Holiday 2012: L’Oréal Paris Diamonds Collection.

When I think of the holidays and parties, I think glitz and glamour - diamond like. This new limited edition from L’Oréal Paris says just that. It is appropriately called the Diamonds Collection. These beauties will have you primped to perfection with the dazzling array of products for eyes, lips and nails.

The products were actually inspired by the brand's iconic tagline, "Because You're Worth It." When you see them, I think you will agree that they are worth it too.

Angels’ nails were contoured into a short, oval shape and were painted with NEW VS Nail Lacquer in Bitten, a soft pink shade. Our PINK models nailed-it on the runway with VS Nail Lacquer in Peep Show, a glittery metallic pink that perfectly matches the cheer.
