Guerlain Ecrin 4 Couleurs Palette - Les Violines Review

Have you ever had a make up product that was so pretty you were afraid to touch it? For me, that product was is the Guerlain Ecrin 4 Couleurs Palette. A few weeks ago I received a lovely DM on twitter informing me I'd won a prize from the fabulous Dave Lackie - but not just any prize... a new Guerlain eyeshadow palette.

Dave shipped it out from Canada and it arrived within a matter of days, needless to say I squealed so hard when it arrived and opened the box to discover the luxurious velvet pouch and shining gold palette. At £39.00 for four shades, this palette is by no means cheap - but neither is the quality. From the velvet pouch to the magnetic clasp, everything about this product screams high end.

The Guerlian Ecrin 4 Couleurs- 17 Les Violines Palette is a collection of 4 beautifully rich violet shades. The colours are designed to blend together seamlessly but also work amazingly well as 'stand alone' shades. One of my favourite things about this palette is the texture of the gorgeous satin shadows, which is absolutely to die for. They feel buttery rich and glide over the eyelids so easily. 

What I love about these shadows is how easy they are to dress from day to night,and how you can layer them to create drama where you want it and after some experimentation with these shadows I think by far my favourite look to create with them is a 'Halo Eye'.  

I've got a couple of make up looks coming your way featuring this palette soon, and I cannot wait to share them with you.
