Elizabeth Arden's NEW Limited Edition Anniversary Lipstick: Red Door Red!

March 16, 2010

To commemorate 100 years of beauty innovation, Elizabeth Arden is celebrating with the launch of the NEW Limited Edition Anniversary Lipstick. This limited lipstick is a universally flattering, sheer color with the Red Door Red hue stylishly representing strength and femininity.

In honor of Miss Arden’s belief in the importance of total beauty, Elizabeth Arden is proud to donate all of the proceeds from the lipstick to Look Good … Feel Better ^®. This organization helps to improve the self-image, appearance and quality of life for people undergoing cancer treatments by teaching beauty techniques, which help them to cope with the beauty-related consequences of cancer and boost their self-confidence.

The lipstick is housed in a beautiful, luxurious gold case, very reminiscent of true 1940's glamour. New though, is how this lipstick offers a triple-emollient moisturizing formula that contains vitamins A, C and E, along with aloe, to instantly hydrate lips and cushion them for total comfort.

This beauty is availale for $20.00 right now at Elizabeth Arden counters as well as online. I cannot think of a more perfect way to celebrate the brands true grace and rich beauty history than with this launch. I will be picking one up just as a collectors item.

Bobbi Brown's Pretty Powerful Contest Update!

March 15, 2010

The end of January, I told you about this fantastic initiative called Pretty Powerful from Bobbi Brown. (Read back if you do not remember). Well, now it is time to vote for who you think should win this video contest and prove why makeup makes her feel pretty powerful.

The fifteen semifinalists were chosen and have created a second round of videos demonstrating flawless and flattering makeup applications using Bobbi Brown Cosmetics' Color Strips Palettes. The gallery of these semifinalists' videos is open, and Bobbi Brown needs our help to select the winners! Of course, Bobbi will also have some say. Once the public has voted and narrowed down the selection to the top 5 videos, she will hand-pick three grand prize winners to be flown to New York to join her for a master makeup class.

Most importantly, by voting, we are making a real impact in the lives of women in need by voting. You see, for every vote cast, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics will donate $1 to Dress for Success, an organization close to Bobbi's heart that provides underprivileged women with interview suits and career development advice. To vote, your readers may head to bobbibrowncosmetics.com/prettypowerful.
