I really love the look of these new YVES SAINT LAURENT Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain Lip Stains that are already available at Selfridges and retail for £22.50.
These look like a perfect lip product for the holidays! There are twenty shades to choose from which is a lot actually.
And, of course, I love Ginta Lapina on the promo photo.
Below you can see shades 18, 13 and 8 as an example of shades variations! Can’t wait to see them in person…
Read MoreThis holiday Hourglass’ Artistic Director Gina Brooke suggests that we try two looks that she created with Hourglass Cosmetics.

Here is what she says herself:
“The holidays are the perfect time to explore a more refined and layered look. Think rich jewel tones, luminous skin and decadent glamour. I always prime first with Veil Mineral Primer and follow with Illusion Tinted Moisturizer for a glowing complexion. They’re the fundamental steps for looking elegant.”
ETHEREAL BEAUTY
“A vibrant olive shadow really pops—especially if you foil the color,” says Brooke, who suggests using Visionaire Eye Shadow Duo in Dune. Using a shadow brush, apply the champagne shade first. Use your finger to blend for a graduation of color. Then apply the green shimmer shade. To heighten the impact of the shade, wet your brush before application but make sure to let the shadow dry before moving on to another shade.
Pair your statement eyes with Illume Crème-to-Powder Bronzer Duo in Bronze Light applied to the cheeks. Focus on the highlighter shade in the duo.
Finish up with Extreme Sheen Lip Gloss in Fortune (metallic pink shimmer).
SUPER VAMP
Read MoreI really loved Chanel’s Paris-Bombay Métiers d’Art collection inspired by India. I actually really liked the clothes, accessories and makeup.
And here is what Peter Philips says about the makeup:
“We wanted to create an almond-shaped black kohl eye – a graphic interpretation of an iconic Indian beauty idea. I kept the focus on the eyes, and achieved a matte pitch black make-up result by using a new shade of Illusion d’Ombre called Nirvana. I used Le Crayon Khôl in Black for the eyes and Mascara Inimitable Intense in Black on the lashes.”
So the new products are:
Read MoreI have written about two Hourglass lip gloss sets already but I just found out that there is one more!
And it’s the most gorgeous one. It contains three exclusive Limited Edition shades but of course (insert sad face here), it’s available only in the US, at Barneys.
The price is $45.
The shades are extremely pretty. I really wish they’d release this set in Europe as well…
Holiday makeup collection by Dolce & Gabbana looks like a perfect choice for the holidays gift! It is called The Ruby Collection and each item has a ‘ruby’ on top on the packaging.
I personally think this is a great present for someone who loves luxury makeup and beauty.
You can get:
- Ruby Collection Eyeshadow in Femme Fatale 100, £48/$75
- Ruby Collection Luminous
