Tine asked me in a comment below what I thought about Meteorites. Well the short answer is that I love them. But do you need it? Well, it depends.
I have Guerlain Les Meteorites Powder – 01 Mythic
What I do is swirl a fluffy powder brush over the balls and then brush over my face after foundation/loose powder. It doesn’t add any discernible colour or shimmer on the skin. However, when the light hits your skin, i find that it adds a glow that tells people you had a full 8 hours of sleep, even if you’ve been up half the night!
As I said, it depends on whether you need it as this is rather pricey at something like RM150 RM168 per tub. It will last you forever though. There is a fragrance that doesn’t bother me, but might bother some people, so if you have a counter near you, go take a sniff and test it out first to see if you like it. Its too expensive a product to buy and then regret later.
Pros: Adds a glow
Cons: Expensive, fragranced

Thanks for the review! 😀
I’ve always been tempted to get this, ‘cos it looks so pretty. Unfortunately, I had no idea what it does nor what you’re supposed to do with it! Well, I do now 😉
Tine: My pleasure! Its not something that’s a must have IMO but if you have it, its nice. If you don’t have it, its not essential.
Ahh…so that’s what they are for. They’ve always looked attractive but never knew what good they would do for me.
Are you sure its only RM150 per tub? it retails for nzd250 (about rm600) per tub in NewZealand. >.
Kittycat: They are cute aren’t they? 🙂
Misspear: Actually they are RM168. I’m not sure if the price has gone up but its definitely not RM600! That’s the price of a La Mer cream 🙂 I was told that cosmetics in NZ and Australia are more expensive but I never knew it was this much more.
Can it be used as a loose powder right after the foundation?
d3222e: Yes it can but I think it works better as a highlighter as it does nothing for coverage
Ah, i got this from my mom.She don’t use it anymore until today she took it back. Somehow this Guerlain Meterorites gave me a no effect look because i thought it was loose powder or something. I will try it next time RIGHT after i apply loose powder on :).
@fionx : There is no “effect” in the true sense of the word but it gives a lovely glow.
thanks for showing me this link. now, if anyone ever ask me again, i can ans them like pro! hehehe
