I think Chantecaille's packaging strategy is to make everything as small as possible. Initially, when I bought this blush, I was having major pangs of guilt because I spent so much money on a blush that was the size of most eye shadow compacts. However, it's a really pretty warmish pinky color with a subtle amount of shimmer to it that gives a natural glow. It's pretty sheer, so I usually have to put on a few layers for it to give me that glow. However, I use it almost everyday, and considering how tiny the compact is, it's lasting incredibly well. I almost gave it a 4 for being so tiny, but considering that it's lasted so long, I'll give it a 5.
