Slackety slacker. I have been slacking on my year of beauty....October brought some lovely lovelies to the collection....
Before I even begin I must say how much I love the black and gold Dior packaging for holiday and the too cute BE hatbox!
Every holiday season Bare Escentuals comes out with a TSV for QVC, this year's is The Perfect Gift and I am just in love with it....The Crème de la Crème shadow is a glowing color that has a greenish cast, it is just beautiful, the Magnifique shadow is a lovely plummy shadow that does not give me the bruised eye look at all. The Avant-Garden blush is pinkish apricot like color on me. The new lip product is called Pretty Amazing and the color is Rouge, it is a lipstick/lipgloss hybrid that is lovely to wear as well as a just a lovely compliment to the eyes and cheeks. The kit also comes with a mascara, an eyeliner in Black Coffee which is awesome and a tinted hydrating mineral veil. There will be 3 more seasonal color collections in this series. I always sign up for auto-delivery of the BE holiday collection and then always cancel, however if they all come with adorable hatboxes I may just stay in.
The Beast had a soccer game over the Skyway so of course I had to visit the CCO. The only thing that caught my eye was the Shell Pearl beauty powder from the Liberty collection, I really am happy I got it, it really is a lovely golden peach pink powder.
I went to check My Highland Honey at Dillard's but when I saw they still had the Oh So Fair beauty powder I had to get it not so much for the powder but for the awesome compact!
I was so happy to see C. at the Dior counter too as I had been wanting a lipcolor to go with the lovely, lovely 5 Golds eye quint. I knew as soon as I saw the promo pictures that I would be in love with that quint! I had not been happy with any of the lipcolors I had tried with the 5 Golds and C. suggested Bronze Zerline. It looks amazing with the shadows! C. also said to apply a bit of the Amber Diamond highlight powder on top of the Bronze Zerline then top it all with a shimmering golden gloss to take the lips to a whole new level of awesome loveliness. She applied it all to me and it was (and is) lovely...
Finally the Pink/Gold Minaudiere from Dior, Sephora had it online for Friends and Family and with giftcard I had been saving from my birthday it was practically free! I love the colors, the protective flap over the glosses, and mostly just the way it looks....
All in all October brought some lovelies and heralded what I hope to be an awesomely lovely Holiday Season!
