Hi beauties,

Today I’m reviewing the super luxury Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Powder for you. I’ve always wanted an iconic Chanel compact as they are just so fab. This is $65CAN however, so frugal me ended up saving my Shoppers Drugmart points and getting this for free.

THE DEETS:

This powder is formulated with white rose and cotton flower and has an spf of 15. They claim this gives the face a naturally radiant appearance, with a simplistic approach. It comes with a half-moon brush which is extremely soft, but I prefer to use it with a large powder brush. I got the shade No. 25 and there are six shades to choose from. This is not meant to be a powder foundation, but rather a finishing powder.

THE PROS:

-Very natural looking, no cakiness

-Smells like roses

-Gives the skin a flawless finish

THE CONS:

-Very expensive

-Chanel is not cruelty free

THE VERDICT:

5/5

Ugh! I wish I could rate this lower since this product is so pricey and not cruelty free. It is absolutely beautiful on the skin. I have used this to set my makeup and also to brighten up a too-light shade of foundation and it always just gives the prettiest, smoothest finish without cakiness. This is also beautiful over a BB-cream.

The brush is kind of useless since it’s so small, but it’s so soft that I just keep it anyway. It could work as a blush brush. Overall, if you want an iconic compact on your vanity and a product that works, this is it.
