And last product from this collection, which I own is: 

Colour Accents - Face and Blush Powder

It is gorgeous, right?

I love multipurpose products, so this one had to be mine, and since it is a Limited Edition, so what is there to think? I order it from escentual.com, for the price of 24 pounds + shipping.

This product comes in a gold, nicely not high quality package, and it weights 10 grams. Under the cap you can find face powder in a 3 colors with pink stripes of a blush. Maybe you can notice in this picture above a 3D relief. Smell of this product is very nice, an old smell of a rose, a violet and iris. If you know how the Violetta di Parma perfume smells, this powder smells very similar.

Borsalino - Violetta di Parma

I was a bit sceptical about applying this blush on my cheeks, and was very surprised when I actually applied it with a brush. It is possible! :) This blush gives a very nice, natural pinkish color to your cheeks, while the other three colors of a face powder can be used all together or separate for contouring. 

I swiped my brush over the palette and then apply it all over the face, at first my face looked a bit light, but after a few minutes when powder sets on your face and adapt to it, it gives you a nice finish. I was very pleased with effect on my face. 

I used darker parts of this palette for contouring my cheeks, and on the top of that I add a bit of a pink blush. It doesn't clog my pores, and it kept my face mate for about 6 hours. 

I now leave you with pictures and swathces:

second, third and fourth swatch is a face powder from darkest to lighter shade

last swatch is a blush

Conclusion: I really like this product, as you can notice it from the text. The only thing that bothers me a bit is the packaging it would be great if it is a bit harder and better quality.

What do you think about this Clarins product? Have you find something that you like?
