Soleil tan de Chanel review

I had been lusting after this since end of October 2011 after seeing glowing reviews about it. However every Chanel make up counter and Internet site that stocks it had all sold out.

I even phoned up Chanel themselves who were extremely helpful and said that unfortunately there had been some form of a problem and it wouldn't be available until well after Christmas.

So I trawled EBay hoping to find the product on there, and I did, but was not willing to pay over double of what this product would cost direct from a Chanel counter.

So I new I wouldn't be getting this, not for a while anyway.

My daughter went to Egypt just before Christmas flying from Manchester airport, and I just asked her if she could ask on Chanel counter in duty free if they had any. Long shot I know but worth the try.

Well to my amazement my daughter phoned me up from the airport to say that she had managed to get me one and the Chanel consultant had said it was the only one they had, can you believe it, what luck, at last it was mine.

Couldnt wait to try it when my daughter got back, and I have to say it has certainly lived up to it's expectations.








I love this multi purpose product that claims to be a base for your foundation, commonly known by the old name of Chanel bronze universal.

You can wear this as a base to your foundation or you can use it as a bronzer, or brilliant for contouring the cheeks.

The consistency is not how you would imagine a bronzer to be, usually powder form. This has a moist texture but goes on like a powder, and this product really will go along way, so at £29.00 some people will say it's too expensive. But for the quality and the amount of time it will last you, I think it's well priced.

I love this product and would give it full marks in every way.

Have you tried this?

Bye 4 now
