Imagine the sun-kissed look of Brigitte Bardot in St. Tropez. Her beguiling sex kitten ardor made the chic destination into THE destination. Or perhaps the delicate glow of Grace Kelly which seems to share the luster of precious pearls and brilliant diamonds. Lucky for us who live round the clock in the tropics, we can squeeze out that glow on command.
Nothing does that better than Chanel’s innovative Ruban Perle. I hate nothing more than so-called shimmers that have flecks of glitter making me look like a ten-dollar hooker. True to the house’s philosophy of faultless sophistication, Ruban Perle gives a glow more akin to falling in love rather than strobe light.
This new Star Product by Chanel is inspired by the silk ribbons that Coco herself adored. Ruban Perle comes in two shades: "Moonlight" which is a rosy white that gives skin an opaline finish. Sunlight, a golden apricot glaze that enhances tans, gives an earthy, sun-kissed look.
The Soft Focus spherical powders smooth the skin and blur imperfections.
Sort of like a photoshop cosmetic that erases your imperfections. The double reflection micro mica titanium flakes diffuse the light intensely for that glow without the aging or crepey pearl effect.
The trick is to apply it all over the face with your fingertips. The warmth of your fingers will allow the special formula to glide seamlessly onto your skin. Apply on bare skin or over foundation to enhance the curves of your face and illuminate your skin tone.
For a more dramatic look, use the flocked applicator and apply to tops of cheeks, brow bones and center of lips.
Now you can be the star that you are.
