Guerlain Ecrin 4 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette in 06 Les Fumes Review and Swatches





(7,2g/0,25oz. - 60USD) I love this quad, first of all, the packaging feels luxurious without being too heavy for travel, it also has a huge mirror.
The first shade is a medium brown, has some warm sheen. Unlike the other 3 shades this one is more powdery and therefore you'll have a little fall out with this one. The second shade is a warm rose and it's matte. Third one is my favorite deep cool toned brown. The last shade is a shimmery pewter. They all have just the right amount of pigmentation, I hate when you have to be so careful because some shadows are crazily pigmented.

Guerlain Rouge Automatique in 167 Guet Apens Review and Swatches





(0.12oz/3.4g - 35USD) Guet Apens is a ruby red lip color, it's very sheer and not buildable. It has tiny little pearls in the bullet but not noticable when swatched. As all other Guerlain ones this lipstick also has a lovely scent to it.

Guerlain Rouge G Lipstick in 70 Gigolo Review and Swatches



(0.12oz/3.4g - 48USD) I love everything about this lipstick, I have 2 more Rouge G's but this one is different. It has such a soft formula enough to glide on and melt on your lips but it's very long lasting at the same time. It's rich in pigmentation. The shade on it's own is divine. A maroon with some purple hint, it has mostly creamy finish but it has tiny pearls in it that gives dimension. These vampy colors are must for this fall season.

Guerlain Rouge Automatique in 140 Mitsouko Review and Swatches



(0.12oz/3.4g - 35USD) Mitsouko is a sheer orange toned color with lots of golden shimmer. It doesn't give much color, in fact that subtle color fades very quickly, in an hour or so but golden shimmers stay a lot longer. It has an amazing texture, very smooth, glides effortlessly, and who can resist this jewel-like Guerlain packaging?

Guerlain Kiss Kiss Strass Lip Color in #342 Orange Sequin Review and Swatches




(0.12oz./3.4g - 33USD) I got this lipstick after reading Temptalia's review about it, without actually seeing the color. I knew it was going to look different on my lips but I didn't expect this much difference. When I saw the color in the tube, I was shocked because it's looked brown rather than orange, but after putting it on my lips I realized how sheer it is. It just gives you a tint of color but a lot of glossy effect and lots of sparkle. It has wonderful amount of fine glitter in it and they are not chunky at all. For me the unique thing about this lipstick is that it has orange and golden shimmer, not gold or silver like other thousands of products out there.
Here is another lip swatch with more day light.


The formula is great, very smooth, it just glides on like butter. I almost forgot to mention how great it smells, please Guerlain make perfume with this scent.

Guerlain Cruel Gardenia Meteorites Powder Highlighter


I have been literally admiring this illuminator all day, but unfortunately it's not out yet. You have to wait until January 2012 to get it. It's from Guerlain's Les Roses et Le Noir Spring 2012 Collection. I don't know how am I going to touch this, think it'll sit on my vanity and be pretty for a long time until I start using it. How can you damage this beauty? I'll only purchase this illuminator because of the flower design. If you want to read a review or admire it with more pictures you can click here.

Guerlain Rouge G Lipsticks in 60 Gabrielle and 61 Gaela Review and Swatches




(4g/0,14oz. - 47USD) Yes they are very pricey but aren't they the prettiest lipsticks ever? They feel luxurious and smell wonderful. I'd definitely purchase if there was a fragrance smelled like them. Anyhow Gabrielle is a baby pink with a lot of pearl, quite translucent but buildable. Gaela is more opaque and less pearly and has watermelon pink color.
The formula is very rich and quite moisturizing. It has a long wearing formula, won't budge until you eat or drink.

Guerlain Terracotta Mineral Flawless Bronzing Powder 02 Medium Review Swatches





(0,1oz./3g - 65USD) Guerlain is the best when it comes to bronzers in my opinion, this is basically a mineral bronzer from their Terracotta line. All of the colors are completely matt.
Packaging is genius, unlike other mineral powders this one won't make that much mess (still pretty messy, but less). You don't have to pour it into the cap and use it from there and sometimes you put too much and when trying to pour it back into the container you make a mess and spill your precious powder on the floor. But with this one, you just need to take your baby kabuki brush that comes with it and swirl it across the fine sieve.
