New Deeper Shade Chanel Bronzer for 2021

After years of just having one shade in the Soleil de Tan Cream Bronzer, Chanel has finally added a new deeper shade, called 395 Soleil Tan Deep Bronze.

My Review

The new deep shade is too dark for me, so this based on the original shade.

I find the formula really easy to apply straight over my foundation. I tried two different brushes – the Clinique Foundation Buff Brush*, and the Bobbi Brown Full Coverage Brush*. They both worked really well with the formula, although I think the Bobbi one has the edge if you want a more intense look. Both excellent though.

The product glides on and gives the skin a very soft-focus, super flattering finish, that’s matte in a velvety way, and not at all flat. It didn’t break up my makeup underneath and just really smoothed over the skin, enhancing the appearance of my complexion. If you are worried about enlarged pores, you need not with this as the soft mattifying effect gives a very uniform texture to the skin.

It smells lovely. A tiny little bit like chocolate but I imagine that is down to the light coconut oil in the formula. Don’t worry about this if you are prone to breakouts – this bronzer is non-comedegenic which means it won’t block pores. The colour is really good and not too warm even for my very pale skin. I applied it over the Tom Ford Shade & Illuminate Foundation* in shade Porcelain (review & swatches here) and it blended in perfectly.

Is the new shade the same formula as the Universal Shade?

So both the shades I have are in the newer formula. As I said at the top, the bronzer was reformulated in 2020, and my lighter shade is in that formula.

Now I do find the Deep shade to have a bit more slip to it. This might be because it’s brand new, but they do feel a bit different. It does dry down in pretty much the same way as the lighter one, but I thought it was worth noting.

Like the 390, it blends beautifully and wears on the skin really well. I left both the swatches on my arm after testing, and neither really faded.

Where to buy Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream:

      • Great, seen the video now, don’t think it was there when I posted question. Looks gorgeous and easy to apply. Trying to work out if I can justify the spend…! Having GWP withdrawals at the moment too! Craving something to cheer me up in lockdown, so hope they don’t disappear! x
