Thank you! I am feeling better!
This powder is so, so lovely....from the scent, to the silky consistency ,to how it finishes my makeup! I love it. If
you have any doubts you should definitely check it in store, but it's a winner in my book. I have Chanel Les Beiges
and I like this better. I can't see any shimmer in this when I'm wearing it...just a smooth silky finish.

So how are we using this one?? As a bronzer/blush or setting powder/finishing powder??

I'm using it as a setting powder. It's amazing as such.

I'm using it as a finishing powder but I also tried it on its own and both works great!

My Joli Teint is here!
Swatch time!!
I used my finger to heavily swatch the powder, accent shade, and mixture of them both. Then I took a brush and swirled it around to get the lighter swatch toward the bottom left. As you can see it imparts a nice subtle warmth. Haven't tried it on my face yet, but I can see this working as an all-over setting powder, or built up in specific areas (the "figure 3" perhaps, recommended by Guerlain) for added warmth. I think this one will work just fine!
My only criticism...what is that fragrance? It's not the usual meteorites scent. It's very perfumey to me. Not a deal breaker, but I don't love it. Did anyone else notice it?

Here you go Meddy! This is what's included with the 03 Natural Brunettes: (sorry they're sideways! I rotated and saved them on my computer but they just want to be sideways apparently)You know Ella, I didn't check the name o the product in the box carefully and I've already tossed it, so when you gt your's, would you check the see if it's the 'Terracotta Skin' Healthy Glow Foundation?
I think it was because it comes in Nude, Blondes & Brunette & that's how they probably package it. Even though it was nice, I have no intention of ordering it. I'm sure the powder will also be amazing with my Baby Glow just as well as it is with TJTF!

I have 02 and am LOVING it! I wonder of this one is different enough in my fair skin to justify having both...

Thanks Ella! I did see this foundation in Guerlain's product lineup. I enjoyed the sample but I'll be sticking with my Terracotta Joli Teint Healthy Glow Fluid FoundationHere you go Meddy!

The scent isn't a deal-breaker, but I'm not a fan. But I generally am sensitive to a lot of fragrances so most people probably won't be bothered. Glad you're loving Brunette Natural! I look forward to experimenting with it over the next couple of days.I don't mind the fragrance. I'm in love with this powderI've been wearing it everyday, as an all-over setting powder. Brunette Natural 03 is perfect for me.

It's funny because I don't see that much difference between Clair and Natural Brunettes. I think the colors are buildable but go on pretty sheer so you could get away with either one no matter your skin tone.
