Bourjois Bronzing Primer Review

Bourjois Bronzing primer was released last summer if I'm correct, but I've only just started using it properly these last 2 months and i thought id give you my opinion ( I know I'm abit late with this product lol), I love Bourjois makeup and every time they are releasing something I get so excited because i know it wont disappoint me. I wanted to get it because everyone was saying how its a dupe for the 'Soleil Tan De Chanel' I thought I might as well check it out.

A brief description 
Give you skin a beautiful brazened glow. with correcting airbrush action, the bronzing primer smoothes out your skin for an even mattified makeup result. Its luxurious velvety texture blends into any skin tone for a ultra natural skin glow. Can be worn alone or under foundation to warm up your complexion, You only need a tiny bit.
It has a thick consistency creamy texture, kind of like a mousse. It has the most amazing smell fragrance, its a mixture of vanilla and chocolate, if your not a fan of strong scents don't worry it doesn't linger around for long. 
Here's two pictures of one not blended (above) and one blended (below).

I like to apply this under my foundation as a base, so where the sun would naturally hit, cheek bones, jaw, nose, temples. I may apply some more over the top if i feel like i want some more colour. I apply it with either three brushes, Real Techniques contour brush, or a flat top kabuki brush or an angled kabuki brush, I find that these blend the product really easy and blends in with the foundation. I dip the brush into the product then ill just dab it onto the inside of the lid just to remove the excess as you don't want too much product. The bronzer does look orange but once blended it doesn't look like that at all, it just warms your complexion and gives you a bit of warmth to the skin.

Overall I love how natural it is on my skin, It retails at just £9.99 and its a big thumbs up for me.

  3. Not seen much about this product before, I always see great reviews of their "chocolate" bronzing powder though. This does sound nice but bronzer scares me as I'm normally so pale and worry I'll end up looking like an Oompa Loompa ha ha :) xx

  5. I'm so pale, and I'm not a huge fan of the Bourjois bronzing powder however your review is great and it sounds like a good product, and also looks like one too! Would definitely have to use this on holiday though or with a tan to a party or something as I am so pale ! xx

  6. This looks gorgeous! I love Chanel Tan de Soleil but it's definitely too pricey for more than a one off purchase, this seems like a great alternative :) Xx

  7. This sounds like an awesome product, I'm tanned most places but my face is still pale in comparison, so hopefully this would even that out!
