Stila Illuminating Finishing Powder 'pro' review yo



BOOOOOO!!!



Now that I've got your attention, allow me to introduce you to some products.. /



Stila Illuminating Powder in Rose Gold.
And I know this is a flaw with many other powder products out there as well (Coastal Scents for example), but when I flipped it over, the product fell out.



No biggie, however I was scared of it cracking on me so I popped it back into the compact. I just wish it came fixed in a metal pan or something.
All that aside, Stila gives you an enormous amount of product for your money.. you wouldn't need to repurchase for a long time (: I suppose if this does break up on you, you could always crush it and use as a loose powder.



The product is a fine, shimmering powder that goes to give the face a subtle glow. The sparkles aren't overwhelming- it contains just the right about of glimmer to give me an overall radiant look. The powder deposits a very light, natural colour on the face, giving you an healthy glowing complexion.

I used Illuminating Powder on my cheeks but I imagine it can be used all over the face as a highlighter, eyeshadow or even built up as a bronzer. I love that it has gold undertones which makes it great for my Asian yellow toned skin >=o .

A pretty good product, I like this Finishing Powder ^~^ I had no problem getting the shimmer powder onto my brush (uber soft Ecotools brush) like many others had.

This tiny little Model co compact case I got was adorable! I'm not quite sure that the powder inside was for- a highlighter or eyeshadow. I felt as though it could double for both.
A pigmented and shimmery off white, which can be applied over the lids or top of the cheekbones. How versatile~ this is a great little item.
