Lately, I find myself thinking this obsession with makeup has to end… But, with Christmas rapidly approaching and all the different, gorgeous holiday makeup collections popping up in stores like mushrooms… well, I don’t really think it will – at least not anytime soon.

Following my Guerlain “Crazy Paris” fascination (around the beginning of the month) and my (very recent) Burberry Gold Collection fancy, I am now head over heels in love with the upcoming “Old Hollywood” make-up offering by Bobbi Brown.

With prices ranging from $18- $75 the collection features:

– A limited edition eye palette with nine (eye-catching!) eye- shadows (creamy white, pinky beige sparkle, champagne sparkle, light grey sparkle, dark heather grey, tan beige, brown sparkle, creamy beige shimmer and dark grey)
– Three Long Wear Cream Shadow Sticks (in Tuxedo Black & -limited edition- 24 Karat and Bronze shades)
– Four lip glosses (Siren Red and -high shimmer Candlelight, Rose and Pure Gold)
– A classic ink liner (in Blackest Black)
– Four, gorgeous, nail polishes (2 plain ones, in Siren Red & Tuxedo Black and two glitter ones, in Chrome and Solid Gold) and
– One statement lip color with a matte finish (in Hollywood Red)

As always, affording the whole collection would be rad but is (realistically) impossible – which means I’ll have to settle for a couple of things, at most. With that in mind, I think I will go for the eye palette and the amazing Chrome nail polish.

For those of us who cannot wait until the collection hits beauty counters in Greece (note that I could not find an official date and that the Bobbi Brown Greece page on FB has the collection down as “coming soon”), there’s always Nordstrom which carries Bobbi Brown and currently stocks the full collection.
