There has been lots of talk over here on Belle Belle Beauty about a bold red lip for the holidays. While I am learning to embrace this trend, more often than not, you’ll find me with lined eyes and a neutral lip gloss. Today, I am going to give you the low down on my favorite eye routine.
Perhaps the most important sale I ever announce: Sephora’s winter sale (20% off for VIBs with code VIBTOPIA, 11/7 through 11/11)

Gotta love some makeup inspiration from an amazing makeup artist! Especially at the start of an killer makeup sale. This interview with Katy has my shopping list started. And my take on what you should invest in? My favorites:
Not a Sephora VIB? Beauty.com’s F&F sale is open to all with 20% off.
Got some fashion on your shopping list? Here are the best fall sales around:
It might not sound like a big deal, but keep in mind 2012’s color of the year, Tangerine Tango, was found all over runways, magazines and Main Street USA. Today, Pantone announced 2013’s color of the year: PANTONE® 17-5641 Emerald, a lively, radiant, lush green. To me, this brillant green conjures fertility, rebirth and freshness. “The perception of Emerald is sophisticated and luxurious. Since antiquity, this luminous, magnificent hue has been the color of beauty and new life in many cultures and religions. It’s also the color of growth, renewal and prosperity”.
While I don’t wear it much makeup-wise, I love it in my closet. Tracey Reese, Nanette Lepore, Barbara Tfank, NAHM and Marimekko all used Emerald into their spring collections. On our vanity, “Emerald dramatizes all eye colors as it beautifully enhances green eyes, is compatible to blue eyes, emphasizes the green undertone in hazel eyes and intensifies brown eyes to make them appear deeper.” I already can’t wait to pick up an eyeshadow to celebrate the shade. On nails, jewel tones are already the hot shades (check out Estee Lauder Viper).

In March, the SEPHORA + PANTONE UNIVERSE 2013 Color of the Year beauty collection featuring PANTONE 17-5641 Emerald will be available at Sephora. Past Colors of the Year include:

I love when fashion meets beauty. Lé Métier de Beauté’s paired with Marchesa back in 2010 and created the most lovely credit card sized palettes. Good things tend to come when these two words collide. So be on the look out next month for “Guerlain by Emilio Pucci”. The collaboration draws its inspiration from summertime in the Italian Riviera. The collection utilizes a signature print, revived from the archives: “Winter Capri”, a blue flower interlaced with swirls and flames. Included are the Terra Azzurra Bronzing Powder and Blush. The hybrid offers four shades of powder embossed with the Pucci motif. The are also making a Pucci version of the Météorites with a corrective blue pearl to create a flawless complexion.
Butter London (maker of some seriously fabulous polishes) just launched LIPPY by butter LONDON. This collection of lip glosses matches butter London’s most famous nail lacquers. This is a thicker formula with highly pigmented gloss. LIPPY does not contain parabens, petroleum, phthalates, sulphates, or bismuth. You can find them at Ulta for $17.
