HBO & HSN Launch Forsaken Beauty Collection Inspired by True Blood

Do you find yourself wishing you has lips as tempting as Jessica's or eyes as sultry as Pam's from True Blood? Want to release your inner vampire? Well thanks to HBO and HSN, now you can. Introducing the Forsaken Beauty Collection, a unique collection of beauty products inspired by HBO's Emmy® and Golden Globe® winning hit series True Blood. The one-of-a-kind luxury collection includes the Forsaken signature fragrance created by Givaudan; beauty products from Deborah Lippmann and home fragrance products, which includes luxury candles and diffusers with the Forsaken scent, from D.L. & Company. Kristin Bauer van Straten, who plays Pam de Beaufort, was on hand with world-renowned celebrity manicurist, Deborah Lippmann to help HBO and HSN celebrate this unique launch.

Forsaken will be available in an Eau de Parfum, a body cream and shimmering body veil powder. The fragrance is evocative of the dark and seductive world of True Blood, capturing the soul of the show. Forsaken was developed with an addictive blend of light and dark notes. Pulpy fruits paired with crisp pear notes are followed by mid notes of night blooming jasmine, also fittingly known as Queen of the Night. The scent closes with the dark muskiness of amber and patchouli. Ultra feminine, yet sultry, the fragrance will cast a spell on everyone.

The Forsaken fragrance will be incorporated into a nail lacquer titled "Let It Bleed" and is part of a combination set with a coordinating lipstick – Lippmann’s first ever -- called "Bite Me". Lippmann also created two additional sets for the collection: "Sookie Sookie" featuring full-size "Human Nature", "Fairydust" and "Bad Things"; and a trio of minis including "Strange Love", "New Flesh" and "Bad Blood".
The Forsaken Beauty Collection will launch exclusively on HSN, HSN.com and via HSN mobile beginning on August 9, 2012. The collection will be available at the HBO Shop in September and will follow with worldwide distribution at specialty retailers late 2012. Check out a few more images from the event below:
