GUERLAIN TERRA AZZURRA BY EMILIO PUCCI – the ultimate in luxury makeup for a bride

Monday, May 7th, 2012

GUERLAIN TERRA AZZURRA BY EMILIO PUCCI
2012

Guerlain and Emilio Pucci are joining forces to celebrate a glamorous and colourful summer.

“Guerlain by Emilio Pucci” embodies the union of two prestigious Houses in perfect synergy. Emilio Pucci, the Florentine fashion brand whose cult prints have been evoking Italian colour and a refined way of life since the fifties. And Guerlain, the jewel of French cosmetics, whose creations have represented Parisian luxury, knowhow and excellence since 1828. These rich worlds are combining in a collection of eleven products with accents of the Italian Riviera, created by Olivier Échaudemaison, Guerlain Creative Director, and Laudomia Pucci, Pucci Image Director.

Anyone who loves their fashion will know how iconic the Pucci brand is and I am always writing about how much I love Guerlain products and when I saw this collection I was so excited! I know how much my brides love to treat themselves to special products/ treats on their wedding day and this collection, to me is one that brides will absolutely adore, as not only are you receiving amazing quality cosmetics, the fact that the packaging/ pouches are in the iconic Pucci print is the ultimate in luxury cosmetics and fashion! Here are the details of these gorgeous products (which I believe will become collectors editions) :

TERRA AZZURRA BRONZING POWDER & BLUSH £51.00 / €68.00

The SUMMER’S couture powder
The star of the collection, this exquisitely beautiful object combines two success stories: Guerlain’s legendary Terracotta powder and Emilio Pucci’s iconic prints. The world of beauty and fashion unite in a single case to beautifully enhance a seductive woman. Undoubtedly a collector’s item in the making.
A SUN-KISSED powder
Halfway between a bronzer and blusher, this hybrid powder with a gentle, lightweight formula offers a universal harmony of four shades to meet every desire, from the softest to the most intense.
• For a natural effect: apply just the bronzing shade all over the face.
• For a bronzed complexion: blend the three blusher shades and sweep along the top
of the cheekbones to sculpt the face.
A DESIGN-forward case
Smooth and oval like a pebble, it is held delicately in the palm of the hand. Its secret? Its rounded form created in ebony-coloured varnished wood, a nod to the panelling of a Riva yacht, combining beauty and practicality in equal measure. For the ultimate in sophistication, it is presented in an accessory pouch printed with the Pucci motif.

MÉTÉORITES PERLES D’AZUR ILLUMINATING POWDER £37.00 / €48.00

TAN-perfecting powder
These cult must-have multi-coloured little pearls created by Guerlain in 1987 are adopting their summer attire. In a nod to Pucci shades, they are being enriched with a corrective blue pearl. All the magic of an ingenious powder, the unequalled formula for a flawless complexion.
A LUMINOUS complexion
Formulated like the classic Météorites Perles, the Perles d’Azur beautifully adapt to the demands of the sun. The idea? Three targeted and instant benefits to create a summer glow, thanks to the combination of six colours that even out and correct every skin tone, with a de rigueur ultra-luminous and delicately translucent result. Already tanned skin is subtly set off with a fine complexion-enhancing and imperceptible veil.
BOOSTER
• Corrective effect: blue and pink counter the yellow tones in tired complexions.
• Skin-evening effect: beige and orange warm up the complexion and create an even tan.
• Illuminating effect: ivory and white gold are light reflectors without a whitening effect.
Their incredibly stylish round case is adorned with the Pucci print in contrasting colours with a graphic motif.

The COLLECTOR’S brush £28.00 / €34.00

An elegant firm and generous Kabuki-style powder brush designed to subtly crush
the Météorites Perles d’Azur pigments or pick up just the right amount of Terra
Azzurra Powder. Its broad metallic ring encircling its natural midnight blue bristles
adds a chic detail. It is stored in its on-trend Pucci print pouch that is perfectly in
line with summer’s glamorous tone.

TERRACOTTA NAIL LAQUER

£17.50 / €22.00

Two bold, fresh shades that stand out against a sky blue background. Irresistible on short, groomed nails and worn unmatching on hands and feet, these peppy polishes are a must-have fashion touch to complement a two-piece swimsuit or an ethereal cocktail dress.
• 01 Paradisio: a cheery, luminous coral pink with a high-lacquer finish. Unfailingly sublime on tanned fingers.
• 02 Riviera: a powerful electric indigo blue with a subtly metallic finish. Pure rock ‘n’ roll
on golden toes.
Their round, transparent bottles are topped with a black lacquered wood lid for
a restrained touch of elegance.

