Following an established tradition, Givenchy recently launched a new Couture Edition collection to the family for 2019. What makes these limited edition — and thus, collectible — are their stunning exterior design, but happily all are also available as part of the permanent lineup … although I have to say that these are wayyyyyy prettier.
It’s been a while since I reviewed anything from Giorgio Armani, so when these products came in, my curiosity was piqued. It’s no secret that I’m all about luxury beauty and as my experience with this brand has always been quite positive, I had high hopes for this selection. Good to know that my instincts are still bang-on.
I don’t know which I like better; the way these blushes apply, or saying “Cheeky Cheeky Bam Bam” … I actually can’t stop repeating it, lol. Clarins came out with some fresh products for Fall 2019 that focus on lips & cheeks, and I’m totally loving this simple take. Of course, the way these all perform doesn’t hurt the cause either.
Earlier this year Caudalie launched some new products, and as this is a brand I’ve always experienced excellent results with, I was really excited to give them a try. True story: as I was preparing my review, my daughter sent me her Christmas wish list (we do things pretty early around here) and I was amazed to see that she’s listed a few of today’s items; I consider that a pretty good endorsement for this brand — this generation knows, trust me.
There is no question that Guerlain is one of the world’s oldest and most venerable fragrance Houses, having brought us such masterpieces as Shalimar, L’Heure Bleue, and Mitsouko. Then in 1999, the brand went in another direction and launched the Aqua Allegoria range, a selection of fragrances that are meant to compliment some of their more opulent creations, but in a fun new way — and all inspired by nature, I might add.
