Bee Luscious Fall 2009

Considering I've spent a lovely afternoon out in the garden, enjoying some ice cold cider, you'd never guess it was the time of year for the Autumn/Fall collections to start being released. The Fall collection has been up for a few weeks over at Bee Luscious and I've been drooling over it for just as long! I was quite excited to find a box of Fall goodies sat waiting for me on Thursday!

Before I get on with the pictures, I just want to give out a discount code the folk at Bee Luscious have been kind enough to set up for you! I mentioned that I would be featuring the items in my blogtv broadcast last night and a special discount was set up for the viewers. To save 25% on anything on the site, use the code:

Just as I typed, no capitals. It's good until tomorrow.


So, here is everything!

Fall collections are my favourites. I adore the rich textures and colours that are used. Rich golds, coppers and purples feature heavily this year which just create a delicious colour palette!

-Mineral Sheer Veil "Champagne" - This is a pale creamy liquid with golden shimmer. This can be applied to give a strong shimmer or really sheered out. I'm looking forward to trying this as a cheek highlight.
-Mineral Gemstone Finishing Powder "Corrector" - This contains 4 different shades of powder. You can blend them together to apply over the face or concentrate on specific areas. I'd use the yellow under the eyes and the green to conceal redness, for example.
-Mineral Gemstone Shadow "Rose Gold" & "Blue Sapphire" - The "Rose Gold" is a very pretty shade which is going to look fab with purples. The "Blue Sapphire" really jumps out at me though, it's rich and dramatic. Hmm, I've had a request for a smokey blue look. Maybe I'll use this.
-Signature Shadow Quad "Nouveau Riche" - Four eye shadow colours to create a Fall look. This one really reminds me of the changing colours of trees at this time of year.
-Liquid Lustre "Pink Champagne" - Strongly pigmented and really glossy. This gloss has a brush, rather than a doe-foot applicator which proved to interest some over on blogtv last night. I've worn this and the lasting power is pretty decent.
-Liquiliners "Cognac", "Blueberry Fizz", "Sterling" - I'll be featuring these on their own in another blog post. I'm loving "Cognac" especially.


And, finally, the Fall 2009 palette!! This is what I've been waiting to use since it appeared on the Bee Luscious website! It was a massive hit on blogtv last night, I've had quite a few requests to do some videos with it.

  3. I ordered some bits from Bee Royal and they're nice but there's no way they were worth the price, especially given their distinct lack of customer service!
