| The By Terry Impearlious Collection for Holiday 2016. |
The end of October marks the emergence of a host of holiday releases! Many of you have requested an overview of the *By Terry Impearlious Holiday Collection and I am happy to deliver…from dreamy incarnations of the famed Baume de Rose to a chic and subtle highlighter, this set of limited-edition releases is rife with brilliant gifts for By Terry lovers…I daresay you’ll want to pick up a present or two for yourself as well!
Kindly scroll on for more details, swatches and images of the By Terry Impearlious Holiday Collection as well as a couple of new cheek products on heavy rotation and the Bottom Line…
First up is the extra large *By Terry Impearlious Baume de Rose Deluxe. Nestled in a box of preserved roses, this stunning jar of decadent salve works to instantly moisturize lips, cuticles and dry spots, all the while lilting with the intoxicating scent of roses. I have long loved this formula (previously reviewed HERE and HERE) and highly recommend this luxurious splurge as the gift that keeps on giving.

Next, the *By Terry Impearlious Elixir de Pearle envelopes skin in a glowing, soft focus sheen that never looks glittery or overtly shimmery. This particular version has a tender pink undertone that looks incredible atop makeup (on the high points of the face) or mixed into foundation (as I have done in the images at the end of this post). Not only aesthetically pleasing, this formula is also packed with skincare benefits for a serum-like effect that beautifies with every application.

For those that prefer a touch of portable pink gleam in their lip treatments, the *By Terry Impearlious Baume de Rose Crystalline Bottle is the radiant answer.

For those that adore smooth color payoff and intense lasting power in their eye shadows, the *By Terry Impearlious Ombre Backstar Gift Collection is sublime. The five versatile and blendable tones work in harmony to create a gently incandescent eye look that simply doesn’t budge and you can’t beat the deal of the set ($155 for 5…they usually retail for $44 each):
- 01 Black Pearl: A rich charcoal black
- 03 Blonde Opal: A glimmering pale gold
- 04 Bronze Moon: A opulent neutral bronze-meets-taupe. Both my mom and I have gone through at least four units each of this remarkably flattering shade. I cannot recommend it enough!
- 06 Frozen Quartz: A luminous fleshy warm pink.
- 15 Ombre Mercure: A radiant platinum taupe.

The breathtakingly resplendent *By Terry Impearlious Voile de Pearle compact houses a delicious highlighter with three finely milled, distinct powder shades that can be applied alone or mixed together for a neutral illumination that enlivens the high points of the face with every stroke. The luminosity is extremely subtle, working inconspicuously on a spectrum of skin tones and types, including those with enlarged pores and fine lines. It even performs well as a finishing powder…get this.

| Swatches from L-R: All three shades mixed, the luminous beige, the matte ivory and the radiant bronze-gold. |

| Highlighter and cheek color options on heavy rotation. |
In addition to the stunning By Terry Impearlious Voile de Pearle, this season has yielded some other key cheek color and highlighter options that I have had on heavy rotation this month:
The *La Mer Illuminating Powder (also reviewed in my latest story for the Neiman Marcus blog) is a geometric masterpiece, with three different shades of incandescent powder designed to be swirled together for an all over brightening effect that blurs fine lines and imperfections. The gentle glow it imparts is extremely understated and the overall result is wildly impressive. This is one of those indulgences that is just as beautiful on the face as it is in the compact!
 |
| The La Mer Illuminating Powder comes with a small brush and its own velvet pouch for expert portability. |

Next, the *Becca Blushed with Light Palette is my new blush obsession. Boasting three shades of cheek color, this slender creates a flushed and glowing cheek in seconds:
- Mineral Blush in Wisteria: A cool and subtle matte rose
- Mineral Blush in Songbird: A radiant and warm peach
- Luminous Blush in Snapdragon: A cheerful medium coral pink
I like using Songbird to warm up my face, a touch of Snapdragon on the apples of my cheeks with a dash of Wisteria on top to set and finish the look. The blush shades are smooth, finely milled and have immense blendability; although there is a touch of radiance, in my experience the formulas are less glowy than other Becca blushes, making this trio apropos for those who prefer a more natural finish to their cheek color.
