Review 1 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Beautiful sunkissed tan
-05.10.13
Quick Take: natural looking
This is the best bronzer I have ever used. Everyone must try it. It is very smooth, and does not look fake. The first day I put on this bronzer I received compliments that my skin looked like it was kissed by the sun. I chose 05, but I feel I can go darker than 05. What I like about this bronzer is that it is not so dark allowing you to control the product better.

Review 2 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Love it!
-05.06.13
Quick Take: natural looking
First time using this product, although it has been recommended to me for years. Don't know why I waited so long! I am pretty fair skinned but was looking for a bronzer that gave an extra glow. I originally purchased in the 03 but returned for the 05 as I wanted a little more color. Highly recommend! Natural and long wearing!

Quick Take: natural looking
I like pretty much everything for Guerlain. This product has a matte glow and gives a very natural tan or can be used as a contouring powder.

Review 4 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Great Bronzer!
-04.25.13
Quick Take: luminous glow
I have been using this product for 10 years, and I think this is the best bronzer ever! I use it as a blusher, and it lasts about 4 years. I strongly suggest this product to sun kissed look lovers.

Best
-04.23.13
Best bronzers on the market. My mom used this one in the 70s, and it's stood the test of time. Not too much shimmer like a lot of other brands. The only one that holds a candle to it is maybe Laguna from NARs.

Review 7 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Review 8 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
The Best
-04.18.13
An excellent bronzer that made me a believer in bronzers after trying others over the years that were too sparkly or too muddy or too drying or too ... something. This one is just right. Simply gives my look a little more color, depth and glow without obvious shimmer. Goes on like silk, long lasting even in humidity. No problems thus far with my sensitive, combination skin. My first Guerlain product and now I've also gotten a primer, foundation and the meteorite beads finishing powder. Everything is excellence defined with beautiful results. Hard to describe the difference, but it's real and is worth the higher price. If I'd started here, I probably would have actually saved $$$ over the years ...

Review 9 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
A staple in your purse
-04.09.13
Quick Take: natural looking, luminous glow
I've been using number two since I was 22. It gives off a gorgeous healthy tone that looks absolutely natural. I do a quick sweep over my forehead, nose, cheekbones, and chin for an overall vavavoom! When I get dark in the summer I go for the golden highlighter that they put out every year under a different collection such as Indian Summer, Moroccan gold( just making up the names) but anyway this is also in a compact-- By the way, one compact lasts one year and I use it everyday withouth fail. So for those who make comments that the compact is small and shallow may mean a reflection on their own belief system,
The proof is in the use of it. A great value for little money, divide the costs per 365 days in the year and I think you'll get what i'm saying.

Review 10 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
My all-time favorite
-04.08.13
Quick Take: perfect
I have used Guerlain bronzing powder for over 20 years and keep coming back to it. The shade 01 is a matt bronzing powder that goes on as lightly or heavily as you wish. I have a fair complexion (turning golden if tanned) and the 01 gives me a youthful and healthy look. The multi-shaded 03 Brunettes l bought last year didn't have the same, lovely result, although it may do well for someone extremely fair who wants a hardly noticeable change in skin tone. I am in my late sixties, am generally conservative with make-up/colors but enjoy the fresh look this product imparts.

Review 11 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Best Bronzer Ever`
-04.06.13
Quick Take: matte finish, natural looking, luminous glow
I use both 7 & 8. I use 7 when I want a nice soft contour or just a sun kiss glow. I use 8 wen I want something a little more dramatic. Both are amazing beautiful and they show up so well on deep and dark skin tones. The powder blends so beautifully. I mean one word description for this is just "beautiful."

Review 12 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Small compact, highly fragranced
-04.03.13
I didn't even try the bronzer, so I cannot comment on its performance - once I caught a whiff of this highly scented product, it went straight back. I can say, however, that the compact is very petite and shallow - not a lot of product for the money. Moreover, I just couldn't get over the overpowering rose fragrance.

Review 14 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Lives up to it's name
-03.23.13
Quick Take: natural, luxurious, hydrating
This bronzer is simply amazing. I use shade 01 and it works beautifully, stays on throughout the day, feels good, smells good, everything you would want in a luxurious product. It doesn't streak or even look like you have bronzer on, just gives a natural tan glow. The powder is so light and creamy feeling, but very matte...I have no idea how they do it. Will always buy this bronzer :)

Like my favorite jeans...Ive tried others, but this is what I always come back to.
I have medium complected skin...this is just perfect and I can use it all over without the orange effect. Nice warnth and just enough subtle sheen to give some glow. Highly recommend for anyone (other than super pale skin tones).

Review 19 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
-02.09.13
natural-looking, matte bronzer; doesn't even seem like i have make-up on. i have light-medium skin. the sephora colorist gave me 01. in the compact it doesn't seem dark enough, but when she put it on, it was def the right color for a natural-look.

Review 20 for Terracotta Bronzing Powder
Pure Gold!
-02.08.13
Quick Take: natural looking, luminous glow
I was introduced to Guerlain 6 years ago, never knew who they were before. This was the product given to me as a present on my trip in Ibiza, and I have never looked back. In fact, this is the only bronzer I use to this very day! It is THAT good! I know it's quite pricey, but it's truly worth it and the product lasts for a long time. Products that last for a long time for a higher price works in my book - I feel I get more bang for my buck. Highly recommended product!