TERRACOTTA MOISTURISING GLOSS £21.00 / €27.50

Three sunny harmonies for these radiant glosses with a fresh gourmand syrup texture to light up the lips with sensual high shine.
Three shades and three names taken from three iconic Pucci silk scarves.
• 10 Porto Fino: an incredibly shiny coral pink to set off a sun-kissed glow to perfection.
• 11 Porto Ercole: a sensual brown to pair with a spice-toned complexion.
• 12 Porto Azzurro: an unruly indigo blue, as transparent on the lips as it is vibrant
in the bottle.

ÉCRIN 4 COULEURS £37.00 / €51.00

A blazing palette in delectably warm tones, whose four shades allow a host of combinations, from the softest to the hottest, to play with colour and electrify the eyes against golden skin.
Its exclusive sophisticated metallic brown case beautifully sets off this summer harmony.

LE 2 DE GUERLAIN MASCARA

£25.00 / €34.00

The iconic Mascara le 2 de Guerlain has been produced in new packaging with a chocolate lacquer finish for a unique and stylish touch. This season, it is embracing summer with this elegant blue that opens up the eyes and offers the lashes bold length and curl and incredible definition

KHÔL KAJAL £23.00 / €32.00

This intense kohl is returning for summer in an indigo blue.
• Applied solely along the inside of the lower eyelid, it underlines and enhances the eyes with a provocative depth.
• Worked in a thick line along the upper lashes, it adds modern sophistication and widens the eyes.
In an exquisite touch, the brown lid is decorated with two fine ribbons – one in indigo blue, the other coral – in the Guerlain style.

Spring 2012 makeup collection by GUERLAIN – GUERLAIN les ROSES et le NOIR

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

The Spring 2012 makeup collection by Guerlain is absolutely gorgeous – the products are so luxurious, pretty and absolutely perfect for brides to wear on their wedding day.

Not only are the formulations of the products themselves of the highest quality, the components themselves are very unique. Your wedding day is the one day when you want to feel special and using these products to create your wedding day makeup look will be an absolute pleasure for any bride.

The story begins with a flutter of lashes…
NOIR G DE GUERLAIN
The first refillable exceptional complete mascara with an integrated mirror from Guerlain

In 2009, Guerlain revolutionised the lipstick world by presenting Rouge G, a unique lipstick that looks like a cosmetic jewel, designed by Lorenz Baümer. In 2012, the magic continues… Noir G is the first Guerlain mascara to combine the extravagant luxury of a jewel case with an extraordinary formula for perfectly defined eyes.

TALISMAN
Pull: there is a click and the mirror is revealed. Twist: a sleight of hand and a brush appears.
Noir G is refillable to belong to you and no-one else.
PERFECT BLACK
Noir G has been formulated on the basis of blacker, glossier, new-generation Ultra Black pigments. A magnifying effect amplifies the intensity and depth of the black. Noir G’s black is the purest there is, unique depth, maximum power of contrast, extremely.
3D VISION
Noir G’s supple and generous texture delivers a three-dimensional result. Its volumising formula coats the lashes to the max. Lengthening, it stretches and elongates every lash, even the shortest and finest. Curling, it coats the lashes in a protective film to maximise and set an outrageous curl. All without the slightest smudge or risk of the formula flaking.
AN EXCEPTIONAL BRUSH
An ingenious brush for an exceptional mascara. Noir G’s brush is soft and supple for perfect, fast and even distribution over all the lashes. Narrow and extremely easy to handle, it glides everywhere, catching and wrapping around every lash above and below. The lashes are transformed: perfectly defined, denser and cloaked in a new intensity.
AN EXCEPTIONAL FRAGRANCE
The House of Guerlain has created a signature fragrance with delicate notes for Noir G.

MÉTÉORITES CRUEL GARDÉNIA
Iridescent Illuminating Powder – Limited edition

This incredibly light and fine illuminating powder lights up the skin with a subtly iridescent veil.
To reveal the radiance of the complexion apply all over with the Météorites powder brush.
To sculpt the face add in highlighting touches, using the skin-enhancing power of light rather than shade.

