I love Chanel blushes. Superb quality and color selection. And lets be honest just looking at the C logo makes me happy :D
So I finally laid my hands on these beautiful beauty Chanel powder blushes courtesy to my dad's frequent visits abroad :P I fell in love with Chanel Powder Blush No. 56 Tea Rose on First sight. It's a pretty pink with a slight tint of peachiness and with very subtle flecks of shimmer, it smells GORGEOUS.. Simply GORGEOUS.. Can I wear it as perfume.??? Silly me. It comes with a tiny soft brush , which I must say is too small for my big face. So I wod rather use it as an eyeshadow brush but as a blush brush !!??? Meh
While I like this blush a lot, I don't think I'd be buying this blush again as it takes 3-4 swipes for it to show on my NC25-30 skin. Don't get me wrong, I love it but it is way too sheer for medium dark skin tones like me, i use it as a highlighter sometimes.t is great as a highlighter because of the fine glimmery sheen. It is not very pigmented so I had to sweep quite a few times in order to get a decent coverage as you can see my swatch below, i achieved the color after good 5-7 good sweeps
Website says "The touch of colour and radiance Offers effects from very natural to very sophisticated. Used as a simple touch of colour, it gives your complexion a healthy glow. As a professional tool, it shapes and models your face (cheekbones, browbones, forehead, chin, along the nose).
Manufactured by a process exclusive to CHANEL, the compact and silky texture of JOUES CONTRASTE gives easy application and subtle blending. The brush is made of natural hair. Contents : 4 g. Highlighting your cheekbones enhances the youthful appearance of your face. For the eye zone, choose a satiny tone to soften and rejuvenate this area."

My dad brought if from singapore's airport. I have read so much about Naunce Watson. Infact that's where he bought the Chanel lip gloss too. So if you are planning to visit singapore , do visit the store/shop or counter. Sorry i have never been to singapore so i dont know what Naunce Watson is :)
Do you own any chanel products ? Have you ever been to singapore. I know i would love to go there
