There’s something lovely about a brand that works in conjunction with another expert to create a signature range. Michael Kors’ new collection at Estee Lauder is just that. Lovely.
Its a gentle collection of springlike summery colours, with soft taupes and baby pinks, with a smattering of glamorous pinks and corals thrown in.
With a Hollywood, glamorous theme thrown in, with names ranging from Starlet Peach, Sunset Coral, Hollywood Gold to Bungalow Pink, it’s effortless to feel old school Hollywood glamour in these.
What is a given, as far as Estee Lauder is concerned, and really doesn’t need mentioning (though I will, incase you’re a novice to the ways of the Estee Way!), is that the quality is outstanding. The eyeshadows really don’t crumble, and there’s little fallout. The colours are pretty true, and certainly buildable.
The cheek colours make you look healthy, not as though you’ve stepped out of 1983, and the lipcolours are soft and gentle, and don’t bleed!
In all, its a gentle glamorous collection overall, with a few splashes of colour thrown in for those who like to ‘pop’ with their makeup.
