Lancôme’s Fall color collection, Maharani Jewels, pays homage to India, where the beauty brand opened last year.

Now, I'm trying to write something coherent here, but all I can really say is...OMG ELEPHANT COMPACT. And NEW JUICY TUBES PACKAGING. Need I say more? The Poudre Elephant Teint is a limited edition bronzer with an embossed elephant. I want it, but I don't think I'd ever use it, for fear of mussing up that precious elephant.

And the Juicy Tubes packaging is so pretty, adorned with golden scallop lines, dots, teardrops and paisley shapes. Now those, I'd use up in a heartbeat.

The Maharani Jewels collection is available right now at www.lancome-usa.com. Details on all the new products:

• Poudre Elephant Teint (limited edition)

• Maharani Juicy Tubes (limited edition) in Mango Mystere, Guava Enchantment and Autumn Jasmine

• Le Crayon Khôl Kajal in Amber Night, Smoky Henna and India Ink
