Another strong spring 2012 beauty collection and this time it’s from YSL. YSL Face Candy Spring 2012 collection was under the creative direction of Lloyd Simmonds. He crafted a well fine collection with full of fun, colorful details that’s brings out the joy of springtime.

The collection features sheer glosses, high pigmented eye shadow palettes, bold lip colors, and pastel color nail polishes. Who says you can’t pair bold eyes with bold lips?

“The gleam of an infinite profusion of dazzling fruit jellies, translucent raspberry and wild strawberry, mandarin orange, melon, mango and persimmon bring a gorgeous flush to the Yves Saint Laurent woman’s face. Her smile is as bright as shining sugared drops and syrups: shocking cherry, tangerine, grape and pomegranate, crystallized rose petals, mint and chocolate.” -Lloyd Simmonds

ysl-parisienne

Yves Saint Laurent new Parisienne Fragrance is a light floral scent that’s refreshing and my nose couldn’t be happier. It’s my new daily scent and the compliments are overwhelming. Seriously. I can’t walk past my job without someone noticing the scent.

The perfume is sweet but not overpowering and it’s great for day or night use.

So what makes YSL Parisienne so remarkably delightful?

With notes of blackerry, rose, and sandalwood mixed in, who can resist the delicious sweet and floral scent of Parisienne. Let’s not forget about the jewel cut bottle. Absolutely stunning and stylish. It’s very heavy too. I accidentally dropped it on my foot the other day. My foot sure wasn’t happy.

YSL Parisienne is a great fragrance to wear this season so spritz away!
