Have you ever noticed how often the word “blue” turns up in song titles? Sitting down to play with Lancome’s Declaring Indigo collection,The Smashbox Masquerade Collection Unleashes a Sultry, Smoldering Makeup Fantasy for Fall 2010, I thought of New Order’s Blue Monday and When the Stars Go Blue,Cheap Jerseys,How to Look Your BEST in Pictures, by Ryan Adams.
Lancome’s new collection is blue beauty booty for eyes and nails. So far I’ve tested three pieces from the release.
Ink Artliner in Indigo Charm and Virtuose Mascara in Royal Blue
Yesterday I fell hard for Les Vernis nail polish in Indigo Paris ($18).
It had me at bonjour!
And today,Coach Outlet, Ink Artliner in Indigo Charm ($24) and Virtuose Mascara in Royal Blue ($25) ran away with my heart.
Ink Artliner in Indigo Charm ($24) is captivating in her shimmery, intensely pigmented indigo blue. A gel liner that doesn’t budge for nuthin’, she stays on my lids all day long without smudging,coach handbags outlet sale, and I think she totes makes brown eyes *pop*.
The thick, semi-wet formula — easy to apply and control — should also be great for gel liner neophytes and lazy girls (like moi). Makeup and Beauty Blog Rating: A+
Virtuose Mascara in Royal Blue ($25) nearly blinded me with bling when I first laid eyes on her. A dark blue mascara with golden glitter, this baby curls, lengthens and defines lashes like nobody’s bidness.
It looks a little scary in the tube, but no worries — she’s completely wearable. The shade applies as a subtle dark blue with teeny pieces of golden glitter — enough for just a hint of sparkle — so you don’t have to worry about looking like one of the Solid Gold Dancers circa 1981.

I think Lancome stands out with this release. Shades of gray are making big splashes over at Chanel and Dior this fall, but Lancome veers into almost summery territory with Declaring Indigo’s palette of deep blues, bronzes,coach handbags outlet stores, golds and browns. It’s different, and from what I’ve seen so far, I like. 
Let me know what you think.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
