Introducing Le Métier de Beauté’s Fall|Winter 2011 Collection: Silk Road

A Tribute to the Ancient Channel of Transport Where East Met West
Introducing Le Métier de Beauté’s Fall|Winter 2011 Collection: Silk Road


NEW YORK, June 2011 – For almost 3000 years, a vast network connected Eastern civilization to the outside world. Silk, satin, spices and jewels made the journey, connecting east and west, along what would become known as the “Silk Road.” As the Silk Road evolved, a true cultural exchange took place as ideas and knowledge changed hands. This fusion of culture and trade, of luxury and texture comes together in Le Métier de Beauté’s Fall|Winter 2011 Collection. Introducing Silk Road, a journey of discovery and luxurious sensuality.

“Silk Road” Kaleidoscope Eye Kit

Le Métier de Beauté’s new Fall|Winter 2011 Kaleidoscope Eye Kit transfixes with rich and opulent hues reminiscent of the luxe fabrics of an ancient world. A selection of four sumptuous shadows come together (from top to bottom):
 Tapestry – a shimmering, translucent plum
 Damask – a polished brass
 Ikat – a silk-matte pinot noir
 Brocade – a deep chocolate with sequined copper effervescence
Experience each jewel-toned hue through the previous hue, as all four pigments intertwine to create a prism for the ultimate color contrast with the wearer's eye shape and color. Using the Le Métier de Beauté signature eye shadow application technique, "Couches de Couleur" (the layering of color), each hue is selected to evoke one element in a sequence of crescendo: 1. Warm 2. Cool 3. Hot 4. Cold. The combination is famed for increasing the femininity of the eyes, while adding a dash of mystery.
Suggested retail price $95.00

“Empress” Kaleidoscope Lip Kit

 Imperial Silk – a pale pink for a nude base
 Plum Satin – a creamy plum for rich contrast
 Empress – a delicate mauve mixed with soft champagne

“East Meets West” Nail Lacquer Collection

The winding and impossibly distant channel of the Silk Road extended from as far as China to Indonesia, through Central Asia, the Arabian Peninsula and Egypt, until reaching Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean civilizations.
