When should this bronzing powder be used for a sun-kissed glow?
Avril Organic Bronzing Powder is a pressed powder based on mica and organic tapioca starch, enriched with shea butter, lecithin and jojoba oil from organic farming. It is applied at the end of your complexion make-up, over foundation or on bare skin.
It warms the complexion with a sun-kissed effect, as if back from a few days in the sun, applied to the forehead, the bridge of the nose, the cheekbones and the chin.
Its silky texture blends easily with a brush and layers without a patchy effect, so the intensity can be built up coat by coat.
The five shades give either a matte finish (Amande, Désert) or a shimmer finish (Ambrée, Camel, Caramel) that catches the light on the top of the cheekbones. It suits oily, combination, normal and dry skin.
For a radiant complexion under the powder, a primer prepares the skin. For this, we suggest Avril Organic Illuminating Primer: the primer evens out and adds radiance, the bronzing powder then brings the colour.

Our expert advice on Avril Bronzing Powder
A bronzing powder goes where the sun would naturally hit: top of the forehead, bridge of the nose, cheekbones and chin. The rest of the face stays lighter, which avoids the mask effect of colour applied all over. A large, lightly loaded brush, tapped on the back of the hand before application, limits excess on fair skin.
