they were saying!). I loved the old product containers and advertisements, those ads looked like they were from the 20’s, I would love some of those framed and on my wall!

    I have decided what my dream job would be, product tester for Chanel, to be able to get my hands on the nail varnishes and the glosses before anyone else would be amazing!

    Seeing the images for the Alexanfer McQueen show really tugged at my heartstrings, such a loss of talent for the fashion world. RIP Alexander McQueen.

    Love the palette, I think the Poppy ring thing is adorable and NOT CHEESY! Also I got all excited at the Boots palette thing, until I realised If I never bought another lip gloss I’d still have a 10 year supply.

    By the way I’m wearing Elf mineral lip stick in “Nicely Nude” with MAC “Valentine’s” lip gelee over the top. I only say this to illustrate that I am not a make-up snob as my DH called me earlier (don’t ask) ;0) The Elf cost 3 bucks and the MAC cost me 10 at CC. So Thppppbbbt. (that last was for the hub unit who’s reading over my shoulder.)

    At first I was so sad when I realised the majority of the dialogue in the videos was in French, but that drumline beat whenever someone was introduced was totally worth it!! I just recreated the look Peter taught. SImple, classic, clean.

    I LOVE Bulgari Aquamarine. Yeah, it’s a men’s cologne but it is just fab. I can’t pass a fragrance counter without giving it a sniff.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
