Yet another bronzer. I know it’s getting predictable already but you can’t blame moi, I am irreverently obsessed with it. Second to matte lipsticks, my bronzer collection is expanding exponentially. Summertime-induced? I don’t think so because sun-kissed complexion is a beauty must-have for me 365d. The latest to join #teambronze is no other than Guerlain Terracota Summer Limited Edition Bronzing Powder. Available in two shells, I picked up Coral 03 Natural Brunettes (the other one being Turquoise 02 Natural Blondes).
Same ‘ol bronzer but protected with silicone case; ergo, the limited aspect is the coral (or turquoise) shell which you can remove whenever, wherever. ‘Kinda like your neutral-loving bestie who decided to wear poppy-bright sundress for summer.
Coral 03 Natural Brunette is predominantly matte with a bit of golden sheen to it. It has the signature tiare scent which I like but maybe quite overwhelming to some who are not into fragranced cosmetics. Guerlain makes phenomenal bronzers overall; the non-powdery vis-a-vis blendable formula is the number one reason why I keep repurchasing.
My Terracota. Mine alone. Territory marked.
For your better appreciation and judgment, here’s a side-by-side swatch comparison with some of my fave bronzers to-date (reviews are linked):
Guerlain Joli Teint Powder Duo Natural Blondes
Tom Ford Bronzing Powder Gold Dust
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer Radiant Light Bronze
Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Killer Cheekbones
Here’s how it looks against my medium skin tone…

Any bronzers you picked up lately?
Let’s shop!
Just for the packaging alone, I want that bronzer. Even though my current one hasn't yet hit pan maybe I can justify this purchase? Great review
Guerlain knows their bronzers! Predictable or not, this is one product that can make transform any skin from sickly to glowing in a snap of a compact, so no wonder we keep buying them [a fellow bronzer-obsessed right here, but you knew that]. You look gorgeous as always <3 <3
Gimme ALL THE BRONZER! I love the way this compact looks!
Beautiful!! I think of you as the Guerlain girl. They should just hire you!
With your skintone, I can see why you love these bronzers. They function as a gorgeous blush, too! You were made for that sun-kissed glow, girl.
The packaging is so pretty, and the Terracotta bronzer looks amazing on you.
Guerlain was the first bronzer I ever bought. They have a well deserved reputation for their bronzers.
Their powders are so pretty
I love the packaging.
Gorgeous! Lovely and useful comparison swatches, my twinsy!
Oh what a pretty bronzer!!
Thats a beautiful bronzer!
You look fabulous darling. The packaging is so fun on this one… it really reminds me of Terracotta and summer for sure.
Such great packaging!
Hey, at least you are consistent with your loves! 🙂 This one looks fantastic.
YES GIRL YES! Gimme gimme!
