New Collection: Bobbi Brown Mauve

Bobbi Brown's latest offering, the Mauve collection, was inspired by Ali MacGraw's iconic look in Love Story. Love means never having to say you're sorry, friends!These muted, dusty, vintage-inspired shades are perfect for early Fall. They make me think of riding bicycles on an overcast October day with fallen leaves swirling around. I can just hear the Love Story theme playing in the background.

Best of BECCA Palette

Longtime readers will know how much I love BECCA - I moped when Sephora stopped carrying the brand, rejoiced when they launched 2 palettes (Sateen and Velveteen) for the holiday season, and continue to shout from the mountaintops just how great the concealers are.And now, this fab new palette joins the collection. The Best of BECCA palette combines the three shade ranges that, in my opinion,

Spring Ahead: Bobbi Brown Pink Raspberry Palette

Ah, the spring collections are popping up everywhere! And I couldn't be happier...it's barely even January and winter has been bringing me down. Cold weather, grey skies, early sunsets, what a bummer. I think I might need to pick up one of those lightboxes that they use to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder.Or...I could just pick up this new palette from Bobbi Brown and fake spring...at least on

Limited Edition Alert: NARS for 3.1 Phillip Lim Palette

This is the best image I could find of the very, very limited edition NARS for 3.1 Phillip Lim palette. All About the Pretty has gotten her hands on one and has been raving about it on her site, so I had to investigate (and thanks to the reader who reminded me of this earlier this week!).You may be able to snap one up at Barneys, but since there were only 500 made, chances are they're already

Chocolate's Not Just for Dessert Anymore

Like it or not, Fall is approaching, and we're already getting a taste of the makeup that's going to be hot for the season.In addition to the berry lips and liquid liner that I've been fawning over, I'm loving rich neutrals for fall. A perfect example is the new Chocolate Eye Palette from Bobbi Brown (which Carla at Product Girl is loving, too). This palette is the eye makeup equivalent of a box

Doubting Palette

I take issue with palettes.They seem like such a great idea at the start - everything you need for the perfect face, all neatly organized with a little mirror. But then, after admiring this seemingly genius invention, you find yourself toting the whole thing around but only reaching for that one shadow, one shade of lip gloss, or the bronzer.Never, ever the whole shebang. There's always a flaw -
