Last Spring lipsticks with sheer texture were huge and this Spring we will be getting some new additions to that range. And I am talking about Guerlain and Armani!
According to beauty staff, Guerlain will release new Shine Automatique lipsticks for Spring 2012.
There are nine new lipsticks which are divided into four groups.
Red

Orange

This Spring Guerlain’s makeup collection is all about the pink and the black. It is even the name of the collection actually - Les Roses Et Le Noir.
You can see that even the promo image with Natalia Vodianova is all about the pink and the black!
The star product of the collection is the MÉTÉORITES CRUEL GARDÉNIA which is an Iridescent Illuminating Powder. It is a limited edition obviously, and retails for £41.00 / €55.00.
The other big release is the new Noir G mascara which you can see on the promo photo, by the way. It comes in the similar case as the Rouge G lipstick.
Here is what Guerlain says about the mascara:” 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. Pull the top to reveal the refill. Just trigger a secret click on the top of the cap to release it… And insert another. ”
This mascara should give us three-dimensional result, according to the brand, it should be volumising, lengthening and curling.
There is also a very interesting detail! Here is how the scent of the mascara is described:” The softness of flowery peach, the crispness of green vegetables, the opulence of rose and jasmine, the sensory pleasure of benzoin and white musk… ”
NOIR G DE GUERLAIN £35.00 / €47.00

I don’t really do nude lips, there are several nude lipsticks that I like but I rarely use them. My everyday lips would be baby pink or clear glosses or the new glossy lipsticks. I also love light coral and peaches and bright matte lips but light pinks/clear glosses would be my choice for an everyday look.
There are so many that I love but I have decided to choose only eight. I love high end glosses for my personal use but I understand that not everyone can afford it so I’ve chosen three much cheaper lip products that I love, too.
Since these are my favourite products I have already written about all of them so I will just include the links to my reviews.
My favourite gloss of all times would have to be Chanel Mica glossimer which you can probably tell by how well used it is, my second favourite is KissKiss Crystal Pearl by Guerlain.
My most favourite affordable lip gloss is Demure by Rimmel which is discontinued but I have backups.
Other lip glosses/lipsticks from the photo are:
Dior Addict in Baby Rose – review and swatches
Yves Saint Laurent Gloss Pur in Aqua Curacao – review and swatches
Anna Sui Sui Lip Gloss in 001 – review and swatches
Max Factor Xperience Boutique Sheer Gloss Balm in Coral – review and swatches
Maybelline Colorsensational Cream Gloss in I love Lilas – review and swatches
Here are the swatches which start from Chanel Mica, YSL, Guerlain and the same order you can see on the photo.
Similar glosses that are on my wish list now are: Gemma Kidd Moonstone, Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Lilac Pastelle, Givenchy lip gloss (don’t remember the name) and New CID i-gloss in Moonstone, Hourglass Origami, GOSH Light’N Shine Lip Glaze in 04 and Clarins Clarins Lip Perfector in Rose.
If you know a lip products with a similar shade that I would like please share!
