Chanel Spring 2013 Poudre Signee de Chanel Illuminating Powder

I only have time for a quick post today and I have to apologise in advance for the lack of swatches too. The powder is just too gorgeous, I haven't been able to touch it yet. I did swatch it in store and it is very soft, finely milled and gives a gorgeous sheen, not shimmer or glitter. I don't have pictures, so you just have to take my word for it, okay?


I just adore the details on this powder, it is pure perfection. I could just sit and look at it for hours. I think some of you might be able to understand why it's sitting untouched in my drawer right now (and probably will continue to do so for a long time).

The powder is an iridescent light pink colour, with very subtle shimmer. You get 8 g for your money which is a lot, seeing that it's Chanel and all, £46 to be precise. But just look at it...

I will be back tomorrow with some new products from the Guerlain spring collection, I finally have the mascara and the eyeshadows, we'll see what I get around to reviewing first.

See more pictures after the jump!

ArtDeco Dita Von Teese Illuminating Baked Powder Review and Swatches

I wasn't going to get this, I swear. I have plenty enough highlighters, I did not need another one. I certainly wasn't going to get this for £30. But then I saw it, swatched it, realised I had £15 on my Debenhams Beauty Reward Card and there was a 10% off event, and somehow this little beauty came home with me.


I have to admit, I don't know much about Dita Von Teese, other than that she always looks glamorous and gorgeous. I also didn't own many Art Deco products (until now), in fact I think I only had 2 or 3 eyeshadow palettes I've never used (they were too pretty). Until recently this brand wasn't easy to come by in the UK, but since Debenhams and BeautyBay started stocking it, I've been paying a lot more attention.

Hopefully you have seen my review of the Glam Deluxe Collection (if not, click here to read it), and there's even more gorgeousness to come, but for now, check out this beautiful highlighter. This is what Mac Lightscapade MSF should've looked like when it was re-released last year (?). The powder is a blend of beige, pink, blue, orange, yellow and mixed together you get a very fine slightly shimmery pastel highlighter. The effect is very similar to Lightscapade, but the powder is even prettier to look at. It also comes in a shiny black compact with a mirror in the lid, something Mac MSFs lack.

The powder is so soft and finely milled, but not powdery, it melts into your skin like butter. You get a whopping 15 g which should last a few lifetimes for £30, although currently you get 10% off at Debenhams. I believe this is a limited edition product, but unlike Mac MSFs, ArtDece seemed to have made plenty as it has been around for a few weeks now and is still in stock. It's really lovely and actually it's not that expensive considering its size, so pick it up while you can!

Buy Benefit Moon Beam for just £11 plus £1.50 p&p from BuyaPowa!

Have you always fancied trying out Benefit's Moon Beam highlighter but didn't feel like forking out £18.50? Now you can get one for just £11 plus £1.50 postage and packaging from BuyaPowa. They have 50 Benefit Moon Beams and the more people join in, the less it will cost, and it can go as low as £11. It is currently at £13 with 22 buyers, but no matter where you join in, everyone pays the lowest price. (Just a quick clarification, if you choose to buy, you will have to authorise the trasaction at the amount it's currently on, but you will only be charged for the lowest price, so don't worry about it. Also delivery is pretty quick and I have not had any problems buying from BuyaPowa.)


So come and join me, let's bring the price down and get ourselves some much needed glow! You don't have to, but if you decide to join the co-buy, I would appreciate it if you could click on me (Anita James) as the person who referred you. Let me know in the comments if you decide to buy!
