I'd just like to pause for a moment and say how much I adore the graphics Guerlain has been using for their new product launches. I was enchanted by the mascara that made a "sketch" of a high heeled shoe as well.

For those who might not understand, here are the basics:

- There is a new liquid foundation "Tenue de Perfection" which will be available in 12 shades
- It promises even coverage that applies flawlessly and lasts for 16 hours
- The ingredients include a complex of 3 essential oils, a proprietary Guerlain innovation
- At the same time, Guerlain will be revamping its "Les Voilettes" powders, which will be available in 3 shades to suit all skin tones AND they will be offering 3 new brushes for powder, foundation and blush
- Launch will be in September

Thanks for the link Dominique and thanks for the translation Katred! As for the new blush, I'm wondering if maybe that's just a dud, because my Rouge G has a strip (the top, coral one) which is very hard and hardly shows up, but every review I've seen said it was buttery, easy to swatch, etc.

Also some of my blush duos are like that, in particular the larger side of Over Rose! As a result, I wouldn't recommend bothering with that Katred, but then again, it could be a dud?

Thanks very much, Sara, you make an excellent point. With the blush duos, although they're difficult to swatch, I have no problem seeing both colours when I use them. In this case, you just don't seem to get the effect of the pink shades. I'm probably better off investing in one of the duos that I don't already have (Peach Boy and Over Rose are on my list).

Did you guys hear? The blush is up on the Neiman Marcus site. I just called Saks and they will have it mid August. I think I will wait for Saks because I feel bad that I wanted to buy something from an SA that helped me before. But when I went back she wasn't in.

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like they have the entire Fall collection. I'm going to be very patient and wait for it to show up at Nordstrom. They usually have a Beauty gift around mid-Aug. so I hoping I can purchase my goodies and get the freebie

I didn't really need any more convincing, but if I had, Temptalia's review and photos of Madame Batifole lipstick would have sold me:

And here's her review of the polish:

The lipstick does look gorgeous on her! I hadn't really noticed how pretty the shimmer in it is. I might get it together with the blush.

I'm going to find it very difficult to only buy 1 or 2 of the lipsticks! Still unsure about the blush though it does look beautiful in the pan :)

I ordered the blush and #860 ls & gloss right away from NM. By the time I am able to make it any of my local Guerlain counters (in a few days) all of these products will be gone. I know this based on my past attempts to get LE Guerlain items. Women in So Cal love their limited Guerlain blushes and lippies.

Nice, finally some polish swatches! Thx for posting. I'm reliefed I can take it off my fall polish shopping list. The colour is not really what I hoped for, I expected it to look more like the Dior Graphic Berry that is shown in the Dupe list in that post.
