I've been testing the Douglas Spring Look 2018 collection since it hit stores, starting during my stay at Villages Nature Paris. Perfect timing for spring vibes—I packed the eyeshadow palette, blush pearls, flower Kabuki brush, and two flower lipsticks to put them through real-world use.

The packaging alone is stunning, drawing me in immediately—especially the lipsticks and blush pearls. As a beauty enthusiast with years of testing products, here's my honest breakdown of each piece from this limited-edition lineup.
This palette offers a fresh, pastel vibe that's ideal for spring. The three lightest shades blend too closely for distinct looks, so they didn't show up prominently on my skin. However, the deep pink shade surprised me—it's versatile for everyday wear. I typically reach for darker shadows, but this one works beautifully blended under the brows with my finger for a warm glow 😉. I also highlight the inner corners with the lightest shade for subtle brightness.
Not revolutionary, but a reliable addition for light summer makeup.

Opening the box feels like unwrapping jewels—a 3-in-1 bronzer, blush, and highlighter in shimmering pearls. As someone new to blush pearls, I was excited, but the payoff fell short. The pigment is subtle, and building intensity is tricky; the powder doesn't pick up easily on the brush. It looks gorgeous on display (my friend Lotte adored it), but lacks the vibrancy I expect.

The star of the collection: this ultra-soft, short-handled Kabuki brush feels premium in hand and looks chic on my vanity 😉. Its dense bristles make blending effortless—I use it across products, not just the pearls.
♥ Available online at Douglas.
These perfume-infused balms are packaged like delicate flowers, with color concentrated in the center and a sheer outer layer. The design prevents feathering, a big plus. They deliver a glossy shine that fades quickly to matte—my preference is for lasting sheen with natural color. Available in three shades, they're unique but short-lived.
