costs $3, not the BEST, yet not the WORST...i'm fair-medium skinned..i swoop this bronzer gently over my cheeks for a nice glow ,which is right where i need it, instead of having to apply this bronzer all over my face because its too shimmery for that and will appear fake looking..sometimes i even apply a bit over a light pink blush..i would buy again, but anyways this product is DISCONTINUED

Broke me out and clogged my pores :( It must be the shimmer b/c I have never had any problems with W&W matte bronzers. The minute I switched to Tahitian Tan.... my face, cheeks, and chin broke out big time.

Great coverage and color, I like the sheen it provides. I hate the flimsy packaging and brush though!

I really like this bronzer and it's very pigmented so i always apply lightly. I think it's a good dupe for mac refined golden bronzer and it's less than a third of the price. I prefer this than mac because it doesn't look muddy on me like refined golden does. I got 2 of these and it works great as bronzer, blush, and even eyeshadow. Definitely check this out.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bronzer...it is amazing on my nc43 skin...i got the bronzer for a dollar during a sale at rite aid, but its definitely worth the 3 or 4 dollars it is at its regular price...i have several wet n wild blushes and bronzers and they are all amazing products...the packaging isnt pretty, but its functional...definitely worth a buy...definitely my hg bronzer.

This is SUCH a good bronzer. I got it for 99 cents (yes, 99 cents!) on sale at Rite Aid. I read in a magazine that this bronzer is a secret of makeup artists so I had to test it out, and for the price it couldn't be beat. I like it better than BE warmth (more natural imo) and it rivals my favorite Rimmel bronzer but it's only half the price. It does have shimmery specks in it but it's not the first thing you notice. I used it today with my L'Oreal Bare Natural, Wet n Wild Blush and Concealer to test to see if my cheapie products would hold out on my oily skin. I am pleased to say that they did hold out and looked so much better than my BE! I even got compliments on my skin; my mom noticed and so did one of my friends. This bronzer definitely warmed my skin up and gave me a glow. I can't tell you how much I recommend it. The brush is useless for an overall bronzer, though. But that is NOT a big deal compared to the value you get with this product. Just use another, bigger brush and you will be fine. LOVE IT!

Love it! I use it (lightly!) as face powder on my medium brown skin, over Posner's Cover Creme in Medium/Deep. The combination of the two camouflages my terrible dark spots from eczema and pimples. And gets me lots of compliments. When I'm wearing it, I find that people think I'm FIFTEEN years younger than my nearly 40 years.

...And it has been discontinued, too.

I remembered reading some reasonable reviews for this product and FINALLY found a walmart that carried it (appearently not all of them carry wet & wild products). This specific shade is far too dark for my NC37 complexion (it's very pigmented which is a great deal) - so when used with a VERY light hand, it turned out to be a fantastic blush (i could still use it as a bronzer if i used it very lightly). What makes me give this stuff 5 lippies? WELL it stays on the entire day - 7am untill the wee hours of nightlife. Let me tell you, nothing stays on me well. I'm one of those people who constantly touches my face. I was so impressed i went back and bought it in every shade and also bought all their blushes (why not? They're only about 2 bucks!) Don't take me for an inexperienced makeup fan - i've worn makeup since the 3rd grade and am now well into my mid 20s. I've also tried every brand under the sun from Guerlin, to Mac, to Clinique to Covergirl - you guess it, i've probably tried it and Wet&Wilds bronzzers/blushes give you the *biggest and best bang for your buck* enjoy!!

This bronzer is a gorgeous shimmery, golden brown. It gives a very natural glow. No orange at all. It's a realistic sunkissed glow. Awesome for the price.

This made me (NC35) very orange. Gross, and the texture is horrible, it made my skin burn and looked cheap, when I looked at my face, I could tell I was wearing cheap makeup. No, I will never purchase cheap makeup again.. Not worth it.

got this for TWO DOLLARS at meijer. the packaging is so insanely tacky but i don't care! the dinky brush is useless. i use my mac 187 stipling brush for this and it looks delissssssh. i usually use this as a blush and it makes me look so much more alive! will definitely repurchase this if i ever run out.

