Spring has sprung! Time to play with our pretty pastels and soft hues. Les Merveilleuses Laduree Spring 2013 Collection captures the effervescent, romantic, and festive atmosphere of France in Spring.
The collection introduced a few limited edition pieces as well as some new permanent additions to the line.
First up, the Mini Face Color Trios: There were three Limited Edition trios released, retailing for ¥6,300. Isn't the packaging lovely?!
Mini Face Color Trio 101

I found the texture of the Mini Face Color Trios to be a little dry and stiff (101 being the driest), in comparison to the powder products in the permanent collection. Although slightly dry, all three trio's are pigmented, apply and blended easily onto the eyes or cheeks.
New and permanent are the Creamy Eye Color's, available in six shades, and retail for ¥4,200.
The Creamy Eye Color packaging is similar to Ysl's Touche Eclat; a plastic pen style tube, with a brush tip applicator, and click button bottom to disperse the product.
Four Pencil Eyeliners were launched with the collection, 101 and 102 being limited edition, and retailing for ¥2,625.

I passed on the Pencil Eyeliners in 01 and 02 because I have a million black and brown liners. 101 and 102 are just exquisite. 101 is a heavenly grey-based, lavender-blue, which sends my heart a flutter; I don't have a shade like this in my liner collection. 102 is a murky, tarnished, chartreuse-bronze; another complex and unique shade that I just adore.
Similar to the Pencil Eyeliners, I only picked up two of the Creamy Eye Colors. 02 and 05 really caught my attention, and I found the shades very pretty, especially 05.
Cream Cheek Base, limited edition, retailing for ¥4,410. I love Spring lavender packaging of these Cream Cheek Bases!!
Cream Cheek Base 103 and 102.

Also new and permanent, are the five Lip Lacquers, retailing for ¥3,360.
The Lip Lacquers are a liquid lipstick/lipgloss hybrid. I found them to be very moisturizing, but only lasted about 3 hours. Also, for those of you who may be wondering, they are not a stain.

And finally, my Laduree beauty member's gift with purchase: These chocolate cookies with almonds slices were delicious!
The blue macaroons are Laduree's seasonal Marie Antoinette; simply delectable.
Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.
That final shot is just sublime! :O~~~~~~~
ReplyDeleteYou evil, evil temptress!
Just doing my job >;)
DeleteHoly moly! That is QUITE the haul! I love how LadurƩe puts so much emphasis onto the packaging. It seems like the product is also very good too. I would love to visit the actual store one day to try their beauty products as WELL as their scrumptious macarons :)
ReplyDeleteI know! Laduree really does a great job reeling the customer in with the exquisite packaging. Beside having the Laduree beauty counter at Mitsokoshi Ginza, they also have the restaurant on the 2nd floor.
DeleteThis is a topic that's near to my heart... Cheers! Exactly where are your contact details though?

ReplyDeleteregrettably, the palettes were Limited Edition, but I can try to find it for you. Which one are you interested in?
