NARS Summer 2011 Collection


 The Summer 2011 Collection is a range of warm, sophisticated, shimmering
shades, punctuated with shots of vivid, nature-defying color. Eyes are washed in
icy sea foam, silver-green and frozen turquoise. Lips are infused with mandarin
orange gloss and hot pink matte color. The look is finished with nails in bold
sunflower yellow or matte opaque white for a modern, edgy effect that's strictly NARS.

VERSUS: Selita or Cassie

"Surf Baby", MAC's Summer 2011 Collection


MAC is so prolific with their new lines: they've announced a whole new one for summer named Surf Baby.


The new line's (which is extensive - check out the whole thing in the image above) packaging is completely perfect for its name - the cool Hawaiian-surfer-style yellow, pink and white stripes which are striking in their difference to MAC's usual plain black packaging.

So, the products: the Surf Baby collection consists of beach friendly items like the waterproof Splashproof Lash Mascara, handy Skinsheen Bronzer Sticks and Suntints SPF 20 Liquid Lip Balm, which give a light sheen of colour along with some much needed protection.

In addition to these, there are also stacks of metallic pigments in two colourways, which I love - they give a really nice sheen of shimmering buildable colour, which you can wear sheer for the beach and layer up at night. Individual eyeshadow pots in five new shades and the pretty coral/gold hibiscus embossed blush, My Paradise Cheek Powder also feature in the collection, which will be available in stores May 26th.

Have You Heard: ARISE Magazine


ARISE is Africa’s first and foremost international style magazine. Highlighting African achievement in fashion, music, culture and politics, it provides a positive portrayal of the continent and its contribution to contemporary society across the world.


From cover stars including Naomi Campbell, Alek Wek and Alicia Keys to in-depth interviews with Denzel Washington, David Adjaye and Jay-Z, ARISE informs, incites and delights in equal measure. "ARISE breaks cultural and editorial boundaries with its mix of upfront news, exclusive interviews, reportage and luxury fashion stories," says Helen Jennings, editor of the high-end, large-format title. "I’m proud to say ARISE is like no other global glossy."


As part of ARISE’s ongoing commitment to highlighting African talent, it presents the first ARISE Magazine Fashion Week - Lagos 2011 this March. The landmark event will bring together 50 designers from Africa and the diaspora, and features shows and seminars as well as concerts by Estelle, Darey Art Alade, D’Banj and Tinie Tempah. AMFW culminates in the ARISE Magazine Fashion Awards, the winners of which will participate in the ARISE Magazine Fashion Gala on September 14 at New York Fashion Week.


After three successful seasons of ARISE African Fashion Collective at NYFW, plus sponsorship of Africa Fashion Week 2009 in Johannesburg, ARISE founder Nduka Obaigbena felt it was time ARISE launched its own pan-African event: "ARISE is already leading the way and, due to the unprecedented demand to showcase Africa’s finest designers, we’ve created our very own series of spectacular events. We’re showing the world that Africa is here to stay at the forefront of international fashion."


ARISE is published quarterly and sold in over 20 countries. It has established itself as a mainstream magazine for modern Africans, African-Americans and the diaspora, and through its newly relaunched website, Facebook and Twitter pages, ARISE continues to build a global community.