ÉCRIN 4 COULEURS
Long-Lasting Eyeshadows, Captivating Colours

STUNNING EYE COMPACTS FOR BRIDES:

11 LES ROSES IRIDESCENT frosted pink with minute pearl particles, MATTE intense pink with an ultra-gentle matte effect.
VELVET SATIN: raspberry pink with a velvety finish, and metallic and hypnotic. ALCATAR’EYES: violet. For a look that is fresh and enticing.
12 LES AQUA: Shimmering IRIDESCENT petrol blue, sophisticated MATTE navy, VELVET SATIN turquoise with perfect glide.
ALCATAR’EYES glacier blue with magnetic shine. For a sophisticated and stunning look.

ROUGE G DE GUERLAIN- PINK COLLECTION
Exceptional Complete Lipstick- Limited edition
AN ODE TO PINK

These four shades are a declaration of love to pink, glamour and real style.
To avoid having to choose between creaminess and radiance, beauty and comfort, a magic formula: a dash of ruby powder for spectacular radiance, a few spheres of hyaluronic acid to smooth and plump up the lips, a hint of filling Gugul resin, plumping Tiger Grass, and wild mango
butter for perfect hydration.

72 ROSE INNOCENT: pure and iridescent … Truly irresistible.
73 ROSE ENSOLEILLÉ: creamy and luscious, its accents set the lips alight.
74 ROSE PIQUANT: a sumptuous pink with outrageous radiance.
75 ROSE BARBARE: a false fuchsia, incandescent and provocative

And for the finishing touch to your wedding makeup look:
KISSKISS GLOSS Extreme Shine – Radiant Colour

This season the lips are pretty in pink. Ultra-sheer raw ingredients are giving way entirely to pigments. These shimmering agents cloak the smile in a crystalline film. The gel texture melts
over the lips, transforming into a comfortable film with long-lasting shine.

869 ROSE IN BLOOM: pure pink.
870 CHERRY PINK: a gourmand pastel.
871 FROSTED ROSE: an off-white with delicate, subtle pink mother-of-pearl particles
872 FLUSH PINK: an intense fuchsia.

NOIR G DE GUERLAIN £35.00 / €47.00

PRIORI® Lash Recovery Serum – clinically tested to enhance lashes in just two weeks

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

Eye-catching News: Introducing PRIORI® Lash Recovery Serum!

PRIORI® introduces Lash Recovery Serum with Triple Lipopeptide Complex™ – the newest product in The Anti-Aging Authority’s Target Skin Therapy™ line.

I’m a huge fan of lash enhancement serums, as I do believe that they do work – you must just make sure that you use them as directed and make sure that you use them regularly (this is so important to make sure that they work). There are many on the market – some are definitely more effective than others and this is a very effective product and is perfect to use in the run up to your wedding if you want your lashes to look their best on your wedding day.

Formulated to dramatically enhance the appearance of eyelashes and eyebrows in as little as two weeks, PRIORI® Lash Recovery Serum is the first and only prostaglandin-freelash enhancer that utilizes three different potent lipopeptides, which work in synergy for amazing results, helping make lashes and brows look fuller, thicker and more voluptuous.

This anti-ageing booster for lash recovery was clinically tested (results attached) to enhance lashes in only two weeks – a technological breakthrough. There was an increase in length and up to 27.75% increase in eyelash thickness and density.

PRIORI® Lash Recovery Serum (£79) provides fast, clinically proven results, and is formulated specifically to reduce the potential for irritation.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: With clean hands, apply one stroke with the applicator brush to the base of upper eyelashes, from the inner to outer corner. Follow same procedure for brows, covering entire eyebrow area. Eye area should be clean and free of makeup and/or creams prior to application. Use once daily, at bedtime.

Amazing semi-permanent eyelash extensions by EYELUSH

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Last weekend I worked at an amazing wedding and one of the bridesmaids had the most amazing eyelash extensions – many of my brides opt for semi-permanent eyelash extensions and are always asking me for recommendations – I have seen good and not so good extensions and I am very fussy about who I recommend. I was so impressed with these eyelash extensions, that I asked for the details of who applied them for her, so that I could write about them on my blog – they really do look gorgeous – here are the details:

Strong smokey eye makeup for a bride – get the look

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

More and more brides are asking me to create a smokey, stronger eye makeup on their wedding day. Most of these brides though still want to keep the smokey eye more of a ‘bridal smoky eye’ , which is a softer version of what a call a ‘party smokey eye’!

