Retro Movie Wednesday: Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Shadow Palette (review)

It looks like the rest of my week is going to be a little rushed. But there’s always time for beauty. Especially if it’s a gorgeous new palette from Estée Lauder.

Bronze Goddess Island Oasis Eye Shadow Palette

Blurb: Shades of paradise. Highlight, define and dramatize your eyes with the shimmering metallics and sunlit satin shadows of summer. Luxurious compact contains 6 complementary shades to wear alone or together-the possibilities are endless.

This yummy, sun-drenched collection of colors is from the Bronze Goddess Soleil Summer Color 2011 Collection. The whole collection is warm, rich and exotic.

The colors in this palette are beautiful and flattering. It’s a range of warm bronzes, glowing golds, a shimmering dark lava (far left), and a pale pearly shade (far right) that reminds me of white sand beaches. My favorite, though, is the gorgeous aqua color. It reminds me of mermaids. Sigh.

Visit the website and check out the whole Summer 2011 Collection. I also recommend playing with the colors on the Virtual Makeup Tool. Estée Lauder is also available in fine department stores.

And since I’m talking about eye candy…how about the photo shoot scene from “Eyes of Laura Mars?” This movie had fashion, danger, mystery and Faye Dunaway (not to mention Tommy Lee Jones looking all studly and earnest).
