Dior Bronze Matte Sunshine SPF 20 Review
Price : Rs 3,085
My experience : I feel it is very difficult to find a good bronzer- one that does not go patchy through out the day, one that compliments your skin tone and one that does not turn into a weird shade of orange as the day passes.
This one passes all the tests. I have been using it for quite a while now and I I have to say i totally love it.
- It is a matte bronzer. So you can use it to bronzer your skin with a bit of highlighter and a rosy pink blush to bet that perfect sunkissed look. OR you can use it to contour your features and add that slimming effect to your face. Also since it is matte it does not accentuate your pores unlike the shimmery bronzers.
- It is a perfect shade of bronzer- not orangey. Although it is available in 3-4 shades, i feel those with dusky skin tones would find it difficult to find a shade for themselves.
- It is water resistant and goes on all day long without getting patchy.
- Contains SPF 20
- Is very pigmented and totally buildable.
- Goes on super smooth.
- Love the packaging.
- Have never caused any breakouts and does not have any funny smell.

FOTD: (please note that I have used bronzer heavily for photographs. In real life I go a little light handed than this. )
And this is today’s FOTD. 🙂

I have been lusting after that Tie and Dye clutch forever!!
I love the Dior eyeshadows. Have always been curious about their blushes and now I can add bronzers to the list. The only downside is the cost 🙁 Cant pick these up like the other brands.
everything is just so perfect..love the coral top and gold neckpiece..fab rati!

Absolutely stunning look, Rati, the bronzer is going so well with the orange blouse, you know how much I simply love skirts and blouses. Must try using bronzers some time on myself! (BTW, just emailed you some news from my end). 🙂
oh okay. will check. :)) thanks a lot. 🙂

Gorgeous is the word. Oh No wait .. i need a better word.. 🙂 🙂 Jimmy choos???!!! Would have loved a closer piccy..!!
that’s a closer look of the shoes : http://fashion.makeupandbeauty.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_1961.jpg
thanks 🙂
WOWWWWW!!!!!! What a lovely treat to the eyes! I was feeling all groggy n looking at ur pics totally woke me up! 🙂
This is a look I could easily steal. Ok, how would the same shirt look on black trousers, tucked in? Or should I not tuck it in? Any tips? 🙂
ramya if you are going for a little formal look, tuck in and may be wear a nice black belt. if you are going for a casual look, just tuck in from the fornt. The fabric is flowy and it looks really nice and sort of billowy when tucked out from the back. 😀 You can wear this with shorts too . 🙂 thanks 🙂
I never thought of that!! I think I’ll do the tuck-in-infront-only thing, it seems like a fantastic idea! 🙂 Thankuuuu 🙂
loved the look completely. very nice..
Ooooh!!! I love this look, Rati! 🙂 You look really nice here! 😀
thanks sam and gurpeet 🙂
Loved the bag & top. Please tel the price 🙂
Awesome look, the skirt fits so well…one such skirt in black is a must have in everyone’s wardrobe…will go to Zara soon to check out 🙂
thanks soujanya.
Rose, sorry dont remem the price!!
love the shirt and I think one must have the figure or the guts to tuck tops in..:) you certainly carry it off with class. thats a nice bag. exactly how big is it? file/folder size?
thanks aruna. 🙂 yeah folder size would be the exact size 🙂
u look too good Rati…beautiful..
Bronzer goes well with your skin, loved the top and skirt 🙂
Me liked the Ring, but you have not included in the poll 🙁 🙁 🙁 this type of ring (in between fingers) i have never seen before
love this tangy tangerine look!!!
nice outfit Rati… you looking freat.. loved ur neck piece..
you look stunning Rati….love the color of your top….bronzer seems good too, but as you said, dusky girls may have dificulty in finding a shade:-(
I LOVE the top, Rati, it’s a very good colour on you 🙂 and the skirt goes well with it! This is citywalk, isn’t it? 😀
There is nothing I would not like to steal in this FOTD. 🙂
Wow I am in love with the whole look!
U look damn good here Rati, loved the clean and chic look mmmuaaah :-*
Luv the color of the top…. agree its really hard to find the right shade of the bronzer…after so many misses I found the estee lauder matt bronzer to perfect for my skintone… but will try this next for sure.
Hi! Just wondering which particular shade of the bronzer you used. Thanks!
