Guerlain added fairly a number of new issues of their make-up lineup and I’ve a roundup evaluation of their KissKiss Bee Glow Oil, Terracotta Powder Blush and Terracotta Concealer.
Terracotta Concealer
Guerlain launched their Terracotta Le Teint Basis final 12 months (reviewed right here). This 12 months they’ve added a Terracotta Concealer ($47) to the lineup and it has a wonderful method. It’s what I might name a traditional concealer method – not too creamy, not too thick, not too matte, not too radiant. Components is good.
I used their shade chart to order Shade 3N since I exploit 3N and three.5N within the basis. It’s an excellent match however I want I had bought 2.5N for extra brightening underneath the eyes. There may be added perfume and it’s fairly sturdy identical to the inspiration but it surely didn’t irritate my pores and skin and appeared to put on simply effective with none points.

The one draw back is applicator is troublesome to drag out of the container. On one hand the design appears to make sure product is not going to leak. However it’s troublesome to drag out and takes some tugging (I’ve to watch out in any other case product goes flying in every single place).
I shared a fast look on my Instagram tales and had a variety of questions on this and the way it compares to different formulation. This can be a traditional method with a satin end and superb protection and blendability. It doesn’t cake or crease. Somewhat goes a great distance and it’s simple to work with. Components is VERY good for my part, however I nonetheless desire the Natasha Denona concealer method which is creamier, has higher packaging and higher for multi-tasking. This one additionally has perfume in it but it surely’s not noticeable to me.
Comparability swatches beneath which I do know are in all places by way of coloration. I’m nonetheless in my winter pores and skin tone so most of my matches look orangey on my pores and skin however in a number of weeks I’ll have my tan again and most of those will match higher:
Terracotta Powder Blush
Guerlain additionally launched a brand new cheek product referred to as the Terracotta Powder Blush ($55). These are comfortable silky satin blushes in stunning colours. They’ve a comfortable texture with just a little little bit of a glow. I picked out two to attempt in 01 Rose Clair/Mild Pink which is a comfortable pink and 02 Corail Clair/Mild Coral a comfortable peach. Each present up properly even on my medium pores and skin tone.
They don’t swatch the most effective on the arm or hand so I didn’t embrace arm swatches however they apply fantastically on the pores and skin. They meld into the pores and skin fantastically, final lengthy. Colours are simple to construct up pigment smart with out wanting cakey or powdery. For those who like their bronzers I feel you’ll like these.
They’re closely fragranced and whereas the colours are stunning and really wearable (a minimum of for the two I purchased) I do suppose they are often simply duped from different manufacturers like those from Gucci or Armani. That being mentioned I do suppose the lasting energy of those Guerlain ones is best.
KissKiss Bee Glow Oil
Guerlain launched lip oils and I’m 100% in love with these. The KissKiss Bee Glow Oil ($40) is available in six shades and so they have a color-reviving method. They swatch sheer however as soon as on the lips rework right into a comfortable tint.
These are closely scented with a robust honey scent but it surely’s nice to me and I like them. They’re thick and smoothing and provides the lips a wonderful glazed look. On me they really feel barely plumping and so they really feel very hydrating.
Colours will almost definitely look just a little completely different on everybody since they react to your pH. Lasting energy is fairly good. They really feel thick for an oil but it surely’s snug and adheres properly to the lips.
The query so a lot of you will have requested is how the Guerlain KissKiss Bee Oil compares to the Dior Lip Glow Oil and I’ve to say I’ve probably not been a HUGE fan of the Dior ones. I feel the Dior Lip Oil is a pleasant method however in my expertise all the colours look similar on my lips (clear). For me they only didn’t reside as much as the hype and the Dior method seems like one thing that’s going to slip off my lips (though it’s thick) and so they really feel sticky.
The Guerlain oils really feel thicker and extra cushiony however the texture isn’t cheesy feeling. In addition they don’t really feel like they’re sliding off my lips – it’s like a shiny hydrating cushion that stays put. The colour reviving high quality is stronger so extra of a tint exhibits up on my lips with the Guerlain oils.
Backside line love.

KissKiss Bee Glow
Final I’ve a fast have a look at the KissKiss Bee Glow Lip Balms ($40 every). These are coloration reviving balms with a sheer wash of coloration however rework in your lips. I did fast swatches of those on my arm for the reason that approach they’ll look on my lips almost definitely gained’t be the identical for everybody. These are extremely under-rated. I feel the Guerlain KissKiss Be Glow balms rival the Dior Addict Lip Glow in formulation for hydration and coloration. I like each formulation. For those who’re seeking to attempt one thing new I extremely advocate trying out those from Guerlain for higher hydration (I feel Honey Glow is my favourite).
I feel the balm + oils layered in coordinating colours create a very fairly mixture!
That wraps up my Guerlain roundup! Completely obsessive about the brand new Lip Oils and I might be conserving one of many balms in my purse always. Concealer and blushes are good however not must-haves. I do suppose the formulation and colours are wonderful, I’m simply unsure I might name them sport changers or tremendous distinctive.
Obtainable now at Guerlain.
