Summer 2008 - Lancome - The Daria Collection
This May, Lancôme is proud to launch Brazilian Earth Colors by Daria Werbowy. Created by Lancôme spokesmodel Daria Werbowy, these three products include a lipstick, lip gloss and eyeshadow quartet. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Centro Espacial Vik Muniz, a group that supports arts education programs for young adults in Rio de Janeiro.
The project came about after Daria visited one of the Centro Espacial programs as part of a trip to Brazil. She toured the facilities and was treated to a special performance by the young adults who study a variety of specialties there. Moved by what she saw, she approached the Lancôme team about creating products that could be sold to benefit Centro Espacial. The team enthusiastically agreed and Daria quickly visited the labs outside of Paris to learn about mixing makeup. The product development and research teams showed her how to blend colors and choose textures and ingredients. A fan of neutral shades, Daria decided upon beautiful nudes that call to mind some of the earth tones she saw in Brazil.
Brazilian Earth Colors by Daria Werbowy will launch this May around the world. In the United States, it will be available exclusively at Sephora, the Lancôme boutiques and www.lancome-usa.com.
The Daria Collection includes the following new products: Color Fever Lipstick in Beige Caracai, $26.00, Color Fever Gloss in Nude Prainha, $24.00, Color Design Eye Shadow Quad in Carnet de Velours, $45.00
This collection looks gorgeous! I have a quad they released a few years ago when Drew Barrymore was the inspiration. It has gorgeous pinks and a black and silver for an awesome smokey eye. It’s the same kind of packaging as this one, but black velvet with a black velvet tie. Very luxurious! The gloss looks hot!
Oh, very nice. I was totally lemming the shadows in this, look gorgeous!
I am not like it much, is the collection really hit the stores today?I saw it a few weeks ago.
I am curious about this.
They did a good job of getting together wearable colors that don’t look boring!
I am telling you, I have never spend so much money on eyeshadows like this spring/summer. I am a sucker for golds and bronze. And notboring browns.
I hope they launch some grey in the fall, because I am not a fan of that.
LOL! I hope they launch um… bright yellow? I’m not a huge fan of bright yellow, but it depends on the hue/shade…
I will look sick in yellow, so I stay far away from that. 😉
I look bad in certain yellows, too!
i like this collection. these are gorgeous. there shadows are really smooth, great texture.
So glad you like it, Traca! 🙂
Cool, I love the Lancome Quads. I also have the Drew Barrymore one. This one looks gorgeous. I think I’ll cave in and buy it even though i have way too many golds and browns!
Awesome, Sandy! Let me know how you like this one if you happen to pick it up!
Does anyone know if this collection was released in Canada? I was looking for it in pretty much every lancome counter in my city and in all the sephoras but I couldn’t find it, actually the people behind the counters didn’t even know what I was talking about!
Oh no! I’m not positive Brenda – I know it’s up on the US Lancome site, have you checked the Canadian Lancome site?
Yes, sadly it’s not on there. I suppose it isn’t coming out here then. Darn.
BOO 🙁
