MÉTÉORITES Illuminating Pearls (also known as Météorites Pearls of Powder or Light-Revealing Pearls)

Brand:

Guerlain (Paris)

What is it?

It is Guerlain’s iconic setting and illuminating powder in the form of multi-colored pearls. Launched in 1987, it is one of the most famous and luxurious makeup products from the brand. It combines several functions in one beautiful reusable compact.

Main Benefits:

• Sets and fixes makeup

• Color-corrects the complexion subtly

• Mattifies shine for up to 8 hours

• Illuminates the skin with a natural, multidimensional glow

• Softens skin texture and improves the wear of foundation

• Provides a radiant, healthy-looking finish that lasts up to 12 hours

The result is elegant and subtle — not heavy glitter, but a “glow from within” effect that makes the skin look brighter, smoother, and more even.

Formula:

• Ultra-fine and lightweight texture

• 95% ingredients of natural origin

• Contains a complex of mother-of-pearls:
  • Round colored pearls → reflect light in all directions for multidimensional radiance

  • Flat silvery/white pearls → deliver long-lasting luminosity

• Delicate floral fragrance (with violet notes)

How it works:

Each color of pearl has a specific purpose, but when blended together with the brush or puff, they create a perfect customized effect:

• Green pearls → help correct redness

• Pink/purple pearls → add healthy glow and brighten dull skin

• White/beige pearls → illuminate and give purity to the complexion

Available Shades (main ones):

• 01 Pearly White / Blanc de Perle → for very fair to fair skin (pure illumination)

• 02 Cool / Rosé → for fair to light skin (unifies and gives a rosy glow)

• 03 Warm / Doré → for medium to warmer skin tones

Packaging & Application:

• Comes in a luxurious round compact with a soft puff included

• Apply at the end of your makeup routine: swirl the puff or brush over the pearls and dust lightly over the face (or targeted areas like cheekbones, forehead, etc.)

• A little goes a long way

It is suitable for all skin types and gives a sophisticated, natural-looking finish — perfect for that “no-makeup but better” effect.