I LOVED this bronzer! I tried the bali first, because it was the only one in stock, and it ended up being wayyy too orange. This one is so nice! it really looks like a tan. not orange, and also not shimmery, which a lot of them are! not a bad thing though. I can dust it over my cheekbones or nose or anywhere really! sometimes i even put a little on my eye lid for a nice bit of color. I was suprized how nice this bronzer was.
Their powers are some of my favorite i must say though.

I am a newbie to bronzers, and so far all of the bronzers I've tried makes me look like an oompaloompa. Tahiti tan is probably the least oompaloompa-esque of the bronzers so far, but it still looks a little bit orange on my NC20/25 skin. I think this bronzer would work very well on someone a little bit darker (at least NC30) and/or more warm-toned. Formula-wise, the pigmentation is just right and there is a tiny bit of barely-noticeable glitter. It's also very smooth and fairly easy to blend. Overall, I am impressed with the quality (especially considering the dirt-cheap price), but the colour is not right for me. I will keep this around because I think I might be able to get some use out of it in July/August when my skin gets more tan, but will be on the lookout for another bronzer that I can use all year.

i used to stay away from WnW, because they were too orange (like 2 of their 4 blushes). well, this doesn't apply orange at all. it's the perfect shimmery brown bronzer--it looks like i just came back from the beach.update 3-27-07: this color isn't right for me. yeah. it looks fairly natural when applied right, but i've still gotta blush and highlight like crazy to make it work. i can't really complain that much because it's so inexpensive and it really IS a great product, but i've since tried another bronzer (see my review for Black Radiance Radiant Glow), and it looks more natural on me, it has a built-in highlighter, the pigments in the Black Radiance is stronger, both companies are owned by Markwins so there's no beef with product-loyalty, and it's only a dollar more than this bronzer. so... i'll probably use this up on my eyes as a natural wash, but won't repurchase.

Great product, wnw gives you a variety of bronzer powder shades to suit your own skin. Tahitian tan was just the right brown for me, not orange, not dirty. Works for nc 35 skin. Could be orange for someone lighter.

ok here it goes. I love wet n wild bronzers but I usually always buy the original medium - dark version. I went to wal-mart and they had ran out of medium dark so I decided to try this color.I have black hair and eyes my skin is light with a bit of yellow undertones, this color makes me look a bit orange no matter how little I put on I absolutely love to use bronzer and don't leave the house without a little of color but I guess this is just not my color as you can probably tell by my profile pictures I used a bit more than necessary I'll admit but with the medium dark version I actually can use as much as I want and it still doesn't look fake or orange.

I use the Wet 'n' Wild Bronzzer in Tahitian Tan and I absolutely love it! I had been using MAC's "Golden" bronzer and I liked it for a while, but the shimmers really started to bother me. So until I could make it to the mall to find another bronzer, I decided to give a drugstore brand bronzer a try. I am SO glad I did. I purchased this for $2.47 at Wal-Mart and I don't even think i'm going to look for another brand. For such a CHEAP price, you get a lot of product and such a beautiful color. The color is similar to my MAC one, but without a lot of the ugly shimmers. There ARE a few in this one, but I barely even notice them. It matches my skin beautifully and blends with ease. I have that golden tan that I like without the orange look of a lot of bronzers. A definite MUST BUY!! UPDATE: Can't stand it anymore. Wayyy too shimmery. I used Origin's bronzer now!

This is a very good bronzer, I think there is better out there though but for now, this is what I'm using. I like it because it's natural but I have to use a light hand because if not, it makes my skin look dirty. I like that this isn't orange. I think this has a slight shimmer to it but it's not very noticeable. I apply this to around my nose, temples, and under my cheekbones. I think this is great paired with All Over Shimmer. I would consider trying the other WnW bronzers but the display is usually out or only the light/med one is left and I think that's too light for me. I don't like the packaging, the seal runs along the side and is hard to remove. I ended up cracking my case when I was trying to break the seal. The brush is also too slim.

EDIT: I've been using this for a really long time, I've probably gone thru 2 of these. It, however, no longer works for me anymore. It just looks really orangy brown on me, doesn't look natural, and takes a long time to blend. I often have to put pressed powder on top of this to blend it out some more. I liked this for a really long time and for some time, it was my HG because it was cheap and worked. I'm not in the market for something that looks more natural and subtle.
