this product is a dry oil dual phase product - the clear oil sits on top of a goldish bronze powder until shaken up. I use it not really as a bronzer, but to give my skin a bit of colour and radiance and it is brilliant for this. It doesn't look promising as you first apply it as the gold looks really blinging, but rub it in and it gives the nicest radiant sheen to your skin especially good for enlivening a tan. I really like it and think it would last ages. You can use it on your body and hair as well.
