Guerlain 2011 Holiday collection - Belle de Nuit

Dropped by Guerlain counter with my girlfriends last month as she wanted to redeem her Guerlain voucher and points in her birthday month :).  As I looked around, I saw the Guerlain brochure, featuring their latest Fall Collection 2011 and Christmas Collection 2011!

A few Guerlain items that I'm interested :):

Guerlain meteorites perles-de-nuit

I always want to try Guerlain meteorites but have to think twice on the shimmery finish (don't want to end up like a crystal ball), but after reading Fruitylashes review, I will definitely give it a try this time :).

Fruitylashes.com has done a detailed review on this illuminating powder, here's her final thoughts:
"The silver pearl is the one key pearl that gives a brighter look with a cool tone for winter and holiday season. Even though the effect isn’t dramatic, it makes you look glowy with a hint of snowy white on the cheeks. The glow is so fine that even camera cannot capture."

"With all the meteorites in common, Perles de Nuit enhances the complexion in a subtle way. Don’t think it’s similar to one that you already have, it’s just one luxurious item that you know you want to indulge and it’s quite addicting. Once you start, you’ll want everyone of them."

Next item would be the eye shadow palette and blush...

Guerlain Écrin 4 Couleurs Eye Shadow Palette - Les Noirs

This is 4-pan eyeshadow comprises of one matte shade and 3 shimmery shades which according to reviews, the shimmers are extremely fine and stunning!    Each shade is distinct and in the following textures:

IRIDESCENT: tiny pearly particles that release luminous colour with an iridiscent finish. 
MATTE: an extra-matt, ultra-soft finish for ultimate comfort.
VELVET SATIN: perfect glide for a velvety result that feels soft and delicate.
ALCANTAR'EYES: a metallic finish with unbelievable softness.

My eyes started to blink and deep inside my heart is saying "Gosh...I must get this palette!!"

Guerlain Parure de Nuit Pressed Powder and Blush

As I read from other beauty bloggers, this blush in a sleek case works more like a highlighter as the shade (soft pink,  coral red and blue green) is very sheer.  It has a nice violet scent which is a pull factor for me to get this!

  1. I really like Guerlain. I think the quality really stands out. Although I must warn you, the powders sometimes are scented and I don't really like the scents. lol
