Quick Take: natural looking
About 8 months ago my face started to break out, which I had never experienced before. I thought it might be stress, diet...
But then I remembered I had bought some new bronzer right around the the time I started to noticed the breaks outs. I stopped using this product and within a week my break outs stopped! It has maybe 3 weeks since I have used this product and my face feels like its glowing again!
For me it wasn't the right fit, but it did have good coverage.
I returned the product and Sephora took it back with no problem.

Great bronzer, not too crazy about the packaging
-05.03.13
Quick Take: natural looking, hydrating, long wearing, good color
This bronzer is awesome on my NC15/ skin. It claims to be a golden bronze color and that's exactly what it is: a warm toned bronzey color. It's gives instant, yet buildable color and life to the skin. Before purchasing this bronzer I loves the idea of the sifter, now however, it is just an extra time consuming step by having the measure and sift out just the right amount of product as opposed to just dipping a brush into a pan of press ed bronzer

Great stuff!
-04.21.13
This was recommended to me by my sister. It's great because one can use it over makeup or alone to create a nice suntanned glow. It gives nice coverage & isn't super shimmery like many bronzers,, but rather adds a nice glow! Also, I like the fact that you can add as little or as much as you like & it seems to blend in easily with a makeup brush. Love that's its hydrating & therefore doesn't suck moisture out of your skin but at the same time doesn't give a "shiny" look. Great stuff, highly recommend it if you're looking to either add a little golden sun to your face or to accentuate
the tan you already have.

Quick Take: natural looking
I really like this bronzer but I prefer Smashbox pressed powder bronzer instead, its just easier and cleaner to use. I don't find this hydrating, as it claims though, its not drying either though.

FANTASTIC BRONZER
-02.08.13
1. This bronzer is hydrating for my dry skin and it doesn't make my skin look dry and cakey!
2. Everyday I can control how much bronzer I want to use by giving it a little twist. The only down part is if I don't use all the powder that I twist out. The powder gets all over the case, but I usually use all of it so it's not too big of a deal.
3. It's great for contouring.
GREAT PRODUCT!!!!

Quick Take: matte finish, natural looking
I am so glad I found this bronzer! I mostly use it for my neck and chest, so it's really important that I use a bronzer without any shimmer and this product is amazing! it blends perfectly and it's very easy to apply. It ran out much faster that I had anticipated though..

Best bronzer
-11.28.12
Quick Take: makes skin glow! very hydrating
I have tried them all! This bronzer is perfection! Its not sparkly or cakey&flatters all skintones( I use it year-round, even when my skin is paler in winter).Besides gving your skin a beautiful glow, it has anit-aging ingredients in it,so it feels so good on skin.A little goes a long way! Only one I use.

Returned for palette preference
-10.18.12
Quick Take: matte finish
For the days I had this, I did like it, but returned/exchanged for palette. Loose powder, hassle and time eater for me.
Plus, I'll note I have fair skin, so it is difficult to just get a minimal amount on your brush.

The Perfect Bronzer
-10.15.12
Quick Take: perfect
I can't say enough about this bronzer being that I have dry skin. It is truly the best. Just one tiny itty bitty problem and it's why I gave it 4 stars, but if I could give it a 4.7 I would have, lol The issue is you cannot take it in your purse as its a loose powder. but you really don't need to because it does last all day, sooo.... now that I wrote that it really is rather awesome.

Quick Take: simple and effective
This is the second time I've bought this bronzer. It's nice that it's matte. I don't always want to sparkle and it doubles as eye shadow for me often. Love the twist container and measured amount that is so convenient.

-05.25.12
Quick Take: amazing, great value, gradually build color
This bronzer is totally amazing. I love how you can twist the bottom to get the perfect amount of bronzer. It goes on gradually so you get the perfect sunkissed look! Also it lasts forever!

I love Smashbox products but this bronzer wasn't my color. I felt it made me look blah-zay.
