Midnight Roses is the newest fall collection from Lancome and I must say that I am betting that this will be one of my favorites. I love roses and Lancome has produced some great collections inspired by roses in the past few years and I am hopeful that this one is as wonderful as the previous. The previous rose-inspired collections have been spring or summer collections and this one is very different, the hues are deeper and much more dramatic. This collection consists of color products for all facial features and one of newest fragrances from the company. I am already beginning to plot out my shopping list for this collection, I love so many of the shades and I must own the perfume that is grouped with these products!
The Nordstrom website provides a full description of the collection and the Lancome website provides more details about the products themselves. "Lancome is excited to present Midnight Roses, our Fall 2012 Color Collection. Inspired by Tresor Midnight Rose and the majestic hue of purple, the makeup evokes mischievious feminity and glamour.", states the Nordstrom website to describe the collection. I love all the deep berry shades for the lips and all the lovely purples for the eyes, this is a great collection!
Here is the Midnight Roses collection from Lancome!

I love these lipstick and lip gloss shades, I know that I have been trying to buy less lip products this season but so many great shades have come out so far this season and I continue to find more and more shades that I want to buy. My favorite shades are from the new lipstick shades, Rouge Resille and Parme Finalle are both lovely and will be very flattering on my pale skin. I must go to the counter for both of these shades as soon as I can. I like the lip gloss but I want to see how pigmented they are before I decide what I want to order, they look as though they will be more like liquid lipsticks than just lip gloss. Assuming that it is a liquid lipstick, I want to buy another berry hue from this formula (Magic Pourpre is my choice!). I know that I should not be buying any more lip products but these are just such great choices for me!
I want both of the eye shadow palettes, I have been trying to buy more shadow and blush shades this season and so far have picked up a few great shades. My favorite of the eye shadow palettes is Violet Magnetique, I have been all over purple eye shadows this fall and this is another great choice and therefore I can't wait to see this palette at the counter. I am very interested in the new blush palette that has been brought out with this collection however I want to make sure that this will be a product that I can easily use in the correct fashion. Rose Flush is the shade that I would start out with and I will want to play with this at counter when I go!
Midnight Roses is one of my favorite collections of this season so far and I don't think that I will be adding many more to that list at this time in the season. I can't quite state if it is my absolute favorite yet but it is a contender for this title!
