Makeup, Skincare, Fragrance and a Bit of Fashion

I like the simple and elegant packaging of the new Mirage Eyes and Genteel Face from Elégance’s fall 2011 makeup collection. The details on the mirrors are a nice touch. Mirage eyes features some very wearable colors, and the warmer browns and the olive green have especially caught my attention.

10th: Sonia Rykiel

I do like a bit of color for fall (among all the neutrals and other muted shades), and Sonia Rykiel’s fall 2011 Sensual makeup collection is giving me that. The new Eyeshadow Duos include soft hues, vibrant colors, and sedate shades. The new shades/variations of Mousse Eyeshadow and Cheek Color Powder also inject some fresh colors into fall.

I have been interested in Addiction since its launch in fall 2009, but, product-wise, the new Cheek Stick from the brand’s summer 2011 makeup collection has caught my eye the most. Designed mainly as blushers, the eight available shades can also be used as eyeshadows and lipsticks. (Some of them can also be used for highlighting and contouring.)

I like the eye-catching Multico Eyeshadow palettes from Sonia Rykiel’s summer 2011 makeup collection. They are not the tone-on-tone eyeshadow palettes that we see a lot of from Japanese lines, but the colors are very well-coordinated. They are colorful but relatively wearable. My favorite one is, of course, the one with purple, pink, and golden beige.

10th: Dior

Unlike Dior’s spring 2011 makeup collection, in which many of the items are too grey-toned for me, Dior’s summer 2011 Electric Tropics makeup collection is a lot more wearable for me. 5-Colour Eyeshadow in 534 Rosy Nude, the lighter of the two new palettes, is particularly appealing to me.

Magie Deco’s spring 2011 Sugar Magic makeup collection features light lilacs and neutrals with a touch of green. The color combinations of Magie Deco’s eyeshadow palettes are usually slightly more unusual and unpredictable (see Magie Deco’s fall 2009 makeup collection), but the wearability of this collection and the soft looks that it can create are certainly appealing to me.

THREE’s spring 2011 makeup collection features the brand’s first range of eyeshadow palettes, 4D Eye Palette. I like the interesting color combinations of neutral shades and a pop of color. These items continue to give the brand a distinctive look.

Another season, another pink collection from Jill Stuart. Not surprisingly, the new Blush Blossom, launched in fall 2010, has proven to be a popular product, and there is one new color variation this season. Lip Luster was re-packaged to become Lip Jewel, which looks even prettier.

Since Magie Deco was launched in fall 2007, it has been releasing lovely makeup coffrets for the holiday seasons. This year, Magie Deco Coffret IV includes a beautiful eyeshadow palette, with plum, light dusky pink, and light cool lilac. I like the eye palette for holiday 2009, but I think this year’s is even prettier.
(See the 2007 coffret here and the 2008 one here, and have a look at photos of the 2010 coffret on Autumn Masquerade.)

Maquillage’s holiday 2010 makeup collection celebrates the line’s 5th anniversary. The Powder Celebration set includes a 7-shade loose powder (pictured above and below) and a pressed powder. The loose powder is certainly a one-off creation that we don’t see every year.
