Created by Kat Von D, tattoo artist, reality-TV star, and owner of High Voltage Tattoo, this edgy color collection exemplifies old-Hollywood glamour with an L.A. vibe. As her gorgeous face leads on, Kat is as masterful with makeup as she is with a tattoo gun. (She can throw on a full, flawless face of makeup in 15 minutes, flat. Now that’s on point.) Accordingly, her passion for makeup and self-expression is inked, so to speak, into every expert product she’s created. From pin-up perfection to rocker chic, this limited-edition lineup allows you to tap into your bad-girl side and unleash your inner artist.
Lovely line. Haven’t had a chance to check her out in person. But if it’s pigmented well, which the regular Sephora line is, then it’s a winner.
Below are my faves, please scoot on over to Sephora.com to check out the entire LE collection by Kat Von D.
