Bourjois Delice De Poudre Bronzer Bronzing Powder 52 Taned and Dark Complexions, 16g

Product Information

I love everything about this bronzer! The smell, the color, and the fact that it doesn't have shimmer in it. It is also cheap, compared to a lot of other bronzers. Today I’ll be reviewing Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder. I can’t pronounce it either, so we’re going to call it the Bourjois chocolate bronzer. You may take this bronzer's colour as high as faking a tan, but it still would not give you a horrid orange or muddy look. The powder I own in the image is probably older than your mum, which is probably a sign that I should throw it away and get a new one. It has a delicious, rather heavenly chocolate scent, is even shaped like a chocolate bar, and one can barely resist to break a chunk off to eat.

I generally like matte bronzers for contouring, but I found the colour in this too warm toned for my skin to use as a contour. However as a bronzer it gives a really natural golden tone to the skin. It lasts a really long time and is amazing to warm up the face. It’s not good if you want something to contour with, but it’s a good affordable bronzer to add warmth and an amazing smell. Have you ever heard or readabout a product being possiblydiscontinued and then gone into a complete frenzy trying to find it? The powder comes in two shades, Peaux Claires/Medians no 51 and Peaux mates/hâlées no 52, which is the one I have here.After months of speculation - and of course the near-empty counters that have not escaped notice - it has been confirmed that Bourjois are pulling out of the UK. The news actually broke a few weeks ago but given all that is currently unfolding, I can't say it fully resonated until I had a little spare time to finally de-clutter my beauty stash. It sculpts the face pretty nicely, but not as amazingly as contour palettes I have previously owned. If you’re new to contour or things in that area, I suggest this affordable bronzer is the perfect product for you. It’s amazing introduction to the world of contour and is really handy when travelling or when you need something to add definition. A really nice product - the bronzer isn't orange on my pale skin and is perfect for both bronzing (obviously) and contouring, which is what I use it for. I am actually looking for a contour shade like Hoola, a shade thats not so warm toned. At the moment i am just using a dark pressed powder foundation. I might have to get Hoola if I dont find the right one.

I've tried this bronzer... I've actually bought a few months ago. Oh, and I'm from Slovenia, Central Europe. :) It is the powder that brings a subtle hint of sunshine to your face, not a dark murky look, rather a gorgeous sun-kissed glow. I got the original that did not come with a highlighter, shade 52. With the hype surrounding this, I don't know how i can't flop so badly with me. Maybe i got a bad one?Michelle - most people look good with a hint of colour, super pale is no longer the colour for me :) Every woman wants to meet the standards of beauty throughout her life. The search for effective ways to deal with unwanted body hair return...
