The Erdem for NARS Strange Flowers Collection is a 13-piece limited edition collection, that will no doubt sell out very quickly. Here are all the details of the pieces from the collection, which launched on May 3: The collection has 2 stunning eyeshadow palettes of highly pigmented, velvety-matte shades that deliver longwearing, crease-resistant color. These beautiful Erdem for NARS Lipsticks include 6 new shades, featuring a creamy, smooth formula that range from bare to bold, sheer to intense. The shades are (clockwise): Moon Orchid (sheer light pink), Voodoo Lily (sheer muted lavender), Carnal Carnation (sheer raspberry red), Wild Flower (deep plum purple), Larkspur (sheer orchid), and BloodFlower (bright cherry red).

I’ve seen the peeking through of a few wrinkles, I may or may not have some gray hairs, and my vision seems to be getting slightly more blurry with each passing year. As you may know, I’ve been working with IRIS for the last several years to promote the importance of eye health and protection. I was recently chatting with their team, and I mentioned (only half kidding) that I should be eating a lot more carrots to improve my vision. A big thank you to IRIS Visual Group for sponsoring this post, and for teaching me so much about eye care!

The collection is huge, but here are some of my fave kits: * MAC Snow Ball Face Bag (shown below): This kit includes cult favourite “Whisper of Gilt * MAC Snow Ball Mini Lipstick Kit: Truly a collector’s favourite, this kit includes 12 mini lipsticks, in beautiful colour-matched packaging. * YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick Dazzling Lights Edition: Available in 6 classic shades, this stunning lipstick is dazzled with pink fireworks. * YSL Palette De Maquillage Dazzling Lights Edition: A limited-edition palette with a rosy-pink highlighting powder, four smokey-eye inspired eyeshadows, and two satin lip colors.

Bare Minerals recently launched 3 coordinated collections of lippies: Statement Matte Liquid Lip Colours (10 shades); Statement Luxe Shine Lipsticks (10 shades); and Statement Under Over Lip Liners(5 shades). So you can understand my shock when I tried on the Bare Minerals Statement Matte Liquid Lip and it didn’t immediately suck all the moisture from my lips! It is still very much a matte lip, but I didn’t find it to be nearly as drying as every other matte lip I’ve tried. It did eventually dry out my lips as well, but right now, this is the only matte lip colour that I can wear.
