'Twilight' Beauty - The Movie Saga to Launch Vampy Makeup Line

In other words, brace yourself for mass hysteria.
Stephenie Meyer's book series and the "Twilight" film saga have inspired a range of beauty products.
You were probably as enraptured as I was by the vampires' sparkly skin, flushed cheeks and juicy lips (especially Edward Cullen's).

Creating the movie-tied makeup is Cristina Bartolucci, famous for her innovative beauty brand, DuWop. (Lip Venom ring a bell?)
Word is there will be a special "Twilight" edition of the cult-favorite lip plumper with one half of the tube's vial's contents resembling blood.
Better yet, the cast apparently wears the makeup in the second movie installment: "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" out November 20.
I got a sneak peek at both collections, LunaTwilight and Volturi, and while I'm still barely able to catch my breath (major "Twilight" fan here), I'll hit you with the highlights.
LunaTwilight is the more luxurious of the two offerings -- the packaging is heartbreakingly gorgeous and the formulas are more sophisticated than the alternate collection.
I hate to tease you with some of the the product names before they're available, but let's be honest, I can't help myself and you can't wait: "First Light Body Glow," "Mortal Glow Blushing Creme" and Color Palettes in "Bella," "Rosalie," "Alice" and "Victoria." (I can't wait to see "Alice" -- she was my favorite.)

Volturi, the other Twilight Beauty collection, will strike a chord with those who've read the book.
The Volturi is the most feared and powerful coven of vampires, and that same dark, exciting sensibility can be felt in its products.
The Volturi family crest appears on the packaging and some standouts include "Deity Body Lotion," "Immortal Body Shimmer" and "Crown Mascara" (shown left).
Everything I've seen can only be described as elegant and wicked.
Twilight Beauty will be available on its own site: TwilightBeauty.com, which isn't live yet and an official launch date for the products has not been announced (though, it looks like it will be timed around the movie's release), so stay tuned.

I'm guessing that you'll be able to order it directly off of the website.

man i'm so psyched for this makeup line...it's combining two of my favorite things: twilight, and makeup!!! i read somewhere that it was supposed to launch of august 17th, but obviously that didn't happen. i've been checking like everyday to see if it's up yet, but no luck. anyone have any clue as to when the store will launch?
ps - i already bought the Lip Venon V when they did the limited time sale in July, and it's fabulous. it feels all tingly and is a really pretty color. definitely a special occasion thing tho. it's a little too...vampy for school or work use.
