Lancôme's Maharani Jewels - The Fall Collection.

Another Fall Collection, this one takes us from Summer to Fall effortlessly. Lancôme opened it's first store in India last year and this collection brings us the colors and sights that India is noted for. The shades range from deeply colored and spicy, brightly jeweled, to the gorgeous natural hues of the landscape. Beautiful! This is the Lancôme's Maharani Jewels collection.

The star product of the collection has to be this bronzer, Poudre Elephant Teint. As the elephant is an iconic symbol in India, it signifies royalty and internal strength.

This is the perfect product to achieve a gorgeous glow. Look at how the elephant is embossed in the powder of this new limited-edition bronzer. This is almost to pretty to put a brush to!

Next up is the Le Crayon Khôl Kajal and the Maharani Color Design Eye Shadow Quad. The raw and natural tones found throughout India’s countryside are seen in the Lotus Splendor palette with its earthy brown, peach and copper eye shadows, while the Secrets of Benghal palette features soft pink, dusty mauve, eggplant and highlighting shadows. Paired with Le Crayon Khôl Kajal in India Ink, the combination of shadow and dark liner work in harmony to create a sultry, intense eye look.

Finally, there are three new exclusive Juicy Tubes. Inspired by the intricate motifs of Mehndi art, these Juicy Tubes are embellished with a golden design of scallop lines, dots, teardrops and paisley shapes. Shades range from Mango Mystere to Guava Enchantment and Autumn Jasmine. Beautiful!

 

I can see myself wearing all of these shades very easily.  And while the bronzer is beautiful, the more I look at the collection, I think that I want the shadows even more.

Maharani Jewels just debuted online this week and if it is not on your local Lancôme counter yet, it will be any day now.

MAC Electroflash Mineralize Eye Shadow Picks.

The new MAC Electroflash Mineralize Eye Shadows are definitely the highlight of the collection. I love how there are two different sides to the soft shadows. One side is a single color that seamlessly blends with the other side that is a myriad of shades marbled together.

My favorite out of all of the shadows has to be Love Connection. I have been struggling for the perfect, simple to apply eyeshadow this Summer. Sometimes I want a bit more than just a quick sweep of bronzer across my eye, and I hate a full on eyeshadow look during the Summer day. The Love Connection shades used together are perfect, and compliment the other colors I have been regularly applying to the rest of my face.

 

My other picks of the shadows include first, Odd Couple with the beautiful shades of gold and purple, which looks surprisingly stunning awash over my hazel eyes.  Then there is Sea & Sky. The metallic sky blue is gorgeous as a liner with the mix of metallic blues, including the most beautiful teal, a.k.a. sea blue. Beautiful!

  

Go see them in person for yourself. These shadows are really too beautiful to pass up. The shadows with the rest of the Electroflash collection will be available on Thursday (July 10th) at your favorite MAC counter or online, of course, at MACCosmetics.com.
