A Quick Look at the New Laura Mercier Belle Nouveau Collection

April 11th, 2012 by Karen 27 Comments

Just a few pics of the new Laura Mercier Belle Nouveau collection I snapped before heading out to my hair appointment this afternoon.

I’m actually back home now … with my new hair! 🙂 The new ‘do will make its blogging debut soon. Right now, though, I’m not in any condition for pictures (I’m already in my jammies).

Laura’s new limited edition collection, which arrives on counters and online next month, was inspired by her background as a painter and her love for the Art Nouveau era.

Here are five of the 14 pieces from the release, including Laura’s first-ever tinted mascara, Long Lash Mascara in Bleu.


Clockwise from the burble bottle of polish on the left: Nail Lacquer in Lavender Cloud, Crème Lip Print in Nude Pink, Long Lash Mascara in Bleu, Lip Glacè in Orange Tulip and Sheer Crème Eye Colour in Aqua Pastel

    The Creme Lip Print looks nice! I’ve recently been told to try wearing a blue mascara and here you are, featuring one. Will have to take a look 😉 Can’t wait to see your new hair!

    I’m loving the Lip Glacé. As far as nail polishes go I’m afraid I need more time to play with my Hunger Games polishes. They arrived yesterday and I’m already rocking Agro. LOVE!

      Hi Karen,

      That shade would look great on you! Maybe with your MAC Peaches blush?

      And YAY, I’m so happy to hear you’re loving the Hunger Games shades. What other colors do you like besides Agro?

    That lavender polish contrasts so nicely with your skin tone! Super dorky, but every time I see “bleu” spelled that way….I think of chicken cordon bleu. Maybe I’m just hungry. 🙂

      LOL, EmmyJean! I do stuff like that too, especially with dessert-themed makeup.

    Oh the lip glace is gorgeous..

    I really like that shade of blue mascara but I don’t know when I would actually wear blue mascara. I’m too much of a black/brown mascara lover.

      Hi Fieran,

      You could easily pull this shade off! It’s pretty subtle, and only flashes blue from certain angles.

    I’m so torn–don’t know if I should get the Laura Mercier blue mascara or YSL’s from their summer collection. I’ve been looking for the perfect one to get those beautiful electric blue lashes from the Stella McCartney show!! The Lip Glace and Creme Lip Print will definitely be mine as well!!

      Hi Becca,

      It really depends on the lash look you want. Do you want something more POW or more natural?

    Interesting collection — and such a great contrast from the strong, bold colors of other brands! 🙂

      Hi Nina,

      It’s so soft and almost gentle, right? I wore the mascara yesterday and a gal from the MAC counter complemented me on it! It’s one of those subtle blue ones. 🙂

      How was your night? Did you do anything fun?

        Just chilled last night. Wednesdays are always busy at work so I needed the downtime.

        Its so soft, gentle and pretty! 🙂

    I love pastel eye shadows for eyes but, unfortunately, those are not for me. Still thinking if I should get the palette from Givenchy Spring…

    I’m waiting on some of these too–the grey pastel eye shadow, nude coral lippie and the blue mascara. The blue mascara takes me back to my high school days in the 70’s! It was faaar out man!

    I’ve been inspired since Mad Men this week to test out some pastel shadows like it’s 1965. The Aqua Pastel is absolutely perfect!! AH. The shadow looks amazing on you too, which obviously doesn’t hurt. 😉

    It’s so interesting how you pull blue so well! I guess this is not merely a skin tone thing. It’s probably also about confidence haha

    I want to love these, but they just feel washed out to me. I think I just prefer the neon trend to the pastel trend
