Michael Kors Teams Up with Estée Lauder

by

Via our friends at The Budget Fashionista:

What: Fashion designer and Project Runway fav Michael Kors has a new project in the works. The man who’s known for creating chic and luxurious clothing is partnering with Estée Lauder to create an affordable line of cosmetics. Called the Estée Lauder Michael Kors Very Hollywood Color Collection, the new line will reportedly feature two color-palates based on Kors’ most recent runway lineup. It is set to debut at department store makeup counters in January.

What Allure Says:
“‘Bel Air Beige’ is warm, with shimmery peaches for cheeks and lips, beige and chocolate for the eyes, and an opaque beige nail polish. ‘Rodeo Pink’ focuses on that color, at least for lips, cheeks, and nails; the black-and-white shadow duo works for sultry smoky eyes. There’s also a loose shimmer powder in pearly pink for the signature Kors glow.”

What We Say: For years, Michael Kors has been known as the go-to designer for chic clothing that’s inspired by worldwide vacation destinations—from St. Tropez to St. Barths. While we certainly won’t be making any trips to those exotic locales this winter, it’s nice to know we’ll be able to get products to give us the same faux “glow.” While we’re not sure how much makeup expertise Kors has, per se, we’ll go ahead and assume that Estée Lauder’s own experts helped him along the way in picking out the perfect shades.

Will you check out this new collaboration?

FOR THOSE OF YOU IN THE NYC AREA: If you’ve got a moment today or tomorrow to stop by the Seaport and get beautified via Maybelline’s new Color Sensational lip color, you won’t be disappointed! Experts will be on hand to offer you all kinds of beauty advice and tips (see schedule below) —  I’ll be stopping by! Look for the “Maybelline mobile unit” parked near South Street & Pier 17. **Maybelline is also heading to Miami! Stop by the Walgreens at 3595 S.W. 22nd Street from Friday October 30th-Sunday November 1st.

UPDATE: I did stop by! I got my lips done, and learned to not be afraid of lip liner. I’m wearing no. 15 lip pencil in pink, and Color Sensational Lip Color in Pink Peony in this pic. The secret to lip liner? Pick a color that matches your actual, natural lip color, and go ever so slightly outside of your lipline. Also, blend the lip liner into your lips instead of making an actual line.  The result? Fuller, plumper lips without using a stinging plumper! Check out the Maybelline mobile unit, get a color match, and leave happy. (Note: don’t fear the cold — there are heating lamps outside to keep you warm at the event!)
