I’m so sad that Tom Ford discontinued the soleil line because the bronzer in shade Terra was my HG! I’m a light neutral/warm olive and I find the Gucci pulls a bit too pink on me (enhances my rosacea.) The TF sat right between Gucci 01 and most other golden bronzers for me. I also like The Balm Oliver, have you tried?
I can definitely see the Gucci being too rosy for some folks (and that's also why I have a big collection of bronzers I like better in the summer). I haven't tried Oliver but I will definitely look into it!
This is so useful! I have fair cool olive skin with dark hair, brows, and eyes. I also have very pink lips. Bronzer has been so intimidating for me but now I have the green light to go ahead with the Gucci. lol
One thing I would love to read about is the colors of brownish lip products you like. I have yet to find something I like. I don't know if it is bc my lips are so naturally pink or because I have such a high contrast complexion.
Amazing! I'm so excited for you to have a bronzer that's going to work for you - let me know when you get it how it works out!
What kind of lip products? I have at least 20 browns (maybe more?) since I've made it my mission to find really great browns that work for olive, high contrast, pigmented lip folks. I have lip balms, glosses, lipsticks, and everything in between.
Any and all of the products. I am leaning towards balms and gloss sticks lately. I have so many browns that just make me look like I'm coffin ready. Would love to hear about the ones you love.
Lovely post! I have the Phytosurgence in Rosy Daybreak and am curious how it would stack up next to the RMS and Gucci; probably less saturated for sure, but might be a great cream layer under the powders!

Working on it - should have the post up with my 5 favorites tomorrow!

It's definitely similar in tone to the Gucci and great to layer under that one especially in the winter!
Perfect, thank you!!
