I’ve a mini overview at this time that includes two issues I purchased lately. Valentino Magnificence launched a couple of objects in white and gold limited-edition packaging and I picked them up over the previous few months. I picked up the Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick in 100R Roman Grace ($45) and Eye2Cheek Blush + Shadow in 03 Rosa Emozione ($52). Each shades are a part of the everlasting lineup so in case you can’t discover the white packaging version know they’re nonetheless accessible within the traditional pink + gold.
Eye2Cheek Blush
It’s been some time since I’ve performed with Valentino Magnificence (overview + swatches from a number of years in the past when the road first launched right here). Over the vacation I began enjoying with among the Eye2Cheek shades in 04 and 08 which a lot of you actually cherished. I forgot how silky easy they’re! You should use them on each the eyes and cheeks, however since I’ve principally pink and coral shades I’ve been utilizing them as blush.
These have a really effective tender powdery texture. They’re so tender and silky they nearly really feel creamy to the contact. End has a really effective pearl sheen to most of them, however a couple of have a extra noticeable shimmer. Shade 03 Rosa Emozione is a phenomenal child pink with gold shimmer. It will probably double as a highlighter because it’s shimmery. I believe it’s lovely!
Swatch comparisons under to some different shades together with RMS Magnificence ReDimension Hydra Powder Blush in French Rose, NARS Powder Blush in Orgasm (a traditional for me), a couple of different Valentino Eye2Cheek shades, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Blush in Elegant Flush and Chanel Illuminating Powder Blush in Fantaise de Chanel (overview right here, discontinued).
Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick
I purchased the Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick in 100R (shade in everlasting packaging right here) a couple of months in the past whereas touring and it’s the right impartial nude mauve pink for me. It has a satin end so it has a bit of little bit of a sheen to it. I believe I attempted this in a mini a number of years in the past and I’m undecided why I didn’t put on it extra typically. I actually like it now. The case is refillable for each the pink and white packaging.
I did a couple of swatch comparisons under which I’ll say look a bit of off however I believe it’s as a result of my physique has fully misplaced its tan. These rose mauve lips all look so darker on lighter pores and skin tones due to any brown or mauve undertone they could have. On my face/lips they don’t look as darkish.
Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in Pillow Speak, Gucci Satin Lipsticks in Blaze of Midday and Bertha Blossom (overview right here), Anastasia Beverly Hills Lipstick in Rose Dream (on the lips right here), Chantecaille Lip Stylish in Freesia (overview right here), YSL Rouge Pur Couture in N5 (swatched right here).
General actually love. I believe the Valentino Magnificence line is admittedly under-rated and I believe it’s due to the packaging. So might of you will have instructed me the packaging colours are a bit clashy wanting and the plastic has an affordable feel and look. I’ve to say I agree. The packaging is definitely well-constructed and durable however there’s one thing in regards to the plastic in pink that makes it kinda unappealing. The white plastic is identical materials however someway appears extra elevated. That being mentioned the precise merchandise carry out rather well.
Store the Publish
I purchased mine from Sephora. You too can discover Valentino Magnificence at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s.
