Guerlain discussion

Thank you so much for sharing!

The pressed Meteorites are too brown for me....unfortunatly.
I would have loved to get them because the packaging is so beautiful.

That's the bronzer. The pressed meterorites are white, pink, green and violet I think.

So good to know....so I might get the Meteorites.This combo sounds amazing

It's not perfume though, it's perfumed shimmer spray. I also don't think it's too dark, Guerlain bronzers tend to be quite subtle.

Aw man. I'm still going to try it out.

I have a few of these from former collections and I really like them!
The bottles are sooooo pretty and the shimmer of the powder is awesome.

I have the shimmer spray from two years ago and I like it. It feels very girly but elegant, and the scent is not too strong. I tried it on my dry hair but it doesn't work. I might get this year's!

What do you mean it doesn't work? I always get loads of compliments when I wear mine, I spray it on dry hair and it gives a gorgeous subtle shimmer. I also spray it on my arms and decolette. I have all of them from the last 6 years and I've not had any problems.

Thank you for sharing

"Meteorite Bubble Blush" sounds interesting....cannot wait to see what it is!

Maybe like the old version of pressed Meteorites? Those had a "bubble-esque" surface....

....that makes me very happy too!

Isn't that what they called the mousse blush from 2006? ... Yes, digging through my makeup archives (lol) I have one in my blush drawer: "Divinora Bubble Blush — Mousse Texture, Velvety Effect". I have the colour "Light Whisper". It's nice, an interesting texture, but more of a highlighter than a blush.

No, it is not from the Divinora Line.I have never heard of this one.

I mean the former Meteorites.I cannot remember when they were d/ced and I have never owned them.
Maybe Anitacska does???I think that she has a very big Guerlain collection...

It is not visible on my hair, it slides off or get blown off. How many sprays do you give it? Perhaps I need to give it more sprays. On my arms and decolette they are visible.

Yes, exactly! Those are the ones I was referring to

Quite a few, I guess 6-7-8? I have quite a lot of long hair. It does go away fairly quickly, if I use it on a night out, it's all gone by the morning.

I don't know if they were LE or have been discontinued, but they're definitely not around anymore. I have all 4 and I think a blusg version of those would be very cute. They came in the same compact as Cruel Gardenia.

As far as I know they are d/ced.There were 3 perm colors IIRC but they did also realese LE ones (Nacre des Mers e.g.).

And, yes, the packaging was CG-esque!

I'm not sure if this has been posted (sorry if it has), but there seems to be a bright orange Rouge Automatique in the Holiday collection. Or at least the packaging is bright orange.

This is kinda disappointing, I hoped for a gorgeous ecrin de 4 coleurs like the one of the last holiday collection. There ist nothing that really says „Get meeeee!“ to me there. :-/
Plus I still regrett not being able to get the pressed meteorites of Liu's last year, packeging and colour were so beautiful...

I'm not too crazy about the colors either, i really don't wear a lot of pink. I LOVE the packaging though so I would like to get something, I'm hoping the lipsticks are more my colors

Unless swatches of the palette blow me away, this collection is going to be a big skip for me.

 

[Dominique33]

A big skip for me too, I think this Holiday collection is not classy. And again Paris, la Petite Robe Noire, it's déjà vu ! I love Guerlain, I love Paris but this collection is a skip !

There are a couple of links to swatches further back in the thread- in fact the swatches are more disappointing to me than the palette itself. Thus far, I'm interested only in Provocative Rouge G and Sulfurous nail polish, although I haven't seen the Rouge Automatique yet.

Picked up Madame Flirte yesterday, which I'm loving. It is similar to Rouge Sensuel, but I don't mind, since that's one of my favourite shades. It is a bit cooler in tone.

You're right, the black-pink packeging is nice, but it does not draw me to buy because of the real product inside.^^ Although I could go for a lipstick either, if they make something like an holiday-red one...

I have swatched the Rouge G, if you scroll back a few pages, you'll find it, it's not red, but a nice fuchsia pink. The Rouge Automatique is probably an orangey colour by the looks of it. HTH.
