[espro-slider id=341]Summer is over and we all embrace Autumn with open arms. While most of us want to look glamorous after the long hot season in the UAE, the first thing that comes to our mind what are the latest make-up launches we need to look for. Although I am very adventurous with makeup and love playing with new products, I’m hesitant when it comes to skincare specially that I have a sensitive skin that gets irritated easily.

I have been using Guerlain for the past few years and for this season I have again chosen Guerlain the goldsmith of the complexion. In 2015, Guerlain is reinventing Parure Gold, its exquisite foundation with a precious rejuvenating radiance. Since its launch in 2009, Parure Gold has radically raised the bar in terms of radiant make-up results.Today, Parure Gold is taking radiance and rejuvenation even further with two major innovations. Parure Gold fluid (12 shades) and compact foundation (8 shades) both SPF 30, L’or skin primer.

So start your make-up routine by applying the following:

1- Start with the L’Or base, the ideal primer for reviving radiance, hydrating the skin and optimising the rejuvenating effects of Parure Gold Foundation.

2- Follow by Parure Gold fluid foundation- Apply a few drops of foundation to the centre of the face and blend outwards. Continue blending into the neck to avoid leaving a line. For the compact to be used as a foundation, apply with a sponge, blending in the same way from the wings of the nose to the outside of the face. To use as a pressed powder, apply with a brush all over the face for an even more velvety result. Perfect for touching up your make-up!

   I personaly use both. I apply the liquid foundation first and the compact on top. I like the result it gives. The skin looks radiant flawless, the pores disappear and it is light at the same time.

If you suffer from open pores and have been struggling to find a solution, here is a trick of how to get them covered.

Blend the POREfessional primer all over face to minimize the appearance of pores then target oily spots with license to blot. Sweep on agent zero shine powder for allover shine control!

When you apply this to your skin it feels so nice. I find that it really does cover every single pore on my face, leaving me with a smooth complexion. It just blends into my skin tone perfectly. I absolutely love this product and will definitely by the value size as I feel it may not last as long as I would like in the 22ml and there is a big saving by buying the 44ml value size.

BLOT on the spot! This instant oil-blotting stick with tiny invisible blotting spheres mattifies shine for up to 6 hours after application.* The specially designed triangular tip targets shiny zones…the sides of your nose, forehead and chin. Oil has finally met its matte!
