It shouldn't, but packaging definitely has a big impact on my spending habits. I'm not saying I won't buy something if I don't like the packaging, but if I'm on the fence about something and it's got good packaging, that'll probably push me in the direction of the checkout.
One of my recent discoveries with gorgeous packaging is the Marc Jacobs Lolita Palette, have you ever seen anything so sleek and beautiful? I love the gorgeous black packaging, it's super slimline and sleek, it's super handy for travel! Also for eyes, the Lancome Hypnose Star Mascara isn't my favourite mascara, but I love the packaging, anything that's black AND sparkly is good in my books.
Not necessarily packaging, but I do love the look of the Shu Umera Lash Curlers, I just feel so sophisticated using these.
Not the most exciting or revolutionary packaging, but I love the rose gold colour of the L'Oreal Lumi Magique Concealer, there's something about rose gold that gets me every time. Also, the packaging of the Chanel Les Beiges Powder is not exactly game changing, but it just looks so beautiful, and it makes me feel like a real sophisticated lady person.
I'm a sucker for a well packaged lipstick. I've mentioned my love for the twisted gunmetal packaging of the Urban Decay Revolution Lipsticks before, they remind me of bullets and they're just seriously luxurious feeling, and heavy. Anyone else a fan of a heavy lipsticks? Just me? On the opposite end of the spectrum, I love the packaging of the Dior Addict Lip Glow, which to me feels like the perfect lipstick for a ballerina? Definite dressing table lipstick that one. I also have to mention the Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Lipsticks, which are just simple and sleek.
What are your favourite packaged products?
I get a bit swayed by packaging, even to the point where i will just right something off because of the packaging. But im getting better!
ReplyDeleteMarc Jacobs packaging is so sleek and gorgeous! I particularly love YSL lipstick packagingAllison from www.mercuteify.com
ReplyDeleteI would add Guerlain's packaging in general to the list. Le rouge G automatique is to die for !
ReplyDeleteGosh we are so similar, you like all the same sorts of packaging as I do, Tom Ford packaging is always gorgeous. I must admit, I am a sucker for Chanel packaging though - especially Les Beiges!Lxwww.elisabethrilatt.com

ReplyDeleteI felt like we share the EXACT same opinion about the packaging. I am a big sucker for cute packaging which makes the products so much more desirable to own. I love Chanel packaging and I just bought their Les Beiges healthy glow multi color powder and MAC's limited edition Alluring Aquatic collection.
ReplyDeleteNo Guerlain in here ? Their stuff is luscious !