There are some brides though, who love darker smokey eye makeup and wear a lot of eye makeup on a day to day basis and want to also wear a lot of eye makeup on their wedding day – all brides are different and it is absolutely fine to do this, but you have to use the correct products and application techniques, so that your eye makeup photographs well and stays on all day.

I created the makeup look in these photographs during a photoshoot I did with the fabulous photographer Rosie Parsons (www.rosieparsons.com) and it is a look that many brides who look through my portfolio say that they love, so here is the list of the exact products that I used on this photo shoot (which are all by Daniel Sandler Cosmetics are are available from www.danielsandler.com)

Re-texturising Face Primer apply all over face after moisturiser
Catwalk Compact Foundation applied with a foundation brush
Invisible Veil Loose Powder to set the base
Mineral Blusher in shade Hush Pink apply a small amount to the apple of the cheek

Eyes -ensure that you apply the loose face powder to the eyelids to create a ‘base’ and to avoid eyeshadows creasing.
Apply Cedar Matte eyeshadow from lash line to contour
Apply Dark Grey Matte Eyeshadow from lash line to contour (on top of the cedar) and then along the lower lashline
Then take the Sheer Satin Thunder Eyeshadow and apply on the eyelid to add a little shimmer to the eye and avoid the colour looking flat
Line the top and bottom lashline with the Velvet Waterproof Eyeliner in Black Velvet and also line the inner rim if you want to, for more definition
Curl your lashes and apply the Baby Jet Mascara

Make sure that you hold a tissue under your eye to catch any eyeshadow from dropping down and clean under the eye area after with your foundation brush

Luxury Lipstick in shade Pucker only apply a small amount to the lips, patting the product on with your finger tips and avoid lip gloss if possible – remember the focus it to be on the eyes

The smokey eye makeup look is a look that you are really going to need to practise. Remember, you will be having photographs taken in daylight as well as indoors after, so it is really important to make sure that the makeup is perfect – also have to hand cotton buds to soften any hard lines and blend your eye makeup well. I would also recommend taking photographs of your makeup after you have practised, so you can see how it looks on film.

Enhance growth and shine to your eyelashes with M2 Beaute Serum and Revitalizing Gloss

Wednesday, August 17th, 2011

ALL A FLUTTER FOR POWER LASH DUO GROW

The revolutionary “M2 Beauté” serum and gloss duo increases the length, fullness and strength of your eyelashes!

There are many brides who still want to have eyelash extensions for their wedding day, but this year especially I have noticed a big increase in brides-to-be who are looking to enhance their own eyelashes (rather than go for extensions) and are therefore asking me to recommend products that they can use in the run up to their wedding day. This particular product is my most recommended as I have used it myself and noticed a BIG difference to my own eyelashes.

It may not be the least expensive product on the market, but I do believe that you get what you pay for, as the price is higher than most other brands I have tried, but the results have exceeded any other brand I have so far tried.

Women today want to look beautiful naturally, without constantly having to resort to additional decorative cosmetic products and naturally full, long, strong eyelashes scream health, vitality and sex appeal.

For anyone wanting to optimize the beauty of their eyes, and for those who suffer from sparse or short eyelashes, there is now M2 Beauté Eyelash Activating Serum and Eyelash Revitalizing Gloss. This highly effective duo contains active ingredients and nutritional components that promote the fullness, length and strength of lashes along with condition, definition and shine. If applied daily, lashes not only become longer, fuller, stronger, healthier, shinier and more defined, but may also acquire a darker tone and harmonious curl, which makes the additional application of mascara almost superfluous.

The first visible results can be seen after 6 to 8 weeks with maximum results achieved by week 16.

THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN EYELASH ACTIVATING SERUM

The key active complex *MDN∗ is a prostaglandin analogue, which in an alternative form has its use in ophthalmology. This modified and carefully dosed ingredient compound stimulates the eyelashes at their roots increasing the number of lashes, extending the eyelash growth phase and delaying the cycle of lash loss. In keeping with the M2BEAUTÉ company philosophy, the active serum contains only ingredients scientifically proven to be safe and effective. Unlike its US competitors, M2 Beauté Eyelash Activating Serum does not require a prescription and does not contain any dubious ingredients.

