This winter L'OCCITANE has decorated its Shea Butter Range with colourful, graphic patterns, inspired by the Bogolan cloth- A traditional fabric from West Africa.

For these limited editions, L'OCCITANE drew inspiration from three flowers with subtle scents.

THE DESERT ROSE FROM MOROCCO is known for its generous blooms and fruity, zesty aroma, which perfumes the desolate landscape.

EGYPTIAN HIBISCUS delights the eyes with its array of different colours, from the purest white to the most passionate red. Its sensual, sunny perfume awakens the senses.

COCOA FLOWER FROM THE IVORY COAST, has a comforting, milky scent with a delicious hint of cacao.

Ultra Rich Body Cream (100ml) Rs.1590

Exceptionally rich in shea butter (25%), this body cream envelops dry skin in supreme comfort and softens, leaving it deeply nourished, protected and perfectly moisturized. This autumn, L'OCCITANE invites you to enjoy the cream in two new irresistible scents.

Nature's Brilliance - Mineral Eyeshadows

I had received samples from this brand some time back .. but was caught in other things hence never got a chance to test them out .... So these beauties were lying in my cupboard for quite some time now and few days back I decided to test them out. After using them for few days here's my take on the products : 

 About Nature's Brilliance:

Sue is the Sole Proprietor of Nature's Brilliance By Sue. It is located on the East Coast in a small town in New Jersey. It was formed to help people locate products for their skin tone & skin type.

Sue has dealt with multiple allergies for years and through persistance and exhaustive research has found a line of natural mineral make-up and organic skin and body care products suitable for all skin types, even those with multiple allergies.

Nature's Brilliance By Sue will not sell any product that is not 100% Natural or Organic and has not been tested by the owner her self. Sue has a Diploma in both Holistic Beauty Therapy and Holistic Herbal Therapy; with Certificates in Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Bach Flower Remedies, Crystal Healing, and Business Development for the Alternative Health Therapist, from the Natural Health Institutes, based in Canada.

The products: These are all mineral products, free of chemicals and parabens.To know more go to their website Click Here. They have mineral eye colors, blush, foundation, lip balms, lipsticks, lip gloss and hand and body cream.You can get 10% discount using the coupon code "RiddhiJ10"



My Experience with the product:

I am quite liking their mineral eye-shadows. Their color pay off is good.
The colors stay on for 2-3 hours even without a primer which is very good.
Nature's Brilliance have many colors available - especially if you like shimmery colors. They have few matte colors.

They offer sample sizes too which is great if you wish to try out a particular color.
These eyeshadows blend so easily. Since these are loose pigments you do have a fall- out problem but nothing that you cannot handle.
Mineral Eye-shadows are 100% natural which will suit sensitive skin. 

Here are the Swatches of the Eye-shadows: 

SHADE - COFFEE BEANS - This is a lovely dark brown shade with multi colored shimmer



SHADE - OCEAN BLUE - This is a lovely shimmery blue with multi colored shimmer in it


SHADE - BRILLIANT ORCHID - This is my favorite lilac color. Again this shade is shimmery


SHADE - FUSHIA FANTASY - shimmery lovely and chic pink !!



SHADE - AQUATIC - Matte Sea Green color.



SHADE - FORGET ME NOT - Matte white color - Great for highlighting



SHADE - PRIM ROSE - lovely shimmery hot pink



SHADE - SAPPHIRE - Again my fav - navy blue color with subtle shimmer



SHADE - PEACH SUNSET - MY Absolute favorite coral sunset color



SHADE - COPPER - Nice Copper shade.



SHADE - GOLD ROYALTY - Indeed a royal Gold color.


Love it or chuck it ?
Love it !! Definitely A MUST BUY !!!
