The most glamorous mascara from Guerlain!

1 min read

There have been a lot of new mascaras launched of late, but this must be the most glamorous yet. Noir G De Guerlain is the mascara version of their hugely successful Rouge G lipstick. (If you aren’t familiar with it, read this review on my own blog, and this post from this blog last year ).

Basically, Rouge G and now Noir G are gorgeous, vintage styled cases that conceal the product and a mirror. They are sleek, stylish and very clever. You simply twist and pull, and the mascara opens to reveal the mirror.

Noir G is also refillable – how fantastic an idea is that? You just pull the top to reveal the refill. There’s a little click on the top to release the mascara case, but the lovely Guerlain PR assured me that this can be done at counter for you if you wish.

British women keep most of their makeup for FAR too long. Did you know you should replace your mascara every three months?

As for the mascara itself, it claims to volumise, lengthen and curl, and I think it has a pretty good go at all three. It certainly adds length to the lashes, which for me is the most important thing.It comes in 01 Noir at the moment – a very black black.

And, it smells as lovely as it looks! Amazingly, Guerlain have created a special fragrance just for this mascara! It’s a blend of peach, rose, jasmine, white musk and, er, green vegetables! It is lovely – very rose.

Noir G is initially £35 and then it’s £19 for the refill, which makes it a pretty decent priced top end mascara.

Available at Harrods now, and nationwide from John Lewis, House of Fraser and Debenhams from February 1st.
