Seriously, ever since the Breton top (yes, I’m talking about the striped tee) has become a fashionista wardrobe must, I keep seeing stripes everywhere, especially during the summer season! MAC cosmetics’ Summer 2012 “Hey, Sailor!” collection is perfect, in my opinion! And not just because I have a stripes obsession! So many sunkissed stripes! It’s a beauty must, this very summer, starting May 24 when the new MAC collection hits stores! Doesn’t it look adorable? (MAC via)

YSL Touche Eclat is certainly one of those revolutionary products that changed the industry forever. I’m not a makeup enthusiast but I’ll always have these three products in my makeup case: YSL Touche Eclat, a Lancome mascara and an eye khol.

Long story short: if you haven’t tried this already, my dahlings, it’s big time to do so! Especially since YSL added the YSL Touche Eclat liquid foundation to the line! (and if Jourdan Dunn and Ginta Lapina were photographed separately until now, the new ad campaign shows the two beauties together)

So if you’re a fan of Carine Roitfeld’s style, be sure to check your nearest M.A.C. counter for eyes & brows goodies this fall. Deeply involved in the developing of this limited edition collection, Carine Roitfeld is also the face of the ad campaign, below a teaser as released through wwd, photographed by Mario Sorrenti. Vogue was pretty much slowing you down, huh Carine?

And Dior is undoubtedly addictive. Extremely! So there’s no too much in this campaign, nothing looks forced or pushed too far, so I’m guessing it’ll be very successful. Kate can do no wrong, apparently: she’ll make even a disturbingly lackluster print ad campaign like this one work. (it does look like an amateur ad job, it’s not just me, right?)

Sephora joined Pantone for a makeup collection with eyeliner, lipsticks, eye shadow and even makeup brushes in the said color. It really sounds like a good marketing idea and the actual products look lovely. Not to mention that they’re tinted in the color of the year! (now available at Sephora with prices from $7 to $68). Have you tried the new Pantone Sephora collection? Will you give it a tint?

Lily signed up for The Body Shop’s “Beauty with Heart” ad campaign. Breaking globally from May 15, the campaign is all about cruelty – free makeup and fair trade, the main values guiding The Body Shop and Lily Cole’s upcoming collection with the brand. Not just a pretty face anymore, huh?

Absolue L’Extrait, Lancome’s miracle cream, contains Rose Stem Cells. 2 million of them. Stem cells have become the next medical heaven a while back, when their therapeutic value has been constantly highlighted since the 60s. In short, the stem cells are biological cells found in any living organism, taking care of the normal functioning of the entire system, also repairing and replenishing.

Rose stem cell actives contained in the new Lancome beauty elixir should reportedly enhance the natural barrier of the skin and protect it against external aggressions (such as UV and pollution), also should boosts the regeneration of the skin and increase its vitality. Sounds like the promise of eternal youth. And all that with just a small container of face cream. Working against time, do you think that’s really possible?

Judging by the look of the Nars Thakoon collection below, Nars Warhol is going to be at least twice as eye hurting! ahem… madly colored! The collection is expected for this Fall Winter 2012 and it’s said to have “innovative packaging, formulas and shades”. Pretty much like Warhol reinvented art, Nars is keen on reinventing makeup. With a little help from Warhol, biensur! (I’m so curious to see what kind of innovative formulas and shades they’ve come up with!)

Part of her Simply Vera Vera Wang collection from Kohl’s, the cosmetics are said to not just beautify your, but also to take care of your skin. With prices from $16,50 to $39,50, Simply Vera Vera Wang cosmetics range (which counts 74 items) can be considered simply successful (pretty much like anything else Vera).

(why? Because fashion is always about fashion, duh! Not about celebrity and certainly not about TV! If you hear someone saying that, know right from the start that he / she is a complete fashion snob. Now, back to Mad Men!) Estee Lauder isn’t going to let this golden financial opportunity slip so they jumped on the Mad Men fans bandwagon and put together a special Mad Men Makeup collection as illustrated by Constance Jablonski below: (hit the jump for more details about the collection! Don’t miss the behind – the – stage video!)

Remember we talked about a special wrist watch inspired by Don Draper? Well, Estee Lauder thought about the beautiful ladies who want that retro Mad Men look. With Lipstick in Cherry or Crème Rouge Evening Rose blush, the 60s touch is in your makeup case! There’s a second part to Estee Lauder’s Mad Men makeup collection which is scheduled for launch next year, in time for the sixth Mad Men season! (available online and though Estee Lauder carriers)
