Guerlain discussion

[novocainedreams]

Broke down and bought Batifole on Bloomingdales site and Reflex(I hope I like the color since I haven't seen swatches yet, hah) I have UD catfight so even though I like Provocateur I feel like I shouldn't get it. There's just something about Guerlain's formula though...I only have one Rouge G, Garconne. I love the formula but the packaging...still a bit much for me, but I'll deal haha. I really want the bronzer and one of the meteorites, but I'm hoping they will be back on Sephora's site, or Nordstrom.

OH and the Bloomingdale's sales and % off don't apply to cosmetics, I learned. :-/

The Rouge G formula is my most favourite ever. However, I still won't buy Provocative - I really like the UD lipsticks and Catfight has been on my list for a while. Also it's £36, I would rather buy Tom Ford with that money since I don't own any of his yet.

I just got my first Tom Ford lipstick in Smoked Sable... And I have to say it is a very nice lipstick but I prefer the Rouge G formula over it... For some reason every TF item I try just does not wow me enough to justify the $$$.. Guerlain is really the only brand I splurge on things on a regular basis. And I TOTALLY agree that the UD revolution lipsticks are really great for their price point! I love them!

I actually really like the look of this palette. I doubt I'll get it, as it's much more than I usually pay for a palette, but I think it's beautiful.

It's just Reflex for me I think. Illusion looks nice, but not that amazing. I already have Provocative Rouge G, but that is really beautiful.

Anyone knows when this will be available in the UK? I'm guessing end of October.

That's how I feel too! Can we really pass it? I'm passing Provocative because it's red instead of a hot pink that I'm looking for. I may get Illusion though. I can't wait to see everything in person. If I pass the shimmer spray, maybe I can get the palette!

I'm wondering about Provocative vs Catfight as well. Rouge G is an amazing formula, but UD is no slouch and at half the price, it's hard to justify the extra expense. Plus, now that I've seen both Rouge Automatiques, I kinda want them as much or more than I want Provocative. It'll all be decided with the swatches.

Nov 1st is the date I'm going on.

I will let my wallet next month decide for me I've had a few extra costs come up, but I get two November paychecks so I just might be able to swing it.

Bloomingdales shipping is super slow. My Madame Batifole won't be here until next Monday, per the UPS Mail Piece tracking. I hope it gets here by Saturday at least.

When did you order? I ordered Thursday and it will be here Wednesday. Pretty standard for me.

FYI - the Cruel Gardenia meteorites powder (repromote from Spring 2012) is now available at my Shoppers Drug Mart, so keep an eye out for it in your local stores if you are interested in getting one!

They are slow IMO as well compared to other places. They seem to take longer processing orders. It's not extreme, but we want our instant gratification. Mine should arrive tomorrow.

I agree. At least it's not as bad as Macy's. I ordered something from them a few weeks ago and the tracking "departed" from California for 7 days until it got to me.
