M·A·C interprets a vivid fall colour collection in tones influenced by the spirit and style of a global wanderer. Translucent, buildable, Powder Blush adds glow. Eye Shadow Duos create brilliant, sultry effects punctuated with Fluidline. Classic Mattene Lipstick is revived for dramatic, dense colour that lasts for hours. Lipglass gets fresh flair in new shades, and Nail Lacquer in jewel tones and metallics extend the opulence to the tips of the fingers.

Conair ExtremeSteam Professional Hand Held Garment Steamer ($50) has a dual heat technology that provides faster, hotter steam for better results. Providing a dry concentrated steam it allows you to penetrate heavier fabrics and this steamer is effective on all types of fabrics, linens and drapes. The best part is it heats up in 60 seconds so you don’t have to wait long if you’re in a hurry. The water container holds enough water for up to 15 minutes of steam time. The steamer has a low and high temperature option with a built in trigger switch for constant steam. It also comes with 3 attachments: brush, creaser, and soft cushion bush making it easy to steam many different types of fabrics.
The lights on the back of the steamer will indicate when the steamer is ready for use. The orange light indicates that it is one and the green light will illuminate once the steamer is ready. Thick cotton takes a little longer for the steamer to completely dewrinkle but thin and soft fabrics unwrinkle as soon as you pass the steamer over it. I know this review isn’t very consistent with beauty related products but I was looking to buy a garment steamer and wanted to share my experience with this product. As usual Conair’s products never disappoint.

Too Faced Better Than False Lashes Nylon Lash Extension System ($35) is a three-step lash extension system that includes an activating mascara base and top coat and Flexistretch™ nylon lash fibers to create a 98% increase in lash volume and 42% increase in lash length.
The look of false lashes has never been easier or more affordable with this do-it-yourself system that’s an alternative to messy false lashes and expensive lash extensions. The activating mascara base and top coat is designed specifically to melt and seal the Flexistretch nylon fibers into long, thick, dramatic lashes without the risk, mess, or commitment of other false lash alternatives. Unlike traditional fiber mascaras, Better Than False Lashes allows you to dial up the lengthening fibers so you easily get better, longer, thicker, more dramatic lashes instantly.

Following the steps of other famous fashion designers like Burberry and Dolce & Gabanna you can fashion designer inspired cosmetic products. I expected the prices to be a little lower since most of Kohl’s’ cosmetics brands are not very pricey. The price ranges from $19 to $40 so you can still purchase a product that won’t break the bank. I believe Kohl’s has testers also so you will be able to try products before you buy them unlike drugstore brands.
M·A·C Cosmetics announced today a limited edition line of cosmetics with fashion visionary and muse Carine Roitfeld, to launch in Fall 2012. Carine collaborated on all creative aspects of the collection; package design, product names and colour palettes. The M·A·C Carine Roitfeld Collection features 20 pieces with a focus on eyes and brows that reflect Carine’s signature look: smoky eye, bold brows and nude lips.
A specially created Good Luck Star stencil makes its debut and can be seen in the collection image for which Carine was photographed by Mario Sorrenti. This marks the first time M·A·C has worked with the legendary photographer.
