Nosey and I needed a new makeup fix this weekend. That and my surprise to find them at only 1 sephora in my area, so I took the bait lol

I almost gave in to the allure of "New! Shiny! Different!", but I swatched them on my hand and could just barely tell them apart, beyond "warmer" or "cooler". I can't justify Guerlain prices for something that will be so light. I do like Les Cendres, which seems like a cooler-toned version of last year's Les Sables palette. I have Les Fumes, which is very similar (and which I'm wearing today), but I've had such great experiences with the Écrin 4 Couleurs that I feel I can always make room for one more...

Has anyone tried Guerlain's new Mon Exclusif fragrance?  I haven't seen it in store yet, but I'm curious to know what it smells like. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/guerlai...ualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=&resultback=1717

I have not tried it, but someone on here purchased it and said it was very sweet smelling. I like to try samples first...you never know how the smell will be on your skin... Nordies return policy is good so if you want to try it, I think it's returnable if you don't like it.

Yeah, the balms were really meh. Definitely not worth $35, imo. I've actually never tried Guerlain shadows, but I've heard so many great reviews On the Ecrin shadows. Need to venture into their shadows...

Guerlain makeup is sometimes very meh indeed ( the collections I mean ) I purchased the cleansing milk today, honestly It is close to perfection , the new cleansing milk, lotion, gentle foam, cream and eyemakeup lotion are just gorgeous . Very gentle for the skin, smooth and pure luxury. I do not like those balms at all but some products are really worth the splurge !

I went to a Guerlain counter, looked at the new collection and didn't buy anything. I ordered the rainbow pearls at escentual though, since they had a 25% off code. At the store, there was a Givenchy event going on though, and I ended up buying lots of Givenchy, and ordering some more from Escentual.

Ooo, I'll have to check those out they sound just lovely ️ Yeah, the balms were a disappointment. Wanted to love them, but no.

Absolutely It is ! Awesome range really . I would recommand It more than any other makeup removers . The Lancôme or Dior ones are very good but the Guerlain cleansing milk is beyond my expectations.

Oops I did it again .... Just got a phone call from the Guerlain counter at The Bay in Downtown Montreal. Maxim Poulin Guerlain international beauty artist will be there next week Friday and Saturday. I did make an appointment with him on Friday, i'm kind of excited but at the same time there is nothing that i want now .... I just want to buy the Holiday Collection that is still not available in Canada until November 1st.

I could have a makeover session with some fab Guerlain makeup artist, but I declined, for that reason. There is not anything I need/ want from the regular collection, and holiday collection will be released somewhere in November.

I might check out foundation thought and worst case scenario I will purchase Guerlain Terracotta perfume that I want since forever. Will see. I also want Guerlain Gourmand Coquin but at 300$ CAN I'm not sure it will be a good move for my wallet.

Is there any possibility he could have testers and use the new collection on you? They sometimes have all kinds of goodies for make-overs.
