Today I’m wearing Poudre Signee de Chanel Illuminating Powder

Remember I told you about Chanel’s Printemps Precieus de Chanel collection? If not, click here.

I’m not normally one for wearing highlighter, or powder for that matter, but this is Chanel, so I decided to give it a try.

The soft gold/pink shade is incredibly flattering. I brushed it along my cheekbones and other high points. The result is subtle; my skin has a healthy glow to it, but you can’t figure out why.

It’s great for the evening, when you can apply an exaggerated amount to give your skin some serious luminosity. I wore it to dinner on the weekend and, and my friend asked if I’d changed my hair. He is a boy, so the fact that he noticed a difference (albeit wrong) was impressive.
