Givenchy Cosmetic Products - Highly Rated By Reviewers

Givenchy is a French fashion brand well known for its brilliant designer clothing for women. With many famous patrons in the past including Audrey Hepburn and the Kennedy family amongst others, Givenchy also creates fragrances, skincare, makeup and cosmetics.

Most recently, Givenchy found itself in the news for recruiting Justin Timberlake as their spokesperson for their new “Play” fragrances collection and for including a transsexual model in their Fall 2010 collection photo shoot.

Despite being largely under the radar, Givenchy makeup is actually rated very highly amongst users. Below we look at some of the Givenchy cosmetics that make it into reviewers must have lists.

The Givenchy Mattisime Absolute Matte Finish Powder Foundation SPF20 is one of those products that one avoids giving a try because of its hefty price and the small amount that you get for it. The compact itself is a beautiful design as one expects from Givenchy cosmetic products but the sponge is a bit too flat making it difficult to use around your eyes and nose.

Excellent for combination and oily skin, the Mattisime Absolute Matte Finish Powder Foundation SPF20 not only has sunscreen, but also actually gives you a natural matte finish to your complexion that lasts almost throughout the day.

Another excellent Givenchy makeup product is the Givenchy Pop Gloss Crystal, which more than four-fifths of reviewers said they would repurchase. Available in a range of colors that include regular ones such as red, pink and fuchsia and some out of the way shades like Glitter Orange and Crazy Beige, these lip-gloss’ are perfect for layering above your lipstick.

The only negative feedback for the Givenchy Pop Gloss Crystal is that the doe foot applicator gets grimy when the lip gloss is applied over lipstick and that the packaging is somewhat small for the price. The packaging itself is quite nice and the lip-gloss really does stay on longer than most.

Our last review goes to the Givenchy Acti Mine Makeup Base, which is a primer or makeup base that has a selection of shades described by fruits such as Mango, Strawberry, Kiwi, Plum and Peach and features a light fruity fragrance.

Not only does it brighten your complexion but it also adds a glow to your skin, furthermore it helps by making your makeup last much longer throughout the day. In fact, many users found that once applied, your makeup stays on throughout the day.

The Givenchy Acti’Mine Makeup Base also helps reduce redness and irritation on your skin.
