Laura’s iconic, cult-favorite setting powder now comes in a glow finish.

For the first time, you can set your look with a glow finish. We have taken Laura’s cult-favorite Translucent Loose Setting Powder and infused pearl pigments so you can lock in your look for 12-hour wear with a healthy glow finish.

“This powder is an immediate pick-me-up, it immediately makes the skin look alive.” – Laura Mercier

This lightweight, innovative powder allows you to keep a natural glow and doubles the wear of foundation, without adding weight or texture. It creates a healthy-looking, radiant finish with a touch of sheer coverage that resists settling into fine lines and pores. This no-flashback formula means you’ll look great in photos, and creates a soft-focus effect to subtly blur the look of fine lines and imperfections without looking cakey.

These truly translucent shades work on all skin tones—from the fairest to the deepest and sets makeup for 12-hour long lasting, luminous weightless wear. Apply with the specially designed Glow Powder Brush to achieve a healthy glow that sets makeup flawlessly to prolong makeup’s wear.

Laura designed the Glow Powder Brush to be used with Translucent Loose Setting Powder – Glow. The unique shape fits the contours of the face and is designed to lay the powder down evenly on skin, leaving behind a consistent and uniform veil of luminosity.

The Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Glow Powder is priced at AED 184 and the Glow Powder Brush is AED 183. The products are available since 1st September 2018 at Sephora Middle East.

At Benefit, we believe that the most powerful influencers are our customers. This is why we created and hosted our very first user-generated campaign for the launch of the NEW Brow Contour Pro!

In June 2018, nine benebabes from around the world flew to San Francisco, where Benefit was founded, to take part in one of the biggest launches for the brand this year. None of the girls were bloggers, influencers or key socialites; they were just big fans of Benefit Cosmetics, who followed us on Instagram and shared their constant love for the brand.

Benefit skimmed through the regions’ major Instagram accounts and randomly selected one girl from each region, including the Middle East!

Zain Yehya, a young girl living in the United Arab Emirates, has been chosen amongst Benefit Middle East’s Instagram followers to represent our babes here in the Middle East for this campaign. Zain flew off to Beauty Central office in San Francisco and got to live the benebabe lifestyle for a couple of days, with girls from all around the world!

Her first day was dedicated to an “all brow products lesson” by Jared Bailey, Benefit Cosmetics Global Brow Expert, followed by the Brow Contour Pro grand reveal! The second day was dedicated to content creation from A to Z. But guess what? Everything was shot with an iPhone X!

This campaign is all about showing girls around the world that you don’t need to be a makeup artist or an influencer to do your brows #LikeAPro – you just need Brow Contour Pro!

Do your brows like a pro!

Define & highlight your brows with this 4-in-1 contour pencil. Our multi-tasking brow pencil features a lighter brow shade, deeper brow shade, edge definer and arch highlighter to create clean, shaped brows with depth & dimension. Turn shapeless, flat brows into defined, contoured brows in an instant. Available in 5 shades for a wide range of hair colors and skin tones!

SUMMER IS HERE AND GUERLAIN OFFERS an explosion of colours. THE LATEST ADDITIONS TO the Météorites range REVEAL NATURAL BEAUTY BY PAIRING colour correction AND radiance. Sparkling freshness, PLAYFUL PEARLS AND A FRUITY, POWDERY FRAGRANCE… A RAINBOW OF SENSUALITY FOR a summer season FOCUSED ON joyful AND luminous seduction.

MÉTÉORITES RAINBOW PEARLS

Now iconic, they deserved to be celebrated with a collector’s case. This summer, these light-revealing pearls of powder indulge in an arty rainbow-coloured case.

THE COLLECTOR’S CASE: SO ARTY!

It opens to unveil the Météorites, which combine delicateness, radiance and sheer correction: pink pearls to provide freshness, mauve to help catch the light, yellow to even out skin tone, blue to revive a dull complexion, apricot to brighten shadowy areas and green to diminish redness. Applied with the Guerlain Météorites brush, the Météorites pearls infuse the skin with radiance by helping to trap the light with the Stardust technology and its diamond powder.

