Coming Soon: Lipstick Queen Holiday 2007

Limited Edition Lipstick Queen Purse Holiday 2007Poppy King of Lipstick Queen fame has collaborated with Katherine Kin (a former pattern maker for Alice Roy) to create this gorgeous red Poppy Purse.  Inside of the clutch, which will retail for $75 at Barneys, a Saint Red and Saint Sinner lipstick will reside– the perfect lipsticks to wear this holiday season!

The Poppy Purse is limited edition, and I mean exclusive with a capital "E".  Only 100 have been created, so if you’re one of the lucky few to snag this bag, you’ll have really good odds that can be sure that not everyone else at the party will be carrying the same bag as you.

The Poppy Purse will be available at Barneys locations and online sometime at the end of November.  Be sure to mark your calendars!  Once this hits the stores, it will disappear fast.

I WANT IT! Holiday 2007 Introduced!

As a child, the pre-holiday season fanned the flames of my greed in nasty ways.  While watching commercials about toys, I would attempt to shout out, "I want it!" before my sister had a chance to express interest.  Somehow, in my twisted little mind, I felt I had staked a claim to that particular toy. 

I’m older now, and my toys have changed.  Internally, I’m secretly still screaming "I want it!" while perusing the holiday collections making their debut this October.  Here are some products new for this holiday season.  How could one not want them all?

Beauty, Beauty Blog, Beauty Blogger, Makeup, Cosmetics, Product Reviews, Makeup Reviews, Raging Rouge, Lola Cosmetics, Holiday 2007, Joy Palette I reviewed the Lola Cosmetics holiday collection back in September, LONG before it’s retail debut (click HERE to read it).  Want my Lola Laptop in "Joy"?  You’ll have to pry it from my cold, dead hand.  This purse-sized palette is packed with warm metallic eye shades and two sexy lip shades perfect for the holiday season.  The generous mirror size makes on-the-go touch-ups easy.  Keep your eyes peeled for the "Joy" version of Lola’s laptop.  Soon to be released for the holiday season!

Stila’s Gift of Glaze contains 6 lip glazes, each only slightly smaller than the regular retail size.  At $28 for the entire set (hello–that’s less than $5 per gloss), this makes an economical gift for yourself or a friend.  The Gift of Glaze set includes two new shades for the season (nutmeg spice and candy cane), and four popular shades (grapefruit, apricot, vanilla, and brown sugar).  These glosses smell as delicious as their names!  Don’t miss it at Sephora.
