Estee Lauder’s color trend for 2013: Naughty but nice and sexy

MANILA, Philippines - Estee Lauder introduces a deceptively sensual limited-edition trend collection for 2013: Pure Color Pretty Naughty. Optimistic yet not overly sweet, the world of watercolor pastels is taken to new heights by infusing an urban synthetic vibe for a youthful and modern twist.

“I wanted to create a collection for the woman who is sexy yet romantic. Pretty Naughty is very pastel, but also a little naughty in a gentle, discreet way,” says Tom Pecheux, creative makeup director, Estée Lauder.

Eyes are washed in a flight of fanciful soft tones and lined in discreet flashes of dark pigments to create dramatic emphasis and contrast, while cheeks are flushed with a tint of color for a naturally innocent and glowing finish. Lips are softly touched by vividly sheer shades in satin textures and nails complete the look with a sultry new interpretation of lilac.

Estee Lauder’s Pure Color Pretty Naughty will be available at Rustan’s Makati and Rustan’s Shangri-La.

Simply MAC-nificent: MAC tells the story of contemporary femininity that’s uncompromisingly modern.

’Tis the season for simplicity, says MAC

MAC declares ’tis the season when the key beauty notion is one of simplicity with a forward-thinking freshness to it.

This is to be found in the purity of a perfectly pared back skin. A languid wash of color that takes in shades of highly pigmented pastels. A monochromatic Bedouin bronze, blurred on the eyes and bone structure. An easy graphicism of purist color blocked on lids or lips.

MAC is available at Rustan’s.
