Fall 2012 NEW "The PoP Portfolio" by PoP Beauty: 36 Shades!

Here is another new Fall 2012 release for ya'll! PoP Beauty's PoP Portfolio palette! Don't be fooled by the cheap looking packaging, the shadows inside are really fantastic! I have quickly fallen in love with this palette! Yes, there are many drugstore palettes out there that look very similar to this one (elf, Claire's, Profusion, etc); but, the quality of this PoP palette is far superior to the ones found at the drugstore!

If you like metallic shades, you should check out this palette! All of these shadows have major pigment and a metallic/frosty shine. Honestly, this is the nicest assortment of metallics that I have in one single palette (and that is saying a lot if you have seen my palette collection!). My inner "Palette Princess" is thrilled with this palette! :)

Fall 2012: OPI's Germany Collection

I know that it is hard to think of Fall when it is 100 degrees outside! Here in GA, it is "Back to School" time already. So, even in the sweltering Summer Heat, minds are turned already towards Fall.

On of my biggest makeup "shifts" during change-of-season, is nail color. Going from Summer Brights to Darker Fall shades is actually really exciting for me. While I am not quite ready to switch to Fall colors *just yet*, I will be soon! Seeing the images of this collection is getting me really excited! 

OPI launches its Fall Collection "Germany" in August!  The collection includes a range of 12 lacquers inspired by the destination. $8.50. There are also two new Designer Series shades – DS Luxurious and DS Indulgence. $12.50; available in September.

Nicole by OPI releases five, Target-exclusive metallic shades in rich jewel tones for fall. $7.04; Target or target.com; available in August. I did not include images of these in this post as I will have a full review of these (including NOTDs) coming soon!!! :)
