As February comes to a close the luster and promise of NYE resolutions are beginning to dim… However, the light at the end of the tunnel, ladies, is the promise of everlasting beauty; my favourite makeup collections come out this time of year usually inspired by European runways. Here are my favourite new season colour launches.
Yves Saint Laurent Spring Look 2013
Looking back on your Valentine’s day this week, it may have taken hours, even days, to come up with a suitably seductive makeup look to woo your significant other – but it doesn’t have to be once a year! The YSL Spring Look 2013 makes the multifaceted seductress look super easy and just as effortless. We love the gems of mineral and crystalline colours inspiring its flirty palette. While the sun is still fairly steamy go for the limited edition Eye Collector Palette and get them under your spell with a wink of a smoky azurite eye.
RRP: $44 – $90 on counter 3rd March available at Myer and David Jones department stores and Mecca Maxima.
Guerlain Spring Look 2013
Get smouldering eyes everyday like the Russian beauty, Natalia Vodianova with the alluring spring makeup look from Guerlain, featuring the Cils d’Enfer Mascara with the supermodel at the helm. From cat eyes to baby-doll eyes to doe eyes, ensure striking allure with the two tried and tested hues of black and violet. Max volume, curls and hold plus the re-invented shape of the wand is your new formula for instant sexy.
RRP: $55 available from MYER, David jones and selected independent stockist
Chanel Cruise Collection 2012-13
From the flamboyant Chanel Beauty Cruise Collection 2012-13 came an infusion of Baroque, femininity and a touch of punk with a wash of pink and coral shades from the shadow to the blusher and glossy pink lips. Fun and very French, we love the ‘Marie Antoinette on acid’ beauty look and as the sun sets on summer there’s still time for a summer fling with the Ombre Essentielle Soft-Touch Eyeshadow in ‘Rose Favorite’.
Available from Chanel Fragrance & Beauty boutiques and the Chanel Makeup Studio, Myer Sydney City.
