I got the radiant blush in the special Chinese New Year packaging, and I realised it was shade 6 of the permanent radiant blush. I love it, it gives the right intensity with a few quick strokes of the brush, giving a healthy glow. The brush that comes with the palette feels very soft so it will be good for touch ups. I also saw the new glosses with the sponge tip. There are pretty colours and there is also a black one, which when swatched was rather black and would transform any lip colours to a dark shade. They had a sweet scent.

It is called flower crush palette rosy blush duo and is listed on the ysl website. It is not in stock yet. It will probably be better as a highlighting product for me.

Here is a review from a fellow specktrette:

It's also on Saks and NM. I just finished my review of it. It's very light in color, though it can be built up somewhat. If it was a little darker I would have found my HG blush.

Thank you so much! I LOVE Corail Bagatelle! I just happened to pick it up and have been blown away by it. It's truly beautiful on. It's so unbelievably buttery and rich and the pigmentation is ridiculous. I expected to fall in love with Flower Crush Rosy Blush, but of the two, Corail Bagatelle has stolen my heart.

Oh thank you so much! I hope you love it as much as I do! I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed in Flower Crush as well. It's lovely as a highlighter, but not so much as a blush. It's fairly hard to build up the opacity and takes quite a bit of time and effort. Which is such a shame, because the packaging and the blush itself are SO unbelievably beautiful.

This is why I passed on it too, the packaging is so pretty and the powder design is gorgeous but it didn't look like there was actually enough color to it

I have a NM gift card waiting to be used, so I am still debating about the blush.

But my recent NARS splurge is now holding me back: 2 blushes, illuminator and es palette. I am going to be a "golf widow" this weekend - DH is spending the weekend away golfing and probably drinking too much with his guy buddies - so I told him that he owed me something. LOL Any justification right?

I wish that I could wear these. The colors are so beautiful, but the fragrance is too much for me.

ETA:Just tried one today and the fragrance wasn't that bad. I was thinking of the glossy stains. They smell horrible - to me anyway.

I saw the spring collection at Neiman Marcus today. I swatched the eye palette but the colors were just too sheer. Maybe with an eye base the color would show better but I just didn't want to chance it. The colors look so pretty in the pan. This is too bad. I felt the same about the eye colors from the last collection. I did not see the Flower Crush blush. In fact, I didn't see a spot for it on the display.

I don't know if it has been said here already. I did do a search but what is the lip color the model is wearing in the promo ads?

Anyone tried the new gloss volupte lipglosses yet?
I actually tried one on in store. It looked really nice and felt very light. It felt a little thinner than the Chanel glossimers and a little thicker than the Guerlain Gloss d'Enfer. It had the same powerful melon scent as the Rouge Voluptes, which didn't seem to fade- that's a huge minus for me. The shade that I tried was moderately pigmented, but it was one of the darkest shades, so I'd expect the lighter shades to be quite sheer. It did look lovely when applied, since it had a sort of sparkle that made my lips look very full and smooth. I didn't find it lasted long, although my lips were quite dry and I suspect I was pleating them a lot, which would have reduced the wear time. I actually felt like the smell lasted longer than the colour.
