I'm so sad this great product is discontinued!
-08.29.12
Quick Take: luminous glow, natural looking
This is my favorite bronzer after trying a dozen! I have extremely fair freckled skin and most bronzers are too orange or brown to look good on me. This bronzer gives a subtle sun-kissed or gentle flush glow with a pinkish undertone perfect for my cool color palate. The color is subtle at first but buildable and also doubles well with blush. Though I still used sunscreen in other products also at the same time, I first picked this bronzer out because of the SPF which includes broad-spectrum UVA coverage, but I fell in love with the effect. After years of trying to find a natural-looking bronzer for my complexion, I can't believe Clinique is discontinuing it and not replacing it with a similar product. WHAAH!

Quick Take: natural looking, luminous glow
This is one of my favorite bronzers and has been for years! I'm so disappointed that Clinique has discontinued it. I will be buying up quantities to stock up! It gives you a sunkissed look with out even looking like you have make up on!

Quick Take: glowy, buildable, perfect, beachy
This gives me the perfect bronzy glow, I've tried so many bronzers but this is one of my favourites! I was scared because I'm so pale that when I bought it, it would make me look orange but it didn't!
Pros:
Perfect beachy glow
Buildable colour
Great for all over the face
Not orange
Not shimmery
Cons:
Do not use the brush that comes with it
Not the best for contouring

Nothing special
-05.31.11
Quick Take: ok
Honestly I was expecting more from the product but I was sadly wrong. It works but like stated on other reviews its hard to get color out and you have to keep applying. I find it makes my skin appear very shiny.More than usual.

Good Bronzer
-03.23.11
Bronzer does the job. The color of the powder is nice for fair skin, but is not easy to apply. The powder is pressed hard so I have to use the brush over and over again to attain the effect I like.

hmmmm..not sure
-03.17.11
Quick Take: shimmery, very light
Well it doens't make me break out or clog my pores at all, however, it doesn't make me look bronze. It has a greaseless shimmer to it that's really delicate, not over the top, and glowy and perfect... I'm keeping this product, but i'm still on the hunt for a product that bronzes well

Clinique Almost Bronzer
-02.25.11
Quick Take: effective, good value
I've never used bronzer before so i wanted to start with something fairly light. I have fair skin with pink tones and this bronzer is great - it's not too heavy and it has just a tiny bit of shimmer for a healthy looking glow. I can't compare it to any other product, but I'm happy with it.

I hate blush as they all seem to have a pink hue that does not work for my skin colourings so this is just what I needed

Great Light Color
-01.07.11
Love this product - I don't understand how there are so many different reviews. I am fair skin but like a touch of color in the winter. I use a large powder brush - swirl the product and apply. It gives the right amount of color - not too much but you can also build on it if you want. I am very happy that I purchased this product and hope that they do not discontinue it. I will buy a few and hang on to them just in case!

The shade is very natural looking and I like the product. However, it seems like I have to swipe my brush 100 times across the bronzer just to get a little bit.

Great, except for the brush.
-08.08.10
Quick Take: perfect color!
I am fair skinned and I bought the light/medium of this bronzer, and as long as I use a big, fluffy brush, I get the sun-kissed look that I've been searching for. The brush that they include barely picks up any color, making it almost impossible to apply the bronzer with. I recommend buying this bronzer, only if you have another brush to use with it.

Good bronzer! I love that it's two colors in it. If I want to go really dark during summer, its possible. And the lighter tone for winter time.

Nice color, but very light
-07.25.10
This bronzer goes on very nicely, but you need a fluffy brush to apply(not the one included). The color is nice, not at all orange, but very light. I am very fair skinned, & have to apply 2 times to get enough. In my opinion, though, it's better to be light handed with bronzer.

Nice, but color squares are too small
-06.21.10
A real bronzer needs to be applied with a good quality, fluffy, soft brush...not the one they provide. So it's impossible to pick on color or the other. I do like the results of just sweeping the big brush over both colors and putting it on. Maybe they should marble it like some of the mineral bronzers.

This bronzer didi not give any color at all. I have med. to light complexion, and I cannot tell a difference at all when I use it.
