What’s in the Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess 2024 collection?
For 2024, we have the Limited Edition Bronze Goddess Flora Verde collection which includes a new fragrance, the Flora Verde palette for cheeks and eyes, and a limited edition Shimmering Gelée for Body. This runs alongside the permanent Bronze Goddess products with bronzers, highlighters and fragrance:
Bronze Goddess Flora Verde Palette for Eyes and Cheeks 2024 Shades
This is a really pretty palette that follows a similar format as the Lumiere palette from last year, the Desert Heat Eyeshadow palette, the Azur Summer Look palette and the Nuit Summer Look palette from previous years.
The Flora Verde Palette palette includes a mirror inside a limited-edition case and is a 9 shade eyeshadow and highlighter palette.
Shades include:
1. Brazilian Coast (Matte finish; a soft cream)
2. Rio Sol (Shimmer finish; a warm gold tone)
3. Flora Verde (Shimmer finish; a golden olive)
4. Nightshade (Matte finish; a flawless flat black)
5. Passion (Shimmer & Overall Highlighter; a fiery copper-gold tone)
6. Samba (Shimmer finish; a fizzy Champagne)
7. Viva Pink (Demi Matte finish; a bright, deep pink)
8. Heat (Shimmer finish; a coppery sunset red)
9. Café Brazil Nut (Demi Matte finish; deep olive brown)
This is last year’s Lumiere palette:
Here are those swatches:
NEW Bronze Goddess Shimmering Gelée
This is a brand new body highlighter with a shimmering finish. It is a lightweight non-sticky, clear, pearlised gel formula.
Here’s a swatch:
This shot probably doesn’t do it justice. You need to imagine it on tanned shoulders and shins!
Bronze Goddess Healthy Glow Powder
This is limited-edition face palette with blush, bronzer and highlighter in one. It really reminds me of the now discontinued La Mer bronzing compacts with the mix of all the complexion enhancers in one.
Like the La Mer, you can use them individually, or blend them together for a healthy glow.
Above are the swatches blended together.
There are two shades to choose from:
- Sunrise – terracotta bronzer, peach blush, rose gold highlighter
- Sunset – sienna bronzer, tangerine blush, yellow gold highlighter
Bronze Goddess 2024 Illuminating Powder Gelee Shades & Swatches
Like last year, there are three illuminator shades and we have Modern Mercury again yay.
- 01 Heatwave
- 02 Solar Crush
- 03 Modern Mercury
In case you’re unaware, Modern Mercury has quite the Estee Lauder history. It was a limited edition highlighter back in a collection that launched in 2013. It was a ground-breaking formula of the time, but once the collection was sold out, MM was no longer available.
Then, in 2016, Victoria Beckham chose it to be part of her debut VB X EL collection and everyone went completely crazy over it and wondered why it has never been made permanent.
Now that Victoria Beckham has her own beauty range, we had to say goodbye to Modern Mercury again. The Bronze Goddess 2020 collection brought it back and so we had it for the past few years too.
I love this outer packaging and the pan design. Here are the swatches:
I really enjoy this highlighter formula from EL. It uses unique prisma technology which gives such a gorgeous glow. It is a tri-brid of liquid, powder and gel and it has such a beautiful smooth finish, delivering a soft sheen that illuminates the complexion wonderfully.
Bronze Goddess Matte & Glow Bronzing Trio
This was a new format in 2020, with three different powders and remains part of the permanent Bronze Goddess collection.
We have two matte powder bronzers (medium and deep) and one luminous highlighter. You can use them individually, or blend them together. Here are the swatches:
This is the perfect palette to use with a big fluffy brush, swirled all over the pan to warm up the complexion and get it glowing.
Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess 2024 Fragrance Collection
Of course we have the classic Bronze Goddess skinscent. I absolutely adore it and for me, it really is the scent of summer.
It’s like lying on the beach in a beautiful place surrounded by the uplifting scents of creamy coconut, soft vanilla and sexy amber. It will always be a favourite for me.
This year we also have the Flora Verde limited edition. Described as a Floral green fragrance with a Brazilian Gardenia accord surrounded by Coconut Water and Sandalwood:
- Top notes – Italian Bergamot, Coconut Water, Orange Bigarade
- Heart Notes – Pink Pepper, Brazilian Gardenia, Ylang Essential Oil
- Base Notes – Jasmine Sambac Absolute, Sandalwood, Skin Musk
It’s a gorgeous, green floral take the iconic Bronze Goddess scent and I’m really enjoying it. It makes me think of an upscale beach holiday as Bronze Goddess always does, and I love the uplifting Bergamot in the top notes and the deeper smoothness of the Jasmine Sambac Absolute. Of course it has the milky coconut tones you’d expect from this iconic fragrance.
