The eyeliners and mascaras look interesting.  The rest is underwhelming IMO.  Although the quads look nice, they are pretty standard colors, and I haven’t had much luck in the past with their eyeshadow formulas.

I thought it was just amusingly bizarre until I realized she was looking up at a man from her position.  Now it makes me vaguely uncomfortable, and I can’t quite put my finger on why.  I think it’s because it’s sexualizing a woman (vampy makeup, sensual expression) while still stripping her of agency (she’s at *his* feet).  (The only way I could see that flipped around is if she’s a reference to a siren – luring him into the water – but that still objectifies her.)

Both of the neutral quads and the blush/bronzers look stunning. I’m not going to get anything from this collection because of my tight wallet, but man… I do wish sometimes.

The mascaras look semi-interesting, but the ad is off-putting. Why is the scantily-clad teenage model staring up adoring at an obviously older male, and her hands resting on his feet? Gross.

The promo is typically YSL, “sexual ” ( I read the comments here and I agree but I am used to it with YSL perfumes or make-up ). The collection itself is pretty, the quads are beautiful ( shimmer and good pigments ), nail polishes have all been reformulated, I have 2 they’re gorgeous ( easy to apply, amazing colours ).

I picked up the YSL bronzer in #2, it gives a pretty, warm, and natural glow to the skin.  I prefer this over the Guerlain Emilio Pucci bronzer which works better for darker skin tones compared to me.  I am MAC NC25.  The bronzer is the only item that appeals to me from this collection.  I thought the eye shadows are too shimmery and the lip glosses are too brown.
