14 DAY TRIAL // When a sophisticated French cosmetics company and a world-famous supermodel team up, the outcome can only be a positive one for all the fans of good-quality makeup. In this case, we're talking about Lanc?me and prominent international top model of Ukrainian descent Daria Werbowy - who has created her own personal range of makeup for the French brand. "Brazilian Earth Colors" is a natural and sophisticated collection inspired by the immense natural beauty of Brazil and by a charity program run by Lanc?me in Rio de Janeiro - Centro Espacial Vik Muniz, a nonprofit program for at-risk teens, which focuses on art programs, education and training.
"Brazilian Earth Colors" boasts neutral, earthy tones inspired, in Daria's own words, by "fabrics, textures, landscapes, the natural beauty of Brazil in general... and of the kids" who attend the charity arts center. The colors range from browns to natural nudes and warm golds. The collection is made up of a limited edition mirrored eyeshadow compact luxuriously packaged and signed by Daria herself, which combines "great everyday shades, something everyone would want to wear", as the supermodel put it. This palette is the perfect tool for creating looks that range from everyday neutral to dramatic evening smokey eyes.
Also part of the collection are the Brazilian Earth Colors - Color Fever Lipstick, a luxurious neutral beige toffee splash of incredibly luminous, vibrant color, and Brazilian Earth Colors - Color Fever Gloss, a light, sheer neutral beige with no shimmer, which offers even coverage and contours your lips for a plump finish. Packed in sophisticated containers, the lipstick and lip gloss are as worthy and wise an investment as the eyeshadow quad, particularly since the entire collection is designed to benefit the Brazilian center, which helps young adults stay off the streets, out of gangs, and away from drugs.
