I agreed to swap for this powder without knowing what it really was or it's uses. After I finalized the swap, I looked up the reviews and was iffy on if I made a good choice. THIS POWDER ROCKS! ...

I think this product is hit or miss. It's gorgeous in and of itself but can be a pain to apply. I think if used properly it can be a gorgeous powder to highlight and add dimension to your makeup....

I am on the fence with this powder. I like it sometimes, and other days I think I look like I pissed off the glitter fairy. If I use a really light hand and a big brush I get a really great,...

I was browsing the hello kitty beauty powders and was quite disappointed by them, when I see Belightful in a cabinet beside them and fell in love. That was me hooked by one glance, I purchased it...

I bought this from the Fafi for MAC collection, so it has a nifty Fafinette design on the compact. I deducted a point for the fact that it's a sticker. [Gave packaging a 4.] That said, I've had it...

I got this in the Charming Garnet set and I love it. Yes, it does have chunky glitter but it is very easily buffed away. It gives a gorgeous peachy sheen and looks so pretty over peachy, or even...

This imparts a GORGEOUS warm peachy-champagne glow to my cheekbones! However it contains huge chunks of gold glitter, which is a shame, because minus the glitter this is an amazing warm-toned...

I bought this a few years ago for my highschool graduation, and at 17 thought this was the cat's ass. At the time I used it lightly all over my eyes and a touch on the upper corners of my cheek...

This is really pretty in the pan but unfortunately it doesn't agree with me! It's a gorgeous shimmery peachy/champagne shade with pieces of small glitter. On me, it's a frosty champagne color...

Color is a shimmery champagne, can use as highlighter or even as eyeshadow. I apply as a highlighter and sometimes as a subtle eyeshadow. Potential to over apply, so use a light hand and angled...

As it has been said in other reviews, this powder is pretty glittery, which is why I took off 1 lippie. I always blow my brush before applying to get most of the bigger chunks off. It does impart...

Its sooo glittery in the pan, but after you lightly blow off the glitters from your brush, it gives you the most amazing glow! I love it! Also great as a body highlighter!

I got this powder with the Glamor Basics set from the holiday 08 collection. The color looks like a warm bronze in the pan but is more of a pale champagne on skin. It gives the cheeks a nice warm...

I bought 7 of these and sold 2. Currently using one. I went crazy over the fafi line. For some reason the only time I open it up is to use the mirror. I love the compact and the feel of it. I used...
