Advantages: natural look

Disadvantages: important to find the right shade

I wouldn't be a regular user of bronzer, however sometimes it's nice to add that extra bit of colour so off I went to look for a product that would give me that colour without looking like an oompa loompa.
In researching bronzers, one name kept coming up, Guerlain terracotta bronzing powder, voted Instyle's bronzer of the year, the last 6 years running. With so many positive reviews I thought I would give it a try and I wasn't disappointed.
The bronzer gives your skin that nice sunkissed look, however a word of warning, it can take a while to find the right shade for your skintone. It is also important not to be too heavy handed with this bronzer as it can tend to look orange if you're not careful.
The bronzer goes on smoothly and blends well; it doesn't feel heavy or clumpy on your skin. There is also no glitter, but just a faint sheen which means that it has a more natural look than other bronzers.
There are moisturising ingredients in the bronzer and it doesn't dry out your skin.
The smell is not overly strong and after you've been wearing it for a while you don't really notice it.
All Guerlain products tend to be in the higher price range however at around £30, its not overly expensive and if you aren't wearing it all the time, it lasts a long time.

Summary: gives a great sunkissed look
