The first powder bronzer I ever used was a Terracotta from Guerlain. I remember reading about it's bronzing perfection in Glamour magazine and saved up my allowance to purchase it from the May Company. I think I was just 16 or 17, and having only used gel bronzers before, I was excited to try this new wonder. I have been hooked on the Terracotta bronzers ever since, and pick up a new one each summer season.
Well, this summer, there is much more to want from the Guerlain Terracotta Collection. Read on and you will see why.
