Hi Brie! You're not alone about the eye pencils... I've heard a few other influencers say that they tug. But the overall colors, lipstick and highlighter are beautiful on you!
Hey!! Thanks for the lovely comment, and thanks for the heads up about what some others have experienced. It wore better the next day wheny lids were more moisturized, but it was a bit of work that first time.
You look lovely! I think the eye pencils just take a bit of getting used as they are markedly different from the VBB eye kohls, which is a different formula. I have Vert Titien and it’s a really stunning teal green. I was in the post office the other day and the postmistress even commented on it, how much she liked the colour. The pencil does seem to be easier to apply from the second time onwards. The first application was difficult and also caused transfer to my upper (hooded) lids. But no issues second time. However, longevity is not as good as VBB kohls, and whilst I still caught a flash of green at the end of the day, it did seem that much of it has disappeared over the course of the day. I have just bought Rouge Sellier as the colour speaks to me so shall see if application/ longevity is any different. I bought the highlighter today - available only on the Hermes website. I passed on the entire Chanel and Dior holiday collection so this is my Christmas splurge.
That lipstick is beautiful on you. Hermes is my favorite lipstick, I hate to say. I bought the first one because I had a gift card and it had been recommended. I just never expected I would love the formula so much. Rose Spice is my favorite so far, and I see they have a pencil in the same color. It looks very similar to the color you had on in the end. I haven’t tried their eyeshadow yet, but am thinking about it. Thanks for the excellent demo!
Thank you, Melinda!! You have an expensive fave. Lol. Thanks G or sharing your favorite. I really recommend their eyeshadow if you like more subtle, wearable, washes of color. They build up nicely, but are never too much!
Eek! I had my fingers crossed that you would review the highlighter. Definitely picking it up now and still debating the eye quad but I’m a sucker for green shadows.
It's such a beauty!! Enjoy when you get it. Hermès also has the Vegetales quad which has more green shades. I have come to really love green shadows, so I can relate!
Brie - this is my first time watching your video and I'm so impressed! I'm glad you tried the new illuminator as I was questioning if it would be too cool on my complexion (which is similar to yours). I'm happy to see you using their bronzer too because I have been contemplating it versus the Armani one. Thoughts?
Thank you for your lovely comment! I don't have the Armani bronzer. Too many came out, but I know it's really popular. The Hermès bronzer is an absolute favorite. I have 2 shades. I've only heard people speak highly of their bronzer. Sorry I can't give any feedback on Armani. I'm not a fan of cool highlighters, and this one is safe for me.
Loved your look! Blue and bronze eyes for the win. The highlighter looks beautiful. Germany makes the best pencils from the stationery kind to the cosmetic kind and most brands manufacture theirs there. ❤
Thanks, Cat!! Yes, the colors are so good. Thanks for the info on Germany. I ended up doing my own reaserch after I filmed. I was very curious and found out about the history of them making pencils.
Sigh…both the lip and eye pencils are completely sold out on the Harrods site. Nordstrom is sold out with the eye liners as well. Do you know when the U.S. Hermes site will be offering them?
I don't, and I'm actually surprised they're not on there yet. Listen, Cult Beauty is a UK retailer. That is where I got mine. My link is in the description of this video, for the pencils, with Uk/EU/International next to it. Because the threshold in the US is high, it's worth you checking out how much shipping is from them. I will post on my Instagram page when they become available at more US retailers.
@@joanroyle6944 They're now available at Saks!!! Here is my affiliate link, rstyle.me/+xE0yKkIwpoSubp3HQ8rjpA Links are also now in my description. I replaced the Nordstrom links!
