Hello Summer !
It’s getting HOT in
here, isn’t it ?! So it’s the right time for our skin to be glow as the Sun
glow these day. Today I will present you, The Lumière d’Été Illuminating Powder from the Chanel summer 2015
Collection Mediterranée.
According to Chanel’s
description, this powder is supposed to be a highlighter, but I think people
with a lighter skin like mine will be able to use the Lumière d’Été as a
bronzer too.
The
powder contains 8g of product. The
Lumière d’Été illuminating powder comes in a little box with a similar
Chanel flower imprint that you could always find on it’s powder. The product itself comes in a black velvet pouch that also contains a
little brush which are really soft and it feels nice on my skin.
The Lumière d’Été illuminating powder has the pattern of
the camellia flower, which is so elegant and I really loves it !
A Chanel describes the product as:
Presented in the iconic black case with its applicator brush, this
illuminating powder takes the shape of a camellia in a luxuriant version. Fully
blossomed and steeped in summer light, the emblematic flower of CHANEL makes
the cheekbones and décolleté sparkle in every sunbeam. It enhances a naturally
golden complexion and highlights the most beautiful décolletés with a satiny
makeup result.
I have the Camélia de plumes highlighter from the winter 2014 collection and the Camélia Rosé blush from the spring 2015 collection so this powder couldn’t be missing in my collection. For me, this is a versatile product. Lighter skin tones can use it as a bronzer and a blush. For darker skin tones this will be a great highlighter.
When The sun was shining on my skin, I
noticed a nice glow on my cheeks. That was definitely the Chanel Lumière
d’Été so it does give your skin a pretty glow, but it’s only noticeable in
direct sunlight. The perfect product for summer I would say.
Let me hear what you think.. See you on my
next post !
