Vintage is everywhere !

Near my uni is a store called Monoprix and the way the store is organised you have to cross the makeup&clothes section to enter the supermarket/groceries part.

Of course i always check out the makeup they have, and i found this :

Bourjois has a vintage collection !

The brand's famous (at least in my country ) round pots were created in 1863 and those pics are old ads from Bourjois , the collection consists in 3 blushes and 5 eyeshadows.



The pink round thingies are the blushes, all of them pink (called Rose d’or, Lilas d’or, Rose frisson), the other colors are (in french) : noir précieux(black), blanc diaphane(white), beige rosé(beige), marron glacé (brown) & gris délicat (grey).

Sorry i couldn't find a pic of swatches.

The brand has launched a limited edition set only sold in one store in Paris, and the items are also sold separately everywhere else.

Honestly i find the packaging very cute, but the only thing that's vintage is the picture, so that's a bit disappointing. But i'm such a sucker for old ads i think i'll go check them out especially the blushes, i'm tired of mine .

OMG aude! I LOVE those! especially the pink ones! I want!

Those are too cute! I would definitely buy them just for the packaging. There are some makeup lines sold at Target that also have that vintage look to their packaging.

Those are extremely cute!!

Cute stuff!

I bought a blush and eyeshadow just for the cute packaging.

Super cute! I would've bought at least one just because of cute packaging. How evil that you have to walk through cosmetics to get to the grocery store.

Yeah- they definitely thought the layout of the store out huh?

Aww! I love them!

Those are gorgeous, I love vintage stuff

In fact i must admit i also go there because i know i'll be able to play with makeup a bit.

They are beautiful! I want!

I looove vintage makeup. So pretty!

so cute!!

Have seen these in the Bourjois counter. They are pretty tins, nice flowery type design. They are a bit small though.

I confirm, the blushes are slightly bigger than the eyeshadows, blah !

I bought one i took the one called Ashes of wallflower (34 Rose d'or). This one must be popular, it was the last It comes with a little round brush i'll put aside, it doesn't look very useful.

It's avery pretty pink, as much i love my Lily Lolo's blush, if i put too much it turns pinky peachy on me, and i hate that.
