Comments: I have been keeping an eye on this product for a while. I love any makeup that provides a radiant skin. I have been hesitated to buy it as I still have a stash of powder makeup such as Dior & Laura Mericer mineral powder, MAC illustrating powder as well. The price is also expensive.  But when I saw this limited edition of Guerlain that comes with a brush.  I just have to get it.  I got it from Cosme-de mo for $68 US. The colour is01 Teint Rose.  I know that this package comes with two miniature sizes (2 x 0.28 oz)...but I just didn't expect this small when I received the package.  The outer box is 12.5 cm x 5 cm. 

 The container is only 5 cm in diameter.
 And when I open the container, there is only 1 layer of powder balls. 
The scent is lovely.  I really like the light flowery scent.  It does give a even and glow smooth look without any glitter. I have combination-normal skin, and the oil control of this powder is very good.  My face remains fresh by the end of the day. The application is quite easy, I just need to swirl around the powder balls, and then swirl on my face in circular movement.  The brush  picks up the powder quite well.  This small size can easily to fit into my makeup bag that I can carry around for touch up.  I probably will leave this mini Kabuki brush at home as the brush doesn't have a cover.  I have a bobbi brown retracting brush with a cover in my on-the-go makeup bag.  Hopefully the bobbi brown brush will work fine with this powder.
