Dior Dandy Fall Collection.

Is it okay to want an entire collection? I am talking every last piece. Every single one. There is not one piece in the Dior Fall Collection, Dandy, that I can go without.

Dandy is more than a look; it's a state of mind, inspired by the chic, independent spirit of the 1930s. Unexpectedly glamorous in contrasts of rich feminine plums, berries and the 'masculine' chic of warm, deep beige shades.

The collection rundown:

Diorskin Shimmer Star in Copper Diamond  - A magical shimmering pressed powder.

Impression Cuir Leather Couture For The Eyes - A trio of the most beautiful chocolate brown shades.

2-Color Eyeshadow in Silver Look - These are contrasting for the ultimate Fall eye look.

Dior 5-Colour Eyeshadow - Iridescent Leather 539  - The colors are gorgeous in shimmery taupes and golds.

Crayon Eyeliner in Iridescent Khaki  - To compliment any of the eye palettes to line and define to the max.

Rouge Dior Replenishing Lipcolor 
- Beautiful with full coverage, gorgeous color and long-lasting shine.

Crème de Gloss - To use on top of the lipstick or used on it's own for a beautiful high-shine soft wash of color.

Dior Addict Ultra Gloss Reflect - Dior's cult fave in a new revamped formula for beautiful multi-reflective pigments.

Are you craving the entire collection too?

I Need This Stat: Givenchy Black for Light Mask Light Enhancing Black Mask.

Wow! Say that name more than twice and still see if you can figure out what it is you are saying. All I know, is that the namew may be a bit mumbly-jumbly, but this product is something I need - STAT!

Black For Light Mask Light Enhancing Black Mask by Givenchy might just be the answer to my obsessions. I am currently obsessed with masks. I have been trying a new one a few times a week. My skin is so dull and tight and just plain ole' tired looking from the effects of the Sun and the self-tanning I have been putting it through for the past five or so months.  I love the way a mask feels and I am looking for even looking skin. I simply cannot take the brown dry splotches anymore.


This mask is full of antioxidants designed to refresh and refine the skin. Here is the description from Sephora (where it is sold only online):

"Givenchy Black For Light Enhancing Mask is a unique mask with a black, velvety foam texture and luminous particles that purify the skin. Illuminated by a photoluminescent active ingredient, unified by an exclusive cocktail of Vitamins A, B, and C, and revitalized with the free radical fighting blackberry elder extract, after use the complexion becomes amazingly brightened and bursts with freshness and vitality.

Each set contains nine 0.30 oz ampoules and an applicator brush. A Givenchy innovation, the Black for Light collection is a new generation of skincare created to lighten and brighten your complexion for flawless skin. The skin radiates a new glow, as if illuminated from within."

So, it is $80, which seems like a lot, especially the way I have been zipping through masks these days. But at less than $9 per mask, the deal doesn't seem so bad. I am hoping this beauty is the answer to both of my obsessions. I will be sure to report back!

Ooh - Another Juicy Tube to Add to My Collection!

I haven't worn fishnet stockings since my days of tap dancing, some 20 years ago - ha! But the new Juicy Tubes Rose Fishnets has me reliving those days, if only reminding me that they are not for everyday wear. Though, this Juicy Tube definitely is.


Rose Fishnets is the most beautiful rosy-nude shade with hints of gold. This limited edition beauty is available only at Sephora, where you will want to scoop up this tube, and fast! I just ordered mine and cannot wait to add it not only on my lips, but to my extensive Juicy Tube collection.

It's Modern Matte for Fall from Clinique.

Another Fall collection to look forward to that is totally my shades, is this new Modern Matte Collection from Clinique. Velvety rich meets fine powder finishes for a new matte - a modern matte.


Let the deep, lush shades of fall take on new dimension when you mix a very maxed-up matte on lids with high impact lips. This collection is full of brand new shades and a new product - my pick from the collection, the swivel-up cream-to-powder blush.


Blushwear Cream Stick  is a beautiful new cream-to-powder blush stick that glides on over cheeks for a natural, all-day glow. This blush can be dabbed easily onto the apples of the cheeks and blended out with your fingertips. Gorgeous. It comes in three perfect for Fall shades: Very Blush, Rosy Blush and Shy Blush.

The collection also includes a new lip colour, High Impact Lip Colour SPF 15. I am loving that most of the new Clinique lip products contain this often overlooked, but much needed sun protection. This colour is designed to wear all day, for up to 8 hours, in 20 shades. New in for Fall are Plum Nude, Go Fig and Rosette. Make sure to line the lips with the new Defining Liner for Lips in one of the three new shades, with an ingenious sharpener built right into the cap.

Rounding out the collection is a new shadow, the Colour Surge Eye Shadow Stay Matte in new beautiful shades. This shadow is Cliniques softest, smoothest, richest matte shadow that creates an elegant intensity with just a single stoke. The shadow does not feel heavy at all as it lasts all through the day with no creasing.

Check out Modern Matte online or at your favorite Clinique counter.
