Estee Lauder Holiday 2010 Collection - Extravagant

Extravagant is one of the best words to describe myself and many of the purchases that I tend to make this time of the year. I think that this is the perfect way to describe a holiday color collection with the introduction of the Estee Lauder new Pure Color collection. I am envisioning that the items in this collection can very easily take a simple day look to extraordinary for an evening party or date. I am hoping for some lovely red lip shades in this new collection...

Here is the new collection from this company...

Estee Lauder has really out done themselves with their past two collections, the shades in this collection are stunning and would be a lovely look to wear at a party this holiday. I am divided on what my favorite product from this collection is yet. My choices are the eye shadow palette, the new shade of red lipstick, and the nail polish that looks like a deep purple shade of my beloved Ciel de Nuit. I don't think that I even could find a favorite of those three but I do know that I would get lots of use from all of those products.
