I’ve a mini evaluation at present that includes two issues I purchased not too long ago. Valentino Magnificence launched a couple of objects in white and gold limited-edition packaging and I picked them up over the previous few months. I picked up the Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick in 100R Roman Grace ($45) and Eye2Cheek Blush + Shadow in 03 Rosa Emozione ($52). Each shades are a part of the everlasting lineup so should you can’t discover the white packaging version know they’re nonetheless out there within the traditional crimson + gold.

Eye2Cheek Blush

It’s been some time since I’ve performed with Valentino Magnificence (evaluation + swatches from a number of years in the past when the road first launched right here). Over the vacation I began taking part in with a few of the Eye2Cheek shades in 04 and 08 which lots of you actually liked. I forgot how silky easy they’re! You should utilize them on each the eyes and cheeks, however since I’ve principally pink and coral shades I’ve been utilizing them as blush.

These have a really wonderful smooth powdery texture. They’re so smooth and silky they nearly really feel creamy to the contact. End has a really wonderful pearl sheen to most of them, however a couple of have a extra noticeable shimmer. Shade 03 Rosa Emozione is a good looking child pink with gold shimmer. It will possibly double as a highlighter because it’s shimmery. I believe it’s stunning!

Swatch comparisons beneath to some different shades together with RMS Magnificence ReDimension Hydra Powder Blush in French Rose, NARS Powder Blush in Orgasm (a traditional for me), a couple of different Valentino Eye2Cheek shades, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Blush in Elegant Flush and Chanel Illuminating Powder Blush in Fantaise de Chanel (evaluation right here, discontinued).

Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick

I purchased the Rosso Valentino Satin Lipstick in 100R (shade in everlasting packaging right here) a couple of months in the past whereas touring and it’s the proper impartial nude mauve pink for me. It has a satin end so it has a little bit little bit of a sheen to it. I believe I attempted this in a mini a number of years in the past and I’m undecided why I didn’t put on it extra typically. I actually like it now. The case is refillable for each the crimson and white packaging.

I did a couple of swatch comparisons beneath which I’ll say look a little bit off however I think it’s as a result of my physique has utterly misplaced its tan. These rose mauve lips all look so darker on lighter pores and skin tones due to any brown or mauve undertone they could have. On my face/lips they don’t look as darkish.

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution in Pillow Discuss, Gucci Satin Lipsticks in Blaze of Midday and Bertha Blossom (evaluation right here), Anastasia Beverly Hills Lipstick in Rose Dream (on the lips right here), Chantecaille Lip Stylish in Freesia (evaluation right here), YSL Rouge Pur Couture in N5 (swatched right here).

General actually love. I believe the Valentino Magnificence line is basically under-rated and I think it’s due to the packaging. So might of you’ve got advised me the packaging colours are a bit clashy trying and the plastic has an affordable appear and feel. I’ve to say I agree. The packaging is definitely well-constructed and durable however there’s one thing concerning the plastic in crimson that makes it kinda unappealing. The white plastic is identical materials however one way or the other seems to be extra elevated. That being mentioned the precise merchandise carry out very well.

Store the Submit

I purchased mine from Sephora. You too can discover Valentino Magnificence at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s.
