This collection comes out tomorrow, Sept 15th in the US and Canada and in October internationally. It is already being sold online at maccosmetics.com as well as other online retailers, such as Nordstrom.
This is a limited edition collection featuring some classic items, paint pots and mattene lipsticks. Needless to say, I will be ALL OVER this collection! I love the versatility of the paintpots to be used as an eyeshadow base or as a cream eyeshadow. I have one or two of the original Mattene lipsticks, so that I am anxious to see what this new batch has to offer.
Karen’s Body Beautiful and upcoming online community Tribe Called Curl are holding a natural hair model search.

The prequel to New York Fashion Week is here and it starts tomorrow. Not only is it in NYC, but it has expanded to cities across the U.S. and around the world. On September 8th, the fashion and beauty world is going to go mad with lots of limited edition items, parties, special FNO-exclusive events and general revalry!
I am just planning my list of places to hit (shame, I know!), and the FNO website has a pretty cool feature where you can map out your route through the streets of New York.
For more information, including events in places outside of the U.S., check out the FNO website, or follow the hastag #FNO on twitter. Oh, they also have apps for iPhone and Android phones.

I definitely want to check out NARS to see the limited-edition FNO collection.
So last year M.A.C. held a competition to give 6 fanatics a chance at a makeover and to the the faces of one of their fall campaigns. I entered. I didn’t win 🙁 But here is the collection. I’m glad M.A.C. chose 6 very different people, including a dude! And the lady with the silvery hair, fierce!!!!!

NARS revamps its concealer line and adds some new shades to the darker end of the spectrum. Take a look!
NARS Concealer boasts a lightweight, creamy texture enriched with Vitamin E for crease-resistant coverage that stays in place all day. Aside from new slim packaging, the formula will grow its shade range from a total of six shades to ten to help achieve a NARS Immaculate Complexion. Whether applied to camouflage darkness under the eyes or to reduce the appearance of redness and skin imperfections, the new range reaches a broader scope of skintones and is targeted to more closely match NARS’ Sheer Matte & Sheer Glow Foundation shades. Apply with a brush for even application and precise spot coverage.
