Art with Attitude: Kat Von D Leaves Her Mark, Exclusively at Sephora
This summer, beauty gets a bad girl edge when Kat Von D, star of L.A. Ink and owner of High Voltage Tattoo, introduces her one-of-a-kind collection exclusively for Sephora. Whether your look is pin-up perfection or rocker chic, this limited edition line-up has something for those who like to add a little edge to their eyes and punch to their pout.
“People have always asked me what I would be doing if I wasn’t a tattooer, and the only thing I could imagine being as fulfilling as tattooing would be doing makeup!,” says Kat Von D. “To me, makeup is one of the most artistic outlets of self expression, and this collection – a mix of old Hollywood glamour with an L.A. vibe – personifies that. The colors are exceptionally versatile so you can create a look that is classic glamour or amp up the volume for something bolder.”
 Eyeshadow Palette ($35) – available in two shade collections, aptly called Ludwig (Kat’s Cat) and Beethoven (Kat’s favorite composer), each palette contains eight eyeshadows, in colors ranging from Lucifer (black) to Tequila (light, golden yellow).
Eyeliners ($16) – six shades of liquid eyeliner, perfect for amping up the star appeal and creating the sexiest cat eyes. Available in Puro Amor (black), Turbo Lover (purple), Immortal Love (brown), Love Metal (gunmetal), Romantico (army green) and Black Metal Love (black with glitter).
Eye Brush Set ($48) – a set of five eyeshadow brushes to bring out your inner artist and achieve a flawless finish.
Lipsticks ($18) – four incarnations of red to accentuate the perfect pout – are you feeling mischievous? Underage Red (blue red), Lolita (rose), Misfit (raisin) or Hellbent (burgundy).
The collection will be available from May 12, 2008 in all Sephora stores, as well as by calling 1-877-SEPHORA or logging on to www.Sephora.com.

Kat Von D fan? ;D
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
These are pretty expensive (for my tastes anyway.) Then again, it’s Kat Von D. So, I completely understand.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I can’t say I know much about her, but I had several people asking me about her line!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
I’ve always admired Kat von D’s makeup. Can’t wait to see this makeup in the flesh, so to speak. The deep purple in the second palette looks especially pretty.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
Awesome! Let me know what you think when you get a chance to see it!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Those are the most wearable colours I have ever seen in one e/s palette! (the first one)
Thursday, May 8, 2008
lol, Ladybug! Does that mean you’ll check it out?
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Wow, Ladybug, I agree! That first palette looks awesome! I’d just like to know the color payoff and how long it lasts throughout the day..
Any chance of swatches when it comes out, Christine? =D
Thursday, May 8, 2008
Hey Tracy! If I can get swatches, I’ll definitely post them!

they feel like mac and urban decay e/s , good pigmentation too !
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Oh.. I guess since it’s still a Sephora line it will be the same quality as their store brand..
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I couldn’t tell you, though I haven’t been disappointed with Sephora’s brand.
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
the brush set is really cute! i love the packaging, will probably sucker me into buying more of this collection that i need. :P
Thursday, May 8, 2008
The packaging is definitely nice!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
I must have it all. I love Kat.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I’m happy to see we have some Kat Von D fans here :)
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
The both eyeshadow palettes look really good, but I refuse to buy anything from a celebrity line. Perfumes, clothing, and now they’re invading make up!!! They just come off as money hungry to me. She always wears full make up, so it’s easier to believe, but it could just as easily be the make up artist from the show. Ok, that’s my little rant for the afternoon, I need some candy.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
lol! Celebs don’t sway me to buy something, but if I like the product, I’ll buy it.
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
OH KOOL! I AM GONNA GET EVERTHING. I CAN’T WAIT!
Thursday, May 8, 2008
Awesome, let me know how you like it all!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Aww it’s all gorgeous, completely my taste & i’m a huge fan of Kat! Shame Sephora don’t ship to the Uk :(
Thursday, May 8, 2008
It’s too bad they don’t ship to the UK :(
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
Im not really liking much ,the palette cuz these colours r not much of my type.But yes LINERS OH YES turbo…souds YUMMY!
Zzainy..
Thursday, May 8, 2008
The liners caught my eye, too!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
I can’t stand her so I would NEVER want her makeup line
Thursday, May 8, 2008
Why don’t you like her? (Just curious.)
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
The collection looks nice, but if the product is the same quality as Sephora’s house brand then no way, their eyeshadows are not quality products in my opinion. Too chalky.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I noticed that too, such a shame that their namesake brand is…not that good.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
That’s too bad that Sephora’s stuff was like that for you!
Thursday, May 8, 2008
Love the collection but ANY lippies!!
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I love the names of the lipsticks!
Thursday, May 8, 2008
How do Sephora shadows and brushes compare to MACs? I don’t own anything Sephora brand. I’m a MAC girl but I love this palette and the brush set! Can’t wait to check it out.
Thursday, May 8, 2008
I don’t feel that they’re as *good* as MAC for the most part, but I haven’t found them to work terribly or anything. I would say they’re decent, but some shades you may need to pack it on.
Friday, May 9, 2008
The first eye shadow palette (Ludwig) looks pretty interesting as do the liquid eye liners. Obviously I like the lipsticks but I am pretty sure I already have similar shades :(
Saturday, May 10, 2008
I’m curious to see the lipsticks myself, though I don’t think I’ll be picking any up! I can’t justify more, ha.
Friday, May 16, 2008
i think kat von d is so cool i want to get my ferist tatoo frum her
Sunday, May 18, 2008
Cool, Pixie!
Friday, May 16, 2008
Thanks for posting this collection, Christine. I wouldn’t have known about it otherwise. I fell in love with the palettes immediately and it was so hard to decide which one to get(I only got one since my budget is a bit stretched from buying so much MAC!). Ordered the Beethoven palette; love the purples in it.
Sunday, May 18, 2008
No problem, Kate! I’m glad you were able to order the palette!
Monday, May 26, 2008
have ordered the beethoven palette as well..cant wait to get it, i fell in LOVE with the colors! ordered the brush set as well (couldnt help myself!!) i’ll let you know how it works out :)
Tuesday, May 27, 2008
Oh, nice! Keep us updated, Angela ;)
Friday, May 30, 2008
Okay, I couldn’t resist and ended up getting Lolita l/s and the brush set in addition to the Beethoven palette. The l/s is a gorgeous dark rose shade; different from anything that I have. And love the kind of rubbery texture of the containers.
I was a bit disappointed in the brushes; they aren’t even as nice as MAC’s LE brush sets, and one of them is synthetic(the flat eyeliner) and the case they come in, though cute, is pretty cheap. Overall, I felt like I got my money’s worth with the makeup, but I felt the brushes were over priced.
Tuesday, June 3, 2008
Oh, awesome! I haven’t heard much about the lipsticks, so it’s great to hear from you about Lolita!
Too bad about the brush sets :(
Tuesday, June 17, 2008
Got both eyeshadow sets… really nice quality, compareable to macs. high pigment and go on super smooth. love them both! Ludwig is nice for day, and beethoven gives a really nice sultry look!
Wednesday, June 18, 2008
Awesome! I’m so happy they’re working well for you, Myla!
Saturday, May 23, 2009
oh i just found out about this brand at sephora, and i must say they are so nice, i love the e/s pallettes - they have the nicest feel and consitency (like mac and urban decay), the eyeliners are cool too. the prices arent so bad either. i want all 3.
