It's not but fortunately I can smell the fragrance of the bronzers only while I'm applying them.I think there are people who genuinely suffer w/strong fragrances. I feel for them.
That's so not a good thing!

Unfortunately some of them I can still smell for awhile after I've applied them to my face. That stinks (pun intended)

It's probably the tiare flower scent that's on the new terracotta bronzers. All that I know is that it's not a scent for everyone, just like how the violet scent can be overpowering on some of their products. I liked the Terracotta perfume from last year but skipped it because I already had a perfume back then. If they ever put a fragrance on one of their makup products similar to Insolence, my head would probably explode from a powerful headache. D:

It does sound allergy relatedI hope so! LOL
Thanks Meddy - yeah I'm not sure why, but the older I get, the more intolerant of perfumey things I get. Wearing any perfume is tricky for me - even if I find one I think I like, I almost inevitably have to stop wearing it because it gives me headaches or makes my nose burn! Must be allergy-related.

The only scent that I can't tolerate in any shape or form is gardenia, I can smell it immediately in any perfume. A few months ago, I was in a store and really liked the bottle of the Narciso perfume, so I sprayed it once on my wrist without smelling it first - stupid, right?? I thought that I was going to die!! It was absolutely horrible, I felt like I have bathed in it. I would never buy even the prettiest makeup product, if it smells of gardenia

I am wearing joli teint powder duo today. I LOVE IT! it is so light and soft I did it all over and then just slightly more like number 3 to add bit more of a warmth. I am nc15 and pale as a ghost and brunettes clair is perfect it is very light. This would be awesome as a bronzer for those that are very light and scared of using a bronzer.
Great job guerlain!

If you have the Guerlain #2 Jolie Tint powder, what is your foundation shade? Do the blondes run cool, and the brunettes warm? Any thoughts on colors?

I wear mac nc15/20, chanel beige 10/20, dior nude 011,021, nars deuvile - i hope that helps
i do not know if blondes run cool but I would assume so! I like something warmer that's why i picked brunettes. and i like that it has peachy and not pinkish part

I love it too monsy and so as my mom. I got her the natural brunettes. Lol.
I'm nc45 with warm undertones I got 02 natural blondes and when blended it runs slightly cool gives more of radiance than a'ghostly' look. I love these joli teint ones. I also got the foundation in fonce. I need to get a refill for summer.

Just a pump is all good. I wear it during the summer when I'm tanned. Lol. As an NC45 I tan easily during the summer. Like in 15 minutes! Lol.

I'm YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat BD50 which I think is about NC30 and I got the 03 Natural Brunettes. It is warm-toned. This shade works fine for me to apply as a light finish all over the face, or with a denser brush in certain areas to add more warmth. Would work for darker skin tones as well - Meddy has the same shade and loves it. Based on Monsy's swatches, it looks like the Clair Brunettes is similarly warm so if you're lighter than maybe NC25, perhaps Clair would be a little better? But they're pretty sheer so I think you could make either work.

I love the sun but it doesn't love me. I tan very quickly too. I wear a hat when I have the top down on my car. I have Fonce but it oxidizes on me and looks super dark---in a very weird way.
