I’m a huge huge fan of Guerlain Meteorites powders as regular readers will know, and I have a soft spot for the loose perles as well as the Pressed Illuminating Powders (Rose Frais, Mythic and Nacres des Mers) that both impart a beautiful ethereal glow to the skin unlike any other powder I have used.
I believe its been more than a year since Guerlain discontinued the Illuminating Pressed powders (with the bumpy surface) and replaced them with these – the Guerlain Meteorites Compact Illuminating and Mattifying Pressed Powder. Unlike the Pressed Illuminating Powders that come with different colours in the pan, these new compacts all have just 1 shade of powder although it comes in 3 different shades for different effects – 01 Teint Rose, 02 Teint Beige and 03 Teint Dore. Its sort of pre-mixed now where it was separate before.
I don’t know how long I’ve had this compact but its taken me a while to form an opinion on this. Funny eh? I thought I’d love it right off the bat!
