Love: Chanel Mat Lumier foundation

In love with this foundation I am obsessed with it. I actually carry a small tester jar filled with the foundation because I have to have to travel.

It has a mat finish but it goes on semi-matte at first and then blends down to a matte finish. I prefer heavier coverage so I prefer to apply a lot more than average to my face but it was really watery when I first bought it but after giving it a good shake it thickened up.

Definitely expensive (57$) and not for a penny pincher ask your local Chanel counter for a sample and it's around 4-7 day sample.

I saw a lot of reviews for the vita lumier which is (IMO) too sheer and shiny for my tastes. But Chanel released the Lumier Perfection and that is superb foundation. I may have been absent when it was actually released but my L&T had it out as new (perfection lumier).

Estee Lauder Gilded Rose Set

Bought these a while ago but I am just posting these as a review. These are a set of eyeshadows and marbleized shimmer powder. The eyeshadows come gilded but the gold is not incorporated into the shadows. These are satin colors one light baby pink, a magenta pink, a peachy tan pink, and the fourth is a tawny rose color. Super close to matte powders and a little disappointing because the "rose gold" overlay comes right off with one swipe. The colors are very nice though even if the overlay goes away. The marble shimmer powder feels good on my skin but as I have some tan left on my skin the rose blends a little bit too much. So a fair skin or yellowed skin will really benefit from the color in the marble if you want to use it as a blush. Otherwise the shimmer looks good as a general highlight. I did not buy both at the same time I got them from my local CCO for around 16.00 a piece. Compared to retail Estee Lauder prices this is very cheap. I wished there was a rose gold match...

I was wondering if it wa sheer because it was the first time I used it or if it will stay sheer? The counter attendant used the same foundation (I think) and it was atleast medium but I'll keep using it so that I can find out.
