Dolce & Gabbana Shimmer Glow Makeup
February 6, 2015 Dolce & Gabbana is known for refined, elegant makeup and their limited edition Shimmer Glow 2015 winter collection is without exception.
The Smooth Eye Colour Quad in Smokey Eyes Dust 103 ($60) is so velvety soft. This palette contains shades of gold, silver, dark grey and black. The silver and grey remind me of their Romance eyeshadow duo. This is seriously one of the easiest palettes to use for creating smoky eyes. It's literally a smoky eye kit for dummies.
For extra bling, the Shimmer Powder ($36) has a gel-cream texture that you can layer over blush, eyeshadow, or under the brow arch area. A tiny little dab is more than enough to create the effect. Less is more in this instance. I kinda wish this was released with their previous holiday collection as it would have been fun to use for parties.
Four shades of the Shimmer Lip Shine Lipstick ($37) complement the smoky eyeshadow. Angel Rose 167 is my favorite — the pale pink has a semi-frosty finish. The other three colors are designed to layer over your favorite lipstick. Moon 69 is a delicate silver while Crystal 46 is a sheer platinum. Shimmer Nude 48 gives a light wash of pale gold. Both Crystal and Shimmer Nude seem to feel slightly more creamy and opaque than the other two. Each lipstick tube is also adorned with an iconic D&G Sicilian Jewels stone. The Crystal shade features a Swarovski crystal.

Last, but not least, the Intense Nail Lacquer line has a new pearlescent silver addition (Pearl Shimmer 805; $25).
