Time to Glow

 I have so much time for Bourjois of late. Every season they really up their game and always offer innovative products that actually answer a need. A need you didn't know you had perhaps, but once you see their products, you need them! Their latest bronzing range which hits counters in June is a clever little collection. I was impressed with the Mineral Bronzing Foundation, which as you can see above is in a classic shaker pot but you can alter the amount of the bronzing element that comes out so you are in control of the depth of colour. Very clever and very appropriate with it's SPF15 too. It also smells undeniably of Summer with cocoa bean and orange blossom extracts. As with all loose mineral powders, you need a light touch with a soft brush and buff, buff, buff your way to a bronzed glow...


This is the full Summer line entitled Delice de Soleil that includes a bronzing spray and two new lip gloss shades in a really pretty coral and deeper cool rust tone. The glosses have SPF15 and are waterproof...clever Bourjois Boffins!


This is the regular bronzing powder which they have developed in two colour options; one for lighter skins, one for more olive tones so no more 'one shade suits all' rubbish anymore, we are too savvy now to believe that farce, thank you very much! I like the peach undertones that brighten the skin rather than make it appear too dark and muddy. At the usually excellent price points we can expect, I think this is a quality collection and one well worth checking out.
