Although the Météorites vary amongst themselves with the specific colors in the canister or compact, having been formulated to create subtle corrective changes, I personally see the most noticeable effects in terms of what they're designed to do when I apply them over a setting powder or directly over a powder foundation. The matteness immediately softens & becomes luminous but not shiny. I experimented with them a bit, putting them directly over foundation without a setting powder and within a couple of hours I was pretty shiny, probably because they are NOT a setting powder. I would have to say that the NARS Light Reflecting loose powder, used in the same way as the Météorites was a bit more dramatic----in a good way. Although the NARS Light Reflecting powder is a "setting" powder, I prefer to use my regular setting powder and lightly dust the NLRLP over my face just as I would any other beauty/finishing powder. I also use the Hourglass 'Radiant Light' Ambient Lighting powder which also gives the same appearance of smoothness, radiance & luminosity. My personal experience is that the effects of all of these products are very similar.

Thank you Med! Your experience with the Meteorites mirror my own! Over a setting powder - good! Over a liquid foundation - greaseball!

Of course inquiering minds want to know what setting powder you're using.

And you just de-enabled (un-enabled?) me. I've got the ballz and a fresh tub of the Nars powder, so I guess I'm good on the finishing powder front!

I very rarely use them over setting powder. Most of the time directly over liquid foundation but my skin is normal/dry and I do not ever have any oil on my face

Because of the blizzard the shipment to Barneys was delayed. They should receive it tomorrow and hopefully ship out by Monday. I can't wait to get it. The packaging is so cute!

I only conducted that experiment because you mentioned becoming a grease ball when you used the Météorites. I wanted to see why because that wasn't my
experience. I didn't realize until now that they actually worked well for you at some point. I'm glad you've decided to give them another go!!! I really like the NARS
loose powder. I also have the compact/pressed version and I rarely touch it. I need to fix that!!!

of these palettes.

Glad you like it! I'm trying to convince myself that I really, really don't need anymore eyeshadow palettes, but somehow my brain doesn't want to compute the message!
