Caught in the Rain With Laura Mercier: The Laura Mercier Spring 2022 Collection, "Paris After the Rain" - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Analogy of the new SP16 shades of Laura Mercier Lip Parfait

Hither's a look at the new Laura Mercier Spring 2022 Collection, starting with the "Paris After The Pelting Middle Colour Collection (a $55 palette). While most jump collections would rather distract u.s. from the winter blues, "Paris After the Rain" imagines a world "inspired by the reflection of lights on cobblestone streets and the trip the light fantastic of colours on zinc rooftops in Paris after the pelting."

Sounds like something out of a Nicholas Sparks novel, right?

The palette is housed in thick matte plastic (4″ x 3.75″ — smaller than my hand!)

Now, I should mention that I think Laura Mercier tin can practise just almost no wrong, and while every product isn't always for me, I tin ordinarily imagine who would like and use them and how.

The Centre Color palette was a surprise favorite of mine. With four super creamy matte shades (0.05 oz. each) and four soft glittery toppers (0.035 oz. each), it's a versatile palette with lots of options for day and dark.

A amend await at the Multi Chrome Pearl Topper formula

Laura Mercier calls the broiled chapeau colors "Multi Chrome Pearl Toppers" and suggests patting them on the hat after smudging the matte shades forth the lash line. In the swatches above, it took 2 or three passes to build upwardly the intensity. I call back this would give a beautiful soft focus consequence, merely when swatched over a cream base, they really come to life!

The collection also includes two new shades of Laura'southward Lip Parfait Creamy Colourbalm ($25 each) in Rive Gauche and Rive Droite. They're creamy and comfy on my lips and accept a little shimmer, too. In texture, they remind me of the Revlon Lip Butters, only they're more pigmented.

I decided to try two different looks with this palette: a simple look in under five minutes, and then a full smokey eye with a baby cat eye.

Le Marais blended over the eye, Champs Elysee full-bodied on the edges, La Madeleine dusted on the centre of the lid. Lip Parfait in Rive Droite on the lips

Rue de Vivoli patted on the lids over Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Heart Colour in Cocoa, Bout Eiffel blended along the outer edges, and Le Marais diffused all over. Lip Parfait in Rive Gauche on lips. I had to apply a separate palette to add a popular of shimmer on the inner corner

With the palette existence smaller than an iPhone 6, I am a huge fan of it for bringing on the road. The only product I struggled with was matte cream Saint Germain, which had a tendency to harden under my fingers and brushes.

Equally of right now, the express edition center colour palette/collection can exist purchased at Macys ($49!), Laura Mercier, and Von Maur.

Sadly, it may already be sold out at Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom.
