....gorgeous!!!

The Meteorites are to die for

I don't think this has been posted, but on her Instagram BritishBeautyBlogger posted a picture of the "neon dot lipstick", which is a rouge G in black packaging (yay!) and which clasp is neon pink.

You know, after looking at the bronzer again, it kind of remind me of the Physicians Formula correcting powder. I wonder how it would swatch.

So I wonder if the "bronzer" is actually the same as the voyage powder, but in a cheaper compact, so it will cost less? Cause it certainly looks like the voyage powders, but if it's called Terracotta bronzer, then it shouldn't cost too much.

So many! Nars has a some lovely purples including the Jolie Poupee and Demon Lover duos (both cooler/ bluer purples). Guerlain Les Violets is beautiful and if you can get your hands on it, the Attrape-Coeur palette from the Spring is one of my favourites.



Ooh! I like the little "dot" detail on the packaging... And weren't we just talking about how nice the "Serie Noire" packaging looked on the Rouge G lipsticks?

Chic Profile posted the following on the collection. Mostly stuff we knew already (we're so well-informed), but she does have a description of the bronzer that sounds, well... pretty crazy:

I hope so....that would be great!

Her description is actually for the powder we've seen already, which I thought was a voyage powder, but might just be aa cheaper version in a cheaper compact.

I think the bronzer is the pressed powder we see at th top corner of the pic. It matches the colour description on chicprofile. So excited to see the rouge g!

 

[Anitacska]

Me too! Hope it's the same colour as the clasp!

So excited to see the rouge g!

So excited to see the rouge g!

Me too! I would never wear it or very sheerly, lol. But I kind of want it.

Color me surprised, but the bronzer looks more like a meteorites voyage compact than a bronzer. Like you ladies said, if it's like a meteorites voyage compact but at a bronzer price, then yay!

Me 3

So excited to see the rouge g!

 

[MACina]

That would be awesome

Me too! Hope it's the same colour as the clasp!

Do any of you use the orchid skincare line? Is it worth the $$

I don't know, Miss QQ, chic profile tends to get a LOT wrong in the scheme of things. It's certainly possible that the bronzer is the pressed power, but I doubt it.

I'll pass, again la Petite Robe Noire well it's not very classy in my opinion ( the whole collection I mean ), girly and very oh-so-trendy ( Paris ) and that's it !

I hope so! It looks nice in the pics so I'd definitely pick it up if the price is cheaper.

I have used it and liked it, but it's very very expensive and I honestly can't say whether it does exactly what it says on the tin. It is very luxurious and feels lovely, but I think it's horribly overpriced for what it is. But then some people swear by Creme de la Mer and obviously they sell plenty enough to stay in business....

According to Get Lippie there's also a nail polish and an ultra violet top coat. She has them, the lipstick, the Meteorites and the shimmer spray and will be reviewing them all in the coming week. Here's the link to her blog: getlippie.blogspot.com

 

[vaisforluvrs]

She also reviewed the Fall lipsticks. I think I'm going to pass on Reve and Flirte. They just look too sheer for that price. I will get Batifole and probably pick up one of the perm ones on my list.

Edit: Just saw T wearing Flirte in her review of the blush and it's super pretty and very wearable! Just hope it's different enough from Sensual to justify owning both!

 

[iATEaSEAmonster]

Here's a bit of evidence that suggests the bronzer and the voyage powder are two separate products: http://diarydirectory.blogspot.com/2013/08/guerlain-unveils-crazy-paris-christmas.html

Then again, they only list one price. So it could still be the same product.

Oh, I have my eyes on the polishes! Other than that the collection will be a skip for me, like it usually is with Guerlain. I don't know why... the brand as a whole really appeals to me, I love the packaging, but I rarely end up buying anything. I'd like to get the fall collection blush, but I can't drop that kind of money right now.
Maybe the holiday polishes will be something that ends up in my stash. I do love the packaging with the pink accents.

I have a couple sample tubes of the eye cream & LOVE love it. I wish I didn't because of the price. Its the only thing that I've tried.

 

[stacekang]

I just got samples of all the stuff with my fall collection purchase I made yesterday but they are so small I don't think I will be able to tell how well they work. I do not think I would drop that kind of money on skin care... If my skin ever needs $2000+ of anti aging care I will just hit up the plastic surgeon LOL!!!!