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONING COMPONANTS

Five carefully balanced nutritional and moisturizing ingredients:

• Panthenol (Vitamin B5) dispenses moisture supporting shine

• Biotin (Vitamin B7) strengthens lashes and delays the cycle of lash loss

• Hyaluronic acid keeps the lashes moisturized and healthy

• Prodew 300 absorbs and binds moisture

• Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) binds moisture and provides the lashes with more elasticity and flexibility

*Methylamido-Dihydro-Noralfaprostal

THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN EYELASH REVITALIZING GLOSS

In addition to the nourishing, moisture regulating ingredients Panthenol (vitamin B5) and Hydrolysed Collagen, the GLOSS also contains Copper Tripeptide 1. This innovative active ingredient creates a healthy skin environment, increases collagen production and combats free radicals keeping the eye area healthy and supporting hair growth. Its unique ingredients not only measurably support growth but also lend the lashes noticeable definition and an expressive silky shine.

APPLICATION

Apply M2 Beauté Eyelash Activating Serum directly to the base of the lash line on the upper eyelids in the evening, after thoroughly cleansing the eye area. This fluid, transparent gel is applied with the aid of a special brush. Eyelash Revitalizing Gloss is applied morning and night directly to the lashes for visibly seductive lashes. Each vial contains enough serum to last a minimum of 4 months of recommended use.

M2 Beauté is available in Harrods and on the M2Beaute website (www.M2BEAUTE.COM) M2LASHES Eyelash Activating Serum contains 5 ml and costs £120.00 (this works out as less than £1 per day) and the Eyelash Revitalizing Gloss contains 8ml and costs £45

About M2BEAUTÉ – EFFECTIVE INGREDIENT BEAUTY CARE

M2BEAUTÉ makes natural beauty possible through effective ingredient cosmetics. The company focuses on manufacturing cosmetic products with innovative ingredients that are scientifically proven effective and that improve one’s natural appearance. Product development is based on the latest insights from medical research.

Applying eye makeup – a quick an easy guide to make your eyes look bigger and brighter

Friday, April 8th, 2011

I’m often asked for tip and tricks on how to make eyes look bigger – most brides-to-be say that they want their eyes to be the main feature of their wedding day makeup and they want to apply eye makeup and make their eyes stand out, but without looking heavy.

If you are applying your own wedding makeup and are not used to wearing eye makeup (there are a lot of ‘mascara only girls’ out there)!! , I want to give you an easy to follow, quick way that isn’t complicated and will make your eyes look stunning in your wedding day photographs.

When I meet a bride for her wedding day rehearsal, I always give her my large portfolio to look through for inspiration. The photographs in this article are from my own portfolio and is a look I created for a bridal photoshoot. So many brides ask for this look and love the eye makeup on the bride in the photograh, so I thought I would give you an easy guide on how you can create this look. Before you apply your eye makeup, it is essential that you apply a flawless foundation and always an under eye concealer, to make the area clean and to create the perfect base for your eyeshadows. Always set your base with a dusting of loose powder (don’t forget your eyelids)!

I used Daniel Sandler Cosmetics on the photo shoot, so here is an exact list of the eye products I used:

1) Use Eyeshadow 1 brush to apply your eyeshadows.

2) Take Opal Mineral Eyeshadow and apply to your browbone.

3) Take Rosy Tan Polychromatic Eyeshadow and apply to your eyelid. Apply a couple of coats – the eyeshadow brush I have recommended will make applying the eyshadow so easy – it is the perfect size.

4) Take the new Velvet Waterproof Eyeliner in shade Grey – this eyeliner is waterproof – it’s the perfect product for a wedding day) and apply the eyeliner right next to the top and bottom lash line. Then take the Smudger Brush and gently soften the line, so it doesn’t look too hard.

5) Curl your eyelashes and apply the Baby Jet Mascara

Some ladies believe that eye makeup is complicated and sometimes panic about this part of their makeup routine – if you follow the above steps, you will be amazed at how easy it is! The products are so easy to apply and are so sheer and pretty, you really can’t make a mistake.

What is great about this look is that it keeps the area from the lash line to brow fresh, pretty, light and ‘clean’ looking all day, but you still get the ‘wow’ factor with the eyeliner.
