Strangely, two extra summer products from the Givenchy Gypsophila Summer 2017 collection turned up yesterday, so it’s good to see them in context with THAT palette!
So, the extras from the collection that I have are Mascara Top Coat in Green Gypsophila (£21) and Rouge A Porter in Red Gypsophila. The mascara top coat comes on a doe’s foot wand (this is a liquid lipstick accident waiting to happen particularly if you like edgy shades and have a few!) but in use, I find it better to transfer to a spare mascara brush and coat that way. I like to just coat the very tips of my lashes after adding black mascara – this shade has a metallic element so the theory is that there should just be some light catchy interest rather than a full green coat. Although, go ahead if you like that look! Why not?
The Rouge A Porter is sheerer on the skin than it looks in the bullet – it’s a little bit coral in tone but predominantly red and it’s wrapped in a pale green ‘skin’ of faux leather. It’s £28.
The Rouge A Porter is very wearable – a summer sheerness with a light sheen. The only things missing (because it’s a small collection this time) is the Le Rouge in Coral and Noir Couture Mascara in blue.
