The Lipstick League – week of 10.27.14

Question of the Week: What is your favorite season when it comes to new beauty collections?

EauMG’s Answer: I love autumn and holiday collections. I like autumn because the colors are usually darker and I like holiday because of the packaging. I typically always hate spring because pastels look stupid on me. And summer collections are usually bad for me as well. They’re always like turquoise eyeshadow and tons of bronzer.

NEW: Senna Cosmetics Virtual Vintage Fall/Winter 2010 Color Collection

Senna Cosmetics Virtual Vintage Fall 2010

I absolutely love Senna Cosmetics fall/winter 2010 aesthetic. It totally fits in with the vibe here at EauMG. Every fall I crave Marcel waves and vintage glamour with a slightly gothic take. Eugenia Wetson is giving me that all wrapped in a pretty little makeup collection inspired by 1940’s designer Adrian and the imagery of Avatar. The collection features:

For autumn 2010, Smashbox has launched the Masquerade Collection. This collection features rich colors with shimmer and sparkle.

EYES: There’s the Masquerade Eye Shadow Palette that retails for $35. This palette contains 9 powder eyeshadows.

MAC To The Beach (Ya’ll) Summer 2010 Color Collection

To be honest, I think the only reason that I like this summer collection is because of the packaging. It’s a “print” that is found throughout my home decor. (Think Thomaspaul creepy sealife prints found on pillows, etc. and antique sealife prints). The motifs are the ones featured on the model’s ill-fitting swimsuit. The colors aren’t anything new. In fact, many are the same colors MAC has all year but in snazzy summer packaging.

The collection describes itself as such: “The seaside has a kind of golden, sexy alchemy we’re
