The coming of Fall means so many great things. The ability to wear deeper, richer shades and the return of Fall tv programming stick out most in my mind. Season 3 is about to begin and I'm pretty sure most of us are still having Gossip Girl fever. So many trends can find their roots in the fictional Upper East Side landscape that it can almost feel like Gossip Girl fever year round. When I saw the design of Smashbox's Fall 2009 collection, entitled Reign, my first thought was "Gossip Girl!". The burgundy leather, the embossed crest all feel so very regal.
The Fusion blush in Regal is a delightful warm peach shade, with one matte side and one shimmer side for highlighting. These shades are perfect for those days when Autumn's warm colors are all you can think about.
The Eyeshadow Palette in Monarch is a great collection of neutrals. Holding 6 shadows in total, each duo is combined within a circle. The center color can range in texture from matte to a soft sheen, while the outer colors are fiercely metallic.
The Reign Lash DNA Mascara in Plum is a perfect addition to this collection, as purple is the signifying color of royalty. Lash DNA utilizes a large, spiral set brush for maximum effect. The Plum shade is a metallic red-plum, straying it away from the traditional purple shades.
The Reign Fall 2009 Collection was selected to be a part of The Plaza Beauty by Warren Tricomi. Each product was selected for it's place as an essential beauty luxury by Joel Warren and Edward Tricomi. Set in The Plaza Hotel, it's no wonder The Reign was selected. The visitors who stay at The Plaza are known for their "impeccable taste". Other brands fortunate to be selected to take part in this curated shopping experience include Dianne Brill, Korres, M Lab Skincare, Becca Cosmetics, Tocca and of course Warren Tricomi products. The Plaza Hotel is located on the corner of 5th Avenue and Central Park in NYC.