MÉTÉORITES LE PARFUM

AN OLFACTORY IMMERSION IN THE HEART OF THE COLOURFUL AND ENCHANTING MÉTÉORITES WORLD

Guerlain aimed to capture all the freshness and delicateness of the legendary Météorites in a fragrance. These multi-coloured pearls of powder that reveal the beauty of each woman also make a statement with their delicate violet scent. Thierry Wasser, master perfumer of the House, sought to recreate the Météorites’ sweet and enveloping smell by entering the pearl manufacturing workshop for the very first time. He reworked violet in its every facet: from its wafting green notes to its woody base to its powdery notes. In the top notes, an apple note adds a slightly tangy fruity touch, while rose and violet notes swirl together into a floral bouquet deliciously revealed by the sensuality of white musks.

The fragrance is housed in the same round bottle as Terracotta Le Parfum, crowned with a silvery spray and a slightly pearly pink cap. The textured paper label takes up one of the emblems of the Météorites range: the festoon in the colours of the powder pearls, spruced up with dashes of silver. Météorites Le Parfum, 100 mL.

KISSKISS

THE SHAPING CREAM LIPSTICK

Summer is also the season of kisses and lipstick is an incredible seductive asset. KissKiss is more than a simple lipstick. It is also a shaping cream that embraces the curves of the lips. Generous and delicate, KissKiss plumps and redefines the lips, becoming increasingly creamy with each application. Its fruity and slightly vanilla flavour invites sharing and kisses. This summer, KissKiss offers two new shades in the same intense chic black tube: a vibrant coral and an elegant mahogany – but why choose?

KissKiss Sexy Coral and KissKiss West Wood.

We can no longer contain our excitement … Finally, we get to reveal the long-awaited collaboration with Kuwaiti entrepreneur and influencer Noha Nabil where we proudly present The Velvet Nude Collection!

An extension to the Rouge Velvet the Lipstick range; the Velvet Nude collection consists of four exclusive Nude shades specially crafted to cater to the Middle Eastern women. Shade of luscious brown to the peachy nude, ladies in our region will now have access to the perfect nude lip colour that suits their skin tone – thank you Noha!

How did it all begin? Being a big fan of the brand, Noha was always intrigued to learn into the process of lipstick creation in the world of Bourjois Paris. In 2017, Noha was invited to the visit the Bourjois creative hub where all the magic happens in Paris. Noha worked hand in hand with the team on four special shades of colour she believes are a must for every woman to have.

Surrounded by desserts, an array of colours and paint palettes, Noha let her imagination run wild in in her world of the Middle Eastern Women à la Parisienne while she carefully pieced together the perfect shades.  Creamy Chocolate Blocks, drizzling Caramel, Peach tartes and violet macaroons… These are the colours and flavours that Noha felt mainly inspired to fit the skin tones of women from the Middle East. Bourjois and Noha together worked as a team and founded the four perfect shades that would cater to all the beauties of the Middle Eastern region. Noha explained: “For me, I believe one of the biggest challenges I have faced was that I never found that perfect Nude for my skin tone, this is something that I am certain many women in the Middle East face, but have no fear… The four shades of the Velvet Nude Collection are here.”

Feeling excited? It gets even better…Being an extension to the Rouge Velvet the Lipstick range only means that they are matte, long lasting and easy to apply with the tip being high in precision!  So not only do you get to wear a co-creation from your favourite makeup brand and Kuwaiti fashionista, you also have the benefits that are usually hard to find in one lipstick!

It’s all about the Nudes this season…

Bourjois Paris and Noha decided a nude range would best fit the needs of women in the Middle East. Noha also named all 4 shades, thrilling, we know! Want to get to know the shades better? Read on…

#14 Brownette: Noha wanted the ultimate lipstick to make a woman feel stronger and more confident… And what better way? This luscious chocolaty brown (so delicieux!) will give you the ‘edgy’ feel all while being within your Parisian chic mode. Go on, we dare you to try it…

#15 Peach Tatin; Practice what you preach, or let’s say peach…with your peachy nude lips! Inspired by her favourite French dessert, a Peach tarte Tatin, Noha created this fresh, happy and young shade that matches multiple skin tones!

# 16 Caramelody: did someone say darker nude lips? Yes please! As one of Noha’s favourite colours, she felt the need to create the perfect brown nude. Wear this to your breakfast meeting, or match it with your evening dress, this shade will fit whatever occasion you have planned

#13 NOHALICIOUS…the name speaks for itself, and isn’t it obvious that this is Noha’s much-loved shade? Swaying more to the pink and violet side of a nude, Noha has been long searching for such a shade with the perfect smooth texture…and of course, Noha created her very own version! Believe us, this colour will make your lips blush all day long
