The Guerlain Make Up Thread

LOOK at the packaging...a work of art in itself!

I'm quite tempted by this palette...it's perfect IMO

Yes, the packaging is sooo beautiful. And I like that palette too, along with this one:

I don't think I'll buy it though, since I'm more excited for Chanel's eyeshadow quad for fall 2010. And I can't afford both .

 

[The_Ida]

I can't afford either of them I don't wear much eye shadow anyway, but I so love the packaging...

Me too. I'm desperate to buy it because it will suit my dark brown eyes so well. I LOVE Guerlain make-up. Their cosmetics look are like a jewelery boxes.

Guerlain makeup is being phased out in Denmark I think. Everything is 50% is one of the two department stores stocking Guerlain...sad news

BUT I got this:
Guerlain liquid eyeliner

It's a super beautiful brown liquid eyeliner. I appiled it after I applied mascara, excuse the mess I'm gonna take a nap to test how long it lasts (and, well, because I have the flu)

 

[farou7a]

is it color-stay?

 

[The_Ida]

^Yes! It held up through my nap and lasted all night too! It didn't smudge even though the weather is super humid and I sweat like a pig Oh, and amazingly enough, it doesn't irritate my eyes.

 

[farou7a]

^ oh my gosh! its on my list of things to buy!

thank you love

 

[flyme2themoon]

I've been meaning to buy a new liquid eye liner, and that one looks & sounds perfect. Thank you for the photos & review The_Ida!

 

[BibiRose]

Did you hear the price for the fall 2010 eyeshadow palettes? It's 84$ . I want them so much but now I suppose I will not be able to afford it. In my country cosmetic prices are even higher than in the US...

I recently bought the Guerlain Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder in the blonde color, but I was wondering what brush to use with this product?
What specific brush do others that have this powder use?

sephora.com

 

[Tiiu]

^Isn't there anyone on this forum who uses this product?

 

[miu_miu]

Tiiu, I've had that in the past - I'd recommend a big fluffy powder brush like MAC 150, or if you're quite pale something like the MAC 187 for an all over glow and then use a blush brush like MAC 129 if you want to use it more like a blush

^evertyhing is soooo beautifully packaged. I think I would be scared of using it as I am the kind to keep breaking all my make up and get smudges and marks on everything!

 

[Adrina]

I like the primer for eyeshadows, I apllied it before putting the eyeshadows, and its long lasting. Anyone tried that? And their eyeshadows compact have the beautiful colour.
