Winter 2008 Collections Wrap-up

Christine — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 13:33:57 +0000

What were your favorite winter collections this year? Which ones did you skip, which ones did you end up with everything?

You know what I noticed?� Most brands don’t have winter collections–they only bother with releasing holiday collections, gift sets, and/or palettes or some combination thereof.� MAC dominates the winter ‘08 season with its non-holiday releases!

MAC Dame Edna Collection Information (Official)

Christine — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 16:43:57 +0000

“Hello possums!” Dame Edna Everage is in the house! With her zesty zingers, cutting-edge appearance – lilac hair (which is completely natural), rhinestone-encrusted face furniture, fanciful frocks – frankly; there’s nothing like a Dame!

Dame Edna is the resident muse for our spectacular post-holiday makeup collection, and modestly describes herself as “probably the most popular and gifted woman in the world today: housewife, investigative journalist, social anthropologist, talk-show host, swami, children’s book illustrator, spin doctor, megastar, and Icon.” With packaging as mirthful and minx-like as The Legend herself, the Dame Collection of heavy-on-the-lilac Lipstick/Lipglass, eye shadow, Highlight powder and nail lacquers is in a class by itself! “Follow my beauty regime possums, and you’ll never be cosmetically challenged” – Dame Edna
