Laura Mercier Spring 2012 Lingerie Collection & Swatch

I was happy to be invited to Laura Mercier Spring 2012 Lingerie collection launch a few days ago in Sunway Pyramid. Yes I know so fast and it's spring now !!!

The best thing is Jodi Riley, the Laura Mercier International Make up Artist from US was there to do makeup demostration and to share her tips and experiences.

She started introducing the Spring 2012 lingerie collection and I thought I heard wrongly... Lingerie ? This Lingerie collection came about because of Laura’s background as an artist. She was a fine art painter and the inspiration for this collection was the soft romantic colours and fabrics from the Victorian Age. The colours are reminiscent of Boudoir vintage lingerie pieces such as lace, petticoats and silks.

And this palette has the colours combination that could easily create Romantic, Feminine and Playful look.

Jodi doing demo on the model

As she was doing the demo I was hoping the model could sit facing infront rather the sideways as I could not really see how Jodi apply the makeup on the model :(

She highly recommended Laura Mercier eyelashes curler which could curl up short eyelashes easily.

I have tried it and easily my eyelashes curled up!

Model finished look

Model closer look no 2

Well let's see how the colours of the collection looked like ya ! I managed to do some swatch for Laure Mercier Spring 2012 collection!

Simple and classy packaging of the Eye & Cheek palette

My first impression is I love the colours combination in this palette because all this colours are "useable" and "pretty". Seems like one that I could bring for holiday easily without needing to bring so many palettes.

The combination of colours here I would think are pretty natural except for african violet. The colour is so beautiful and unique. It's violet/gray with some gold sparkles! So tempted to buy because of this african violet! *love*

Swatch of the blusher in Laura Mercier Spring 2012 collection palette

Lip shine

Tempting Coral is such a beautiful colour ... tempting my heart too!

Sheer Lip colour

I did went to the makeover to try out the collection. And honestly this is my first time trying their famous tinted moisturizer and lates foundation premier too! Kinda like it cos it is quite light but definitely not good enough to gives me a flawless look.

After makeover

I found out Laura Mercier eyeliner powder something quite unique! I was told to wet the brush before dipping them into the eyeliner powder palette. And the method of applying of eyeliner is dabbing. *unfortunately was told later on it's not waterproof*

I like how she does the makeup for me. Very natural and radiant look!

Close-up for the eyes makeup.

Group photo with blogger friends

Group photo with the sexy panties pouch ! Yes it is a sexy pouch & it's in our goodie bag!!!

Thank you Laura Mercier for being so generous, now I can tried some of their products at home... especially the foundation premier ! And I super love the flip-up mirror with lighting at the side *so glamour feel*

Finally a picture with Jodi Riley !!

Reviews will be up after trying out the products!
