And Pick Up A Les Tendres De Chanel Les Roses Highlighter Blush On The Way"},"content":{"rendered":"

With the festive period* now at full speed ahead almost upon us, it is probably opportune that I (finally) tell you about the Les Tendres de Chanel Les Roses blush<\/strong> which is a travel exclusive item, since some of you might be travelling. I purchased this on board Malaysian Airlines where I saw it labelled as “Flight Exclusive” and I have not even see it at the duty free stores. I’m not sure if other airlines also carry it.<\/p>\n

\"les<\/p>\n

Here it is in all its unsullied glory! The Les Tendres de Chanel Natural Finish Face Highlighter and Blush in Les Roses<\/strong>. As the ridiculously long name implies, this is both a face highlighter and blush. It in fact looks very similar to what Chanel was offering for the Summer collection – Soleil Tan something something… (which I passed on for being too dark). The difference is that instead of a bronzer-blush, this is a highlight-blush.<\/p>\n

The blush colours are the two lower shades – a rose and a browned rose, and the highlighter shades are a light pink and a white. It isn’t shimmery and it is all very sheer. VERY sheer. But glowy.<\/p>\n

It took me a while to break into this compact, but when I did, I couldn’t stop using it. Despite the sheer colours, it gives a lovely glow to the skin that I absolutely loved. The problem however, if I can call it that, is that the highlighter shades tend to apply a little white on the skin. So if you are of a darker disposition, I don’t think you’d like this very much.<\/p>\n

\"chanel<\/p>\n

I bring you no swatches because the first two colours barely show up when I try to pick it up. It only really shows up when you run your brush over it. In fact, the white haired brush included in the palette does a decent enough job. It does feel a little scratchy on the skin, but it works well enough so you don’t have to carry a separate blush brush if you prefer not to.<\/p>\n

On my skin, this is what it looks like.<\/p>\n

\"chanel<\/p>\n

I told you it is sheer no? If you perhaps tilt you head this way and look out from a corner of your eye you might see a pink flush on my cheeks. That isn’t me with a touch of sunburn. That’s the Les Roses blush. The colour of the blush is as you see in the first two pictures not this dulled version in this composite picture. I suck at editing light \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

How I like to apply is to brush over the bottom two rose shades and apply to the apples of my cheeks. Then, I dab on the highlight colours on the high point of my cheekbones, closer to my eye socket. I also sometimes use the highlighter shade to run it down the middle of my nose.<\/p>\n

I do like this palette and I’m very pleased with my purchase so I regret it not one bit \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\n

In a nutshell<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lovely sheer rose tinted blush and highlighter powder in one compact. It applies very sheer but can be layered to build up colour. The white highlighter shades may be a little white on those who are darker but it is a very subtle highlight that isn’t glittery and gives a soft glow to the skin. Unfortunately this is a Flight Exclusive and only available on board certain airlines including Malaysia Airlines.<\/p>\n

Pros:<\/strong> Sheer soft colours, Highlighter adds a soft glow to the skin, Compact case makes it easy to travel with, Brush included is a little scratchy but serviceable<\/p>\n

Cons:<\/strong> Some might find it too sheer, Only available on board certain airlines<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A reader Mon asked me in the comments of the Diorblush Pink in Love review<\/a> if I prefer Pink in Love or this Les Roses and how they compared, or if they were totally different. My answer was that they are actually very different.<\/p>\n

\"chanel<\/p>\n

Pink in Love is much more pigmented. Les Roses is much sheerer. If I wanted something more pink that needs less work to show up, I’d go with the Diorblush Pink in Love. If I wanted something a little more subtle with brightening highlight qualities, I’d go with Les Roses. I do however, find that the Dior blush applies better in terms of texture. Its silkier somehow.<\/p>\n

So, its hard to compare but I will prefer Pink in Love over Les Roses if I did not already have this. Since I do, its pretty much a moot point \ud83d\ude1b I can’t choose between my babies \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

* Festive period = Eid-ul Fitr or Aidil Fitri or Hari Raya Aidil Fitri where most of us here in Malaysia are off for the better part of the coming week, possibly including MWS – but we’ll see \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/p>\n
