Bobbi Brown’s Holiday Collection has me crazy excited! It’s like a dream because everything is absolutely gorgeous and I want it all. Note to self….another collection to add to my Christmas list.

First off is the The Black Plum Deluxe Beauty Trunk ($500). My beauty trunk is in need of an upgrade so talk about perfect timing. Not only can you store makeup products, your jewelry can fit right in. I can’t wait to have this in my possession.

Sad news for Max Factor in the beauty world. According to P&G, the makeup artist genius will no longer be selling its makeup products in the U.S. starting 2010. Max Factor is not going out a business, they are just focusing more on overseas market since the sales are stronger. Check out the story, for more details.

I’m very saddened by this news since I’ve recently grown to love Max Factor and to now here that it’s leaving the U.S. is a bit overwhelming for me. You will be missed.

How do you feel about Max Factor leaving the U.S.?
