MAC Cosmetics has caught our attention once again with an upcoming denim-inspired collection called Jeanius.

Launching in March, the jean-dream line-up features eyeshadows, Lipglasses, lipsticks, nail polishes, blush, a Penultimate Brow Maker, and a Penultimate Eye Liner.

But it’s the eyeshadow compacts that really have us excited: the shimmering shades come in modern, fresh hues and feature an adorable jean button design.

And we can’t wait to get the “Bike Blue” nail lacquer on our fingertips. The shade is just dark enough to go with everything — just like your favorite pair of jeans.

MAC Jeanius Collection is set to hit beauty counters in the U.S. March 3.

Wonder Woman is swooping in to save you from plain Jane beauty fate.

DC Comics’ most iconic heroine of all time is teaming up with MAC Cosmetics for a Spring 2011 makeup collection inspired by Wonder Woman’s blue, red and gold bustier leotard, her cunning super power-meets-glamazon charms, and a strong punch of what the beauty brand is calling her “kick-sass” girl power.

You’ll get more pretty for your penny with this collection, as must-haves like the berry-toned lipglasses, metallic shimmer pigment powders and mineralize skinfinish compacts will all come in oversized packaging meant to mimic the larger-than-life heroine’s taste for all things big.

(Ad visuals show our favorite lady’s bustline and raven locks aren’t left out of that Texas-like bigger-is-better equation. Take that, She-Ra!)

Metallic makeup pouches and clever “tool belts” come equipped with limited-edition blue short-handled makeup brushes, because you’ll need to powder your nose and touch up that sexy eyeliner smudge in between your bad guy slaying kicks and inter-galactic battles.

The inspiration behind the creative partnership came from a distinct type of feminine energy that experts say you’ll see more of come springtime.

MAC Peacocky hit counters this past week, and in addition to providing us with a new adjective, the collection features two brand-new products: Kissable Lipcolour and Mega Metal Shadow.

Arrogance or elegance? The showy display, the undeniably sexual spectacle, the iridescent irreverence…it’s awe-inspiring. We fetishize the exotic peacock as a symbol of extreme beauty, an act of elaborate nature, raging against everything simplistic. Peacocky fans out in a foray of intense colour for Lips and Eyes, exotic and sophisticated with a touch of ’30s F. Scott Fitzgerald glamour and mesmerizing metallic sheen. Dramatic doesn’t even begin to describe the girl who knows she’s Peacocky.

NARS Holiday 2010: Okinawa Trio Eyeshadow

NARS Okinawa Trio Eyeshadow ($45.00 for 0.17 oz.) contains three shades: (as described by NARS) silver, deep cobalt blue, and black onyx. According to Sephora’s description of this trio, the eyeshadows can be used wet to double as eyeliners.

The colors included in the trio are not unique, but they have a beautiful, smooth texture and rich, intense pigmentation that glides on with ease. There is a light silver-white with a frosted finish, medium-dark blue with subtle shimmer-sheen, and a medium-dark black with a satin sheen. These felt smoother and softer than the average NARS eyeshadow.

The silver has the largest portion, while the blue is about half the size and the black a third. It makes sense to have the black be such a thin strip, since you really do not need much black in most looks, but it may be too thin for those who use bigger brushes (say the MAC 252). It’s not a major drawback, as most eyeshadow brushes should be able to maneuver in there, but it was worth noting.

I’m not sure why this is a whopping $45, which is rather killer for a product like this, even for high end. A NARS Eyeshadow Duo contains 0.14 oz. of product and retails for $32, which makes the trio more per ounce (but a better value than the single eyeshadows). The quality is phenomenal, though!
