Hey guys! Bit of a random one today, so I visited the old store where I used to be a beauty counter manager to stock up on my Estee Lauder products, and my lovely friend gave me some samples - result! I've used the Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place High Cover Concealer (jaysus, what a mouthful) for years and years, it's just the best little concealer I've found for covering blemishes and redness in a hurry! It's one of the few make up products I carry with me every single day.
It has a handy little mirror in the lid (which I also use all the time), it's just a bit of a make -up savior for me, I adore it!
This body lotion is based off the new Estee Lauder perfume, Modern Muse - Le Rouge. Le Rouge is a beautiful, timeless scent with undertones of rose - which I LOVE!
It's, "A sexy, provocative contrast of two distinctively different accords - rich roses awakened by ripe fruits, with a seductive velvet creme accord - provide an intriguing dual impression. It's a true innovation in fragrance design, as complex and fascinating as the woman who inspires it.
"Who is Modern Muse Le Rouge? She's the captivating woman who makes a bold, colourful statement without saying a word. Her mantra is never go unnoticed. Daring, fearless, and seductive. When she wants to make a show-stopping impression, she wears the ultimate red – Le Rouge."
Quite a statement! But honestly, I have to agree. It's such a lovely, easy fragrance to wear, and the lotion is the same. The lotion has a tiny amount of beautiful, subtle shimmer in it, which makes it perfect for holiday - I'll deifnitely be taking it away with me come holiday season! I also got a sample of the Modern Muse Nuit... which I'm a little bit obsessed with. I first smelt this on a friend on a night out, and had to ask what she was wearing - she smelt incredible! That same friend, who works for Estee Lauder, gave me this sample - and it smells just as great as it did the first time around! "Drenched in glamour, this latest addition to the award-winning Modern Muse family is a true embodiment of night-time glamour and seduction. Inspired by mysterious opulence and intense luxury, Modern Muse NUIT explores the deeper and more addictive side of a Modern Muse. A daring and addictive rum accord features amidst a plume of rich Jasmine Absolute for a bold and modern take on seductive femininity. Notes of precious Amber and sensuous Musk enhance the luxury allure of this unforgettable scent."
"Addictive" is the right word to use here I think; it's such an attractive yet bold fragrance, one that will suit 99% of women I think. It's in the same bottle as the first Modern Muses, but the colour is soooo pretty, kind of a jade green colour, very original and expensive looking! If you haven't already, GO SMELL this perfume - it's stunning, and definitely on my wish list!
The last thing I purchased was a re-purchase of an old favourite - my fave lipstick, Crystal Baby. The packaging has now changed to the new bullets but I managed to get my hands on the old one which was still the old price, result! You can see the full review for Crystal Baby here. Meli X
