Violette, Guerlain's Makeup Creative Director, created THE Fall look to have this year: The “signature mystic peacock” look. To recreate her stunning blue-eyed glam, I selected three products.

Ombres G Eyeshadow Quad shade No.360 – Mystic Peacock

This eyeshadow quad is one of the six palette options Guerlain released. This collection has three “star shades” (n.360, n.555, n.530 ). Today we will focus mainly on n.360 and the beautiful, deep shades of blue, brown and copper captured inside its case. Thus, this eyeshadow quad represents the nuances and shades of a peacock's feathers.

Using a remarkably smooth formula enriched in Rose oil, the shades glide and blend onto the lids without any effort. With a highly pigmented formula, the eyeshadows deliver bursts of colour. Guerlain also decided to play with finishes, including a satin, a matte, a metallic and a pearl shade. Also, the palette is complete with two applicators: one mousse-like and the other slimmer for sharp lines.

Noir G Mascara

To add contrast to your eyes, Guerlain released the Noir G mascara. Offering a 24h volume and curl effect to the lashes. It does finish off your look. Also hidden inside its black formula are midnight blue and ebony pigments. This gives the mascara an even darker appearance on the lash. Flutter your lashes like a butterfly with significant volume. The brush applicator is curved, allowing you to get close to the root of your lashes as well as have a lifting effect on the lashes.

Rouge G 530 Majestic Rose lipstick with Nymph Rose case

The Nymph Rose case is inspired by the Wood Nymph butterfly and is part of the Luxurious Velvet Metal Collection.

To finish the look, you will need the Rouge G No.530. Known for their luxurious appearance, these lipsticks are vibrant and come in 6 butterfly shades. The lipsticks have a rich combination of pigments offering a velvety, metallic matte look. I know it sounds impossible, right? Guerlain didn't stop there. Moreover, the lipsticks provide a good six hours of wear. Star of the collection, the Rouge G cases are elegantly decorated with metallic patterns inspired by the reflections found on butterfly wings.

My Review

I was super excited to try out the super bright shades. I have to say that Guerlain always chooses the right textures and finishes to complement each part of the face. Also, I adored the Ombre G quad, with its super easy application ( by finger). The colours were easy to blend, and wow, the colour was popping! Violette's look is perfectly balanced, bringing a slight tint to the lips with no.530. The lipstick felt comfortable; more importantly, it didn't move throughout my day. The mascara was also lovely but better suited to a longer lash. It was easy to apply but also very simple to remove. I love the Fall collection and am glad to see its stepped away from the traditional autumn tones.

For the base, I am currently loving the new Parure Gold Skin Matte Foundation very much. The finish is natural and radiant but not shiny.
