I received a surprising e-mail a while ago ! I was invited to discover the new X-mas collection of Guerlain @ their offices in Brussel . An offer I couldn't refuse !
Guerlain for me, is a well-know respectable brand that have great eyeshadows, Foundations, fragrances & skin care products .
They also create wonderful packaging for their products ! The packaging, for me, is evenly important ! I'm a visual person and I'm tempted to buy a product if I love the packaging !

(L->R)
Perfumed powdre : Vol De nuit (76,52 Euro)
fragrance : Vol de Nuit
The 'Vol de Nuit' fragrance (Right in picture) is an homage to the novel Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Geurlain has created a perfumed powdre : 'Vol De Nuit' (Left in picture), which is based on the well-known fragrance 'Vol de Nuit'. The powder itself contains subtile gold shimmering which is perfect for the X-mas ! I absolutely love the packaging of these 2 products : the colors, the shape, .. If you look closely you can see that the gold hardware is based on the propellors of an airplane ! Funny detail !

Parure De Nuit (49,94Euro)
This is one of my 2 favorite products in the X-mas collection ! This compact powder has 2 purposes! It contains a face powder & Blush all in 1 lovely package ! This limited edition compact powder is also scented ! You can accentuate your face using the 4 shades and applying it all over ! Or, if you want to sculp your face you can use the 3 pink areas of the compact powder. This is a kind of product that you can also use after the holiday's ! That is exactly why I'm a fan of the Parure de Nuit ! |
 |
Meteorites Perles De Nuit (58,46 Euro)
Guerlain hasn't changed the original formula with this product, but they have created a new harmony to highlight the face even more ! There are 5 colors of smooth pearls : White, Pink, Gold & orange! This is the kind of product that I would buy, because it looks so pretty and it's original because of the pearls ! It is an addition to my make-up collection ! |
 |
Ecrin 4 colors (10 Les Ombres de Nuit) (54,20 Euro)
This lovely product is my N°1 favorite of the collection ! It has 4 colors (1 mat and 3 shimmering) The colors are exactly what I would use for creating my festive look ! It's also perfect to use after the holiday's. The blue and green color suit almost every eye color . The black and grey are basics, but they have a nice pigmentation ! The make-up artist also told me that You can even dip your brush in to water when using the eyeshadows if you want even more pigmentation ! |
 |
Rouge de Guerlain(35,07 Euro)
They have created a new shade for this collection : Rouge G le Brillant ! Suits every skin tone, I believe ! |
 |
Then it was time for my make-over using the X-mas collection products.... |

If I could only grab every single thing in that fab room and take it with me ;-) .... |

Tada, ..... The result ! Loving it ! |
