NARS Spring 2010: Purple Rain

I need more nail polish like I need a hole in the head, but when NARS launched their new spring colours including the new polish called Purple Rain, I caved. Photo taken with flash.

NARS Purple Rain

Purple Rain is a dark blue based loaded with fine red and blue shimmers. The overall effect is a rich, deep purple with a red shimmery sheen. Purple Rain is $21.00 CA/$16.00 US.

Anyone else feeling this purple?

MAC Spring 2010: Sneak Preview and Behind-the-Scenes

It's the end of August yet we're already looking ahead to spring. I stumbled upon this article and slideshow on New York Magazine's website. It's not so much a sneak preview of the products we'll all be drooling over come spring, but more a look at how MAC MAs go about coming up with the looks for the runway and in turn inspiring the collections available in stores.

I'm so inspired and excited by these behind-the-scenes shots and they're an incredible reminder of the artistry side of MAC.

Pigments and grey-pinks and glosses, oh my!
