Guerlain · Terracotta Sun Trio & Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria
From the brand that has literally written the book on bronzers (Guerlain actually created the first compact powdered bronzer), comes Terracotta Sun Trio — a beautiful triad that can multitask as well as enhance. And with warmer, sunnier weather just around the corner, there’s no better time to switch up your usual scent for something fresher … something like Bergamote Calabria, the brand’s latest addition to the Aqua Allegoria fragrance range. For the record, both of these lovelies are doing an amazing job of helping me to ignore the grey, gloomy & dismal rainy day outside of my window right now … le sigh
Maison Margiela · Replica Fragrances & Blur Filter
When fashion label Maison Margiela launched Replica in 2012, the concept was simple and effective; to create a fragrance library of ‘scent memories’ that had the ability to evoke an emotional response from the wearer as only fragrance can. Well, they succeeded.
Kiehl’s · Original Musk Blend N°1 Eau de Toilette & Bath and Shower Cleanser
Today is Valentine’s Day and I wanted to celebrate this day of love with something universal, such as this Original Musk Blend N°1 duo from Kiehl’s. The story goes that the recipe for this fragrance was originally created in the 1920’s at the Kiehl’s Apothecary, then forgotten, then rediscovered in the 1950’s in a vat labelled “Love Oil”, then rechristened Original Musk for its 1963 debut. Quite the interesting love story, no?
Prada Fragrance · La Femme & L’Homme
The latest releases from Prada created by Daniela Andrier, La Femme et L’Homme Prada, are blurring the gender lines — a concept which is perfectly captured and epitomized in the brand’s campaign video. With starkly elegant packaging that mimics the texture of Saffiano leather goods, these fragrances are “designed to take the wearer on a voyage through place, memory and time, where somehow there appears a sensual meeting point for these distinct female and male fragrances to consummate an aesthetic relationship through experimentation and tradition” Umm, Okay.
L’Oréal Paris · Infallible Total Cover Foundation, Concealer/Corrector Kits & Beauty Sponge
L’Oréal Paris recently added to the Infallible range with the launch of several new face products, including Total Cover Foundation, Total Cover Concealing and Contouring Kit, Total Cover Professional Colour Correcting Kit and 3 new Blend Artist beauty sponges. I was kindly sent all 12 shades of the foundation to try and while I personally prefer light to medium coverage, I was curious to see how these would compare to one of my faves, the Pro-Matte version.
