Walking into their Chelsea space in NYC made my mouth water. All I could see was color, tables upon tables of lipstick, eye shadow, face powder, nail polish, etc. in almost every color, plus this holographic-like lip gloss that made my heart beat even faster. If you are a beauty lover like I am you totally understand what I mean. Inglot cosmetics are now in Macy’s Herald Square, with another free standing store location, but, my beauty crystal ball tells me Inglot is going to be a huge success, with plenty more stores to come.

All products are created in Poland, with the exception of the brush kits, and I felt there wasn’t a targeted audience missed when perusing the isles of the brand. They distribute all over the world, so I consider Macy’s a very wonderful client for them and wonder if there shall be more department store locations in their future? They are located in over 280 retail locations worldwide and have been around for over twenty-five years, yet they are just becoming better known here in the United States.

 Inglot is known for its Freedom System — allowing the client to CHOOSE their own eye, lip, eyebrow and face palette. They are paraben-free formulas and come in such a variety of colors that naming shades would take me hours. They also carry a line of O2M Breathable Nail Polish where it’s explained that the formula allows your nails to breathe and grow even though they are polished. Nail Art is available as well with super small brushes for the inner nail artist in you. They have face blush, duo blush compacts, body glitter, face illuminators, and much more.

I will soon follow-up with more information as I try more and more products from their line. I just had to share this incredible find with you, my in-the-know Beautystat readers.

You can shop online in the meanwhile at www.inglotusa.com.

Embrace a little of the jungle and prowl the sidewalks this autumn with the brand’s inspiration by Dior’s muse, Mitzah Bricard. Focusing on her love of leopard print, this set features three new products, but just like the rare leopard itself, it’s limited edition and sure to disappear quickly.

The gleaming numbered palette containing the leopard spotted eye shadow features shades that are meant to blend together for a seamless look. The Camel shade is meant as a lid color, and can be applied along lower lash line as well. Next, apply the darkest shade, Ebony along the crease, and along upper lashline, softly blur shades so that it melds together with the camel shade. Lastly, apply the Nude shade along browbone, and inner corner of eye ($90).

We are loving the two nail shades that are included in this collection. Ebony (912), a milky chocolate, and Camel (622), a delicious nude. Remember our earlier predictions where we showed “half moon” tips?  This shade would be perfect for light nails with darker tips. A retro 1940′s feeling, that makes us purr ($22).

There is also matching Diorshow Mascara in Golden Brown ($24.50) and a stamped 5 color Eye Shadow in Mitzah as well that retails for $60.

This will hit counters in September 2011 at Dior.com and Sephora.
Are you a fan of leopard print? Will you be spotted wearing these shades this fall? We can see this as a nice pairing to the Blue Tie collection.

CND's "Urban Oasis" with a layer of "Teal Sparkle" on top

For Fall/Winter 2010, CND has released the Night Factory Look, a pairing of Urban Oasis, a smooth blue-green, and Teal Sparkle, a opalescent disco ball in a bottle. Wear the denim-inspired Urban Oasis alone, recapturing the look at Malandrino’s Fall 2010 show, or lay down a coat of Teal Sparkle for a dose of femininity to balance a military style, as they did at L.A.M.B. Either way, if you’re looking for a little low-commitment trendiness, CND has got your answer in neat little hold-all package.

Well, say hello to CND’s Shellac, the first Hybrid Nail Color. This product applies like polish, and stays on beautifully for as long as 14 days. SERIOUSLY! 14 days, which makes it perhaps the longest lasting polish on the planet, unless the martians have discovered one themselves.

The shellac paints on like real polish, and has a base coat and a top coat that cures in a UV light setting so that there is absolutely no drying time. I was very fortunate to speak to Jan Arnold, the co-founder of CND, who said that the R&D process for this nail lacquer was five years. And this is a glory song for all housewives out there – who do the dishes and keep the house sparkling clean while wanting something totally chip free.

You dry your nails under a special CND UV Lamp, which also accommodates the feet. Now, note, this is a professional treatment and only available in salons worldwide starting May 2010. The retail price is so reasonable that you’ll be tempted to indulge in both a mani and pedi and reap the rewards of a lengthy relationship. At least on your toes and fingers that is!

The polish is 3-free, which means no formaldehyde, toluene or DBP. Plus there are 12 varieties of shades, ranging from natural colored nails (the French mani variety) to the dark claret and cappuccino colored varieties. Shown above is a shimmery red shade called Red Baroness.

The dark blue Electric Boogie (inky blue with teal glitter) gives you a memory trip back to the 1970s; dance your summer evenings with your significant other by wearing Slow Motion (light metallic lavender); let it all down with Freestyle (metallic mint with silver glitter); swirl ballet-style in Passionate Pirouette (a grape metallic purple); unlease your inner party animal with Night Moves until dawn (sparkling metallic silver); and go limbo with Belly Dance (nude taupe with shimmer).

We will post swatches as soon as we get the actual polishes, but for now, I’m digging Freestyle and Belly Dance and cannot wait to see how they salsa on my digits.

Barielle’s polishes are all formaldehyde, toluene and dibutyl-phthalate free and each retails for $8.00 at Barielle.com.

We think she would create a variation of OPI Holiday Glow and drizzle gold mesh all over it:

This still from her video Paparazzi intrigued me because of its silver and goth nails. We recommend a base coat of OPI’s Sapphire in the Snow, which is a dark, almost goth-like purple nail polish. Feel free to Swarovski a few of the nails to emulate Diva Gaga.
