Guerlain's most popular product of the Spring 2009 Collection was the pale green lip gloss that was designed after the apple in the Garden of Eden. At first glance, I don't see any products that look like they could inspire that kind of madness in the collection that is new for this summer. But you never really know....
I have been stalking the Guerlain website for the past week for a description of this collection from them but they have been very slack in getting this collection up on their website. I guess it is the eternal spring in their world. I had to resort Sephora and Nordstrom to get some information on these new items.
Here is the collection...
Kiss Kiss Stick Gloss (Extreme Fruity Colors) - The first stick gloss by Guerlain, Kiss Kiss Stick Gloss continues to expand its palette of colors to embellish the lips with endless sparkles of light. In it's metallic summer packaging, with a satiny sand color, three new shades light up golden skin.

Blush 4 Eclats Sculpting Blush - Blush 4 Eclats is the ultimate in sculpting blushers. Its cleverly beveled brush is designed to achieve the perfect color effect. By brushing over the palette from left to right, the brush picks up the lighter shades and applies them to the top of the cheekbones. The darker shades naturally cover the lower cheeks to add depth and structure to the contours of the face.
- Soleil Couchant - range of pinky bronze shades
Le 2 de Guerlain Waterproof Mascara - The prodigious Le 2 de Guerlain mascara quickly claimed its place as a must-have tool in all makeup pouches. The main brush provides volume, length, and curl for the longest lashes, while the mini-brush helps to precisely define all small lashes and lower lashes. To keep your Le 2 de Guerlain at hand, even at the beach, it now comes in a waterproof version in new black-gold packaging. To deploy length, the first supple and liquid polymer helps surround the lashes with a flexible coating by encasing natural waxes. To protect curl and maintain hold, the second polymer, a humid resin, forms a setting film over the first coating as it dries.

- Noir Cruise #15 - black
Ombre Eclat - "Summer Splash" Eye Shadow Palette - Four sunny shades in a satiny, metallic case, evoking beaches of fine sand. The Ombre Eclat 4 Shades palette evokes a warmer climates with Perles des Mers. It adoptsd harmonies of a paradise beach dappled with heat, sun, and water. A pearly taupe and an iridescent turquoise set the tone and sculpt eyelids, while a pearly white and a pearly pink beige illuminate the eyes.
I am almost ready to shoot the eye shadow palette all the way up to the very top of my shopping list but i just can't get past the aqua shade in it. I love the other three shades but I know that that one will go unused. I guess I have to give this product some more thought. I will be getting the two shades of the single eye shadow and the waterproof mascara. I also really am curious about how the blush works to contour and I am considering to going to Nordstrom to have someone tell me more about this product. The Meterorites Pressed Powder is almost too beautiful to use, this is a product that I feel like I would buy and then never do anything but gaze at it.
Nice collection...but I am still lemming the green lip gloss.
PS - I apologize for the odd shaping in the beginning of this entry, I cannot get it to work out normally. No clue why...
