Guerlain Spring 2018 Collection: Review and Swatches
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Guerlain's Spring 2018 Collection is offering a handful of gorgeous pink-themed makeup goodies. Designed to illuminate the complexion and provide a glowy hue, the limited edition range is available starting February. I've got full reviews and swatches to share with you today so to read on, click......
Guerlain Spring 2018 Collection | Meteorites Heart Shape Face Powder: Review and Swatches

Guerlain Spring 2018 | Meteorites Heart Shape Face Powder ($71 CAD):
Housed in a lightweight silver compact bearing a simple heart-themed print on the lid, the Meteorites Heart Shape Face Powder is a pressed powder trio designed to provide an illuminating effect on the face. You get two shades of blush and one shade of highlight. I expected a more pigmented formulation but all three shades are super sheer albeit lightweight and beautifully-fragranced. In fact, all three barely provide any pigmentation or visible shimmers. They are very much identical to the classic Meteorites Pearls. Instead of providing an obvious flush of pink or a streak of sheen, the powder gives a subtle blurring and brightening effect that can be applied all over the face. So depending on what it is you are looking for, this may or may not be the product for you.

Guerlain Spring 2018 | Meteorites CC Glow Colour Correcting Highlighter ($50 CAD):
Housed in a twist-up pen equipped with a bristle applicator, this is a liquid color corrector designed to camouflage discoloration and provide a natural luminosity. I have here the shade "03 Pink", a pale baby pink free of visible sparkles or shimmers. The creamy formulation is a bit thicker than that of the YSL Touche Eclat but it blends beautifully to provide a flattering, brightening effect. Conceptually, this is similar to the YSL Touche Eclat; it is a concealing highlighter that can be used on any high point of the face or areas of discoloration. I did experience some noticeable creasing on my undereye area so I would recommend using this only on the brow bone and the top of the cheeks.

Guerlain Spring 2018 Collection | KissKiss LoveLove Heart-Shaped Lipstick: Review and Swatches
Guerlain | KissKiss LoveLove Lipsticks
Guerlain Spring 2018 | KissKiss LoveLove Lipstick ($44 CAD):
Molded with an adorable heart-shaped bullet and packaged in a luxurious pink opal case, the KissKiss LoveLove Lipsticks are formulated with mango butter, commiphora oil, and hyaluronic spheres. Available in five medium-coverage shades, the lipsticks are super hydrating with an alluring sheen. "570 Coral" is a light warm pink while "571 Beige" is a natural peach nude. Both shades are decently-pigmented and buildable but there is some settling within the fine lines. Additionally, the wear isn't that great. Both shades are prone to transferring so they will wear off with just some light drinking. With said, these are some really cute and collector-worthy lipsticks. If you are a fan of sheer and moisturizing lip colors, then you will definitely enjoy these!
