WORSHIP THE BALLS- A thread for Guerlain meteorites and the women who love them

[VAL4M]

No thoughts on the Balls...as I have yet to purchase any...though I love all the Terracotta powders and Rouge G's I now have

Love your new avi!

Also was thinking of you a few days ago. I did another huge dekrappification in time for new storage furniture in my studio/office/closet room

WHAT still a ball virgin Fur4elise??? I'm speechless LOL. The bronzer from the Holiday Collection is very nice .... could be a nice highlighter for darker skin too, I think in fact it is a better buy than the meteorite balls if you can only buy one thing of this collection. if I didn't had too much bronzer I would have take it but I realized I just do not use them enough.

God I wish I had the energy to reorganized my stuff, good for you, Hope you will share the final product!

I love this term, "dekrappification". I think I'm going to steal it from you!! I feel I always need to do this, Its never finished no matter how many times I do it. If only it could last...

They are really NICE! They look pink but on the face I do not see any "pinkness" just a nice barely glow. If it is your first meteorites you will love it.

I took the plunge and ordered them. Can't wait to try!

"Ball Virgin!!!" I totally am! Your collection is fabulous! I guess none of the shades have appealed to me...afraid most are too light for my skintone...suggestions?

I promise once I get a chance too, I will take pictures of my new set up. I am loving it!

Absolutely! Now that I am swinging towards a Kimberly Clark way of organizing and consumption...In fact I ordered through ILL a copy of Marie Kondo's book. I think all should dekraapify! It will make you feel so good!

Technically meteorite are a finishing powder so you shouldn`t see any colour, they just add a nice glow to your skin in general. I have to say my favorite are the météorites doree (they are now disc but it was part of the 3 permanent shade before they repackage and reformuate the permanent line) so it it`s worth to see if on EBay you can spot them of a good price on my picture they are in the right colum second row. They are almost all use up, and they are not even my oldest meteorite. I have to say I prefer météorites that have a lot of gold balls .... if you are warm tone like me it will leave a nice golden glow.
Marie Kondo`s book i`m sure if my husband find out what`s that book he will force me to read it! I asked for the new Harry potter book for my birthday instead! LOL

I'm a fellow ball virgin, and I think I'll go with your suggestion too. Thanks!

Awwwww thanks mama! I love the packaging and the subtle sparkle! The scent is unique. Very unlike the LE Terracottas I have! I love that scent! Someone even mentioned there was a LE Terracotta ED Parfum but I was not able to find it.

the meteorite smell like violet, it doesn't smell like the Terracotta ED parfum... you might like lolita lemptika perfume it has the same violet powder smell

While I love the Meteorites powder I am not fond of the violet scent. It is the scent of the lasted LE Terracotta powders I love, like Pause D'ete & Terra Magnifique. You know! I bet it was you who mentioned the Terracotta parfum. I found a couple bottles on eBay but I am super leery of purchasing fake scent.

Well first the perfume terracotta is still up to grab at regular retailer here in Canada .... so I do not know if Hudson bay is shipping to the states but it can be yours for 90$ canadian. I yes terracotta powders do not have the same smell as meteorites.

Oh wow! But I am bummed...I looked at the HB site and no shipping to the US is offered at this time Thanks for the heads up...I'll keep wishing and maybe a bottle will magically make itself available to me

p.s. Take a peek at the Low Buy thread! I finally got up pictures of my new studio/office/closet space furniture and my cleaned up/edited makeup stash. So happy everything is organized and put away nicely.

terracotta perfume doesn;t smell like their makeup

they will probably release it again next summer

Guerlain spring collection now available from Escentual. Use code ESCENTUAL20 for 20% off. There's also a free miniset available! I've ordered the Meteorites and the blush, but there's also two lipsticks.

I just feel the need to give a shout-out to the BALLZ y’all I mentioned in another thread that I have only worn makeup about once a week, so maybe thats part of the magic haha, but using my Medium balls just really makes me feel my best. There’s nothing like a good set of balls!
