Chanel has released a new product this month, Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Colour. Retailing for $57.50, this powder is Chanel’s answer to an illuminating powder, similar to NARS Light Reflecting Powder or Hourglass Ambient Light Powder. The powder comes in a gorgeous black case with a beige top and Chanel logo imprinted on it. The compact is quite large and it's equipped with a full-size mirror. This powder comes in seven shades ranging from No.10 to No.70 with undertones that are designed to complement several different skin tones. I believe the intentional use of this product is to choose a shade or two darker than your skin tone so that the powder will give a very natural, fairly neutral, even tan; as if it were your own skin. It is suppose top look as if you have a gradual, healthy tan. Since I ordered mine online I decided to go with No. 20 which actually matches my skin tone quite well; so I think if I got shade No.30 it would give me this natural tan look. I prefer to apply this as a setting powder since it is sheer and also use it as a touch up powder throughout the day. It is not cakey whatsoever and adds a subtle radiance that gives a lovely glow to the skin. The powder is creamy, soft, super finely milled and subtly fragranced (I can’t quite pin point the smell, definitely floral). Overall a stand out product and I will be using all the time!
