Clarin's autumn range sees an exciting range of new longlasting lipsticks - Rouge Prodige - which come in 24 shades.
The aim of these lipsticks is to provide true colour, shine and comfortable wear throughout the day.
Most longlasting formulations can prove to be very drying, but these lipsticks feel really soft and smooth on the lips and have impressive staying power. Well worth the €20 price tag. My favourite shade is Clementine, a bright orange coral - not for the faint hearted but it certainly makes a statement!
Also forming part of the collection is a kohl eye pencil in extreme black (€15.50) - perfect for adding definition to the eyes.
The new Instant Blush (€22) is an unusual product which is to be used on lips and cheeks. It's a gel-like product which is housed in a cute square pot.
It looks pinky-translucent but once you rub it onto your skin the colour transforms to a very vibrant pink. It leaves a dewy natural look on skin when applied correctly, but it took me a while to get the hang of it!
The most important thing to remember is to use it very sparingly, and add more if you want to build up intensity. It's much easier to apply to lips and leaves a lovely glossy, bright pink sheen.
Lastly, there is a new Face Palette (€35) which can be either used to set makeup all over the face or as a blusher when applied to the cheeks.
Available from Clarins counters nationwide.
