Guerlain Couleurs Collection for Fall 2010
Ecrin 6 Couleurs / Precious Eyeshadows – Tailored Harmonies
For the first time at Guerlain, the Ecrin 6 Couleurs offers a range of three different textures, in each of its harmonies: Iridescent formula (miniscule particles of mother-of-pearl play with the light for intense, coloured radiance and a subtly metallic finish), matt formula (skin-effect matt finish and softness that elegently contrast with the iridescence of mother-of-pearl), and satiny (its velvety, glide-on feinish leaves the eyelids soft and delicate). It uses Moonstone, a precious stone, for its silvery or blue reflections, with adularescence phenomenon, which occurs when the stone moves.

The packaging is devine... and I'm interested in Rue de Passy but for $80 something dollars, I have no problem skipping out.
I saw the eyeshadows at The Bay and Shoppers this week!!! I really like Place Vendome!!! It`s like $90CAD though so I`m not sure if I`m ready to shell out just yet :) I`m desperately waiting to see the blush!!!
I fell in love in Place Vendome palette. But if it's so expensive in the US, I don't have many hopes that I will afford to buy it:(. In my country cosmetics are so expensive because of the ridiculous taxes...
Eagerly awaiting your reviews on this collection, Christine. I saw it at one counter here in Qatar (Middle East) yesterday, and I got the KissKiss Gloss in Poppy Star. I think this shade really rounds out the gloss collection, which I've previously noticed doesn't have a red shade. I'm a fan of KissKiss Glosses which even my currently windburned lips can wear. I'm not keen on the eyeshadows. Considering that the colors aren't so unique, I think these are grossly overpriced even for Guerlain. The packaging is awesome but that's about it for me. Luxury makeup brands like Guerlain and Dior are quite popular here, particularly among Arab ladies who love makeup! Whenever a collection comes out and there is something I want, I have to get it right away because the stocks run out fast, especially limited editions.
I still haven't seen it out at my store :( And I do agree that $84 is expensive, even for Guerlain.
I heard some people already got their hands on these gorgeous palettes. Where will they be available? Keep my finger crossed for Sephora. I'm into Guerlain lately, thanks to you Christine!
They seem to be out at certain counters, but I didn't see 'em at mine yet!
If you happen to live in NYC, they already have them at the Saks counter...
Will they be online then? I'm really looking forward to them. Place Vendome (last palette) is mine :D
They should be!
just ordered Place Vendome at neimanmarcus.com. can't wait:)
I was just wondering if you knew how much the eyeshadow pallets were. Thanks ;)
$84!!
i have already number 69 Gwen of The Rouge G Lipstick and i looooooove it! It´s perfect. It´s a piece of luxury every woman deserves! Thanx for your good detailed and nice preview!!!!
HOW DID I MISS THIS?!?!?! The collection itself has such stunning colors and the packaging is even more amazing.
i'm wondering what the prices will look like.. but i'm definitely going to get vendome palette :)
From what I have read from other blogs, the palettes are priced at $84, but it's guerlain... so the packaging may well be worth it lol
The counter at Saks in NYC has the Ecrin 6 Couleurs palettes for sale and they are definitely priced at $84. (I didn't look to see if the other products from the collection were in or what their prices were...)
Whew, $84 is steep. Even for Guerlain.
Also: the palette contains 0.25 oz of product. That means it's $336 per oz. For comparison, MAC singles are $280 per oz.
Oh good, I can add something, too, lol! Guerlain's quads come in at 0.20 oz., yielding $285/oz. to compare apples to apples!
Ha! Yes, always best to compare apples to apples!
i know this is completely unrelated, but i LOVE the dress that the model is wearing.
Beautiful collection and stunning packaging too. Lovely photo's. Thanks for these, Christine.
Shadows aren't limited version as I understood from other blogs. I've seen swatches in beauty blog and I'm very disappointed :( They are too neutral, version for office and kind of smokeys.
The packaging looks stunning! I actually stumbled upon this Taiwanese blog with swatches provided: http://haruhii.pixnet.net/blog/post/26347222
Ahh, Guerlain always takes my breath away! Lovely packaging, colors and pics! :)
Hmm... not loving how bony Natalia Vodianova looks, and the fact that her skin tone on her face doesn't match the rest of her body. But yeah, the packaging is gorgeous. I'm liking the bee!
I have too many browns as it is, so that means I'm going for Rue de Passy (the last one)! I like that vibrant blue in the middle. This makes me re-think whether I want Chanel's upcoming Enigma palette!
I love the packaging!!!
Those eyeshadow colors look amazing - so pretty!
Natalia Vodianova, so beautiful <3 The colors seems very suitable for fall
beautiful!!! I think this are expensive because of the packing... so adorable!!!
oh em gee. those eyeshadow palates are GORG!!!!
Will you be swatching the lip colors and glosses any time soon? I'd love to see them up close! Thanks!
As soon as I can, I will!
Guerlain is just so damned beautiful. Gosh! I think I'll splurge on one palette. Sheeeeesh!
=/ I'm really not into these palettes. I only like the first one.
I think Guerlain might be fased out in Denmark, everything is 50% off atm...nooooooo! This is so gorgeous, I could die.
Words can't describe how much their lipstick packaging bugs me :P It's like a suitcase D:
The new Estee Lauder e/s quads have the same layout as these Guerlain e/s palettes. Hmmmm. Curious.
They are similar, but I did notice that the Guerlain palette has one more product in it (liner) - on the far side - that Estee Lauder doesn't.
Oooh! I didn't notice the liner on the side. But still - very nice.
MUST.BUY.VENDOME *faints from too much gorgeousess*
Love the packaging and I love that I'm seeing blues and navy in the palettes! I can enjoy my summer makeup and look forward to this for the fall.
The palette itself is just stunning. So far, I've got my eye on the one with the dark, saphire blue shadow.
Too many brown shades for my liking to be honest, but I might pick up Champs Elysees because of the purple, but I'm more interested in the lipsticks and glosses right now.
I don't care how early the pictures are being shown! I love these images, and I am going to have to buy it all! I love these colors. I hate it when brands put out colors that aren't wearable in real life and these are all classic colors! Fall collections are always my favorites. Ahh so excited!
I love the design for the palette, but I can't say that any of the colors hit me. I'll probably pass on this, though that filigree detailing is LOVELY.
OMG can't wait for this!!!!!!!!!
