(Please ignore what looks like red balls in both tubs, they’re all pink, it’s shadow that’s turning the colour weird) If you compare the permanent shade 02 Clair (formerly Teint Rose) with Aquarella, you may notice how Aquarella appears to be the softer, more pastel, more shimmery version of Clair. Guerlain Meteorites Pearls Left: 02 Clair Right: Aquarella So, while it does give a lovely glow, it isn’t as subtle as it’s permanent cousin, Clair. There is noticeable glitter and shimmer on my skin especially in sunlight, and if I touch my hands to my face, it does come away with shimmer bits on it. However, I also find it to be among the more shimmery/glittery Meteorites out there. ![]() I find that Aquarella Meteorites gives skin a very lovely radiant glow that is very noticeable, without too much paleness as I’d experienced with Perles du Dragon. So, the easiest way to use this is to use a brush, swirl it over the pearls and apply to the skin. While each colour is supposed to perform a different function to illuminate and infuse skin with radiance, it is quite futile even picking up colour individually, because it all blends seamlessly on the skin to a translucent glow. ![]() The last is the most interesting of all because I’ve never seen that shade in any of the tubs I own. A quick note on Meteorites jars mine look super full because I put the powder puff at the bottom instead of on-top.I managed to identify 6 different shades of balls in the tub – a pearly white, a pearly champagne, a gold, a mint green, a light pink and a shimmery purple-grey. By noon of the first day of launch, when I tried my luck at the 2nd of 2 counters where these were available, there were only 2-3 pieces of each left. In Singapore, only 12 - yes, you read it right - 12 pieces of each item were brought in for the entire country. The stocks are extremely limited globally, as far as I can tell. Thierry Wasser describes it as "the allure of the sun in a bottle.“īefore you get happy, make sure you give your nearest Guerlain counter a call first. A whisper of musk and vanilla sweeten the background and give the perfume a bit of structure and solidity. Centered on tropical white flowers like Tiare, Jasmine and Orange Blossom, but has the undeniable sunblock-like notes of coconut. The last is Thierry Wasser’s latest masterpiece, Terracotta Le Parfum Edition Limitée 30 Ans. It would probably be lovely on those with tan to darker skins though. ![]() It’s beautiful to look at for sure, but before you rush out to buy it, take note the gold overspray is ruined from the first use and I personally find the mix of tan, orange and terracotta-red shades a bit unflattering for fairer complexions. The second is a Terracotta Sun Celebration bronzer compact. But unlike the regular Meteorites, it’s definitely slightly more shimmery and sparkly (see concentrated swatch above) so it would work better as a highlighter than an allover powder for most people except the ultra fair. I’m completely in love with it it’s gorgeous. A gorgeous pink-tinned Meteorite powder called Aquarella, which contains regular rose, beige, and ivory pearls, a long with metallic gold and sparkly silver ones to jazz up the skin. This year, Guerlain is launching 3 key pieces for Summer. Guerlain Météorites Aquarella for Summer 2014
