Many have compared this to 'Chanel Soleil tan de chanel' Although i have never tried this Chanel product i'd say that from pictures they look quite different, the Chanel soleil defiantly looks like it has much more of a cream product consistency whereas this Bourjois bronzing primer is more of a mousse consistency, however performance whys i can't compare, other than Bourjois being a much cheaper alternative.
I use this as a bronzer supposed to a primer, simply because i find the smell slightly over powering to use all over my face, and being as pale as i am, i rather use a bronzer to contour than for an all over colour. I lightly dot this under my cheekbones and on my temples (as it's matt it works perfectly as a subtle contour), and then blend it in with a stippling brush, and it blends BEAUTIFULLY, like seriously.
(Swatches: Heavy swatch, Blended)
This bronzer gave me a beautiful sun kissed glow, and looked so natural, It's not too orange or muddy at all, and really compliments my pale skin; Although i think this colour would only work for light - medium complexions. However one of the problems i did have with this product and another reason i would use it as a primer, is that is felt quite heavy on my skin, although it didn't look heavy at all i really could feel it sitting on my skin, and was aware of it being on my face which i rarely experience. However it blends and looks so brilliantly i can forgive it for this :)
Pros: Blends perfectly, not to orange or muddy, compliments a pale complexion.
Cons: Slightly over powering scent, feels quite heavy, not suitable for darker skin tones.
