Definitely not a great purchase. One can purchase a similar type liner (glittery, long wear/waterproof) from Gosh, Stila, Make Up For Ever, or Lise Watier for a better cost and probably better performance. The problem with the Lancome Beach Gem liner is that it bleeds every time I apply it to my eye, so this will be a return, sadly because this was the piece I was most excited about from the Bronze Azure launch. *Sniffles* I didn't include photos so one can take my word for it.
In other exciting news, I saw some photos for the Clarins "Fall" and Holiday launch! The holiday launch seems to be a promising launch! Hopefully the promo photos that they do for the holiday line will actually feature only products exclusive to the launch. Last year (2010), the model was wearing the eyeshadow trio and face powder, but was not wearing the lipstick (Borroco), she was wearing another lipstick from the regular line. What is THAT? Oh, Clarins isn't the only one guilty of this faux pas- CoverGirl has done it (when just launching lip perfection lipsticks in Canada- "burn"was not in the prelaunch) and for Fall 2010, the Blue Dahlia Collection from Estee Lauder, Hilary was not wearing a lip color featured in the limited edition launch. Seriously? There were 3 pure color gloss sticks and 3 glosses (maybe more, maybe less, I cannot recall)- ALL *GORGEOUS*- it was inconceivable to feature one of the limited edition lippies??
that's the beauty post for the day....
and Smashbox Softbox palette should be landing anytime now....!
