Laura Mercier Face Illuminator in Spellbound - Fall 2013

Laura Mercier released her Dark Spell Fall 2013 collection ahead of many brands. I love the collection image- it really conjures up deep, dense looks with within a haze of molten rose gold that is Spellbound.
I was able to get this, my first LM illuminator, and would like more from the collection, but they were not yet available at the counter. A have quite a few of her products even thought I have not reviewed them, but Spellbound is a real stand out.


This metallic rose gold powder is housed in a lightweight, but sizeable black compact. The powder has a swirling look as you would get when peering into a cauldron with a spell being stirred. It is really pretty. While this illuminator has quite a metallic finish, it is only more apparent when light hits it at different angles. I have swatched it quite heavily, on the cheeks it has less pigment but still with a definite rose gold gilded effect.

Have you been enticed by any of the Laura Mercier Dark Spell Collection?

  1. THAT is just super beautiful. But since I've heard it's very close to some others released in the past, I will just admire from afar!

    1. I missed the LM holiday 2012- I think this was pretty close. I do love it even if I look like a fair G-d mother!

  2. Very pretty, I am quite tempted by that and also the deep green polish from the collection :)

    1. If you do not have a rose gold illuminator this is the one to get! That green polish is sooooo nice- but I might have to pass as shipping of nailpolish is prohibited- many sites won't do it.
