I must admit that I don’t really understand bronzing products.  What can they do that a good blush can’t?

So I test trialled Clinique’s True Bronze Bronzing Gel as a true sceptic.

This product can be used either on it’s own or mixed with foundation.  I tried both and found I preferred to use it on its own.  The formulation is very light and can get lost in foundation.  On it’s own, I found it easier to build up the impact.

The effect itself is lovely.  My skin was transformed from ok, but not fantastic, to glowing.  The product worked well both at work during the day and in the evening at dinner.  I love versatility and this product has it in spades.

Have I been convinced about bronzers?  No, not yet.  But using a beautiful product like this has edged me closer to being a devotee.  Clinique rarely get it wrong and this is no exception.

Pros: Lovely formulation, gives skin a natural glow

Cons: Someone please explain to me the point of bronzer?!
