It may be all white outside, but this morning I got a glimpse of Laura Mercier’s launches for Spring 2011, and it’s looking like a very bright season.

If you thought the brand was all about foundations and powders think again, because the Spring collection has a serious colour offering. Six shiny bright gel lipsticks, some seriously pretty jewel-coloured baked eyeshadows and a super glittery gold liner are all scheduled for Spring launches.

There’s also a serious side going on-counter: the skincare line has been repackaged and is looking very smart and rather high-tech, with two new hero products: a do-it-all serum and a must-have eye make-up remover.

I’ll have to wait for the snow to melt to get my hands on the collection – but it’s making me feel warmer already.
