For Fall 2014, Lise Watier teamed up with youtuber Alex (Alex Fashion Beauty) for an exclusive, limited edition three-piece makeup collection that embodied Alex's fun and girly style. I had the chance to try out the collection and I wanted to share with you some of my thoughts and swatches! To read more, click.......
Packaging:
The Alex Collection packaging features two very trendy themes: rose gold and chevron. All three products have a shiny rose gold metallic packaging with matte embossings in a chevron design. Everything feels super luxurious but still very fun and chic.

Duo Blush & Glow ($29 CAD):
This is a highlighter blush duo. The highlighter is a warm rosy champagne shimmer and the blush is a peachy rose with a satin finish. Both are extremely pigmented and buttery-perfect formulation!

Eyeshadow Quartet ($33 CAD):
This is an eyeshadow quad feature four warm rosy shades. There are three shimmers: a pale pink highlighter, a rosy peach all over color, and a dark burgundy crease color. The last shade is a gorgeous matte mauve, perfect for blending. The formulation of all four shades (including the matte) is extremely pigmented and creamy, they honestly feel like they could be cream shadows.

Rouge Fondant Suprême ($24 CAD):
This is a semi-sheer, warm pink rose lip color with some subtle gold shimmers. The color swatches beautifully but was a bit pale on my lips. The formulation is very creamy and moisturizing but the wear is a bit short (three to four hours).

Overall:
Aside from the lipstick being paler than I would like, everything in the collection is a hit. Both the packaging and colors are so on trend and the formulation is simply top-notch.
