Giorgio Armani Sun Fabric Sheer Bronzer 100

This entry features a new bronzer that I bought....last month? Again, I am trying to get through new stuff that I bought...and trying to feature them on the blog. I usually start with what I have been using the most recently, and well, let's start from there. Makeup hasn't been the topmost piriority these days - but I do sucked in ocassionally by some of the gorgeous releases this summer.. a bronzer here, a new foundation there, another lippy there.... but I haven't felt the urge to actually blog about them. Perhaps I am stuck in a makeup rut... all I wear most of the days are just my base, cheeks, and lips... nothing on the eyes. I have been doing a lot of wardrobe updates and clothes shopping though (many of you might have notice my weightloss in which I lost significant clothes sizes - so that has been really fun lol, the shopping I don't mind at all!) so if you like to see fashiony type entries... do let me know!

So anyway, I can't say no to the Giorgio Armani Sun Fabric Sheer Bronzer -the name alone sucked me in. It sounds the the perfect kind of bronzer that's easy to use, it is sheer so you can slap it on and look sun kissed immediately. Plus the texture of this bronzer is just amazing...everything you expect and associated with GA products. Very soft, very fine.. and just really awesome to use. I don't actually use the brush that comes along with the compact... I usually use a large fluffy face brush to light dust this all over my forehead and the sides of my cheeks.. and on particularly lazy days I also use this on my cheeks in place of an actual blusher.

Here are some close ups of the bronzer - I believe there are 2 or 3 shades available in SG.... and I got mine in the shade 100 which is the lightest. It reminds me of the Chanel Les Beiges in shade 30 which I also own... and also the new summer Chanel Les Beiges in shade 200 (which I realise after I checked my pictures folder the Chanel one has a more pinky undertone) and this GA Bronzer in 100 is really a nice earthy tone bronzer that isn't orangey nor too warm. I likey....

and you can see that I have been using this bronzer... for at least a couple of weeks.. and the grooves on the bronzer are starting to look less defined. I also noticed that the initial few applications, the bronzer contains a bit of shimmery bits... but that could be a faint overspray...the more I use it, the less shimmery bits there are, and now it is just a smooth satin finish barely there kind of sunkissed glow. LOVE IT>

Here's how I casually and messily dust the bronzer on my forehead and cheeks. If you are fair to light skintone, this is a great shade match for you.
and overall look - very natural.. and very healthy.. I like to use bronzers like this to add some warmth to my skin. Not as in actually contouring.

Hope this overview has been helpful and thanks for looking!
