Blue Lip Gloss & Swirling Prints: Guerlain by Emilio Pucci 2012

To me, the very thought of Pucci conjures up images of the gorgeous Italian Riviera, complete with sleek yachts, gloriously sunny days and sexy women in ultra-cool dresses. As for Guerlain, the mind automatically wanders over to super-chic Paris boulevards, old world glamour and sophisticated women who live intriguing lives. So, what happens when you put them together? Simple – you get the best of both worlds! And that’s the driving force behind summer’s most exciting makeup wizardry – the Guerlain by Emilio Pucci Collection, which is a marriage of the two most glorious style icons of our times.

Les Meteorites

Pucci has pulled out one of it’s most iconic archival prints – the Winter Motif, whose swirling swathes of blue, green and turquoise are perfect for conjuring the sky and sea on a gorgeous summery day – to package the sunny Les Meteorites. Can’t wait to possess one of these, though I don’t know how the turquoise blue balls would play up against the skin?

Talking of blue, the  Terra Azzura Khol is most definitely a must-have – the rich, ever-so-slighty Crayola hue is perfect for giving your eyes a touch of summer.

And then there is the show stopper – the Terra Azzurra Bronzing Powder and Blush. Sigh!!!!

Amongst the lip glosses, there is a vivid blue one – called Porto Azzurra – which I find really intriguing. Have never seen anything like this before. Will swatch it as soon as I can get my hands on one.

Then there are the nail polishes, eye shadows and other paraphernalia – each one more brilliant than the other. This is one year that summer can’t come soon enough!
