Today I am presenting you a brand new category, the “New In” category. These are basically new products in my collection that I have swatched to show to you, but I haven’t been able to try them out thoroughly.
The product that I am presenting you today are the Loose Pearls by Yves Rocher. I got the colours 67722 Copper (pictured on the left) and 67427 Pink.

Bottle 0.1 oz. / 3g

These pigment have been calling my attention for a while now. However there were two reasons that were holding me back.
The first reason was their price. Each bottle contains 3gr and costs you 18,00 euros. Compared to other pigments I really like, I find this a bit expensive. For instance Kiko pigments cost you 5,90 euros and you get 6gr. Or even Mac, where you get 4,50gr for 22,00 euros. So this means the Yves Rocher Loose pearls are even more expensive as a high end make up brand such as Mac, while I don't really consider Yves Rocher to be a high end make up brand. So I got these in the January sales, and they gave me a 50% discount on both bottles. They tend to have promotions often, so make sure you check those out if you are thinking of purchasing any of their products.
The second and main reason why I hesitated in buying these, is due to allergic reactions to this brand in the past. This has been years and years ago, when I was still in my teens. But so far so good, when I doing the swatches, I kept them on my arm all night and I didn't get an allergic reaction. However I usually tend to do a second test to be sure.
The bottle is really cute. It is made out of glass so be careful not to drop it. The colour pay off is really good, as you can see in the picture above. I simply used an eye primer for pigments underneath and applied them dry. Once I have played around with them more I will write you a review on them.
But in the meanwhile, let me know whether you have tried them yet and how you liked them.
