Not sure about you… but I’m intrigued. Bobbi Brown Cosmetics has launched this line of slender makeup palettes named “Color Strips”. Available in three different palettes of color–aquamarine, bonfire and orchid–Bobbi herself has hand-picked shades that pop and combined them with tried and true neutrals to create palettes that work for everyone. As you know, dear readers, I LOVE palettes. I’m also a big fan of portability, so I’m really dying to get my hands on some Color Strips!
Included in each Color Strip palette is five Eye Shadows and three shades of Pot Rouge designed to work perfectly together.
Retail price $60

Bobbi Brown asked makeup devotees to submit videos of their top beauty tips and Pretty Powerful stories. Fifteen semifinalists were chosen and have created a second round of videos demonstrating flawless and flattering makeup applications using Bobbi Brown Cosmetics’ Color Strips Palettes. The gallery of these semifinalists’ videos is open for voting TODAY!
Most importantly, however, is that for every vote cast (up to $10,000), Bobbi Brown Cosmetics will donate $1 to Dress for Success, an organization close to Bobbi’s heart that provides underprivileged women with interview suits and career development advice. To vote, head over to www.bobbibrowncosmetics.com/prettypowerful.
Of course, Bobbi will also have some say. Once the public has voted and narrowed down the selection to the top 5 videos, she will hand-pick three grand prize winners to be flown to New York to join her for a master makeup class. Lucky them!

According to celebrity makeup artist Christopher Drummond–creator of the all-natural, vegan, mineral makeup line Christopher Drummond Beauty–Spring 2010 makeup is all about beautiful but muted colors, coral lips, and the bottom eyelid. Here are Christopher’s trend predictions for spring 2010:
Color: Colors such as a slightly shimmery baby blue, a barely there soft pink, and a softly noticeable tangerine color are going to be the “go to” colors for spring/summer. These colors work on everyone and bring more focus to the skin, cheekbones and lips.
Lips: Coral, whether bright or muted, is the new classic that will be explored starting this spring/summer and throughout 2010. Also, anyone can wear coral because it is fresh and youthful looking and rich yet subtle at the same time.
Eyes: Spring/Summer 2010 will be all about the bottom lid. Adding a light amount of colored liner on the bottom lid, which looks fresh and modern and is a way to add color to the eyes without going overboard. (Tip: this color should not match the top lid). Another eye trend is no makeup at all on the bottom. A nice thick liner with rich mascara and a colored shadow on top paired with a bare bottom lash line will open the eyes up and look youthful and fresh.

Since I boldly proclaimed MAC Spring Colour Forecast 4 as my favorite of the bunch… I figured it made sense for me to begin my makeup reviews here! The top image is from MAC, of the entire collection. The photo below it is mine, of the products that I sampled. I’ll state it plainly… I love each and every one of these four products, and recommend them ALL highly!
The Eyeshadow x4 compact contains the following (starting from top left): Manila Paper (pale frosted white gold), Flip (bronze gold), Aztec Brick (frosted true copper) and Creole Beauty (frosted dark golden brown). My favorite way to apply these shadows is as follows: 1) Apply Manila Paper on lids, 2) Apply Flip from crease up to browbone, 3) Apply Aztec Brick in crease and 4) Use Creole Beauty as an accent (upper and lower lashline). This shadow quad has quickly become my “go-to” Spring makeup pick for its versatility (skip the darker shades for a more casual look, or use them for more drama). I also LOVE the magnetic closure on the palette!
The latest limited-edition introduction by MAC is a smash hit. The gradient design of Blush Ombre in Springshine makes the product so versatile! Swirl it to use as a bronzer, or just for a touch of tan on the cheeks. Or, use the darker section for contouring, and the paler section for highlighting! Either way, you end up with a sun-kissed look that is most welcome!
Retail price is $25 for Springshine Blush Ombre, and $36 for Eye Shadow x4 Colour 4.

Four color stories, and four distinct moods captured in the form of cosmetics! Known for their breadth of product selection and depth of color options, the MAC Spring Colour Forecast is a dizzyingly immense collection even by MAC standards… and–while well loved–was quite a homework assignment for me! In the coming days, I’ll be posting reviews and swatches of products from each of the four makeup groups.
Spring Colour Forecast by MAC Cosmetics contains four different sub-collections: Coral, Pink/Lavender, Yellow/Gold and Plum/Burgundy… The collection also includes two new limited-life introductions: Crush Metal Pigment and Blush Ombre.
What do I love most about this collection? Sampling different colors from each of the groups, I learned something interesting about my personal makeup preferences. While I assumed after a quick glance that Spring Colour Forecast 2 would obviously be my favorite, sampling the products has me wholeheartedly endorsing Spring Colour Forecast 4 as the “must-have” pick for Spring. Filled with shimmery nudes, subtle bronzes and sheer golds… it’s easy to make these shades work for just about any style or complexion.
