Top Shop To Launch Cosmetics Line

(Top Shop Core Line)

Everyone’s favorite store is launching it’s own cosmetics line. In May, the full lineup is slated to launch in Topshop’s top 30 doors, including its U.S. outpost, and on the retailer’s Web site. The core collection is 97 stockkeeping units strong and is designed to mix whimsical design with bold color. Pencil-like doodles decorate putty-colored packaging and the black outer carton features an illustration of the product inside, designed by Sarah Thorne, Topshop graphic and packaging designer. “It’s playful, almost like the Topshop girl drew it herself,” said Lizzie Dawson, a Topshop designer who led the line’s in-house development. Topshop tapped Intercos to manufacture the products. Topshop plans to augment the core line four to six times a year with the trend range, a collection of about 16 items, that Homer described as, “more adventurous.”

Tarina Tarantino

The famed jewelery designer from LA has now officially launched her cosmetics line, available exclusively at Sephora. This highly anticipated line is packed with full lashes and bright lips. I love how the cosmetics are packed in bedazzled cases. The whole line is very whimsical, and even features a reasonably priced 5 piece brush set ($69). The lipsticks are bold, the eye shadows are bright, and the lip gloss is passionately pink. I’m putting the Sparklicity Shimmer Dust on my makeup wish list! The shimmer dust gives your skin a light, sparkly glow (and you all know by now how much I love glowing skin). You can even use it on your hair for a playful touch! I especially love the packaging, the dust can be yours for 39 smackeroos. Make sure you head over to Sephora and get a look at the entire collection!
