Guerlain Holiday 2009 Bal De Nuit Eyeshadow Palette Review, Swatches, LOTD

Guerlain Bal De Nuit Palette, to see packaging pictures refer to this post



Swatches, its swatched from left to right top row first then bottom



About: The Guerlain Bal De Nuit Eyeshadow quad is a limited edition palette that was released as part of their Holiday 2009 collection.

Price: $58

Thoughts: The eyeshadows that come in Guerlain's palettes have so far all been consistently silky and smooth in texture and this one is no different. The eyeshadows are easy to apply, blend, and build up. The appearance is more of a sheen/shimmer than in your face pigmentation. The shades in this particular quad are very wearable and have a beautiful shimmer to them. Even though its a holiday edition palette, its a great everyday palette as well. Overall I'm a fan of this palette.

Rating: 4 out of 5

Tips: You can change up your look with this palette by changing your lipstick, something neutral by day and jazzing it up with some bright red at night

Where To Purchase: Check the stock at your local Guerlain counter or buy online at saks.

Here's my look with the palette



I actually applied the eyeshadows following their eye map that came with the palette




What else is on my face? (in case you're curious)
  • Guerlain Parure Extreme Foundation in #02
  • Guerlain Meteorites in Mythic to set
  • MAC MSF in Redhead (as blush and highlight)
  • Paul & Joe lipstick #26
Happy Friday Everyone!

xoxo, M
