Estée Lauder New Pure Color Modern Mercury Fall 2011


Fall brings us an architectural inspired collection by Estée Lauder Creative Makeup Director Tom Pecheux, skin is softly blurred with just a hint of shimmer, eyes are boldly graphic and flaunt the metallic trend of the season while lips are dusted with a matte finish in contagious shades of beige, pink and red.  Nails are finished in a manic shade of green for an unexpected accent. Together it creates a look reminiscent of rogue femininity combined with modern minimalism that is truly passionate and chic.
Pure Color Illuminating Powder Gelée - $45 - Limited Edition - this first-of-a-kind, “multi-powder” formula creates a theatrical blur of shimmer on the skin when applied dry and a fierce flush of colour when applied wet. The unique suspension of golden pigments and pearls float on top of the skin, resulting in a truly unique sensorial experience for skin. The futuristic powder is flexible and uses a luminosity boosting complex that makes the complexion appear perfectly smooth, sexy and glowing with a polished finish.  

It sounds cool so I'm looking forward to trying it in person - I'm hoping the colour looks a little pinker when wet than it does in the picture - beiges don't make a very nice blush colour on me!
Pure Color Velvet Lipstick - Nude Velvet (regular product) - raw beige, Fuchsia Velvet - pretty magenta and Red Velvet - true red (both Limited Edition) - $32 - with a non-drying, ultra creamy, soft matte formula that saturates lips with a lush, velvet finish and is pigment-rich for a unique, unparalleled wear.
or if you prefer a creme finish - Pure Color Long Lasting Lipstick - Fuchsia Fever (Limited Edition), Scarlet Siren and Beige - $32
Pure Color EyeShadow Duo - Modern Mercury, Platinums and Black Chrome - $34 - Limited Edition
Pure Color Liquid Eyeliner - Black Quartz, Silver Zinc and Graphite - green-gold - $25 - Limited Edition - highly pearlized shades with a rich colour and sparkle application that is long wearing, non-flaking and water-resistant for a look that is vividly precise. Has a felt-tip applicator brush that lays down the sparkle infused formula evenly and easily with one effortless stroke.
Pure Color Nail Lacquer - Metallic Sage - $25 - Limited Edition - this is the item I have my eye on in the collection - from the picture it looks like a really cool green!

Available August at Holt Renfrew and selected The Bay stores across Canada.
