FASHION NEWS: LA LA DESIGNS COSMETICS LINE, MOTIVES FOR LA LA / BLAIR UNDERWOOD LAUNCHES MEN’S TAILORED SUITS LINE

Watch out MAC! La La Anthony is coming for your cosmetics crown. That’s right, the television personality, star of La La’s Full Court Life, and soon to be actress has developed her own cosmetics line with the help of Loren Ridinger, senior vice president of Market America/SHOP.com, called Motives for La La.

The line will include lipsticks, eyeshadows, blushes, and foundations that emphasized shades for African American and Latina women. La La cites the lack of colors available for women of color in mainstream cosmetics lines as inspiration for her line’s offerings.

The line is set to debut next month at Market America’s 2012 World Conference which is an annual event to showcase the company’s newest initiatives. It’s expected to go on sale at the Market website shortly afterward.
