Chocolate Power: Estee Lauder

In all the chaos of a myriad of make up looks going on this season – goth glam, nudes, red lips, black lips, purple lips and more – good old brown has been horribly neglected. But, there is nothing as delicious as chocolately lids trimmed with deepest black lashes for a very sultry, autumn-esq appearance. Tired old ‘berry’ shades are just an inevitability at this time of year in the beauty world, while the varied intensity of velvety browns are far more appealing. I like this palette from Estee Lauder with four shades in the brown spectrum to create rich and decadent or subtle fusions.
