But think they be ok

I'm not exactly sure my Mac foundation tone, as I don't really use mac--- but I'm really pale. I use typically the palest foundations from brands and sometimes they're still too yellow/dark. The holiday balls look lovely on me. They aren't too bronze or dark. I believe they will look great on you!

I agree with laurennxox's comment.

You'll look fine with the holiday pearls; just make sure that the meteorites don't arrive crushed and powdery. I'm NW20 and Teint Dore (Dore in the new version) works as a barely there soft bronzer that gives a natural warmth without looking unnatural.

Just ordered the holiday Rouge G! Yay!

PS. UK ladies, it's in stock at John Lewis. House of Fraser also has some of the collection, but not the lipstick.

This might well be of interest to some here who've wondered about the Rouge G lipsicks- Temptalia has posted new photos/ swatches of all the permanent shades, with dupes/ comparisons given. As she says, some of the shades are ones that she reviewed five years ago, so she's updated the comparisons and photos so that they're more in line with what she's been doing lately. (I find that it helps to be able to see them in consistent lighting):

This doesn't include any of the limited Rouge G shades, although there are some dupes/ comparisons available.

UK Ladies, Escentual has most of the Guerlain holiday collection (the shimmer spray isn't in stock) at 10% less than RRP!

Ugh I knew this would happen. I got mine from John Lewis where I got free brush set. Not that I paid for any of it but I figured it'd pop up on there after I got it.

I am having such a hard time deciding which one to get right now.

Naomi, Rouge Parade 820 has your name all over it!!!

For some reason she doesn't have it in her swatches, but I think you would love Gigolo (#70). It's a deep plum and one of the best they've ever done.

I don't remember if Gigolo was LE or not, but if it was in the permanent range, then it was silently discontinued.

Naomi, start with a color that you wear often and can go with everything. It can be either a red, pink, orange, or beige. If you like pinks and willing to hunt an LE shade, I think that Rose Grenat would look lovely on you. I second Megdal and katred's recommendations as well. If you can find Gigolo in stores, buy it asap. As for the permanent ones, either Gladys and Greta would be lovely additions.

I thought it was LE, but it never stopped being available up here. Just checked the Guerlain web site and it's no longer listed. Dang.

Thank you, I'll definitely keep an eye out for Gigolo and I'm really liking the look of Gladys.

Just received my holiday Meteorites pearls! They are lovely, but I'm shocked how little there is in there. The weight is 25 g, it used to be 33 g! I got two red pearls though and all in good condition, so not complaining. The packaging is gorgeous too.

It was permanent but discontinued around 2-3 months back.
