Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream ($50)
This product has been loved for years, particularly by beauty YouTubers. I always wanted to buy it, but $50 seemed insane. I finally bit the bullet after seeing many of my favorite bloggers rave about the product over the last year.
Wow, wow, wow! This product is as amazing as everyone says. Because I don’t wear foundation, I rely on bronzer to add color and life to my face. I used to be a die hard powder bronzer lover, but in recent years cream formulations have won me over. This product in particular has a drier cream forumula which I love! Because it’s drier it doesn’t feel heavy on the skin, doesn’t wipe off if you touch it, or look wet and juicy like a cream blush might. It comes in two shades, I take the lighter one and I find it’s the perfect warm bronze for an all over glow even when I’m at my palest. While it may look intimidating at first, it’s almost foolproof to over do it! My favorite brush to use is a Real Techniques 201 brush. Two swirls for each side of my face is all I need and I’m ready for the day.
$50 is expensive for a product, but you get a lot! This can easily last you over a year or more with daily use. I wouldn’t be surprised if I have to replace it due to age alone before actually finishing the product all together. This will be a forger repurchase for me! I bought it first at Nordstrom, but next time I’ll probably buy from Chanel’s website to see if the delivery packaging is as beautiful as Dior’s.
Most of us are millennials here and we are the bronzer generation!! What’s your “forever repurchase” bronzer?
