Trendy Thursdays ~ Old World Beauty Meets the New

On a super toasty day where walking seemed like the utmost effort I hit 57th street which between Madison and 5th Ave, every name that you could imagine that has left the mouths of the Sex and the City girls can be found. Regardless of the heat, you can't pass such names as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dior etc without being at least the tiniest bit - giddy! So as I headed to the corporate offices of Louis Vuitton to take in the Passport to Beauty, I knew that there would be an amazing presentation of new products that will be available this holiday and of course this fall! Please know that there will be lots of coverage on goodies as I start getting images but for now, I wanted to share 3 items that definitely caught my eye but there was way more than just these!

We kick it off with Givenchy's Mister Lash Booster, a fortifying serum for lashed that's Day Beauty and Night Beauty. Now, we have talked a lot about lashed and making them lush and lavish by ensuring that you stay with the process so you're always carpet ready. What definitely intrigues me about this is that it is in a tube that you can squeeze out what you need and wipe off the excess from the bottle. Without it being a brush, you don't run the risk of not being able to use the product - huge point for me. I like that you can use it in the day and that it is colorless so that you can still use your mascara (although you should wait a bit as it is a bit wet and takes a little time to dry). I believe that it's best at night as you can go to sleep with it so that your lashes are ready the next day to hit the street! This is a must to check out!

Guerlain's Kiss Kiss caught me off guard just with the way the bottle is. Before you purchase your gloss of choice you see the bottle as it is above without the pop of color that peeks out; however, once used, you have the color which I think is super cute and a little added touch! Beyond this element, it contains light boosting power of mother of pearl which allows your lips to not only be glossy but have the touch of sparkle! The glosses are also enriched with a number of vitamins, smoothing properties and of course anti-aging enhancements as well!

Finally we have Acqua di Parma, there will be more info on a new product that they are coming out with that had me go back twice to smell it but for now - Magnolia Nobile. The presentation of this bottle alone was phenomenal it was etched in 24K gold, the container it came in had raw silk and satin on it and I loved hearing that it was quite a process to create this scent as Magnolia (as a general rule) is a flower that as soon as it's picked it dies and thus the scent goes with it. It was such a rich scent that it was definitely the total package! It was an amazing hour or so to interact with each of these brands and to see what would be on the market soon!
