Do you ever feel everything around you is moving at a crazy pace, hitting you like a freight train, and, although you've adsorbed the impact and moved along with it, you just wish for a moment you could gather your thoughts, let alone catch your breath? Well, that's been my life for the last few months. Anyway, onto the pretty pretties.

With every Collection, Givenchy always put my beautiful mind at ease. The Extravagancia Collection for 2014 Fall/Winter is voguish, darkly edgy, and (as the name would suggest) extravagant!

From the upper leather casing, with its gold embossed pattern, the silver, pyramid-shaped, stud closer, to the stunning textures and color combinations of the products within, the Extravagancia Lip & Eye Palette (8,206 yen) has me, wholeheartedly, under its spell.


I love when palettes come with a generous sized mirror...Bloody Mary anyone?


The Extravagancia Palette features four eye shadows, and a lipstick.


A mauvish-graphite with silver and violet glitter.

A satin, rose-based, brown with a mauvish-tinge and micro silver shimmers.

A satin, pink-based, violet-purple with baby blue micro shimmers.

A pale gold with gold glitter.

Eyeshadows containing larger glitters always make me weary (thank you, Dior), however, the two glittery shadows in the palette put those fears to rest; they applied and blended easily with zero fallout or migration. All four shadows are sickly beautiful! They perform wonderfully, and are perfectly pigmented.

At first, I wasn't convinced with the color of the lipstick in the palette. Why was I doubting my precious givenchy?...I don't know?! Givenchy would never steer my wrong because the lipstick, and the eyeshadows, pair beautifully with each other.


The Blush Memoire De Forme Pop Up Jelly Blush in Rose Extravagant (5,184 yen) has this wet, slightly whipped, bouncy jello-like consistency; It applied flawlessly...lasting all day, and giving the cheeks a beautiful, glow from within flush.

I picked up both of the Le Rouge Lipsticks that were released with the Extravagancia Collection, but in this post, I'll be featuring 208 Rose Extravagant.


Generally, 208 Rose Extravagant (4,644 yen) is not a shade I would reach for in Autumn/Winter. But, once again, Givenchy had the brilliant foresight of Rose Extravagant's exquisite harmony with the season;s eye looks. I like to either dab on the lipstick in a bouncing motion, or work it unto the lips with a brush and tone down the color's intensity. As with all the Le Rouge lipstick, 208 Rose Extravagant is creamy, moisturizing, seriously pigmented, and long wearing.

The lipstick is a warm, yellow-based, pink-blush.

208 Rose Extravagant is a yellow-based, bright (almost neon) rose-pink.

The gel blush is a bright, rosy-pink.
