Enter and Win Poppy King’s Fifteen Minutes of Fame -Pop Art Gloss

Choose from a rainbow of Warhol-Inspired shades from the Lipstick Queen.

Joyce Beauty introduces a fun new lipstick concept for Spring 2010.

Get poppy and colorful with Poppy King, the Lipstick Queen’s Fifteen Minutes of Fame Pop Art Gloss.  For those not familiar with the Queen Of Lipstick, Poppy’s story started  in 1992. When Poppy, 18 years old and fresh out of high school in Melbourne, Australia, couldn’t find the shade of lipstick that she really wanted, she decided to make her own. Her obsession with lipstick and her quest to create just that perfect shade led to the creation of her own brand. Since then, her lipsticks have become wildly popular, hence the her title, Lipstick Queen.

The Fifteen Minutes of Fame Pop Art Gloss sees Poppy taking inspiration from Andy Warhol, where he famously predicted modern celebrity in his quote that “In the future everyone will be famous for minutes” . The Pop Art Gloss line consists of 15 shades ranging from the palest of pinks to deep wines. The gloss are made in non-sticky, moisturizing formula filled with special emollients and Vitamin E and comes in 2 sizes, regular and mini gloss pens.

Become a Butterboom Facebook Fan and get details on how to win one of 15 free Poppy King’s new gloss pens.

Yves Saint Laurent Manifesto Conquers Central

Fashionistas hit the humid streets of Hong Kong on Saturday.

As we posted last week, Yves Saint Laurent held their yearly Manifesto launch in 6 cities around the world and Hong Kong is one of the 3 Asian cities to participate (Tokyo and Seoul being the others.) And no crazy thunderstorms, heatwaves or high-percentage humidity was going to hold back Hong Kong’s fashionistas, as tons of people lined up from Queen’s Road Central all the way up to the Fringe Club this past Saturday morning to grab a copy and a bag from white-and-black outfitted YSL promotion girls.

Last year’s was not as crazy, but it was raining so maybe rain scares away the fashionistas more than the humidity. Thanks to Butterboom reader Edwin for sending us these snapshots of the chaos on Wyndham this past Saturday:
