This is for crap. Pretty in the container but I could hardly get any product onto a brush. I swirled and swirled and tested on my hand and saw nothing. So, I crushed it up which would probably work in a better container but was just messy in the cheap plastic container it comes in, so I tossed it. It's a total waste of money!! New York Color..........you can do better than this!

I inititally bought this as a Bronzer for my face however there was not any color payoff so I started using this as a body shimmer. After my favorite body lotion is absorbed, I brush this Bronzer onto my shoulder, arms and sometimes my legs. It provides a light shimmer glow which looks beautiful and soft.

Where do I begin... waste of my money. I was so excited to purchase this product. I was browsing through Wal Mart for an affordable bronzer because the previous one I was using was way too dark for winter use and the NYC Sun N Bronze caught my eye. I loved that there was multiple colours that would blend out more evenly into my skin. As soon as I opened this, I swatched it on my hand and nothing showed up. I decided to use my white powder brush and try again, this time using it on my face.... Once again nothing showed up. This was such a waste of my money because it's not pigmented at all. All that shows up on my skin is a bunch of glitter. Definitely don't recommend it for anyone with anything other than fair skin tone. Won't repurchase in the future. I will stick to my Rimmel Bronzer!

Really good bronzer! It gives me just the right amount of color with subtle shimmer and a nice glow. I just take a powder brush and swirl all of the colors around and then brush it all over my face. It is not too powdery. It does not clog my pores or break me out either, which is good since I have sensitive skin. I would buy this again!

I am a blue eyed NW10 (NW20 when tanning from a bottle).

This is a great bronzer for PPP. It's honestly like a lighter version of Tarte's Park Ave. Princess (my HG bronzer). This will not show up on people who are shades N20 and darker. This is a very light, soft, luminizing peach shower. Reminds me of when I used Cover Girl's blush in Natural Glow as a "bronzer" to add color to my pale NW10 skin last winter (when you are that pale, you get creative for bronzer lol). Having it in individual strips of color means you can use it as a multi tasking product if need be, like highlighter with the light taupe middle strip, and eye shadow with the peach strip. Great value, great product.

Good for my fair skin. This is much more natural and prettier than TF snow bunny, sun bunny, or chocolate soleil

If you are super pale, like me, and most bronzers make you look like your face its dirty, this is a product you may appreciate. This particular shade combination comes off very natural on very fair/pale skins. Because its 3 shades you can blend, you can "customize" a bit with how much of each color you use. If I just swirl them all together, it makes a fantastic warm toned blush. If I don't use the peach shade, its an excellent bronzer. The ivory shade makes a great highlighter too so it becomes multi-purpose. Yes, this product does have shimmer to it however I don't find it to have more than other more expensive products do. If you prefer matte bronzers than no, this is not going to be for you. At 43, I need a bit of healthy radiance, which this gives me, so I am fine with it. My only real complaint is the packaging as it doesn't always stay closed but keeping it in a makeup bag, and not loose in my purse, seems to be working.

I LOVE this stuff. Normally I am a little hesitant with NYC products because they are so cheap and I'm not really familiar with the quality of them. I bought this on a whim because the colors caught my eye - a peachy pink, shimmery nude, and a bronze. I don't use too much of this stuff - so the shape/design on the powder is still pretty much intact. I love the color that it gives - I normally take a small blush brush and make circular motions in the pan and then apply lightly to my cheeks and a very small amount to my nose. I get a slight bronze color, but more of a peachy gold. This is pretty shimmery but not too bad for my taste. It looks absolutely gorgeous in the sunlight, and the color is perfect for summer because it doesn't look too overdone. I hope they never discontinue this!

i dont think this is such a bad bronzer am super pale and this does a good job of making me look a little more alive. it is a little shimmery but not totally disco ball. i like how its individual strips of color so sometimes i will use some of the colors individually for maybe a blush, highlight or even an eyeshadow. for five bucks its not bad, the only reason why i wont repurchase is because it has sort of a funky smell and i know theres other products that will do a better job. also am not a big fan of glitter so am going to go matte next time.

I have picked up a bit of color this summer and I still got a good amount of bronze from this product. The color is actually very pretty and indoors seems to be a very natural glow. The issue that I encountered with this product was that the second I went outdoors I realized my hands and face were covered in shimmer!...so much for natural looking. I'm not sure when I will be able to wear this.

This definitely is not a bronzer, it's more like a very weak highlighter. I've tried it wet and dry, piled it on, put it over real bronzer...but it barely shows up. It has a very light gold sheen if you look in the right light, which is pretty, but not worth it when you have to cake it on. It also has the sparkles like Revlon's Photofinish foundations have, but only seem to show up at night when there is bright light. This was a huge waste of 5 dollars.
