I spotted the main Maybelline Fashion Week display at my local Rite Aid (please click here to see what the full displays look like) and as luck would have it, my pal Jess also spotted this display and was kind enough to share some pics as well (including pics of the items she purchased). I think we've got everything covered now, in case you haven't spotted these goodies in your area yet!

I think that covers it! I hope this helps those of you who are on the lookout for this collection. I wanted to give you a better idea of what's available, and I never could have done it without the help of Jess, beautifulmonday and Kallie, who have all contributed photos to these posts. Thanks SO much, ladies!
Have you spotted/purchased anything from the Maybelline Fashion Week Fall 2011 collection yet? Any favorites or must-haves?
I got three of the eye quads and then a couple of the duo chrome nail polishes that were in the other display....oh and four color sensational lipsticks in yet another display. Fred Meyer must have had six independent Maybelline displays last night.
ReplyDeleteGot the pink blush today-- gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! The mauve lipstick is to die for!!
ReplyDeleteThere isn't a fourth blush? Did they just double up on one of the colors in the display?
ReplyDeleteI am dying to get the two gel liners! I love the black one that I already have, the eggplant/purple is okay. It's not as pigmented so I have to go over the line at least twice and usually three times for a nice bold look, but for daytime you'd want a less harsh line anyway, so I'm not all that disappointed and willing to give that lovely green and blue a try.
Just a heads up for those who might be interested in Designer Pink (like I was!), it is gritty in texture and frosty in finish - and it made me look like a corpse! I'm usually a major nude lip lover, but this was awful. Beige Bombshell read very brown on my lips as well (I'm NW15/20 for reference). I was disappointed! The Forest liner is GORGEOUS, though! A blackened teal green - love!!
ReplyDeletemakeover mocha looks similar to naked and buck from the naked palette
ReplyDeleteI just purchased the blushes and they are so pretty! There is a ton of sparkle, but not overwhelming! This is a great collection.
ReplyDeleteI purchased ravishing rouge[blush], beige bombshell[lipstick] and forrest[eyeliner] I absolutely LOVE all of them and can't wait to get more tonight. The walgreens by my church is the only place I've been able to find this collection (:
ReplyDeleteOOO, I must pick up that gel liner in Sapphire!
ReplyDeleteI purchased bombshell beige lipstick and green with fashion eye quad a couple of weeks ago. I wear the lipstick with a gloss, I'm an nc44 in MAC. I've tried the quad and it's not that bad. I found the items at my local Rite-Aid.
ReplyDeleteSaw these at Rite Aid couple days ago and will go back for the blushes and highlighter, and definitely that mauve lippie! I already had the Forest liner that I got from a LE display at Walgreens a few months ago and haven't seen since so glad it's back. It's amazing- way better than the purple which I found less pigmented too, love it. Still looking for a good purple gel liner though, oh well.
ReplyDeletep.s yes, they doubled up the red blush; there are only three that I saw, At least that's how the display was labeled and set up in my store.
ReplyDeleteI personally love "Natural Beauty"! It's very much like San-Tan-Tonio by OPI, IMO.
ReplyDeleteI haven't found swatches yet, but perhaps I'll dip my toes in the nail polish blog-o-sphere and post swatches of my own :)
I think i want the pink blush and the makeover mocha quad and the mauve lipstick. SO pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks Steff. It's odd to me that they didn't come up with four shades of blush for four slots in the display, unless they expect that red blush to be the big seller, maybe?
ReplyDeleteI still haven't come across this display anywhere near me and getting a little nervous that my rite aid and walgreens never will. I want those liners! Also I may want those blushes, will have to go check around for swatches reviews. Maybelline can be hit or miss with their blushes but it sounds like this time they got it right.
I got the "Strut It Suede" quad. It has beautiful shades of brown, some are matte some are sparkly. It looks like the perfect colors for fall. I also am just getting into Maybelline silk eye shadows and their color explosion collection. They are supposed to be just like Asian makeup, which makes it different than the average drugstore eyeshadow. I'm into it now. xD
