Laura Mercier Fall 2010 Collection - Mystique

Mystique is the latest collection offered from Laura Mercier for this season. Usually, she brings two full collections out so I am assuming that this will be the first of two new ones. This collection is smaller than the usual seasonal collection with only six items in it. This collection is named Mystique and consists mostly of berries and grays. "Laura Mercier Mystique Collection is inspired by the mystery and sparkle of the city at nightfall. It's a look that's sophisticated, edgy, hip, and glamourous". I like the sound of this!

Here's the collection...

Sequin Eye Color - Laura Mercier Sequin Eye Color has soft-sparkle effects that glisten and captivates. The deep-impact shades can be swept over eyes softly for a stunning day look, or applied with more intensity for evening glamour.
- Peacock - deep teal green
- Sterling - pale gray blue
- Violetta - vibrant purple

Second Skin Cheek Colour - Laura Mercier Second Skin Cheek Colour is a light-as-air, velvety powder blush that sweeps on silky sheer colour easily and evenly. With skin-silkening natural botanicals, skin not only looks but also feels beautiful all day long.
- Barely Pink - pale pink

Shimmer Lip Colour - Laura Mercier Lip Colour - Shimmer now changes the way you feel about lipstick in one swipe in the newest, revolutionary lip colour formula. The wide range of shades and finishes enhances your lips appearance, protectst them from the elements, provides hydration and cares for lips like skincare.
- Amethyst - mauve pink shimmer

Lip Glace - Laura Mercier Lip Glace is a high-shine, perfectly pigmented lip gloss with rich long-lasting colour and brillant shine that creates the appearance of fuller lips. Any skin tone is virtually enhanced by creating a subtle contrast in texture.
- Pink Diamond - sheer delicate pink
- Meringue - creamy petal pink
- Discrete - natural rosy plum

Eye Basics - Laura Mercier Eye Basics creates the perfect canvas for eyes by camoflaging eye imperfections and enhancing the durability of eye makeup.
- Buff - medium pink beige

Eye Colour Brush - Laura Mercier Eye Colour Brush is a 100% natural brush perfectly sized to apply Laura Mercier "cashmere" eye colour to the eyelid and brow bone.

I really like this little collection, I see a bunch of items that I would like to own. For eyes, I want the Sequin Eye Colour in both Sterling and Violetta. For lips, I like the new shade of the Shimmer Lip Colour though I don't know how much use I will get out of it on a daily basis. I like the Lip Glace in both of the new pink shades and I know that I will wear them all year round. Lastly, i would like to the try the Eye Basics and see how it holds up against Urban Decay Primer Potion.
