Instead of simple sets of travel favorites we were overwhelmed by Halloween costumes. It turns out heading to Sephora was a much better idea even if we did end up spending a fortune to make sure we could avoid checking our favorite Laura Mercier, Frederic Fekkai and Ole Henriksen products http://www.coutorture.com/What-Beauty-We-Packed-South-Beach-2401587#comment Travel laura mercier South Beach Frederic Fekkai Ole Henriksen Thu, 23 Oct 2008 07:36:41 -0700 coutorture http://www.coutorture.com/What-Beauty-We-Packed-South-Beach-2401587 http://www.coutorture.com/Reviews-Cult-Cherry-Cherries-Noir-Beauty-Blogs-1920698 <a href="http://www.coutorture.com/Reviews-Cult-Cherry-Cherries-Noir-Beauty-Blogs-1920698"><img width=160 height=160 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/ons/191/1913634/36_2008/Picture_29.large.jpg'></div></a><p><span class="inline left" style="float: left"></span>Beauty copy can be a tangle of clichés as writers struggle to find fresh descriptions for minute changes. We almost wish the copy editors would give in and admit it! So when the ne plus ultra of beauty clichés, the cherry, came out in force this Fall the overbearing metaphor seemed almost charming. Its as if everyone agreed to say, eh, why force it? Everyone loves a deep cherry red lip so let's not struggle to call it anything but. Its the beauty copy equivalent of calling a spade a spade. And that refreshing honesty about the limits of descriptors somehow makes us that much covetous. Why strive to over market when we all know that we love it we suppose.</p> <p>And clearly our community feels the same way as <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/collections/collection.tmpl?ngextredir=1&amp;CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY27891" target="_blank">MAC's Cult of Cherries</a> and <a href="http://www.lauramercier.com/whatsnew.php?collection_id=58" target="_blank">Laura Mercier's Cherries Noir</a> are getting rave reviews. <span class="inline right" style="float: right"></span><a href="http://beauty411.typepad.com" target="_blank">Beauty 411</a> loves <a href="http://beauty411.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/08/laura-mercier-fall-2008-cherries-noir.html" target="_blank">Cherries Noir</a> for what we might call a sister cliché 40s Hollywood glamor. <a href="http://15minbeauty.blogspot.com" target="_blank">15 Minute Beauty Fanatic</a> goes right for the kisser with MAC's Cult of Cherry with <a href="http://15minbeauty.blogspot.com/2008/08/mac-cherry-lips.html" target="_blank">a cherry lips entry. </a> <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/" target="_blank">Temptalia</a> too goes for <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/look-cherrylicious-lips-and-cat-eyes" target="_blank">cherryliscious lips</a>. <a href="http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com" target="_blank">Makeup and Beauty Blog</a> continues the trend <a href="http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/cosmetics/all-aboard-the-cherry-train-with-laura-mercier-cherries-noir/" target="_blank">Mercier's Cherries Noir cherry lips. </a> And because it can't just be about the biggies, <a href="http://soloverly.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">So Loverly</a> found a <a href="http://soloverly.blogspot.com/2008/08/i-have-makeup-fairy-godmother.html" target="_blank">Silken Naturals Cherry Crush lipgloss. </a></p> <p><a href="http://www.viecouture.com/go-sweet-and-dark-with-mac-cult-of-cherry/"><br /> Vie Couture</a>, <a href="http://www.misscrew.com/blog/2008/08/27/mac-cult-of-cherry/" target="_blank">M.I.S.S Crew</a>, and <a href="http://nessasarymakeup.blogspot.com/2008/08/swatches-review-mac-cult-of-cherry.html" target="_blank">Nessasary Makeup</a> round up the coverage with general reviews. </p> http://www.coutorture.com/Reviews-Cult-Cherry-Cherries-Noir-Beauty-Blogs-1920698#comment Mac beauty bloggers 15 minute beauty fanatic cult of cherries laura mercier makeup and beauty blog shoutout temptalia Fri, 29 Aug 2008 08:19:32 -0700 coutorture http://www.coutorture.com/Reviews-Cult-Cherry-Cherries-Noir-Beauty-Blogs-1920698
