\nI have a weakness. And it’s becoming a problem. Highlighters. I can’t get enough of them!
\nI went shopping the other day, and my friend Maikel showed me one of the most AMAZING highlighters ever.
\nAt first, I thought I was dreaming. So I blinked. Then I blinked again. WAUW, It was real!
\nIn front\u00a0of me was the Guerlain M\u00e9t\u00e9orites ”Cruel Gardenia”<\/strong> Illuminating Powder<\/em><\/span>.<\/p>\n


\nI’ve never really gotten into Guerlain’s Makeup products yet. And seriously, what the hell was I thinking?
\nWhen I saw this powder, It was -no joke- love at first sight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThe packaging is just beautiful. ”Cruel Gardenia”<\/em> comes in a pot with a ”twist cap”.
\nOn the lid is a print of a -I guess- Gardenia inspired design. It’s really pretty and classic.
\nAlso that font ”Guerlain<\/em>” is written in.. Oh My, Beautiful!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nI’m going to give you a moment to let this soak in… THIS IS BEAUTIFUL RIGHT?!
\nNow, Can you imagine what I’ve been trough in that store? LOL – My jaw dropped!<\/p>\n

I would describe ”Cruel Gardenia”<\/em> as a Frosted, Pink-White-Champagne, DROP DEAD GORGEOUS, Highlight.
\nMy friend Maikel told me this is similar to M.A.C’s ”Soft and Gentle’<\/em>‘ Mineralize Skin Finish.
\nI disagree. This is SO much better than that. Also M.A.C Soft and Gentle is way more glittery.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n
\n<\/a>The texture of ”Cruel Gardenia”<\/em> is amazing. It’s soft, buttery and goes on like magic.
\nI haven’t worn it for a full day yet, So I can’t tell you how long it lasts.
\nSide Note:<\/strong> When using the powder, dip your brush in the middle! – It might crumble and die when using the corners.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Doesn’t the effect look amazing? Instant Hollywood Glow in just a few wipes!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nOverall, I think this highlighter is amazing. Perfect texture, Perfect color and the most beautiful design.
\nI’m obsessed! I’m obsessed! I’m obsessed!<\/p>\n

Guerlain M\u00e9t\u00e9orites\u00a0”Cruel Gardenia”<\/strong>\u00a0Illuminating Powder is available at Sephora.
\n-Dutchies: This is available at Sephora and Douglas-
