SOLEIL TAN DE CHANEL – LUMINOUS BRONZING POWDER

Two bronzers — each comprised of seven unique shades, including a luminous gold — lend subtle hints of warmth and shimmer to every complexion. A soft peach palette brings a fresh glow to lighter skin, while a deeper pink harmony lends radiance to darker tones. Blended together, the shades create a seamless bronzing effect; used on their own, the gold powders illuminate the complexion, while the darker shades sculpt the face when gently swept along its natural contours. $60.00 Limited Edition

Here are 3-easy steps to achieve the Chanel Bronze Goddess look as explained by Anna Schneider:

Step 1: Start with clean, moisturized skin.
Step 2: Apply your favorite Chanel tinted moisturizer to face and neck.
Step 3: Using Chanel Soleil Tan de Chanel Luminous Bronzing Powder ($60.00) in Sable Beige and a medium or large powder brush, dust evenly over face and neck.

Bronzing Tip: To contour or highlight use a small or medium angled powder brush after your initial bronzing; go back and go over your cheekbones, brushing up towards the hairline, middle of forehead and down the bridge of your nose.
