La Prairie Midnight Blues Collection for Fall 2010
From morning to midnight, La Prairie has your colour needs covered, with sensual shades for the eyes, cheeks and lips that conjure visions of Paris nightlife, off the beaten path cabarets and all that jazz. It’s about understated sexiness, in the form of berry and plum lips, warm cheeks and a sultry, smoky eye in unexpected colour combinations of blues and violets.
Says noted New York City makeup artist, founder of Cheek to Chic makeup consultancy and La Prairie Colour Ambassador Raychel Wade, “Fall is a time when women reach for rich makeup colours, and “Midnight Blues” delivers just that! Using deep blues and cool pinks is a great way to accentuate and enhance your natural look, and this colour palette provides endless possibilities to create just the right amount of drama, so people notice you and not just your makeup!”
“Our customers crave a bit of sensuality in colour, along with science in skincare, so we work tirelessly to deliver both. Our “Midnight Blues” collection weaves together a beautiful story of sultry nights that is sure to strike a chord with women,” says La Prairie President Lynne Florio.

$55 plus dollars!? What a freaking turn off. The packaging doesn’t look that great either. This will surely be a miss for me!
The lipsticks look interesting.
Looks nice, but is sooo expensive
unfortunately this is not for me.
An eyepencil for $50? I don’t think so! :O
Why are all of their products so expensive? I thought price went up with demand, but who would pay almost sixty dollars for one lipstick?!
It’s a luxury line!
While I love their skincare, I am not sure about their makeup. Why are they calling their makeup cellular treatment? Do their makeup have any skincare properties?
Yes, they do – or at least skincare ingredients!
Hi Christine
Will you ever review La Prairie’s skin care line at all?
Skin care… I don’t know. It’s very expensive, so I don’t think it’s in my budget. I also don’t test many anti-aging products, because I’m not at the right age for them.
WOW. Only for the rich and famous. However, even if I had the money I would rather go get some MAC. Yes. Me thinks.
Expensive lip & face stuff I understand… I can even get behind luxury eyeshadow… but what could a $50 eye liner do for me? Have you tried these, Christine? What makes them worth the $50 price tag?
Not yet!
$50 for an eyeliner?!?!??! jeez i thought urban decay liner was expensive
