Lise Watier Rose Nudes 12-Color Eyeshadow Palette ($65 CAD):
Last spring Lise Watier released the Simply Nudes 12-Color Eyeshadow Palette and for Spring 2017 the brand has a new variation of the original. With 12 cool-tone shadows with a good mix of mattes and shimmers, the palette comes in a simple and elegant rectangular compact. The lid features some minimalist graphic print and the inside is a large mirror. You also get a dual-ended brush applicator as an added bonus.

Like last year's palette, the colors included are very natural. Everything has a buttery and creamy texture and while there aren't any standout shades that made my jaw drop, all the colors are nicely pigmented. With that said, the shimmers in general are on the sheerer side but I think they were intentionally formulated that way to help create a very soft and fresh finish.

Lise Watier Blossom Beauty Blush ($35 CAD):
This is a beautiful powder blush housed in a lovely round compact. The lid is adorned with a very pretty lily design while the powder itself is pressed with a lily flower. The blush looks like a sophisticated rose in the pan but when worn on the cheeks it appears more like a warm peachy rose with a subtle dash of golden shimmers. The formulation is very silky and smooth; the pigmentation isn't super intense but the blush is buildable.

Lise Watier Bicolor Lipsticks ($25 CAD each):
Beautifully packaged in a reflective silver casing printed with an abstract lily design in purple, the Bicolor Lipsticks are dual-colored lipsticks that can be used to create a subtle ombre effect. Naked Glow consists of a light creamy nude and a soft rose nude while Blushing Glow combines a shimmery medium pink and a creamy pinky red. The distinction between the two colors of Naked Glow is pretty subtle so it would be difficult to create an ombre look with the duo but the pink and red within in Blushing Glow are distinct enough to create a nice gradient. See swatches below of the two shades with their colors blended.

Formulation-wise, both lipsticks are very creamy and lightweight. The colors are hydrating and while both are nicely pigmented, Nake Glow will appear slightly patchy unless you have very pale lips. The wear of these is just okay as the slick formulation transfers easily.
