French makeup is a complete mystery to me. The glowing skin, flushed cheeks and effortless cat eye flicks are so far beyond perfect, that is too difficult for anyone else to replicate.\u00a0So,\u00a0when I heard\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0had teamed up with designer\u00a0Isabel\u00a0Marant, I was over the moon because the chance of replicating perfect French girl makeup might finally be\u00a0achievable! Counting down to\u00a0its\u00a0release\u00a0date\u00a0on\u00a0September 19th, here\u2019s why I’m completely in love with L’Oreal x Isabel Marant makeup collaboration<\/p>\n
As much as I\u2019d love to be buying Chanel, Dior and Yves Saint Laurent makeup every week, I just can\u2019t afford it which is why the\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0x Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0collection is the perfect alternative. It\u2019s possible to buy the whole collection for under sixty pounds, which I\u2019ll admit sounds like a lot but when you think Chanel Rouge Coco range is\u00a0thirty-one\u00a0pounds per lipstick, getting an eye shadow palette, brow mascara, cheek tint, highlighter and a lipstick for\u00a0fifty six\u00a0pounds is pretty damn good.<\/p>\n
The palette created by\u00a0Marant\u00a0has the most\u00a0beautiful\u00a0shade of green ever. With\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0shimmery accents, it looks like the perfect colour for creating the ultimate French\u00a0smoky\u00a0eye. Alongside\u00a0its\u00a0jet black\u00a0companion, there are\u00a0countless options of eye shadow styles to create from just the two colours. The\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0x Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0Smoke Palette even offers you a guide on how to create the perfect French woman eye. Unfortunately, it\u2019s already out of\u00a0stock,\u00a0so make sure you get your hands on this when stocks return.<\/p>\n
The whole collection is named appropriately. For example, the Colour Riche Lipstick has \u201cSMILE\u201d printed in large white letters across\u00a0its\u00a0barrel, while the Brow Mascara has \u201cWANTED\u201d branded down the side and the Highlighter has been given the word \u201cSHINE\u201d. The bold white letters on the black background of each product makes everything look sophisticated and chic. In\u00a0other\u00a0words, very French indeed. You\u2019ll definitely want to have the\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0x Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0collection in your make up bag.<\/p>\n
Of course\u00a0a French designer would be able to create every perfect shade of lipstick. From the perfect nude pink to an alluring bright red, all the shades are at the absolute peak of perfection. And\u00a0of course,\u00a0they have all got really cool French names like La Seine Shadow for a lovely rose pink, Belleville Rodeo for a deep berry colour \u2013 I can see Caroline De Maigret loving that shade – and Pigalle Western for the brightest of bright reds. Honestly, you\u2019ll want every shade of lipstick from the\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0x Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0collection.<\/p>\n
It would be a damn shame if this entire collection, created with the perfect French\u00a0makeup in mind, was actually made by someone who was born in the USA or the UK. As much as I am an advocate for beautiful British makeup brands and I adore that they create British makeup trends, I am so glad that\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0selected a woman who has all the knowledge of what being a Parisian woman means to collaborate with on this makeup collection. Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0is a beautiful French woman, who has taken the true allure of her heritage and created a dazzling makeup collection within the\u00a0L\u2019Oreal\u00a0x Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0release. If it wasn\u2019t made entirely by a woman (and French designer) who has the knowledge to breath the mystery of Parisian allure into the collection, well it\u2019d all seem slightly\u00a0imposter-ish.\u00a0So, thank God Isabel\u00a0Marant\u00a0was born in Paris.<\/p>\n
