Do they still make this? I love this product for my purse. It is awesome. I love it for the summer to touch up my face here and there. I will definately buy this if they still make it but I heard it was discontinued. This is a light shimmery powder and I think it works wonders and it is quick and easy with the brish right there. A great product!

I agree with the rest about the packaging. I unscrewed mine and poured it into another bronzer I had. I only use a very small amt I shake it upside down and with a brush pick up what was on the lid of my container and swipe my cheeks, nose, jaw and forhead.
I agree also that color is not all that great, as long as you don't get a lot of it on it won't be too orangy...
I have had this for a very long time and as little as I use daily will still have forever. so really the price wasn't all that bad considering it will last me 10 years...

I really wanted to like this product, and apparently it's/was a great seller for Lancome, but I'm not a fan at all.
While the mechanics of the "pump and apply" are as bad as you'd expect, I'd be willing to overlook it, if it the bronzer wasn't so damn ORANGE! ... and sparkly... and all around terrible. Now granted I'm pretty fair (NW20), so bronzers tend to be a little more fake looking on my skin, but this stuff is the absolute worst out of anything I have ever tried. And I've tried a lot of bronzers.
There was another Lancome bronzer that I had that was terrible as well -- not sure what the name was since I gave it away to a friend -- but it came in a compact and was two-toned. BAD. And the friend I gave it to is olive skinned, and she also complained of the orange tint.
For a good bronzer try the Guerlain Terracotta line.. absolutely amazing. This line of bronzers has been around since the 80's I believe, and it's award winning and their best seller. With good reason...

I received this in a swap. The built in brush is horrible. When I "pump" the bronzer to get it on the brush the product comes out the opposite end :/ Thank god you can unscrew the top. I dumped it into my V/S bronzer because the color is not that bad...it's just the brush itself that sucks. I can see why she had this up for swap I definitely wouldn't buy it again.

Not a fan of this product. The built in brush is good in theory, but it just doesn't work. To load the brush, you press the button on the end, voila. Not exactly, however. Either no powder at all comes out or vast quantities comes out, making me look like an oompa loompa. I'm afraid to use this on my face any longer, but is more forgiving on the body.

This, as other reviewers have stated, is a great idea: bronzer with a built-in brush. It has too many quirks though. I bought this and after turning and shaking, no product would come out! So I unscrewed it and tapped a little out on the brush and found the color of the stuff (once I actually applied it) to be very orange and filled with shimmer. For a pale girl like me this simply did not work. Add that to the cumbersome brush and the price and it's just not worth it.

This is a good idea. It comes with a brush attached. Too bad it doesn't work. The bronzer either shoots out of the brush or nothing comes out. The bronzer itself is very orange. It's thick and difficult to blend into a natural look. I like the shimmer and the smell.

This is a horrible reddish-orangish-sparkly bronzer. It made me look like I got sunburnt under a tanning bed (orangish-red, hideous). I'm not even pale, I'm olive skinned and naturally a little tan. It's too sparkly. The packaging is ingenouis though, which is why I gave it 1 lippie. The product itselfi is horrible though. Will not be repurchasing.
Note: I could see this looking good on african-american individuals, with skin like Beyoncé's or Halle Berry's for example.

It's ok. It has a nice texture and goes on easily. It can look a bit muddy so be careful.

It's not so bad, but also not that good. If I put a little bit on the cheeks it leaves a golden glow, but if I put this on my whole face it's way too much orangy and shimmery, not nice. It's beautiful using it economically on the neck and chest though. If you use too much of it, it's just ugly.

This product is a little difficult to use, you must use very sparingly as when you pump the brush a lot comes out. I would recommend clicking it only once onto your hand and using just that tiny bit on your face. Otherwise it can look too orangy, or else you can just wipe the excess off and it give you a nice glow, esp on dark or tanned skin. Good packaging for traveling as you don't have the worry about the brush getting dirty.

I LOVE THIS!!! I have a naturaly tan complexion with olive undertones and this makes me look lovely.It is great for a night out especially because of the shimmer and the packaging is soo portable. I am addicted to this bronzer and would buy this again when i finish it.

This product isn't bad overall. The packaging and concept is fabulous, this would be great for travel and/or touchups. However, on me the color was strikingly orange, not the golden bronze I had hoped. This went back to the store and I will not repurchase. I suggest trying it on before purchase, it may not be so orange on others.

I just bought this to get the gift and I haven't tried it at home yet, but at the counter it looked wonderful. Didn't look orange at all on me, and I'm pale. The brush is convienient, but a tiny bit hard to control sometimes. Good for travel.

I love this product. Fabulous packaging! This is a staple in my makeup bag. It gives a nice, natural touch of color with a little sparkle in it. I have used the same one for two years and there is still lots left. Love!

The color is a bit too orange for my pale complexion. But I love the packaging of the product...it's so convenient! I can easily slip it into my purse for touch-ups, without having to carry around a separate brush for application. I don't think I'll be buying this product again though. At $35, it's not worth its price.

I must say I was disappointed with this product. It looks like orange dirt particles on your face. Even with a flawless fake tan I'd hate to say but this product did absolutely zilch for me. THe only thing I have found it good for is to highlight my cleavage.
