Yves Saint Laurent Holiday Collection 2011

Palette Terriblement Noir: 5 Colour Eye Shadow ($65)

About: Yves Saint Laurent revolutionized women's fashion in 1966 when he created “Le Smoking,” the tuxedo suit for women. Taking inspiration from the iconic design, this limited edition eye palette uses one of the most emblematic symbols, the satin cumberbund while playing with the most sophisticated of blacks and white.  Each shade expresses a different texture, representing the beautiful fabrics used by the Yves Saint Laurent Couture House, Shiny Silk, Matte Velvet, Sparkling Moiré, Glittering Lamé and Creamy Satin.  Dress yourself in the textures of Yves Saint Laurent and create the most sophisticated, couture smokey eye.

Sparkling 24 carat gold flecks (0.2%) create a mirror-like effect for guaranteed glamour, while a complex of nourishing oils protect and hydrate for optimal comfort. Scented with a subtle hint of Mango that’s utterly irresistible.
