Diet coke have recently joined with Nails Inc to bring us the limited edition Diet Coke Catwalk Collection down at Boots!

There's 4 polishes in the collection, so there's bound to be a shade you will love. 

 Shades avaliable are 

• Heather grey - a really nice pinky mauve (my fave!) 
• Delicious denim -a rich, deep blue (this ones on my list to get tomorrow!)
• Caramel - a stylish, sophisticated caramel shade
• Perfect plum - a rich purple with red tones

The promo pics don't do the colours any justice, but beautybutton's pictures are the best indicators of the real colours

(L-R caramel, perfect plum, delicious denim, heather grey)

And for those more snotty people, the diet coke sticker can be removed. It was the first thing I did! Haha!

Best makeup from Milan Spring 2011 shows

Allure made an article back in september summarising the makeup styles used in the recent spring 2011 show in Milan. 

Let's take a look at the fashion forecast for spring, shall we?

1. Romantic makeup at Dolce & Gabbana: With the nearly all-white clothing lineup, the bride-who's-run-away makeup concept was pretty and fresh and sensual. Makeup artist Pat McGrath wet and then lined the lashes with the deep brown and medium-toned mauve-y brown shadows from Dolce & Gabbana's Eye Shadow Quad in Nude. She drew a beige liner along the inner rims of the eyes to make them look larger, and finished with a few false lashes on the outer corners. On the mouth, she pressed on a red or raspberry lipstick with her finger to make a "light stain," and on the cheeks, she dusted pretty pink blush.

2. Magenta lips at Jil Sander: Obsession! The vivid magenta lips were, as makeup artist Peter Philips put it, "shocking"—in a very good way. He mixed a white pigment with a bluish pink lipstick to create the color, which looked strong and bold but somehow pure, since Philips left the rest of the face mostly bare.

3. Pale green eyes at Alberta Ferretti: Green shadow is usually on the makeup "don'ts" list, but makeup artist Lucia Pieroni made it work. To get the models to look like woodland fairies, she applied a golden leafy green shadow on the lids and along the lower lashes. Paired with soft pink-beige lipstick and slightly frizzed hair, the effect was ethereal.

4. Red lips and nails at Gucci: There's little else in the makeup world that says "power" quite like high-shine red lips and nails. (Check out the look backstage at Gucci, above.) "We looked at the rich colors in the collection, and that's where we took the idea for the lip. It's the new, modern, sophisticated seductress,” said McGrath. She used a mix of two orange-y red lipsticks and topped it with gloss. The nails were polished in a matching red shade.

5. Silver lids at Prada: The super-reflective silver shadow, applied from lashes to brows, is definitely a look—and not one for everyday. But it's inspiring, and we find the idea of a shiny shadow (and nothing on cheeks or lips) really appealing. "We wanted the models to look glamorous with an androgynous face," said McGrath, who used a theatrical silver powder that was so glossy, it looked like a liquid.

Dolce & Gabbana Secret Garden

 

Smooth eye colour Quad in Eden 157 (£35)

The pictures for the newest collection for Dolce and Gabbana's cosmetic line has been released. Its a 12 piece collection, and features stuff for eyes, nails and lips. The distinctive bright colours bring around the feeling of spring.

We've always been inspired by the lush gardens so unique to Sicily; they're like a secret paradise.  The aura of romance - the intoxicating wild flowers, the soft pastels - is such an integral part of our heritage and our aesthetic. – Stefano Gabbana

Eyes play a main role in this collection, with bright, bold colours in the quads. Bold lip colours and striking eyeliners add to the overall seductress and playful image.

I'm not a fan of wearing bright colours on the eyes, I prefer the browns and blacks opposed to the pastel colours, as they can look a bit tacky. But despite there being a wide use of bold and bright colour it still maintains the signature classy look, with the rich gold casing and the whole luxurious appearance of the collection.

Crayon Intense eyeliner in White or Lilac (£16)

 

Shine lipstick in Love or Romance (£20)

 

Smooth eye colour Duo in Romance £22)

 

Intense Nail Lacquer in Platinum (£16)
