My first introduction to Lola was when I was a mere babe and my parents had this monster cabinet. Inside the cabinet was an 8-Track Tape Player, yeah, my parents are obviously old and stuff, and a record player. On an old 45 (those are what smaller records were called way back in the time of dinosaurs) was Lola. She was a Show Girl.
No, but seriously, my first introduction to anything Lola was a Show Girl that Barry Manilow sung his little lungs out about. These things stick with you well into adulthood when you’re exposed to them as such a young age so now anytime I hear Lola I simply think of that tune and my foot starts tapping and I have a sudden urge to burst into song.
Now Marc Jacobs Lola has that Show Girl vibe with a big giant flower decking its bottle topper and I can’t help but thing of super fabulous Show Girls (not the washed up variety, promise!).
Promise not to babble your ear off with this one. Just wanted to show and tell you about the new limited edition shades of Maybelline Eye Studio Color Pearls Marbleized Eyeshadows.
They’ll come a day or days in your makeup life when you have to admit to yourself that it’s all about the packaging and the presentation, not necessarily the actual makeup. If you’re in denial about this fact, it’s ok, we’ve all been there.
In the case of Victoria’s Secret Midnight Glamour Luminous Highlighting Powder, it’s all about the packaging and presentation and sadly not so much about the actual makeup and lucky enough I’m not in denial about this.
Phew!
I’m willingly to admit the powder isn’t what caught my eye first nor will it be what holds my attention long after.
I’m pretty sure a bell rang, an angel got its wings, or a kitten got its whiskers because Holiday is now in full force courtesy of the Sephora Friends and Family Event. I swear this time of year totally launches me right into full force Holiday mode and now I’m bracing myself for the upcoming shopping trips ahead.
And to get us even more deeper into the festive good year, MAC will launch A Tartan Tale next week! Yes, it’s time now kids.
Are you full force holiday yet?
Well, let me aid your along if you aren’t with a look at the MAC A Tartan Tale Dashing Lassies Eye Shadow Palette.
The Estee Lauder Pure Color Extravagant by Creative Makeup Director Tom Pecheux proves that Estee Lauder is not your grandmother’s cosmetic company. This collection features some key pieces that will surely become must have items as soon as you see them for yourself particularly if you love cosmetics that give a timeless beauty option.
I’m more than thrilled about this exciting Holiday release because it truly brings elegant makeup to the table. If your a fond fan of brands such as Givenchy, Guerlain, etc…but aren’t a fan of the higher price tags, this collection is something you should take into consideration for your Holiday looks!
Lush’s most popular shampoo bar? I’d have to say Godiva. Everyone adores it, including my sister who stock piles it all crazy-like. I like Godiva but it isn’t a favorite of mine.
However, fans of the shampoo bar will be overjoyed that one of the newly launched Gorilla Perfume Fragrances is actually Godiva but renamed.
Ahhh we wait for this day every year don’t we? 364 days we groan in agony at paying full price for everything at Sephora but for several days out of the year we get to over indulge our make up sweet tooth and shop till we drop without paying full price!
Yes, Sephora Friends and Family 2010 has started and you can get 20% off every single item, no exclusions, on Sephora’s website.
Thank you makeup gods above!
But, of course, the question remains what are the best deals to get?
Take a look below to see some of the best options that’ll get you the best bang for your buck.
The new Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Holiday Collection 2010 has just launched. If you read a bit too many babblings on my site, you probably realize what a love/hate relationship I have with some of the Beauty Rush line but I never tire of seeing new offerings from the line, especially during the Holidays!
Meteorites, one of the makeup world’s greatest joys. Complimentary shades of color that chase away imperfections, refine the face, correct, and illuminate with a sweep of your brush.
This year, Guerlain offers a selection of it’s famous Meteorites dressed up for the Holidays in a jewel, metal case with an embossed golden bee.
Although we discussed and looked at some smaller photos of the new Hard Candy Winter Collection 2010, I thought you’d love to see the official information on the new products that will be available shortly at Walmart or in some cases may already be available at your local stores.
