Lancome La Roseraie Illuminating Powder Spring 2012

The Spring makeup collections have been bringing us the pretty. It seems every one has many highlights.   From Lancome it's  La Roseraie Illuminating Powder.

 Carved in the shape of the signature Lancome rose, this powder is really a blush. The rose is a pigmented  medium pink shade . The lighter shade mixes in well or can be used as a highlighter on it's own.  It's a shimmery pale seashell pink. Both go on lightly , no doll cheeks here.

This just says Spring all over it and feels like it belongs in the Easter basket. And I mean that in the best way.  While not unlike some other products we've seen, it's so pretty and wearable  and that makes it worth  a look. The hardest part ? Messing up the powder in order  to use it.

$ 42.00 at all Lancome counters.

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Flirt & Candeur / Glossimer in Petillant -Spring 2012

Two new Rouge Coco Shine's make their debut with the Spring collection. These are a perfect representation of the orange lip we saw at the fall shows for spring. What's best about these is that they are not too bright .  They are beautiful shades and easy to wear.

Flirt is  light to medium coral, that leans more peach I think. It brightens you up just enough . Candeur is called pastel pink by Chanel, but  it goes on more sheer, very light peach. So call it peachy pink. This one gives just a hint of color. Both are fabulous not just for Spring but right now if you want a little pop of color for winter. Plus  it's the Rouge Coco Shine formula which makes it very hydrating.

One of the new Glossimers this season is Petillant. It's sheer shimmery peach. Very much like Candeur lipstick but in a gloss form.


All of these are on counter now and will be permanent.
