Soleil Tan De Chanel = To Die For Bronzer

Before I figured out how to use Chanel's bronzing makeup base: Soleil Tan De Chanel (formerly Bronze Universel De Chanel), it just sat in my makeup drawer collecting dust. I didn't know how to apply it, and was using a sponge applicator. I didn't like the fact that when I put it on with the sponge, I was never able to get an even application. My skin always looked blotchy cakey in areas. Ugh!
Thank goodness I eventually learned how to apply it correctly...with a face brush!! What a difference! If your experiencing the same dilemma, try it this way. Just swirl your face brush (I use e.l.f.'s Studio Powder Brush) in the mousse like consistency. Then start from the outside of your face, and work inwards. Lightly brush all over face for an amazing glow! That's it! You can wear it just by itself for a more dewy fresh look, or try setting it with your favorite powdered bronzer. One of my high end favorites is Chanel's Moisturizing Bronzing Powder in #63 Terre Ambre. A drugstore dupe for less than a fraction of the cost is N.Y.C's Matte Bronzer in Sunny #720.
Even though at a pricey $48.00, this bronzer is worth the splurge! I have had mine for almost a year and only now have started to make a dent in it. It has become one of my staple items. It lasts all day and I never have to retouch it! After a long night of partying with friends, it did not budge, smear, or melt off. It stayed on like a true champ!
