Laura Mercier 'Lingerie' Eye & Cheek Palette


How absolutely beautiful is this palette from Laura Mercier?! We love it here in the studio.
It is part of Laura Mercier's Lingerie Spring collection therefore limited edition, so we feel very fortunate to have one in our hands. It is the perfect palette for subtle hits of warm and glowing colour,  great for bringing about spring-like youthfulness all year round.
In the palette are six shades for the eyes, most of which are exclusive to this palette with the exception of African Violet and Black Plum.
The two blushers, One pink toned, one peach toned, are a versatile duo to have in one set for a gorgeous and healthy blush. Both are perfect for everyday, I would pair the peach toned blush with a stronger lip or eye look and the pink toned with a softer fresh make-up finish. The shadows are the most beautiful and luxurious warm toned colours, from which you can create a multitude of looks. Within the six there are great options for defining, contouring, base colours and options to create both natural and sumptuous smokey looks from the different combinations. All products have brilliant staying power, a smooth finish, strong pigmentation and blend softly. There is a very sophisticated air about this palette, from the sleek case the products come in, to the richness of the products inside. I love how all the colours are totally wearable too, making for a good investment.

Laura Mercier Bonne Mine Crème Colour Palette

Nic and I decided that we loved this palette the moment we saw it. We are both fans of creme products although perhaps this is the kind of product that is suited to the summer. Either way, the palette is brilliant and versatile. 
You may be able to see the little black tabs above the mirror (see below) These tabs can be pulled out to reveal excellent instructions, tips and tricks on how to use this lovely palette.

The palette is inspired by Laura Mercier's work with celebrity clients, in particular Sarah Jessica Parker.
The Story goes that Sarah walks into a shoot ready for make-up and pulls out a homemade palette featuring a bunch of her favourite LM products crushed into one place... Cue Laura's brain ticking. Apparently, SJP received the first of these palettes ever made.

What they say
'This ultra-sheer, blendable palette was inspired by Laura’s work with celebrity clients, who wanted a universal compact that would “wake up” their skin and give them an immediate healthy glow.  From bronzer, to cheek colour, to glow, it’s easy to customize any look. The palette provides a finished effect – skin has a natural “no-makeup” glow that looks soft and sun-kissed. The built-in mirror and step-by-step instruction tabs allow for easy portability.'

Crème colour palette includes:
  • 1 bronzer veil
  • 2 glow veils
  • 2 cheek veils

PRICE: £35
