Tan (3)

Charlotte Tilbury Tan (3) Airbrush Bronzer ($55.00 for 0.56 oz.) is a medium brown with moderate, warm yellow undertones and a matte finish. It had medium, buildable color coverage that applied unevenly and was difficult to spread and diffuse without a heavy hand; it was easier to apply set-foundation or powdered bare skin, but the excessive amount of blending did result in foundation lifting a bit.

The texture felt finely-milled but papery, drier, and there were clumps of powder that almost pilled up on my skin as I tried to apply and blend out the product. It darkened slightly over bare skin for me as well. The finish was very flat and matte, which resulted in emphasizing skin texture (especially when I smiled). The color showed signs of fading after eight hours of wear.
