Bobbi Brown for Fall - The Mauve Collection.

Bobbi's inspiration for her beautiful new Fall Collection:

“These shades were inspired by the covers of beautiful vintage books. Infused with hints of purple, grey and brown, mauve makeup is a cool neutral that’s very wearable.”

 

The new Mauve collection is gorgeous. Of course, the star product of the new line-up is the Mauve Face Palette. On counters today, the palette contains three Eye Shadows, one Blush, a Creamy Lip Color, a Lip Sheer and a Lip Color. The shades are all new, exclusives, only to the palette:  Navajo Eye Shadow, Vintage Eye Shadow, Chocolate Mauve Eye Shadow, Mauve Blush, Dusty Mauve Creamy Lip Color, Mauve Lip Sheer and Vintage Mauve Lip Color.

 

The rest of the Bobbi Brown Fall Mauve Collection:
Lip Color - Heather Mauve and Pale Mauve
Shimmer Lip Gloss - Black Pearl and Iced Mauve
Lip Gloss - Mauve
Long-Wear Gel Eye Liner - Black Mauve Shimmer Ink
Mini Brush Set - a must-have to apply the Face Palette products, the case includes blush, shadow and liner brushes

Though only July 1st and I am getting my Summer makeup routine down, I cannot wait to play with all the new Fall shades. These look especially beautiful. I am not so much of a purple person (it looks so wrong on me), but being more muted with gray and taupe, I am sure I can wear this collection well.
 

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Beauty Exclusives.

I can't believe that is time for Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale Beauty Exclusives already. It seems like just yesterday that I gushed about what I wanted from the exclusive sale last Summer. Anyway, it is here again and start saving or shopping now. Pre-orders for these beauties are being accepted now.

Really - July 18th through August 3rd, shoppers nationwide will rise with the sun and rush to their nearest Nordstrom.  What is the best way to guarantee a successful shopping mission and get the beauties you desire?  The answer, like I said, is to pre-order.

There are more than five pages with great exclusive products, specials sizes and sets available. There is so much to love, but I really have my eye on a few select items.

First the MAC Colour Forms collection. I am not exactly sure which pieces that I will scoop up yet, but I have my eye on more than a few things from the annual addition exclusive to Nordstrom: 

 

Plus I am sure that I will need this Cocoa Mauve Collection from Bobbi Brown:

And I am longing for this beautiful Lancôme palette, the Color Design Beauty Icon Warm Eye & Cheek Palette:

When I get more time I will be looking a bit closer at more of the exclusives, and I will let you know even more of my selections. What are you longing for?

Bobbi Brown Bronzed Pink Look.

If I had to describe my favorite Summer look this would be it. I think Bobbi knows me - all too well in fact. Um, except for the fact that I would probably go a bit heavier on the eyeliner - but that is just me.

 

The Bronzed Pink Look from Bobbi Brown just launched and it is screaming perfect Summer look. For day or night, dressed up or down, this is the ultimate, isn't it? 

I know I will be picking up both of the new Metallic Eye Shadow's in Bronzed Pink and Penny - the colors are exactly what I am looking for. I love her Metallic shadows, do you remember the palettes she launched last year? I still use my Burnt Sugar Metallics palette at least once or twice during the week. The shadows are Metallic looking, not too frosty or overdone, and perfect for a woman of any age.

I am craving one of the Bronzers too. I do not have a Bobbi counter that close to me - a shame, I know - but I will be in Boston for a few days next week and I will be on the hunt for the closest counter to select the perfect one. The bronzer comes in five shades, and it really is hard to tell which one would compliment my faux tan; Light, Medium, Natural, Dark or Deep. I will let you know which one I end up with.

The Bronzed Pink Look also includes Tinted Lip Balm in Desert Bronze, Bronzed Pink and Golden Pink.

I love the look of the Golden Pink and the shade used on the model above is Desert Bronze, and I am really liking the overall look, so I will probably pick that up too. Ugh - who I am kidding, I am sure each one of these shaded will make it home with me.

Let me know if you already have any of the Bronzed Pink products yet or which ones you will be picking up.
