Gold Digger by Laura Mercier

Kanye West’s 2005 smash hit “Gold Digger” (featuring Jamie Foxx) remains one of my favourite workout songs. I’m about to get a bit catty here, but the lyrics are such a tribute to what Heather Mills-McCartney did to Sir Paul McCartney.

It’s really neat that Laura Mercier would use “Gold Digger” to describe their summer 2008 gold collection and give a positive twist to a not-so-positive combination of words.

Gold is a perfect for this summer and women over 35 should absolutely take note of this collection. Laura Mercier’s Gold Digger Collection is all about warmth, sensuality richness and über glamour. Laura Mercier has really created a fantastic collection that will leave you regal looking at any age.

This collection certainly explains why gold sets the standard for luxury with its four-piece collection:

1. Eye Colour Pot: An eye shadow available in bronzed gold, solid gold, and white gold.

* Dual Eye Colour Brush: This is a multipurpose eye brush that should help you apply your Eye Colour Pot with ease.

2. Nail Lacquer: Take your summer manicure to golden heights by opting for either a sterling (silver) or a 24 karat (gold) look.

3. Lip Glaces: Send golden kisses with a gold, bronze or platinum shaded lipgloss.

4. Bronzing Duo: a coral/bronze or pink/bronze compact that contains a slightly shimmering long-wearing bronzer on one side and a bright blush on the other.
