There is always one thing that I a m loooking forward to after all the festivities in December: spring. Fresh, bright colors, blooming plants and flowers go hand in hand with a change of my wardrobe, perfumes and make-up products. While I love to wear dark, color rich eyeshadows, lipsticks and nail polishes during wintertime, spring is always about soft pastels and fun pink nuances for me. In order to celebrate the new season, Givenchy´s Over Rose Collection Spring 2014 took its inspiration from the spring’s roses. If you are a pink lover like me, there is no way you can get out of trying one of the following products:

“Removed from a certain naiveté with which it is often associated, pink is a subtle colour that delivers multiple messages. Gourmand, it is as enchanting as a river of strawberry cordial. Pink candyfloss from childhood. Romantic, it is draped in poetry and tenderness. Sensual and excessive, it blossoms in extreme femininity.”

givenchy-overrose-spring-2014-01Givenchy´s Prismissime Euphoric Pink palette combines nine pretty pink shades for lips and cheeks: Passionate, Loving ,Youthful, Romantic, Tender, Childlike, Aphrodisiac, Sentimental, Dreamer. This looks like the product of this spring.

givenchy-overrose-spring-2014-02Rouge Interdit Shine No. 36 in Rose Sensation is a sheer formula which is very hydrating so the strong color you see on the tube doesn’t transfer to the lips that way, but it still has enough pigment to show up. For an intense pink look on the nails, Le Vernis Rose Addiction No. 06 is just perfect.

Prisme Yeux Quatuor Nr. 86 Rose Attraction offers a set of four eye shadows with a peach, pink and bronze theme. All colors can be combined or worn alone, and the neutral shades make the palette very versatile.

The Mister Eraser Imperfection Correction Pen touches up any mascara or eyeliner mistakes and smudges; the Noir Couture Nr. 4 Mascara is in a deep, dark ink shade and looks very natural when applied.

givenchy-overrose-spring-2014-05The Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow Nr.10 Rose Illusion is part of a new line of very long lasting eyeshadows (which will be revealed later). This color could be perfect to wear alone or combined with the palette.
