@Mrs.S, Hello. The "C" application is a traditional technique used to apply highlighters to the face. Most makeup artist I have talked to recommend this method as well as Chanel recommends it on their website.

Basically I start at the mid point of my eyebrow, I apply the highlighter from the mid point down my temple and onto my upper cheek bone area. Creating a "C". I use this method on both sides of my face. I focus the highlighter more on the cheekbone and eyebrow area than on the outer portion of my face.

Hope this helps!

Hi Diane! Would you mind sharing the "C" application technique? I haven't heard of it and would like to know more about it! Thanks! :)

@Cindy, It is true love for me, I love this product! I am actually thinking of getting a backup just in case.

@Wifluvelle, I guess it depends on what you are looking for. MAC is more pigmented but it also is going to give you a different look. I love my soft and gentle, but in my opinion when I wear it, it's obvious I'm wearing a highlighter. The Chanel highlighter gives a natural look that makes it seem like I am not wearing anything that I just naturally have that glow.

Be my guest. It's always a pleasure to enable a fellow highlighter addict--oops--I mean enthusiast :-)

@Eileen, you took the words right out of my mouth. I have been using this product for the last 4 days straight and I am in love! The bits of gold almost disappear once they hit the skin, all that's left if that pretty glow. Thanks for the comment! I want to edit my post and add in your insight if you don't mind. Let me know!

I had not originally planned on getting this, but when I went to pick up my Le Blanc order at Nordstrom's pre-sale, one look was all it took to have me swiping this beauty across my pronounced cheekbones. In the words of the SA and the other women standing around, "Wow!" It goes on as an exquisite wash of white gold and glows like light being reflected off the finest white pearls. For those of you who might be worried about bits of gold, don't be. This is Chanel; not MAC! This is elegance; not disco! I'm in my mid-sixties and pulled it off with class and aplomb. If you have a Nordstrom's card, go and check it out while it is still available. It won't be around for long especially seeing as how beautiful it is when used with the JC Rose Tourbillon.

Beautiful pictures, Diane.

@Stacy, Sorry I am replying so late. I'm glad you found it. Just in case anyone else is reading this and has the same question.

I find the Pearl Glow Powder at Nordstroms, it was only available to Nordstrom Credit Card Holders, if you are not a Nordstroms card holder you must wait until the pre-sale is over which is July 15th.
