Guerlain Summer 2008 – Illumination galore!

May 30, 2008 Paris B 13 Comments

I am truly sorry if you have been coming by and getting some server error. I assure you its getting looked into so there should be no future problems.

To compensate, here’s some Guerlain Summer 2008 eye candy. Guerlain is giving skin a pearlescent sheen by having pearl illuminating products.

I like my Meteorites. They make a nice highlighter even if it doesn’t look like much initially. So, I’m quite keen to check out the Meteorites Illuminating Perfecting pressed powder even if I’ve read some reviews that say the users did not quite like it.

I read that the Meteorite Perles light-diffusing perfecting primer is nice too, but I’m not too much of a primer person. That said, I’ll check it out at the counter and report when I see it.

Lastly, KissKiss pearl glosses. I don’t like lip glosses in general but I always make an exception for Guerlain’s Kiss Kiss lipgloss. They are so lovely and not sticky at all! I wonder how these will fare.

I do have one comment though. Those bumps and balls everywhere give me the goosebumps! 😛 Reminds me of that Chanel palette with the sequinned surface from Spring 2007. That one gave me the goosebumps too!

Will be back with a report when I see and test them! Have a good weekend all!

    All these reviews on Guerlain is making my wallet potentially itch actually–muaha!
    I just came back from a facial and was asked to buy some dodgy “gold” facial. I turned it down, thinking how much makeup I could buy with RM400! Oh yeah!

    Nikki: It does give you the goosebumps huh?

    Reeka: Could you email me with the problem you are having reading this?

    Jojoba: 🙂 To each their own! I want to see it just to see if it looks as pretty in real life.

    Monstro: Eeks! But nice skin is the best foundation of all!

    Geekchic: Lol… A house is worth saving up for 🙂

    Hey Paris, do you think the Mystic suites oily skin? It’s suppose to give glow to skin but would it makes oily skin looks worst? I am so tempted to get one..

      I’ve read conflicting views. Some girls with oily skin say that Mythic Meteorites make them look oily. Some don’t. I don’t have oily skin and the glow isn’t perceptible because it isn’t shimmery. I can’t help you otherwise I’m afraid. You could try reading my other reviews here (loose balls) and here (illuminating pressed powder) and see if it helps. Or you can try the Mattifying pressed powder available at counters now (2011)
