FRANCE. Guerlain will introduce its 2005 Terracotta collection from next month.
This year’s range is said to be characterised by the sun’s warmth and soothing freshness. Accordingly, bronze and turquoise are key product shades.
The star product is the Sunset Celebration Bronzing Powder (below), presented this year in a limited-edition, large-size format and suitable for use on both the face and body.
Shades of pink and turquoise highlight the bronzer, which nestles in an oversized amber case adorned with golden interlocking Gs.
The recommended domestic price point is €52.
The other complexion product is Fresh Bronzing Gel (€32), available in three colours to suit all skin tones. The oil-free formula is said to deliver a light, healthy glow. It is presented in a copper-coloured tube and incorporates an SPF 8.
Duo Shiny Shine is a multi-purpose product that can be used on the face, eyes and lips. The bronze/turquoise make-up boasts an iridescent cream texture that lends itself perfectly to enhancing/highlighting a variety of facial features, according to Guerlain.
Presented in a mirrored compact, it will retail domestically at €25.50.
The focus for eyes will be Guerlain’s limited edition Kohl Loose Powder (pictured below) in aqua blue (€26.50).
For lips, there are three Fresh & Shine Lip Glosses (€20 each), in Icy Gold, Icy Pink and Icy Blue.
Guerlain will further strengthen its Terracotta franchise this summer with a new Bronzing Make Up Palette.
Ideal for travellers, it contains a half-moon of Terracotta powder, complete with applicator brush, Duo Matt & Shine Highlighter Dune et Miel, and two shades of Gloss & Shine lipstick.
The items are presented in a large but slim, bronze mirrored case.
The palette is complemented by Divinora Waterproof Curving Mascara in shades of classic black, warm brown and Bleu Splash – a vibrant blue-green with light-reflecting pigments.
