Chanel Ombres Contraste Eyeshadow Duo in #70 Rose Majeur
I am a total sucker for pinks and purples. Somehow, I got suckered into buying not 1 but 2 pink-purple duos…from the same brand in the same season! I went from not wanting anything from the Chanel Notes du Printemps collection, to buying both the Illusion d’Ombre (here), and this Chanel Ombres Contraste Eyeshadow Duo in … Continue reading
Chanel Illusion d’Ombres #92 Diapason & #93 Impulsion
After my initial survey of the Chanel Spring 2014 collection (here), I didn’t think I would be picking up anything… until Kate the Driveller planted the Illusion d’Ombres in my mind. And after swatching them for myself, I was convinced that what the rest of the Spring collections seem to be missing, is neatly packed … Continue reading
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders: Dim & Radiant light

When I heard they were launching a distinctively new Indigo Collection, I was intrigued, and very grateful when Victoria and her team sent me … Continue reading
Guerlain Les Voilettes Translucent Compact Powder
Just before the Crazy Paris collection (reviewed here) launched last year, Guerlain released 2 beautiful base makeup products – the Tenure de Perfection (reviewed here) and the Les Voilettes Translucent Compact Powder. I was so overwhelmed by all the Holiday 2013 goodies that I completely missed them and only picked them up “accidentally” during the … Continue reading

Foundations are like lingerie, essential for uplifting the feminine beauty, but finding the perfect fit can often be tricky. So when you find a certain brand with the perfect magical formula, it’s as if you have found your inner soulmate. For me, the secret had always been in Guerlain.
