  • Laduree Mini Face Color Rose from Japan

    11.04.2012

    can you believe these are mini face blushers?
    (we're not even talking about the big one yet)

    I've been gushing over Laduree's blusher for some time now ever since I saw their beautiful face blusher pot with rose petals online. Since a friend was in Japan, I manage to "convert" her into a Laduree fan! Who can resist falling in love with these rose petal inspired blushers that makes every girl feel like a delicate princess? I know I can't that's why you're seeing some Laduree cosmetics on my blog.


     gorgeous rose petals in a tiny box
    (this particular design belongs to Candy)

    this cost RM150 can you believe it?
    (apparently they're hand made)

     the petals are heavenly rose scented
    (this is the plastic that protects it)

    the limited edition mini pots
    (this particular design belongs to Wing)


    this is mine in 01 shade

    Candy says there was a long que up to this small Laduree cosmetic counter in Isetan. She didn't quite believe people will go crazy over things like this. It's the Japanese themselves who's hauling the collections in their arms before it goes OOS (out of stock). Seriously I read several blogs and they say that the blusher pots are OOS all the time. I thought it would be a cheaper alternative to own the much talk about blusher in the form of the special edition mini face color (that's fast being sold out) for RM150 instead of buying the original pot + petals that costs nearly RM450 to get. It comes in 3 colors by the way and fast being sold out too.

     the Les Merveilleuses Laduree Holiday Collection 2012
    (gosh they're all so expensive to get)

     see the limited edition holiday mini face color packaging?
    (these posters are from les merveilleuses website)


    the famous Laduree Petals Blusher with pot!

    see how beautiful it is? the pot is bought separately!
    (all totaling to nearly RM450)

    the special edition mini face color blushers RM150
    (to own and to love if you can't get the pot)

    Did I mention I bought the pot and petals? LOL I just can't resist it. This is going to be my Christmas present for myself even though I'm so broke. I can just imagine it on my wedding photos! (well during bridal make up session ahaha). The scent is so strong and powdery! Totally love it. I'll do a post on my pot + petal haul coz I really want to show it in a nice picture. The pictures you see here on the mini pots are taken at night so the quality of the picture didn't turn out well.
