Maximizing eye-opening innovation, Estée Lauder unveiled a breakthrough in mascara-TurboLash All Effects Motion Mascara-a revolutionary, patent-pending, battery-powered mascara. Leading-edge technology delivers everything the consumer wants in mascara: volume, length, definition, separation and curl. An innovative formula and brush design with a unique micropulsing effect allows the brush to penetrate deep into the lash bed and comb through lashes more quickly and effectively.

Lipstick is the ultimate beauty icon. Glossy or matte, subtle or striking, nothing says glamour quite like perfectly defined, sensual red lips. Worn by 80 percent of women, lipstick is both alluring and transformative, transcending age, ethnicity and status. In a move to re-define luxury, the Estée Lauder brand unveiled a new gold standard in lipstick: Estée Lauder Signature Hydra Lustre Lipstick. Encased in elegant fluted packaging with a decadently luxurious new formula, the lipstick promises hours of moisture and rich, lustrous, comfortable color to lips.

An ultra-sheer version of the number-one selling Double Wear liquid foundation, Double Wear Light is a liquid foundation that provides an even, naturally sheer, flawless finish that lasts for up to 15 hours without fading or transferring. The technology in the foundation allows Double Wear Light to adjust to each individual's skin type, keeping moisture levels balanced while controlling excess oil and shine.

Custom Blend makeup from Prescriptives allows each woman to create the perfect match of cheek, eye and lip colors for her special skin undertone. Women of any nationality or ethnic heritage can find the right look to complement their individual beauty.
