Recently I was browsing through an online makeup site and came across the NYC Chroma Face Glow and they immediately reminded me of the MAC Mineralize SkinFinish. They were available in two lovely shades; Sunstone and Moonstone, and obviously I had to get my hands on both of them. Sunstone is the corally/warmer shade and Moonstone is a pinkier/rosy shade.

| The products come in very simple but sturdy packaging which allows you to see the product without having to open the case which can sometimes be a little bothersome. From Left to Right: Sunstone and Moonstone |
 |
| The products have veins in them that provide great effect in the Summer. They are both not overly pigmented and very shimmery. These products work great for a very sheer blush or as a highlight shade! I find these perfect to apply on tan skin for that sunkissed look |

| NYC Chroma Face Glow in Sunstone A gorgeous corally shade with veining of brown and mint, gives a glorious dewy finish to a tanned face together with a bronzed or warm eye look |
 |
| You get 0.36oz/10.2g of product I got mine from The Cosmetic House for 2.25 pounds I love how the back of the packaging is so fun and bright! |
 |
| NYC Chroma Face Glow in Moonstone A delicious pinky/rosy shade with plum and gold veining Gives a nice light shimmery sheen that goes well with light shades on the eyes |

| From Left to Right: Moonstone and Sunstone I find that once applied to skin they may look very similar, however it also depends on how I use them. If I use the product just as a highlight shade then the difference is not very noticeable, but if I just use bronzer on the face and a touch of the NYC Chroma Face Glow on the cheeks the product color shows up more |
I love how this product although it gives a gorgeous sheen, doesn't have big glitter chunks that end up all over the skin. The product is not too powdery either so that it doesn't end up all over the face and makes you look like a disco ball. The sheen as you may notice is really amazing and on the face the effect looks even better. If I were to recommend this product I would say that you can get away with just getting one shade, however I really love this product and for the price I am really glad to have gotten them both. You really end up using a small amount of product so I am sure these will last a long time!
Have you tried the NYC Chroma Face Glow? How do you think it compares to the MAC MSFs?
