Musings of a Muse

Yes Style is stocking the Anna Sui Holiday Makeup Coffrets this year. The coffrets are $70 each which isn’t too bad a mark up from their retail plus you get free shipping.

Here’s a lookiee!

Yay! The Lush Limited Edition Perfume Collection has launched in NA. The original launch was last month in the UK during a forum party. I quickly ordered my goodies and got them a few days ago. Day of the Dead Perfume is rockin’ dude, just rockin’!

The good news is the range is now available, for one day only, from 10AM to Midnight (PST). Each fragrance is $29.95 and available in the following scents:

• American Cream – Lavender and vanilla shake with a hint of fresh fruitiness.
• Snowcake – Almond marzipan and rose absolute for sophisticated sweetness.
• Twilight – Find serenity in lavender and tonka absolute.
• Big – Tropical mandarin and vanilla perfume for breezy, beachy days.
• Black Pearl – Sail the high seas of lavender and blackcurrant.
• Day of the Dead – Zesty lime fragrance inspired by a Mexican fiesta for the dead.

Lush does not have an exact delivery date for perfumes but promises they’ll arrive prior to Christmas so if you’re wanting them as a gift, according to Lush, they should arrive right on time.

Happy Shoppin’!

I’ve already checked out and reviewed Day of the Dead if it’s any help when deciding which scents you need.

Guerlain Spring 2010 brought us visions of Cherry Blossoms. The collection was feminine, flirty, and pink! Images of Spring 2011 are popping up on quite a few European websites and this year it doesn’t quite capture the Spring vibe it did last year. Guerlain goes a bit more traditional this year with a resort-y type Spring Collection. It’s not uncommon for brands to do bronze, resort-like shades and collections for Spring as we are still deep in Winter when they release these items and I guess they feel like people are gearing up for warmer weather or a mid-Winter break to some fabulous Island. Whatever the case may be Guerlain captures some of that vibe with Spring 2011.

Let’s have a glance at the images.

Sleek Makeup has a blusher available for as little as $8 which resembles NARS somewhat in terms of packaging and pigmentation. If you’re on the hunt for a budget blush that’s super pigmented this could be the answer to your makeup prayers.

L’Oreal has a new Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara out. I’m a fan of the original and first Double Extend Mascara they introduced so I thought I’d give their Illuminator version a try out to see what the scoop was. This isn’t new by any means as Covergirl has that Eyebright range as does Almay but it is delivered in a different application method which could appeal to fans of Givenchy Phenomen’Eyes Mascara and Telescopic Explosion Mascara.
