Guerlain Terracotta Route Des Îles Tan Enhancing Bronzer
Packaging, Price & Formula
Housed in a sturdy wooden compact. Screams luxury. Environmentally sound wooden pack (using wood from PEFC approved sustainably managed forests). It also has a wide mirror and a two-tone powder block – combination of the best-selling Terracotta shade 03, subtly iridescent, which naturally warms all complexions, and the it-colour for summer, a slight gold shimmer apricot colour, to illuminate the tan. The colors can either be blended together to warm the complexion and enhance the natural radiance of the tan or applied separately to achieve the desired intensity.
Retails for $72 ; You get 22g/0.7oz of product.
The large mirror on the inner lid comes handy while travelling and on the go touchups. Now, coming onto it’s beautiful design embossing – The compass pattern on the surface is absolutely gorgeous, with the brand’s best-selling 03 shade making up the tanned portion, and a pop of peach/coral in the centre for that extra warmth. The golden ‘rays’ that you see in the picture is actually an overspray that will get wiped away within the first few uses, but somehow a touch of the shimmer does remain slightly behind.
