Bobbi Brown Fall 2010 Collection - Black Velvet Collection

In addition to the Denim and Rose Collection that Bobbi Brown released earlier in the summer, they have also released a second fall collection called Black Velvet. I feel like Denim and Rose was more of a transition collection with shades that would work in fall but could also be worn in the late summertime. I am beginning to think that this will be a trend over the next few seasons to release transition collections and keep people collecting limited edition shades and products. The overall description of the collection from Bobbi Brown is "Feeling fierce? Give us 5 minutes. We'll give you an edge." I love this collection from first sight.

Here's the collection...

Kohl Eye Liner - Line, define, and shade your eyes with Bobbi's new Kohl Eye Liner. This silky-smooth formula delivers dense, even, and blendable pigment, so lining your lids superclose to your lashline (without that annoying gap) just got easy. Also great smudged along top and lower lashes for a smoky effect. Available in three shades, part of Bobbi's New Black Velvet Collection.

- Black Chocolate - deep brown

- Black Plum - deep plum

- Black - black

Metallic Eye Shadow - Now in three new almost-black shades. Metallic Eye Shadow combines rich, high-pigment color with intense shimmer. Each shade applies smoothly and evenly, and stays crease-free for all-day wear.

- Black Berry - deep shimmering plum

- Black Charcoal - deep shimmering gray

- Black Cocoa - deep shimmering brown

Eye Shadow - Bobbi's original silky-matte formula, now available in two new powerful, almost-black shades. Layer and blend for drama and definition. Each shade also makes a wicked powder eye liner. Available in two new almost-black shades.

Sparkle Eye Shadow - Bobbi's grown-up take on glitter. This lightweight formula lights up your eyes with a combination of shimmering pearls and fine glitter. Thanks to it's creamy, translucent base, it glides on smoothly and won't crease or travel south.

With emollient shea butter and plant-derived skin conditioners, this amazing formula glides on smooth, wears all day, and leaves lips soft and moisturized. now in two dramatic new shades.

This is a wonderful collection for fall! I am so excited to play with these new shades. First, my shopping list for eye makeup. I want the Kohl Eye Liner in the Black shade, all three new shades of the Metallic Eye Shadow, and both new shades of the Sparkle Eye Shadow. My list for lips is a bit shorter but not much. I want the Lip Color in the Black Raspberry shade and the Creamy Lip Color in the Black Cherry shade. I can't want to wear dramatic makeup shades this season.
