The launch of its Flawless Contouring Palette was announced by the beauty brand, Laura Mercier to be released this month. Including of a selection of neutral shades in a darker range that enhance in face sculpting. Laura Mercier’s product is designed to define and highlight the facial features to enhance natural beauty.

The new, exclusive contouring palette contains three neutral brown matte shades in a darker shade that enables everyday contouring to be discrete and works to define and highlight natural features with five delicate, buildable crèmes. The extraordinary formula, more blendable than typical contouring powders, allows for a flawless application and finish. The set also contains two créme highlighters, both light and dark, for a lighter reflection in contrast to further enable the art of contouring and Laura’s step-by-step tutorial guide and quick fix tips for guidance. The brand founder has described how the kit will help you ‘cheat by sculpting the face in key places that can help shrink certain features and absorb the light where needed. The use of a highlighter is ideal for areas that need to come forward and reflect the light. The use of a neutral brown colour absorbs the light and allows you to decrease volume in a non-obvious manner.’

In addition to this, the beauty brand has also unveiled its Infusion de Rose Collection, comprising of a Nourishing Oil and Nourishing Créme; a collection of balancing, restorative products enriched with Rosehip Seed Oil. The oil, an invigorating blend of natural, skin-conditioning super-oils, works to rejuvenate the skin while at the same time strengthens the moisture barrier, protecting the skin against environmental aggressors. The fast absorbing oil will leave skin with a healthy glow, soft and renewed.

The Nourishing Créme that comes with the collection is a light-weight cream that works to hydrate and restore natural radiance and softness of the skin. This is enabled by its contents of extracts of mango and shea butter that moisturise and condition the skin, while also comprised of a complex of vitamins that work as natural antioxidants to protect against free radicals as well as combat signs of premature ageing. The silky smooth crème instantly absorbs into skin without leaving any greasy residues.
