I love these, they add such a nice natural glow to your skin, it's perfect for winter when my skin looks dull!

I have a huge collection of these and now this is my fave, it was given to me a a birthday present recently. The balls are twice as big as the normal size, maybe like a giant gumdrop and this powder actually has more color than the previous version without being too sparkly. You only need a small amount and you must blend in while using a dense powder brush to pick up the color better. You get mauve, silver, lilac pink, pale gold pearls. The smell is my fave Guerlain violet powdery fresh scent. While it adds color it's not a blush, helps set make-up and has a sheer finish. I don't experience any oiliness with these powders and my skin us normal/combin

I'm going to admit, I purchase this mostly for the smell and stunningly gorgeous looking container (so beautiful I use the empty containers to store knickknacks!).

Though, there is just something so luxurious about applying this product and leaving it on your counter for others to see.
