Luxury Lust List

Some pretty pictures of what I'm drooling over right now.


Givenchy Terre Exotique Healthy Glow Powder  $66 -- Probably too pretty to use, but doesn't the color also look like it would give a beautiful bronze glow to the skin?

Chantecaille Tiger in the Wild Palette  $78  (really any Chantecaille palette makes me drool) -- The shadows and blush (the shade in the lower left corner is a blush) are tigers!  Tigers!!  The shades also look really wearable.  Probably too pretty to use, too, though.  5% of the proceeds benefit TRAFFIC.


Guerlain Rouge G Le Brilliant Complete Shine Lipcolor in Bianca  $51 -- The packaging is killer.  I can only imaging what it would feel like to pull one of these out of my handbag.  Especially at the opera or somewhere where I'm all fancied up.  Although I'm guessing using this would feel fancy no matter what.

Tom Ford Cheek Color Blush in Love Lust  $57 -- I've heard/seen such great things about the Tom Ford makeup line.  It all has very elegant packaging, and it seems like the colors chosen for the various products are flattering. Christine from Temptalia raves about this blush, so of course it makes me want it even more.


Chantecaille White Tiger Poudre Delicate  $85 -- Again, it's a tiger!  Definitely too pretty to use.  Proceeds benefit TRAFFIC.

Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con No. 7 Plush Shadow in The Siren 210  $59 -- Gorgeous rainbow of buttery shadows.  Jen from Vibrant, Vivacious, Veracious Beauty Blog did an amazing look using this palette, which made me want it even more.

Yves Saint Laurent Baby Doll Kiss & Blush in Rose Frivole  $40 -- I played with one of these at Sephora and was impressed by the texture and staining power.

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat  $41 -- I have never tried this "cult" product that so many people love.  There are plenty of dupes out there these days (L'Oreal and Maybelline make cream illuminators housed in brush-tipped pens), but it would be fun to have the original.

What's on your lust list?

P.S. According to Wikipedia, TRAFFIC is the wildlife trade monitoring network.  It is a joint program of the World Wildlife Fund and the World Conservation Union.  (www.traffic.org)
