The year may have just begun, but I bet the Givenchy Sari collection goes down in the 2009 history books as one of the best looking collections this year. Don’t these compacts make you wanna shoop?
Do you like Sari’s packaging as much as I do? I haven’t used the makeup yet, but I’ll have a full review soon. For now I’m just blown away by the presentation.
I hope ya’ll had a nice Tuesday… I’m getting ready to do a yoga DVD and then make some pasta. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

Oh my gawd, how badly do I NEED that red lipstick?
By the way, Karen, have you seen this site before? I was laughing myself sick when I wasn’t paralyzed by the BaleHotness.

Briana says
The packaging is phenomenal. They’re cute to just look at, even if you don’t use whats inside… but who could resist the makeup either lol
Shefali says
Can’t wait to see your look. You and I have the same skintone and hair color so whatever looks good on you looks good on me 🙂
I’m dying to get my hands on this. Where do I find it?
Ariell says
that blush looks divine
Gloria says
OMG I want the pink eyeshadow palette. But it’s definitely too expensive for me right now. It’s so pretty though!!!
Who can resist a pretty shimmery pink eye palette? Definitely not this girl! Maybe I am all about sunshine and rainbows.

It’s fabulous that they seem to have produced a set of warm toned orange shades and cool toned pink shades! Thanks for the equal-opportunity love inside all that packaging gorgeousness, Givenchy!
Can’t wait to see some of those goodies on your pretty face! 🙂
Karen says
Hi Frances,
LOL! I’ve seen that link before, but thank you for sending it again because it ALWAYS cracks me up. 🙂
I love the one with the yoga pose!
Karen says
Hi Briana,
I think I’m under its spell. I can’t stop staring at it. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Shefali,
It’s online right now at Sephora! 🙂
WOOT… maybe this collection would be a good way to reward yourself when your test is done.
Karen says
Hi Ariell,
I am crushing on it hard. Which one do you like, the orange or the pink?
Karen says
Hi Gloria,
LOL, I am a sucker for pink as well. 🙂 I like pale pinks on the eyes with the occasional splash of hot pink!
Do you have a favorite pink eyeshadow?
Karen says
Hi Katee,
Right? I heart it, too!
Karen says
Hi Glosslizard,
I am all for equal opportunity makeup. It’s the basis for a good democracy… oh wait, I’m confusing that with something my journalism teacher said the other day. 🙂
Laura B says
Hotness! I *need* that apricot compact. Yum.
Tali says
I need something like that to make my make up collection look prettier.. Im a paul and joe eye gloss fan and I really want to try these eye shimmers and see if they compare! They look very pigmented!!
Tali says
Ohh by the way Karen.. look at Temptalia.com at the Mac Naked honey collection… i think youll love it! I can already imagine the looks youll come up with. Shame its 5 months away!
Shefali says
Oh it’s already online!! I want to check it out in person though. I never buy anything without swatching it myself first. Do you think it’s available in stores yet?
You’re so right…I could reward myself…but I’ve also been majorly eyeing the Guerlain Exotic Paradise collection. It had to be that both of these highly expensive caught my eye this season! I’ve got to choose…can’t get both. What would be your recommendation?
Karen B says
Those compacts look glorious! OMG pretty pretty pretty!

OMG,
I have said it before, but I will say it again. You know how to tempt a girl. I would love to have one of each of those Givenchy items. But I can only buy them online because there are no live vendors here where I live. I would really like to scope them out in person. But they are gorgeous. Givenchy and Guerlain are two makeup lines that really intrigue me. But they are like the men that I can only look at from afar and fantasize about because I will never see them in person. The model looks so beautiful, too.
But I am not worrying about makeup today. Where can I buy me some good weather here in the midst of an ice/snow storm. Sigh 🙁

Melissa Street says
So completely in love with this collection! Thanks for posting! I am completely obsessed with a nude lip and smokey eye and I bet I can create a fabulous light smokey eye with this collection! Bring it!
Milan says
My mouth is hanging open like a thirsty puppy…I want it! LOL…
cloudburst says
Can you swatch the silver & gold glittery eyeshadows please?

Michelle says
Wow I already want whatever’s in picture 5, the pinks. Beautiful! I can’t wait for your review. I’ve never purchased anything from this brand. What Yoga DVD do you use? I’ve been wanting to buy one but I’m afraid to end up with something really cheesy. My mom has one where the instructor just teaches you how to breath for most of the DVD. Snooze.
Karen says
Hi Michelle,
I’ve been doing this Power Yoga for Strength and Endurance.
Here’s the link to it on amazon if you want to check it out:

I like it because it isn’t terribly cheesy. Plus, it actually makes me sweat buckets!
Michelle says
Great, thanks!
