Clinique Almost Bronzer

I love Clinique’s range of “Almost” products, so I was ecstatic to see their new release of Almost Bronzer! It comes in a cute bronze compact with an included brush, perfect for tossing in your beach bag for spur of the moment touch ups.

I could see myself sweeping this sheer, SPF 15 powder on after a lazy day at the beach – just enough color to keep me from appearing totally bare-faced but still sheer enough to maintain a breezy, beachy vibe.

Available in Light/Medium and Medium Deep for $28.50 each from Clinique.com.
