Le Metier de Beaute is well known for their amazing colors, products, style and collaborations. The Fall of 2011 was no exception.
Three sets of Lip and Nail Duo’s were released in another collaboration between Le Metier de Beaute and Neiman Marcus Senior VP & Fashion Director Ken Downing. Wine On The Vine/Bodacious Bordeaux, I’m Worn This Way/Vintage Ken , and Ken Red My Lips/Gypsy Rose Me.
I only purchased one of these sets, but even though I’m a little late to the game, I’m excited to share with you Wine On The Vine Moisture Stain Lipstick and Bodacious Bordeaux Nail Lacquer.

About Le Métier de Beauté:
Le Métier de Beauté (which translates to “the craft of beauty”) is known for its award-wining Peau Vierge Anti-Aging Complexe. The line also features stunning makeup and has collaborated with couture and ready-to-wear designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig of Marchesa on a fashion-inspired color collection.
Wine on the Vine
Wine on the Vine is such a flattering shade of berry. It is a light lipstick that can be layered to achieve a deeper color. I applied this lipstick with nothing underneath and it is SO moisturizing you don’t even need a gloss over top. It wears a bit longer than average and leaves a nice stain behind as it drifts away.
Bodacious Bordeaux
Bodacious Bordeaux is a refined berry red, perfect to make your nails look exquisite and your confidence feel rich. I needed three thin coats for even application.
Overall, this is a solid duo, perfect for Fall or an evening out during any season. The packaging is eye catching and the products are amazing. After a year of buying and wearing their products, I’ve decided Le Metier de Beaute can do no wrong. You can quote me.
Le Metier de Beaute Ken Downing’s Lip and Nail Duo – Bodacious Bordeaux normally retails for $48.00, but is currently ON SALE for $24.00. If you’ve been waiting to try products from this line, there is no better time to do it. Get it while you can only at Neiman Marcus.
