  *********Update*********** this color IS available @ Sephora.com

The Daria Werbowy collection I talked about earlier has been a big hit for Lancome which is great for them and Centro Espacial but horrible for me. 

I knew they were selling out fast and checked two days ago on the website and I believe both the Color Fever Lipstick in Beige Caracaï and Color Fever Gloss Sensual Vibrant Lipshine were in stock! Now the Lipstick is out of stock! oooh I’m soooo mad, you just don’t know how much I can’t stand when something is out.  I really wanted that color bad.

Make sure to go through www.mypoints.com when ordering from www.Lancome.com  you get 2000 points per month and usually a free sample collection. 2000 mypoints is about ($14).

 I’m really trying to be patient but this is killing me!

International beauty is one of my many interests, especially the fusion of France and Brazil.  Being Frazilian myself I love seeing  Lancôme being inspired by the many colors of Brazil.  The connection came in when Daria Werbowy, supermmodel and Lancôme spokesperson, visited Rio and met up with Vic Muniz of Centro Espacial.  The Centro Espacial encourages art education.  Daria was impressed, and pitched a Brazilian inspired collection to Lancôme that would benefit the center.

I immediately ran out to the Lancôme counter to check it out but when they had no idea what I was talking about (don’t worry, I did pick up some other goodies!)  After looking over the email I realized my enthusiasm got me so dizzy I didn’t bother to read that the collection is only available @ sephora.com, Lancome Boutiques and Lancome USA. 

Kudos to Daria on the idea, I’m thrilled about the color palette being in earthy tones.  Very wearable, chic and elegant.  Check out the Video The Daria collection includes:

Color Fever Lipstick in Beige Caracaï, $26.00

Color Fever Gloss in Nude Prainha, $24.00

Color Design Eye Shadow Quad in Carnet de Velours, $45.00 

 I’m going to place my order tonight so I will keep you posted!

I get it, totes are here to say there is no use fighting the inevitable, totes are the new “free” t-shirt of our day.  Hopefully more will be eco conscious reuseable shopping bags that replace plastic shopping bags.

Department stores are catching on!  Macy’s will offer the cute 100% natural cotton reuseable shopping bag for two days this weekend (April 26 - 27) for $3.95 with $1 of that going to the National Park Foundation.  The first 150 customers in each participating Macy’s will get a free one.
