Guerlain 2009 Imperial Holiday
Guerlain's 2009 Imperial Holiday makeup colors are truly a royal collection filled with sumptuous jewels. Fit for any empress, this season celebrates aristocratic splendor with a refined and balanced touch.
The Ombre Eclat 4 Shades Eye Shadow quad (in Bal de Minuit) is one of my favorites for this season. It's a pretty subdued color palette, but when you put it on, it's just gorgeous. The pearlescent texture in the two taupe shades will create a dreamy and soft smoky lid, while the lingerie pink and gold-white tones bring out the eyes' natural radiance. It's an elegant and sophisticated look without going over the top.
This collection also features two shades of the Rouge G Lipstick (#11 Grace and #12 Gems). I liked Gems because of it's soft rosewood color. It compliments quite well with the eye shadows, giving you a beautiful smile without using a screaming red color. For an even more gentle shade, you an also use the KissKiss Gloss in #809 Rubis Rose (sheer plum chocolate).
To complete the opulent look, use the Meteorites Perles Imperiales for a glowing finish. These multiple-effect pearls are re-formulated in new shades (mauve, pink, and gold) to create that fresh and illuminating complexion that we all crave. For a really fancy accessory, they also offer these pearls in a special Meteorites Voyage Imperial pressed powder compact that's decorated with Swarovski crystals. So lovely!
