Givenchy's Summer 2017 Gypsophila Les Saisons collection was a breath of fresh air, a whimsical escape into a sun-drenched garden captured in a range of exquisitely crafted makeup and skincare products. The collection, named after the delicate gypsophila flower – also known as baby's breath – perfectly embodied the ethereal lightness and romantic charm of a summer's day. This wasn't just a collection of makeup; it was an experience, a sensory journey designed to evoke the feeling of carefree summer days spent basking in the sun's golden glow.
The heart of the collection, and arguably its most talked-about piece, was the Poudre Bonne Mine Healthy Glow Powder in the shade 02 Douce Saison. Priced at £44.00, this limited-edition powder promised – and delivered – a sun-kissed radiance that was both subtle and sophisticated. The packaging alone was a work of art, mirroring the delicate beauty of the gypsophila flower with its intricate design and soft, pastel hues. The powder itself was finely milled, ensuring a seamless application that didn't look heavy or cakey, even with buildable coverage. This allowed for a customizable glow, from a sheer wash of colour to a more intense, bronzed effect. The shade 02 Douce Saison, translated as "sweet season," was a perfectly balanced blend of warm, peachy tones that complemented a wide range of skin tones, adding a healthy flush without appearing unnatural or overly orange.
The texture of the Poudre Bonne Mine was a key factor in its success. It felt incredibly lightweight on the skin, almost like a second skin, allowing it to blend effortlessly and seamlessly into the complexion. This was a crucial element, especially for warmer months when heavier makeup can feel uncomfortable and look unnatural. The powder’s ability to enhance the skin's natural luminosity, rather than masking it, was a testament to Givenchy's commitment to creating products that work *with* the skin, rather than against it. The lasting power was also impressive, providing a radiant glow that lasted throughout the day without significant fading or touch-ups required.
Beyond the Poudre Bonne Mine, the Gypsophila Les Saisons collection showcased Givenchy's mastery of color and texture across a range of other products. While specific details on the entire collection's contents are limited in readily available information, the overall aesthetic pointed towards a cohesive theme of soft, romantic shades, inspired by the delicate beauty of the gypsophila flower. One can imagine a palette of blushers echoing the subtle pink and peach tones of the powder, perhaps incorporating other soft shades like lavender and rose. Likewise, eyeshadow palettes would likely have mirrored the collection's ethereal theme, featuring soft shimmery shades and subtle matte finishes, perfect for creating a natural, sun-kissed eye look.
