ETEORITES - LIGHT-REVEALING PEARLS OF POWDER LIMITED EDITION

Phoenix soft blur

Purchased a few weeks ago and the contents are as pleasing as the exquisite packaging. Meteorites Phoenix leave skin with soft blurring radiance, perfection.

Beautiful colors and the limited edition Phoenix is a beautiful case!

Lovely

Replaced old meteorite compact. Love this. Subtle illumination and sets make up nicely.

Too subtle

I really love the packaging and the idea but still trying to figure out how best to apply this. It is very sheer, almost undetectable

Strongly fragranced but I love it!

This is such a nice product , I love how it brightens up my face. I picked up the light shade worried it wouldn’t look right on my medium skin tone but it looks beautiful. This powder makes my skin look glowy without looking greasy

Disappointing

This packaging is impossible to open without hurting myself or breaking a nail every time. It showed up as mess and only covers my fave in a fine glitter. I bought this as a birthday gift to myself after wanting it for 5 years. I am so let down by every aspect of this product.

expensive and shows texture

Just okay. very expensive for what it is. it's too shimmery for all over the face, so use sparingly. this one is a regret for me. I use it where I would apply a highlight, just for the sake of using it. I waited too long, or I would have returned it. Plus, this limited edition packing is ugly. It's not something I would display. It has a super strong smell, which i don't mind, but for people who are sensitive, I'd pass on this one

My all time everyday favorite

This is my every single day last touch up to my skin. This next fails to put a beautiful glowing veil over my skin

As a makeup setting powder, the makeup setting function and staying are weaker. But it can leave a beautiful light feeling on the face, if you want a light setting powder, for dry skin，this is a good choice

Worth the splurge

A beautiful addition to your collection. Looks subtle yet beautiful all over the face. Packaging is a real treat too.

Understand the Product Before Purchasing

Reading through reviews, I noticed some seemed to have been unsatisfied with the product, so I've put a great deal of time into this review so that you can understand a few things before purchasing so that you will know if this product is for you. In France, I learned the importance of the Guerlain Météroites brush when using this product. Luckily, when I purchased it there, it came with my Météorites set. Their brush was designed for best use with/of this product and it makes a noticeable difference when picking up the powdered colours and distributing them. Nylon brushes do not pick this product up well as the goat hair brush Guerlain designed for this product. In fact, you should not use a nylon brush with with at all. You'll notice that one of the main ingredients in the powder itself is nylon-12 so that it sits on top of the skin instead of being absorbed like certain ingredients used by other companies. If you've ever rubbed nylon against nylon, you understand what this is like. It's also important to note that I'm very light, fair and I rely heavily on Clair 02/léger iridescent colour correction as gold tones don't suit me well and are overpowering for daily wear. Depending on your complexion needs, it's best to try the product first before purchasing (which I understand is hard given most Sephora stores don't carry the higher end luxury brands with testers), but if you can, you can try the three possibilities and then compare. The Météorites Line is based on attaining a light, finished iridescent, pearlescent look. The product isn't meant to be applied as thickly as a regular powder, either. It should be a light sweep or dusting, otherwise it won't look as it is should. If you're looking for strong golden tones or bronzed tones in your highlighter/illuminator powder, you'll have to look at other products.

Pretty to look at

I admit it. I bought this because of all the hype behind it. I don't like it. It's too shimmery to use all over the face and not pigmented enough to use as highlighter. If you really want you can pack it on cheekbones for subtle highlight but there are so many better highlighters for less money. And it's super dusty. I kept it because I love the tin that it came in. I wouldn't recommend or repurchase.
