Happy Thanksgiving, lovelies! What are your plans? I am still in the midst of travel and cannot wait to soon recapitulate what has been an incredible week in New York City.
In the meanwhile, I am thrilled to share that
Marc Jacobs Beauty has two exclusive sets for Black, or should I say #Blacquer Friday: The Contour and Glow Brush Set + The Paint It Blacquer – Blacquer Collection. The rich and luminous obsidian tone of the products in the collection is undeniably gorgeous and their utilitarian and classic nature will have you reaching for them time and again.
Kindly scroll on for all of the details and a copious amount of images as well as the Bottom Line…
- The Shape Contour Brush: the
special oval
shape of this contouring brush places contouring and highlighting
powders exactly where you want them, for bold payoff and a sleek look. I love using this with the cream-based Tom Ford Shade + Illuminate (reviewed HERE) to add depth and dimension to the face.
- The Blush Angled Blush Brush: this angled blush brush is
perfectly shaped to create a diffused glow across
your cheeks; try using this brush to apply Marc Jacobs Shameless Bold Blush in Obsessed (reviewed HERE) to the apples of the cheeks for a lit from within look.
- The Bronze Bronzer Brush: this luxurious bronzing brush is oversized to deliver the instant
gratification of a healthy bronzed look. I use this fluffy wonder to sweep bronzer on my lower cheekbones and along the perimeter of my face for a warmth that looks entirely natural.

Next up is the *Paint It Blacquer – Blacquer Collection…this stunning onyx-hued trio, which retails for a very reasonable $50, includes:
- O!Mega Lash Volumizing Mascara: Create eye-opening, smudge-proof
definition with O!Mega Lash to lengthen, define and volumize lashes. I am impressed by how full and lush my lashes look with just two coats.
- Magic Marc’er Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner: Line eyes with the ultimate
precision of Magic Marc’er. This waterproof liquid eyeliner lays down
even, precise lines with ink so unique that it delivers
shine that’s literally patented. I prefer to sweep the tip across my upper lid, as close to the lashline as possible (as pictured at end of post). This instantly makes lashes look darker and fuller!
- Enamored Hi-Shine Nail Lacquer: Finish your look with a coat of Enamored Hi-Shine Nail Lacquer nail
polish, available for the first time in ultra-glossy Blacquer, for nails that shine like 30 coats of lacquer. I cannot get over how pigmented and reflective this shade is…it’s edgy and positively luxe.

Good things ahead, including my comprehensive Black Friday Guide (going live later on today) and, of course, a shopping list for Cyber Monday-only deals.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving…I am truly thankful for your friendship, readership and support…XO,
