Tha All New M∙A∙C in Lillyland Collection.

This new M∙A∙C in Lillyland Collection could not come at a better time in my life. I am heading to south Florida in a few weeks, and I am taking these beauties with me.

 
"When M∙A∙C meets the lore and legend that is Lilly Pulitzer, you get a fabulous and funky fun new chapter: a bit of Mar-a-Lago, some well-to-do winky-wink, and a dash of retro-modern pop culture mayhem in prints and colours that make it hip to be in permanent happy land! A collaboration that feels like the best tongue-in-chic resort retort, with all the wonderful prints and Key West colour combinations Lilly has done so beautifully since, well, forever! Fly down to South Florida, with M∙A∙C in Lillyland!"

Estée Lauder’s Blacker Than Black Collection.

If you've been by an Estée Lauder counter recently, you most likely noticed their newest collection, Blacker Than Black. This collection is bold and beautiful and made for the ultimate eye look.

The main feature of the line up is that they took it's most popular mascara formulas, and formulated each in a richer, more concentrated, more dramatic black shade. Couple that with the Signature Eyeshadow Quad and the Double Wear Stay-in-Place Eye Pencil and the look goes even further.

The mascaras included:

Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara - $19.50

This comes in Blacker Black and offers dramatic length and sensationally long wear in one effortless stroke and won’t budge, smudge, smear or flake for up to 15 hours.

Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara™ - $19.50
This comes in in Bold Black, to turn even your sparsest lashes into daringly full, lavishly lifted lashes without the clumping, spiking or weight normally associated with volumizing mascaras.

Projectionist High Definition Volume Mascara - $19.50
Available in Jet Black to envelop each individual lash with high volume and exceptionally sharp definition for a sleek, striking look.

TurboLash All Effects Motion Mascara* - $32.00
In Turbo Black, this one combines an innovative formula and brush design with a unique, power-performing, micro-pulsing effect that enables the brush to penetrate deep into the lash bed and comb through lashes more quickly and effectively, delivering all effects – volume, length, definition, separation and curl – in one tube.

MagnaScopic Maximum Volume Mascara - $21.00
Featured in Black, this mascara transforms lashes with dramatic volume, making them appear extravagantly full for a powerfully eye-opening effect.

More Than Mascara Moisture Binding Formula - $19.50
Available now in More Black, this features a moisture-binding formula that conditions lashes as it defines and separates them for a look that’s smoother, fuller and longer.

The Signature Eyeshadow Quad* contains four signature eyeshadow colors  in tones of gray. These shadows are so silky and apply with ease. I have been blending these shades for a soft, yet sultry smoky eye.

To complete the look, try the Double Wear Stay-in-Place Eye Pencil in Onyx. This pencil’s unique lightweight, creamy formula glides on effortlessly for rich, stay-true color that sets in seconds and wears for 12 hours.

Blacker Than Black is available for a limited time at Estée Lauder counters as well as online at EstéeLauder.com.
