one of my FAV sephora products!
-04.21.13
I LOVE this stuff - use it all the time, esp. in the summer. It lasts a long time, but I love it and continue to buy it year after year. Great deal! nice smell too. - lightly scented.

Review 4 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Perfection!!!!!
-03.06.13
Quick Take: shimmery, gradual, long lasting
All I have to say is WOW!!! I love this product! I really wanted the one I saw at Victoria's Secret! BUT it doesn't have enough shimmer, nor the bronzing effect! This one is perfect! And you get a lot of shimmer with one spray shot! You can rub it evenly all over your body!

Review 5 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
-02.23.13
Quick Take: shimmery
This is a great alternative to powders and self tanning lotion! I like the smell and it feels great on your skin. I have not noticed that it rubs off on clothes however I have not worn it with anything white. It imparts a lovely glow anywhere you need it - have not tried it on my hair though.

Review 6 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Shimmery
-02.23.13
Quick Take: shimmery
It did nothing to make me bronzed or any tanner like i was sort of expecting, but it does smell good and absorbs good, doesn't make you feel oily or greasy,it's essentially just a light shimmer, i probably wont buy it again only because I need something darker to make my skin glow! However I can't wait to wear it to the beach, i bet the shimmer will look fabulous in the sunshine!

Review 7 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
horrible!
-01.30.13
Quick Take: shimmery, didn't last at all.
it is shimmery but not enough for my liking, I have a fair complexion yet I don't feel like I received any "bronzing" at all.

Review 8 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
I love this!
-12.30.12
Quick Take: shimmery
I went into a Sephora store looking for the Michael Kors Leg Shine, and the sales girl recommended this. I figured it was so cheap I could give it a shot. It is very oily, and it moisturizes my dry legs as well as gives a sparkly glow. I like that it has glitter, but I did not find it obnoxious like some reviewers said. I have very fair skin, and I have found this product looks natural on me and doesn't make me look too orange. I also like that it is easy to blend in. And the smell is good and it complements the Micheal Kors fragrance I wear. I later got a sample of the NARS body glow and I really couldn't tell the difference between that expensive stuff and this. It even smells similar. I would recommend you try this next summer. It is the perfect complement to shorts and tube tops.

Review 9 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
bad just bad!
-12.26.12
this is just wrong the oil just sits on your skin and gets everywhere, the shimmer is more like glitter and the bronzer in it does not spread evenly it goes uneven and very fake looking! Very disappointed, DO NOT BUY! I would suggest instead sephora beach glow melted body butter- its amazing!!

Great product overall. Absorbs quickly so it doesn't get on clothes. I usually spray a bit directly on skin as well as into my palms and smooth over skin. I have pale skin and this always looks natural. Gives a touch of color and a gentle glow to make you look great.

nothing special
-12.08.12
Quick Take: shimmery
This bronzing oil goes on smooth and has a nice scent. In the description however it says you can spray on your hair and that is a joke. I did it once and had to rewash my hair cause it was a greasy mess. Will probably not purchase it again.

Review 14 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Shimmery veil
-12.04.12
Quick Take: shimmery, quick fix
This was an emergency buy for me. I was going to a evening wedding in a super short dress in November and wanted to feel comfortable in my own "sunless" skin. This totally did the job. I give it 3 stars because I would only use it as quick fix, not part of my daily beauty regimen.

Review 15 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Exactly what I was looking for
-09.27.12
Love the scent, and love the shimmer. I have a medium complexion and purchased this to wear during the summer when my skin is tanned. It blends great, and I am just sure to put it on before I put on my outfits so that I won't rub it on my clothes. It makes your skin feel silky!

This smells horrible!
-09.08.12
I cannot write as to the efficacy of this product because its scent is so powerful I immediately washed it off. If you are sensitive to scents, then avoid this product!

Review 18 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Too Glittery, never dries
-09.04.12
This is was to glittery for me. It took forever to dry and came off on everything I touched. I bought this hoping for a little shimmer and a little color, but this is way too messy. Since it takes forever to dry, it's also really hard to rub in and blend all the way. It might be ok for a younger gir on spring break or something, but for me, no way.

Review 19 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
Perfect shimmer!
-08.26.12
Quick Take: shimmery, long lasting
This I love. Not too oily, not too shimmery and doesn't look fake or orangey. Doesn't add too much color either which is what I wanted. Put it on for date night and it lasted through the evening! However... after my third use I did notice my shoulders broke out a little a day later which hasn't happened to me in ten years. Probably just my skin not used to the oils. Overall very good product for the price.

Review 20 for Illuminating Bronzing Oil
shimmering but is oily
-08.12.12
Quick Take: shimmery
gives a great shimmer but is too oily and leaves residue on clothes and anything you touch. Takes a long time to dry as well! would not recommend if you are looking for any bronzing effect only works well to add shimmer.
