Guerlain Terracotta spray
-06.02.13
Quick Take: gradual, long lasting, shimmering, healthy glow
I am in love with this product and will make certain I am never without.! I can't count how many compliments I have received but most fall into the "rested and healthy" category. I never received these type of compliments! A little goes a long way. To the reviews saying they turned orange makes me think they used this with a continuous spray. Three small puffs of this air brushed bronzer is all that is needed.

My skin looks PHOTO-SHOPPED!!!
-04.27.13
Quick Take: amazing
This is seriously become something I never EVER want to run out of. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, it barely lasts 70 days BUT if you want the appearance of flawless, dewey skin (and I should know, I have crepey DRY skin!!) then this is your one and only product if necessary. My sis-in-law and bff both went out and got a facials after they saw my skin!! What a testament! Funny thing is, they ask me EVERY time what I'm doing differently and every time I tell them about the Guerlain spray and they balk that it's too expensive (A FACIAL is more expensive!!). The ONLY other product I would recommend is Murad"s Pigment Brightening Serum. It really sets the stage for my aging skin to looks flawless. I would also recommend NOT OVER-SPRAYING! This is not meant for a constant stream of product--then you will look way over-bronzed, if not orange. I also would only recommend it for the face and neck/chest as it is soo expensive. I couldn't imagine spending this kind of money for my arms or legs to look sun-kissed/flawless. I literally just do a "POOF POOF POOF" DONE! Sometimes extra for my neck and chest, depending on the outfit or event. It is SO WORTH having for ANY special outtings! Unfortunately it does wash off in the shower - but I can still brush my teeth or quickly splash water on my face and it stays on! But by the end of the day I would spray again if I was going out that night. It really takes years off my skin/age-- And it gives an air-brushed look...just absolutely amazing

Quick Take: amazing
Okay for started whoever said it turns you orange is obviously not putting it on right. I have become very close with the guerlain team in epcot and what they have me do is use a guerlain foundation and then this spray then wait for it to dry and put a bronzing powder over it. Not sure how many of you know but Guerlain was the founders of sunless tanning so their products are obviously not going to turn you orange. This is a high end product.

This is the only bronzer that really makes you look bronzed, without looking orange or without lines. Love it¡¡ Have been using for more than a year, and I dont think I am going to change it

Nice, but too expensive
-02.11.13
Quick Take: shimmering, gradual
I tried this product on the advice of a Sephora associate. She sprayed it on me in the store and I was sold. Like another poster said, I was not sure that as a minority woman, I needed a bronzer that would make me look tanned. But it made my skin look dewy and it glowed. However, when I got home and tried to duplicate her application, I ended up spraying too much product right in the middle of my face. I used a brush to distribute the product and that is how I have been applying it. I love the way it makes my skin look but I gave it 4 stars for the expensive price and the very small can.

AMAZING
-01.26.13
I was VERY hesitant to buy this for not only the cost but because I am black and i felt like i did not need a "tan" but when a Sephora sales associate sprayed this on me I felt amazing. Super lightweight, creates a flawless finish, gives a great glow...awww i love this so much! Going to buy another container tomorrow for my mom!

my experience with Guerlain Terracotta Spray 10
-01.26.13
Quick Take: orange, muddy
I really thought I had researched these bronzers pretty well and I thought I would be really happy with this one. Boy was I wrong! I am not a pale person. I am fair to medium and I ordered the light to medium. It went on like mud and was completely orange on me. I was totally disappointed. I would not recommend this to anyone. I wonder if something was wrong with it. It wasnt like anything I expected or had read about. Its like it had freezer burn or something or the bottle got over heated. But there was no brown color to it.

Quick Take: great for a little color.
I've been using this product for the last few years and just love it. It's easy to use and gives an even application. I use the light version and it is just enough color without looking overdone.

I love the way my skin looks after I use the spray. I don't look made up. The only thing I don't like it goes pretty quick. A bottle will last about a month to a month and half. Its pretty pricey. So, now I just use it on weekends.

-11.06.12
I like this bronzer because the color doesnt come out orange. However having tried other products its not really worth the price, Its a fairly small bottle, its lasted me about 2-3 months but I sprayed it about 4-5 times a week only on my face. The reason for 4 stars is because of the price, and because its not made to last, it comes of with your makeup remover. Im currently using a self tanner and I prefer having my tan last a couple of days rather than a few hours

super natural and light!
-10.20.12
Quick Take: hard to blend
There is nothing more to add...pure natural look if you are very tanned only! whats bad...spraying always is the hassle...it goes on the cloth etc...why 4 stars? hard to blend afterwards...where it goes on the face, there is going to stay! would still choose liquide foundation

By far the most natural tan for us pale skinned girls who want to tan without the sun or without turning orange. If i was a millionaire i would buy this by the case and use it everyday!
Good scent, no streaking, doesn't get on clothes.

Leaves a dewy, orange glow!
-08.31.12
Quick Take: orangey, dewy, fun to try
Perhaps I got the wrong color as I chose the medium and I am quite fair-skinned. It definitely looks orange and I counteract this with a lighter powder on top. However, it definitely leaves a dewy glow which is lovely.
I'll try the lighter version and see what happens!

Surprised at all the 5 stars
-08.03.12
Quick Take: orange, over priced
I am quite surprised by all of the 5 star reviews. In fact, I purchased the product based on others' reviews.
This idea of this product is awesome...a spray on bronzer! While it is quick to spray and fairly even, it is completely orange! I tried it on myself and my boyfriend (who is naturally very tan) and both of us looked orange.
I tried to spray as directed on can and I also tried it with a brush. Both were evenly distributed. The brush allowed the orange to fade to a lighter orange, but it was still there.
This product is overpriced and didn't give the results that everyone else spoke of.

LOVE this bronzer!
-07.08.12
Quick Take: long lasting, lightweight, non-oily
can be tricky to apply, but it gives the most amazing, radiant, jennifer lopez glow under makeup - and it stays put all day, even with my oily skin. it feels like nothing at all, and works so well under my nars foundation or tinted moisturizer. not orangy on me - just looks like i have a healthy glow.
to use this, i spray a spot on the area i want bronzed (i do my cheek, nose, forehead, chin). IMMEDIATELY, i use my fingers to spread it across the area - it's extremely quick-drying. then i use my flat-top foundation brush over it to buff it in further. i can see why it has some negative reviews about being difficult to work with - because it is. but i think it's worth it because it means that it stays put for the rest of the day. the instructions recommended spraying it in a circle over your whole face, but this did NOT work for me at all, sadly. i also apply moisturizer before i use this, which i think helps it blend much better - and i'm huge on exfoliating.

Worth every cent
-06.11.12
Quick Take: luminous
I complemented a friend on her luminous, glowing complexion and she shared her secret. The amazing, natural radiance this product provides doesn't rub off on clothes and stays put all day. It can be used (sparingly) on legs, arms, face and anywhere a natural lamination is needed. I have sice tried other Guerlain products and am impressed!
