Estee Lauder’s Make-up Collection for Spring 2012 is called Topaz and the color palette of the cosmetics have been inspired by the desert state of Arizona. The entire collection was created by Tom Pecheuz. There is a lot of earth sand-like and aqua hues that have been incorporated in the palette to lend a very fresh and subtle look for spring next year.
Tom Pecheux, the makeup creative director at Estee Lauder was desirous of using nature as the main theme of the 2012 makeup collection and for this he was inspired by the state of Arizona and its plentiful blue and sandy hues. Here is a look at what the Topaz 2012 makeup collection by Estee Lauder holds for you.
Estee Lauder Spring 2012 makeup collection highlights
The Estee Lauder Spring 2012 Topaz makeup collection has a distinct combination blue/ aqua teal hues and sandy beige hues – much like the sand and aqua that dominate the topographical features of Arizona. Tom Pecheux has tried to give a more natural look this summer with the soothing sand and aqua color palette – giving makeup a hint of nature!
The topaz blue nail color and eyeliner are some of the highlights of the 2012 Estee Lauder spring collection which are invariably contrasted with the lipsticks and eyeshadow for which a very earthy brown and nude palette has been used.
This collection also has the amazing Pure Color Five Color EyeShadow Palette in Topaz Mosaic that has many summery shades of coral and yellow, apart from the sand and beige tones.
The collection also features eye crayons in teal and black called the Pure Color Intense Kajal Eye Crayon as well as a Sumptuous Extreme Mascara.
The Pure Color Sensuous Rouge Lip Color would also come in the sandy hues of Sublime Nectar, Sensuous Nude and Sultry Caramel in a very velvety texture. There is also the Pure Color Gloss Citron Kiss that would give summery sheen to your lips with a gold glittery color.
The bronze-hued Pure Color Illuminating Powder Gelée in Topaz Chameleon would give your skin the perfect tanned glow for the summer.
The collection also has shades of natural yellows and sandy hues for the range of Pure Color Nail Lacquer for making a striking style statement for your nails.
What clicks for the collection
The best part about the Estee Lauder Spring 2012 Topaz makeup collection is the fact that Tom Pecheux has taken very simple and naturally contrasting elements in his palette – the water and the earth. These two colors in their various hues have added an element of raw appeal to the makeup, apart from the fact that these two colors will add more freshness to the collection. Blue in all its hues, has a very sensuous appeal when used around the eyes and is also a very fashionable nail color too. The balance is made very well by using both the colors in the right places in the correct place to even out the look, rather than make it look over the top.
The StyleGuru verdict
The Estee Lauder Spring 2012 makeup collection will definitely prove to be very trendy with the color palette that has been very interestingly and carefully chosen. The balance between the blues and the beiges is perfect because in order to balance the vibrancy of the blue, the sandy hues of the lipstick will give a nude and raw look to the face which would look very appealing! The bronzer is an add on which will enhance the summer look, and the eye crayons and mascara will definitely put the focus on the heavily done up eyes with the lips forming the complete foil. The Spring look for 2012 by Estee Lauder will definitely prove to be very impressive with blue and beige!
