Tom Ford Bronzing Powder in Terra

So here is my first review, and its a beauty.

Now normally I wouldn't shell out this amount of money on a bronzer, or any kind of makeup product. But for my birthday I got a few gift vouchers from House of Fraser and I've had my eye on Tom Ford products for a long time and this was no exception.

 

This is one of those, where do I start products? Well we have to start somewhere right? This comes in a brown 'Tom Ford' embossed pouch (that already makes me think of luxury). Now at first I had trouble opening it, but once I had realised it wasn't a clasp but more of a magnetic sort of casing, you gently pull it up and it reveals this;

 

 

 

 

A moment to stare? Ok here's another one, but closer up;

 

 

 This is the darker of the two bronzing powders available, the other one is Gold Dust. After using Nars Laguna for a long time and it not really appearing on my skin too well, I knew I needed a deeper bronzer if it was going to appear on my skin. I had read other reviews about how it wasn't actually that dark but still gave your skin the most amazing glow without making it look obvious that you had loads of product on your face. That is pretty much how I would describe it as well. It illuminates the face with this perfect skin kissed glow.

 

 My skin tone is neutral, I have hints of yellow and pink so when it comes to getting bronzers, I never like to make myself how should I say it? Look like I've been tangoed? This is just perfect for me. I would even go to say on paler skin you could use this as a contour and just blend that bad boy (Blending is everybody's friend ;-)) it actually comes across darker in the photos then it is in real life.

 

I can see this bronzer lasting me a very long time, and with the mirror, I would happily take this away with me if I was travelling as my only compact. And I am very happy that this was my first Tom Ford product.
