You know that kick you feel when you get the very last Limited Edition product available in a store?
Okay, imagine getting the very last LE product in, not one, but 2 countries.
I went asking for the Lancome Butterflies Fever Blush in KL & Singapore, and got it until a few days before leaving KL from 1 Utama Mall. By that time, I was only asking if it was available out of habit, and had predicted the answer- not "Out Of Stock', "Finished". But then....
Lancome SA ~ Hesitated first,"We might have ONE left."
She pulled a drawer in front of us. My hubby and I looked at each other, holding our breaths (he was tired of me whining over this for months, so it's important to him that I get this as well) She took it out, opened it to show us, and I exhaled.
"We held this for a customer, but....." I couldn't hear her anymore.
Glowy Ballerine was launched with Lancome's Ultra Lavande Collection, Spring 2011.
This beauty is packaged in a glossy jet black case, and comes with a mirror and a tiny brush.
See how the purple on the butterflies got wiped off with the brush? Damn, why did I go and do that?!
Swatch |
Sorry, this is more of a picture post than a review. I just can't ruin the design further. Yet. But I have to say, it is as pretty as it is in the promo pics.
Price ~ RM 130 (Rs.1950)
Availability ~ Lancome Butterflies Fever blush wasn't launched in India.
P.S: Birthday Giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced shortly. GOOD LUCK all! :)

ReplyDeleteso pretty blush!
ReplyDeleteAren't the shimmer particles too big? they look artificial in the swatch but you may know better...
It's very pretty, but I agree with Meenu. The shimmer particles look quite big. Not only that but I can't see much color on it. I'm tanner than you so a pink this cool would look more like a highlight than a blush. Too bad! The design is so lovely~
ReplyDeleteWowwwwwww.... is all I can say :D
ReplyDeleteThis is sooooooooo prettyyyyyyyyyy ...drooolingggggggg!! :D :D
ReplyDeleteMeenu, Eden- The glitter is just sprayed on, so they'd come off if I dust them off with a brush. I didn't want to spoil the design, that's why the color is not showing well either :D
ReplyDelete♥xx♥
Jeena- Really?! I didn't know her until u mentioned :)
ReplyDeletepnb- hehe...aww..thanks. Ya it won't show well on darker skin tones
cnf- thanks girl

It looks really beautiful but I can see too much shimmer :( Plus I doubt this would show up on me :( and Lancome's so expensive :( But it's soo pretty, I bet that's justified ;)
