Just a quick look around the worlds of makeup and beauty today…
- Nordstrom’s got the new Shu Uemura Egerie Spring 2010 collection online! Right off the bat I can say that I REALLY like the way Shu’s packaging the Satin Glow Radiant Stick Blush, Radiant Stick Highlighter, Eye Shimmer Duo, Black Leather falsies and Black Leather Nail Enamel. That’s just hawt!
- Yup, and it’s brown for spring with Laura Mercier’s Polished collection…
- The new Gentle Beauty Soap by Clarins clocks in at 99% natural.
- Free shipping on all purchases at Lancome.com through January 17.
- I’m diggin’ the neutrals in Giorgio Armani’s Nude Contrasts Palette for eyes.
- J’adore me some Dior… and I have a feeling I’m going to love the new J’adore eau de toilette.
- CUTE! Check out everything you get in Senna Cosmetics’ new Contouring Colorbook.
- Vera Wang’s latest scent, codenamed Glam Princess, with guava, pear, honey, orchid, marshmallow and cedarwood, belongs on some kind of tropical camping trip, LOL!
- Zoya Spring 2010 goes all Terminator metallic with the Reverie collection.
- T3 has a new dry shampoo; fellow lazy women of the world, rejoice!
- OOH! Lottsa golds, greens and bronzes for warm-toned lovelies with the Korres Golden Goddess collection!
- The CLARO Acne Clearing Device treats acne with *intense* pulses of light.
- Kenzo went all Hollywood to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Flower by Kenzo.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

January 12th, 2010 at 5:40 pmThe Shu packaging is absolutely gorgeous! I’m a little sad there aren’t more items that I would normally be interested in.. I haven’t quite jumped on the stick cream products bandwagon yet though I do have to say the eye shimmer duo fascinates me. But the lazy in me says that’d be a little too much work?

January 13th, 2010 at 7:44 pmNah! I think they’re much easier to use. Just apply with and blend with fingers! That’s it. 🙂

January 12th, 2010 at 6:15 pmLove the Shu packaging! The stick highlighter and blush look pretty. I wonder if sephora will carry these goodies?
Karen says
January 13th, 2010 at 7:45 pmI hope so! They usually have some of the collection stuff online… but at my local store the only Shu thing they have is the curler, boo.
I am drooling over both the highlighting stick and blush!

January 12th, 2010 at 6:35 pmI can’t wait to check out the Shu Uemura collection at Holt Renfrew. I am loving the Black Leather nailpolish already!

January 12th, 2010 at 7:46 pmGirl, I have to know… where do you keep all your makeup?! You must have buckets!
Oh, btw, I finally bought the Clinque Take The Day Off, and so far so good! Does a pretty good job of getting my DiorShow off, although I really hope it doesn’t make me start breaking out.
J’Adore is my scent, so I can’t wait to test the new one!

January 13th, 2010 at 9:22 pmI use cheap clear plastic shoe holder thingys:

I’m a little OCD, so I start by separating by brand into different shoe boxes. Within each brand I’ll either separate items into Ziplocs either by collection (with a note of the collection name, season and year) or product (eyeshadows, lipsticks, etc.).
Glad to hear you’re liking Take the Day Off! Will keep my fingers crossed that it doesn’t break you out. I have sensitive skin, too, and so far it’s been a-ok.

January 13th, 2010 at 5:12 amBecause I am a packaging fiend, the Shu look is very exciting to me. I just hope the products are great too …. 🙂
Karen says
January 13th, 2010 at 9:25 pmShu has a lot of fantastic stuff — I love their eyeshadows, especially. I’m very stoked for the Eye Shimmer.
Hope you had a nice day… say hi to the furbabies for me!
