Heavy and cakey powders are history. Now
it’s all about giving healthy and natural finish to your complexion. At first I
wasn’t too sure how I like this ‘makeover’ - I just love my full coverage too
much. However, I am happy to report that a few months down the line and a new gorgeous
Chanel product added to my stash, I was sold. Meet the crème de la crème of
face powders – the ever so gorgeous Chanel
Les Beiges (here). Oh dear,
where do I even begin – this beauty is absolutely amazing and such a little
miracle worker. It adds very sheer, yet luminous healthy glow to the skin and
sets your makeup in place. Forget about heavy finish and the old ‘powdery face’
look – Les Beiges looks like second layer of perfect skin, which is so natural
and light that you need a magnifying glass to even tell that you are wearing
powder. At the same time it somehow manages to mattify the skin and make it
look airbrushed, whilst still keeping everything radiant. It’s magic, I tell you!
Les Beiges is über finely milled and as
I said, it is almost translucent so if you’re looking for something to add
coverage, I’d suggest you look elsewhere. If you fancy something undetectable
and light that just blurs the skin and keeps the oils at bay for hours and
hours though – this Chanel baby is your best bet. The incredible soft and
smooth texture of the powder makes it apply like charm and it blends so
seamlessly into the skin. Also, no dry patches accentuated, no fine lines and
pores nowhere to be seen. It’s love. I don’t know whether it’s because of the
sheer coverage or what but the shade B20 is the perfect match for my skin and I
couldn’t be happier. Just a little swirl of the brush into the gorgeously
scented (but not overpowering) pan and I am left with beautiful glowy skin that
screams healthy and doesn’t look overdone. Oh, and did I mention that the powder has SPF 15? Fantastic! I know that this gem is on the pricy
side and may break the bank but for the incredible results if gives I am
willing to pay more. If you are on a budget though but fancy getting your mitts on something similar to Les Beiges, I highly suggest you try the Bourjois Healthy Balance Powder (here). It is as close to a dupe as I could find and is just a
fraction of the price. Score!
Have you tried Chanel Les
Beiges before? Which is your favorite luxury powder?
I've never tried anything from the Les Beiges range because it's so expensive but the Bourjois one could be more in my price range!
