I fully agree with Colormeloud, the Crazy Météorites are not cheap at all, they are simply gorgeous ! ( and only 55 € here so far I know ). It was released for Christmas but maybe you will be able to find it ( ? ), the other one is a luxury pressed powder, it is very pretty but pricey too...

Hello! This is my first time posting but all you ladies are so sweet and lovely! You all seem to be the experts to go to regarding the Guerlain pressed meteorites and I'm currently interested in purchasing my first one! I'm debating about going with the Wulong on ebay or finding a vintage gold with tortoise shell compact and filling it with Mythic. Could I ask you all a few questions? Which has more heft: the black and Pearl compact or the Gold and Tortoise shell compact? Do they both feel equally high-quality? I know I shouldn't base my decision on the compact, but they are just so beautiful and I'm having trouble deciding between the two. I've heard that the difference between the Mythic and the Wulong meteorites are negligible, so I figured I could go with either. I'm an NC30 with strong golden undertones...do you think both would work on me? Thank you guys for any help and guidance!!

and congrats on your first post. I wish I could help but I've just ordered my first Météorites so I 'm hoping to have a good experience with them. I'm sure some of the other Guerlain enthusiasts here will soon chime in with some insights. Again, WELCOME!!!

Hi Monsy. It gets the job done but I wouldn't call it spectacular. You probably already have a brush that
would work just as well, if not better. I got it because I thought it was cute but frankly I prefer using my
Chanel Pinceau Poudre Biseauté Angled Powder Brush #2. Because it's angled, for me It just works better
around the hairline yet it's dense enough for picking up and distributing bronzer.

Thank you! You're so sweet!

I tried out my sample of the Joli Teint foundation yesterday (Natural). I like the finish, it's a very flattering shade and it evens me out; but I looked tanned! I don't know how I'd wear this without taking it all the way down my neck. This obviously isn't my shade (although perhaps it would be wearable in deep summer when if I tan a bit despite sunscreen.

I'm not even going to TRY Clair/Light because no good can possible come of that. I don't need another foundation. I do love the finish of Lingerie de Peau, but 02 - Beige Clair is too pink on me and 03 - Natural is too dark so I've never bought it.

I was disappointed but thought of it the way I've always thought of MAC collection brushes---cute, colorful & good to throw
in a MU bag for on-the-go touchups.

I understand! It's such a fabulous blusher. It goes shimmery warm peach on me (when all mixed together)... just gorgeous.

 

[Monsy]

Worth every penny IMHO Monsy.

Sold

i received my sun celebration bronzer today. i had a few bronzer samples to compare it too.

For the record, i'm NC15: On Top Across is: Guerlain Sun Celebration Bronzer (3x built up as it wouldn't photograph with one swipe) L to R:: NYC Sunny, Tarte's Milk Chocolate, Tarte's Park Avenue Princess, Nars Laguna, MAC Sun Dipped Without flash:

This bronzer is very light, it's closest and almost identical to Tarte's Park Avenue Princess matte bronzer just a little lighter. I'ts completely matte and I LOVEEEEEEEEEE ITTTTTTTTT!!!
