Spring 2014: Guerlain Météorites Blossom.

If there is one iconic makeup product worth owning, it is Guerlain Météorites. These little colored balls of pearl add the most beautiful soft radiant touch of glowing color to the skin. The new Météorites Blossom collection celebrates this iconic product as it has been reinvented.

You see, these legendary Météorites Pearls, whose light-diffusing properties minimize flaws and add brightness to the skin and have for more than 25 years after its invention, are emerging with new constellations of colors to revive light and boost radiance. For the first time ever, Météorites Pearls incorporates Guerlain’s new, revolutionary Stardust Technology, a spherical pigment contained within each pearl. This formulation diffracts light upon contact to offer the ultimate in luminous skin. So, of course, the star product is the new Météorites Pearls, in three shades. The rest of the products complement the new pearls and are just as stunning.

Origins has used natural and essential oils for more than 20 years. This credibility and leadership in working with natural ingredients has led them to create such a fine face oil in this. It's unique in the fact that it's made with a blend of 20 natural and essential oils that help to replace natural lipids lost over time. It works to strengthen the skin's barrier to boost radiance and soothe tired and overworked skin.

It helps my makeup go on and look better too. I like that it rapidly absorbs into my skin and leaves behind no greasy after feel.

To apply, I just use 2 drops and put it into the palm of my hand and rub them gently together. I then gently pat them onto my skin, starting at the top of my face and work outward. I repeat this on the middle and lower portions of my face as well, then down onto my neck.
