Prevage Clarity 300 dpi 10.14.10 705x1024 Elizabeth Ardens upcoming PREVAGE Clarity

This month, Elizabeth Arden is expanding their PREVAGE® line with the addition of their “PREVAGE® Clarity Targeted Skin Tone Corrector”. This corrector “minimizes the appearance of those all too visible aging signs – existing age spots, dark spots, freckles and discolorations” with “its unique combination of Idebenone– one of the most powerful antioxidants on the market– and Soy Ferulate-C (a complex that helps protect skin from environmental assaults that can lead to pigmentation irregularities and is enriched with Vitamin C for a more brightened, even look).”

They say, “PREVAGE® Clarity significantly minimizes the appearance of existing dark spots and pigmentation irregularities and improves skin tone and clarity, giving the skin a smoother appearance and more youthful glow. Test results show that over 80% of women saw a reduction in dark spots and discolorations after 12 weeks of using the product!”

Interested to see if you will see the same results? Fair warning – like the rest of the PREVAGE® line, you will def need to count your pennies to get this. You can pick up at 1.0 fl. oz. bottle for $125.00 online now.

Lady Gaga For MAC Viva Glam 2011

Guys, I was just sent over the most unexpected, softly beautiful picture this morning.

c79909b03c74156e VivaGlam Beauty 72.preview Lady Gaga For MAC Viva Glam 2011

This is the just released promo picture of Lady Gaga as MAC Cosmetics Viva Glam spokesperson for 2011. Here’s what WWD had to say:

MAC Cosmetics has signed Lady Gaga on for a second year as the spokeswoman for its Viva Glam campaign. Gaga teamed up with Cyndi Lauper for the 2010 campaign, which launched earlier this year. The company said the Gaga-Lauper campaign was the most successful ever for the MAC AIDS Fund, which has raised more than $190 million for the cause since its founding in 1994. For her solo turn in 2011, Gaga was shot by Nick Knight and styled by Nicola Formichetti.

I can’t wait to see the new color for next year – it definitely looks tamer than what I would normally expect from the lovely Lady Gaga.

What do you think? Do you think that MAC made the right choice for their campaign for next year? Or do you wish they had chosen a new face?

Clarins goes for Barocco for the Holidays

Clarins knows that the Holidays is the time of year for luxury and extravagance. This holiday season they are giving us a glimpse into the “dramatic, daring and sensual style of the baroque period” with their “Barocco Holiday Colour Collection”.

 Clarins goes for Barocco for the Holidays

This limited-edition collection includes 4 pieces in packaging that is described as “a precious, jewel-like decoration inspired by the delicate work of a goldsmith”. (*Check out that pretty glossy white gold case on the eyeshadows over there.) The pieces are:

  • Barocco Face Palette: A soft, light compact powder with a scroll motif in peachy-pink and sandy-beige. The combination of the two shades is perfect for illuminating the face or adding matte touches to the complexion. ($55USD)
  • Barocco Shimmering Gold Powder for Face and Décolleté: An elegant black and gold powder box holds little nuggets dusted with golden pearl. With a sweep of the puff, they release a fine powder to beautifully enhance the skin with sparkling reflections. ($35USD)
  •  Clarins goes for Barocco for the Holidays

  • Barocco Eye Colour Trio: A trio of shades that create the perfect smoky eye for day and night with these ultra-fine textures that can be combined, layered or blended together for perfect holiday makeup. Create a wash of bronze to enhance the eyes, black to define the eyelids and gold to catch the light and brighten the inner corners. ($40USD)
  •  Clarins goes for Barocco for the Holidays

  • Barocco Rouge Prodige: The purple velvet drapes of the Baroque period are the inspiration for the colour of this lipstick. The rich formula combines long-hold colour, extreme shine and total comfort. ($24USD) (*I almost think I could pull this berry-ish red off.)

Does any of this decadence tempt you? Lemme know if you pick any (all?) of these pieces up.

*Disclaimer: I received the eyeshadows in a giveaway goodie bag from BeautyBlitz.
