Get ‘Daring’ for Fall with Prescriptives
Fall collections are starting to pop up as we begin to countdown the last weeks of summer. With that, I have to admit that I’m really likin’ this model for Prescriptives’ Daring collection for fall. Doesn’t she look a lot like Cindy Crawford, one of my favorite supermodels from the late 80s and 90s?
This is definitely a trend that I’m noticing with this season’s makeup - a throw back to haute 80s makeup with deep browns emphasized on the eyes and early 90s matte (check out MAC’s Cult of Cherry coming soon!)
Prescriptives’ Daring dares you to go soft and neutral this season with touches of blue sapphires and violet amethysts accents. Don’t peep this collection without going home with this limited edition Fall Dimensions Cheeks & Eyes Palette ($35 US).
Although it says for Eyes, I personally think that the shades are too light to use as shadows. I definitely think this palette is more appropriate and would be wonderful as a highlighter for the face and cheeks. And in case you hadn’t noticed, the textured packaging makes this a must-have for the season!
If you live in the San Francisco area and want to nab one for yourself, enter for a chance to join my friends and I at The Daily Cookie’s one year anniversary party at Lavande Nail Spa on August 30th - one of these pretty palettes will be tucked away in the goodie bags that go home with each guest!

That palette looks yummy!! I love the texture of the case.

Hi Nikki,
I would love that too! Who’s your favorite supermodel of all time? I’ve always really liked Christy Turlington - she seems like an all-around pretty and down-to-earth lady.

Hi Audrie,
The packaging is my favorite thing about this! Aren’t we all just suckers for pretty things??
On August 11th, 2008 Nikki said:
Ohh Cristy Turlington is perfect! I’ve watched a show that says she’s got the PERFECT face parts..when you look at her eyes, nose , cheeks, lips, she’s like PERFECTION and a lot of mannequins in Europe uses her as a “MOLD” wow right?
I don’t have ultimate fave but I love Josie Maran too from Maybelline, but I guess she’s older now

I am in love with that purple color. Gotta have it!
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Nikki,
I didn’t know that there was a Christy Turlington mold! That’s kind of crazy!
Josie Maran is cute - have you tried her new makeup line yet?
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Leeann,
I love purples too, especially for fall. What are your favorite autumn colors to wear?
Hope your week is off to a great start!

No dear, we don’t have that collection here and I’m not sure if it’ll ever arrive here!
On August 12th, 2008 Andi said:
I love the colors on her eyes! I may have to give that a try for a night out this weekend!
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hey Nikki,
You need to come here to the States so that we can go on a makeup shopping spree!!!
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Andi,
Isn’t the pop of blue on her lower lashline beautiful? Do you wear blues or navy makeup often? I definitely need to sport it more

I…. NEED….THAT…. PURPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On August 12th, 2008 Phantom Goddess said:
Now that I think about it, what is the name of the purple eyeshadow?
On August 12th, 2008 Marisol said:
She totally looks like Cindy.
I like the dark blue liner she is using.

Hi Phantom Goddess,
Prescriptives’ fall collection has two colored eye pencils and their purple one is called Plum Sparks. Check it out!

On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Marisol,
I really love it too! Do you think you’ll pick it up?
On August 12th, 2008 Marisol said:
To be honest, I am not too sure. With the quads that MAC is coming out with, I am gonna be tapped out for beauty products. Are you?
On August 12th, 2008 Phantom Goddess said:
Thanks for the pencil, but I was hoping for the name of the purple eyeshadow that you have pictured. The middle picture of the purple/ black shadow. That’s what I want!
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Phantom Goddess,
I’m such a nut! I guess all this Olympics watching has got my head in the clouds. I just checked the palette and it doesn’t say what that pinky/purple shade is.
On August 12th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Marisol,
I think I might be able to pass on the blue pencil. But the plum, on the other hand might get adopted and come home with me!
On August 13th, 2008 Phantom Goddess said:
That sucks that the purple doesn’t have a name
Do you know which palette it came from, so when I go to the counter I know what I am looking for?
On August 13th, 2008 Lilan said:
Hi Phantom Goddess,
The palette featured is from Prescriptives and it’s available right now. It’s called Fall Dimensions Cheeks & Eyes Palette and should be on counters now!
Let me know if you find it!
