Bronzer Obsession Series: Guerlain Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder Review, Comparison and Swatches



Hello lovelies, how are y'all doing? Recently I am very much into the brand, as I repeated myself over and over again. Everything from Guerlain is so luxurious, so beautiful, and works so so so well on me. Today, I just want to talk about some Guerlain bronzers for you!

I am always very obsessed with bronzers. I only have some staple ones to contour, such as Nars Laguna and Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil. Laguna for winter, and Milk Chocolate for summer. They are the bronzers I am currently hitting pan on. These do have a more brown and yellow undertone.

The rest of the bronzers I have are either orange or red. Those I use as a blush + bronzer hybrid. For convenience in the morning, and also just for the great pick-me-up effect they give my face.

Now these Guerlain Terracotta Light Bronzing Powders are the ones I will use to add colour to my face. Especially in winter. It makes you look healthy and glowy without having a vacation!

Sephora 20% off Haull + Video!!!


Hello everyone! I finally finished my Sephora 20% off haul. The store was crazy packed.

Recently, I am just very into creating flawless complexions. I am kind of over the whole lipgloss, eyeshadow phase for now. Like I said in my last post, recently I am also very into Guerlain. So I purchased two of their powders. One is the Guerlain Meteorites in 02 Clair, the other is the Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder. I have two of the bronzers, they are 02 Blondes and 04 Sun Blondes.

I have also purchased the Hourglass Ambient Powder in Diffused Light, and a Dior DiorShow Mono Fusion Eyeshadow in 661 Meteore.



If you don't want to read my insanely long blog, feel free to watch me be weird live.

Bronzer Obsession Series: A Snow Bunny indeed...


Hi all, as we are stepping into winter, I'd like to share my new favourite bronzer with you. I am a bronzer fanatic... My all time favourite is the Too Faced Milk Chocolate, but here is another one from Too Faced that I absolutely love for winter. Honestly, I think I love all the bronzers from Too Faced. To me, it is one of my favourite brands, take away the kiddish packagings...

It is the Snow Bunny bronzer. With this, I can pretty much just brush it on and go. It is like a blush + bronzer for me. I am very fair (NC15), on darker skintones I'd say this is more like a highlighter.

Bronzer Obsession Series: Nars Casino

I like how everyone is trapped in the craze for Laguna.

While Laguna is great, I only think it is good used as a bronzer. If you contour with bronzers, and you have a warm undertone, how's Laguna good?!

Now, before you decide to throw stones at me, I need to clarify something. I have a lot of red undertone in my skin, and my skin is ultra sensitive. A slight touch on my face will turn that entire area red, and I embarrass so easily! And when I turn red, I don't turn pink, I turn tomato red.

So for me, naturally, when I was on my search for a contour, I was worrying what everyone else was worrying, I do not want to look like an orange. I mean a tomato and an orange just don't go well together. So I looked into Laguna and almost bought it, because everyone raves how it has no orange at all, how it is a golden brown that is excellent for fair skin's contour.

Except, of course, when I put it on at Sephora, it was...yellow. I am not exaggerating at all. It appeared that I have a dark yellow patch on the side of my face. It was dead obvious that I wanted to contour but uh..failed. Honestly I was puzzled, how did that happen?

Then I saw Casino, it is not by any means darker in the pan, just warmer. What the hell, I'll give it a try too, and I did. And guess what, it looked a lot more natural on me. Though slightly more orange toned than that golden beige brown that Laguna has, it appears much more like a shadow of my own, instead of an obvious use of cosmetics to create a dirty looking hollow.
