Guerlain - Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder
N°3 Brunette

My favorite brand for bronzing powders is Guerlain. I just finished the classic Terracotta bronzing powder in n°2 and I was very satisfied, so this time I went for their new product a so-called light version, relased last year. To me, Guerlain is the best brand specialised in bronzing powders which I highly recommend.

 

Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder exists in 4 shades: two for blonde n°2 and n°4 (more into bronzed pink tones) and two for brunette n°3 and n°5 (light and dark coral tones). It is ideal for every skin type as each powder shade has its own combination of colors that will match every skin complexion. The packaging is lovely. There is a mirror included, but no brush.

I purchased n°3 Brunette which contains a mosaic of 5 shades from peach beige through apricot coral to bronze brown. All combined, they give a natural "just got back from vacation" look and highlighted cheeks.  It includes a complexion highlighter that gives a sheer and luminous makeup finish, but you barely notice the shimmer, it just makes your skin glow naturally.

n°3 Brunette is the lighter version of the 2 shades for Brunette and it matches nicely my skin tone which is a neutral warm.

 

                           

 

You can use it either as a bronzer or a blush. I use it mostly as a blush all over the year when my make up goes with more coral toned cheeks. When I am tanned, I use it also as a bronzing powder all over my face. It illuminates the sun kissed skin and gives a lovely natural look. It doesn't give an orange look like many other bronzers, so go for it. The chosen combination of colors is just perfect for your face to glow in a natural way.
