Soleil Tan De Chanel & Chanel Lip Balm – Glam Radar

by Maria · June 7, 2014

Today I treated myself with two luxury items from Chanel, the Soleil Tan De Chanel (Summer 2011 – Bronzing powder compact) and the Hydramax + Active Nutrition lip balm .Here is my review of Soleil Tan De Chanel & Chanel Lip Balm !

The Chanel bronzing powder caught my eye immediately because of the gorgeous colors. Since it’s a limited edition I had to get it! I got the lightest color 547 Bronze Rosé, but I wish I had got the darker one. It just looked really dark at the makeup counter (and I didn’t even swatch!), but once I tried it on and realized how sheer this color is, I could have easily pulled off the darker one.

I tried using the pink color as a blush, and it was really pretty. Maybe – just maybe, a little bit ashy pink, since I have a tan and it’s on the lighter side (think Nars Orgasm). 

It will work as an amazing highlighter on a tanne

by one. Right: mixed together

Word of advice: Toss the brush immediately! You would think for this price and brand that Chanel were able to make a super soft brush to come with it…well this can clean out your stained pots and pans. It’s harsh! You can even tell on the picture that it has left marks on the powder.

I’m a sucker for lip balm and have been since I was little. I didn’t even know Chanel made lip balm in a jar until just recently, so of course I had to get it..
This is a big jar (0.35 oz/10 g) so, although it’s very pricey, you still get a lot of product for the money. It has a lovely neutral smell and even tastes good!
If you’re looking for a lipgloss-lip balm this is not it. This is not going to give you pouty shiny lips. This is more like the name says – a hydrating and nutritional lip balm. I only wish it had SPF. That’s a little disappointing, but other than that, I love it!
