Let me preface this by saying if I could buy ANYTHING to make me look like that model, I would! Sure, I can grow, dye, extend and pout myself up, but nothing compares to the natural redhead and her complexion!
I'm not going to look like her, but that still doesn't sour me on Clinique. Much.
OK, I'm a little bitter.
Juiced Up Color
Clinique's Spring collection is called Juiced Up Color, and please remember that we're discussing Clinique when you imagine "juiced-up color", okay!? 'Cause your version of "juiced-up" and theirs may differ!
At any rate, expect soft and pretty berries and pinks. Think fruit. Once you see the products, you can't help but think of it, actually!

Limited Edition Fresh Picked Allover Colour
Mixed Berries
This is one of those head-scratchers for me. It's pretty, and from the picture it appears to look like it would be a great blush. Bit "all over color"?? I dunno... though I'm sure it's sheer, the other Clinique Allover Colors were too much color for my fair skin. Maybe darker complexions can handle the sheer wash of pink, but not I!

Fresh Picked Eye Shadows
Fresh Picked Berry, Fresh Picked Pear
Um... yum! I love that pear one, don't you!? I know, sandy beige and mossy green - not that extraordinary, but the palette is so cute!!
Use the light shade as a base, the green as liner and contour.
Or use the green as base, the beige as highlighter.
Or pick up a little of each and blend - see whatcha get!
I like the Clinique shadows. They're great for women who want a smidge of color without risk of looking clownlike, but they're not so boring they fade into the skin. And they're silky smooth, too!

High Lengths Mascara
I don't know much about it, but I'm a fan of Clinique's mascaras, so I can't wait to hear more!
I know from Beaut.ie that it's:
- got a "willow wand" which grab the tiniest hairs
- bestowed with 3 rows of "tines" to apply the right amount of product every time
- got a flexible and conditioning formula

Instant Lift for Brows
Soft Blonde, Soft Brown, Deep Brown
It looks a bit like Estee-sister-brand MAC's Shadestick, doesn't it? But it's a dual-tipped brow wiz, apparently. Fill in brows with one side, highlight the browbone with the other.
Meh. I have highlighters out the wazoo, but I'm always interested in a product that promises to fill in brows softly...
