I've honestly never even heard of this company before lol. I RIS and wanted to give it a shot and I'm glad I did! I love the packaging, there's alot of product in it, and it's highly pigmented. I'm NC40 skintone but in the winter I'll get closer to NC35ish so I like to have a nice bronzer on deck. This is up there with my MAC bronzers! I wouldn't recommend this to ladies with a fair complexion, I could see it looking ruddy and dirty.

I am pleasantly surprised by this bronzer! I'd never tried an Arbonne product, so when my mom ordered a bunch of cosmetics from my sister-in-law, I figured it would be a cheap and fun way to explore something new! This is a highly pigmented (seriously: be careful with your brush, or you'll be in for burnt pumpkin disaster), rather dark and slightly shimmery powder. I use it for contouring, for which it works perfectly. I often use it when I am not wearing any other makeup, as this gives you a quick-and-easy sexy "made up" look without needed much else. It also lasts! I do find that it gets darker as the day goes on due to oxidation, and because I tend to get the oilies, the shimmer in this highlights that somewhat. I don't actually own this bronzer, but always find myself looking forward to stealing my mom's when I am at her house. However, I'm actually considering purchasing my own...just not something that I need to rush out and buy immediately.

Okay I was convinced when I bought this product that I liked the beautiful glow it gave my skin. I am very fair-skinned and I do not go to the tanning salon so I needed something that would give my skin more of a glow. This product did give me a beautiful glow but after wearing it a few times, I noticed that after I put it on, my face started itching. I also bought the big kabuki brush with it and after using it a few times, I noticed that the brush would shed its hairs all over my skin and I had to pick them off. Also, if you ever end up dropping the product like I did, it will break into a million pieces. It gives you a pretty glow but thats about it. I will not be repurchasing this product.

I go this at a yard sale it was brand new and had the big brush with it as well. I got them both for 8 dollars and when I came home and looked them up online I was suprised at how expensive they are especially the brush.
I like this bronzer because of the size its so big! Buut I really find it to be too dark for my skintone I dont really use bronzer on my body either as Im pale as a ghost and it would just make me look dirty or weird. Seems to be a nice bronzer but not my shade Im going to let my mom give it a go I think. As for the brush..waaaay to big to use on your face. I guess you could use it for applying the bronzer to your body..other than that its pretty useless.
===================================================
Ok I came back to edit this because I gave this stuff to my mom and I figured Id update. Shes darker than I am and she is in love with this stuff, Ill prob have to buy her some more when she runs out LoL. She even usues the big brush that came with it. I dont even think shes using her foundation or anything anymore she just sweeps this on and is on her way. So I gave it 5 lippies because even though it wasnt right for me it was still a great product and perfect for her.

I had a girl put this bronzer on my face at a Wedding show I attended. I purchased my own and I've used it every day since. I hate shimmery bronzers but this one has very little and looks so natural on my skin. I use the Sigma powder brush for application: I swirl the brush into the powder, tap my brush and apply it with light fast strokes. If I apply it any other way it looks very unnatural. Don't forget to blend well, and I also put some on my neck and jawline.

I gave it a 4 because the price is outrageous. I paid about $40 for this but I know it will last me a long time, and I believe Arbonne is not as accessible in my area so it may have been a little more to have it brought here.

Overall...great product. I will repurchase :)

this is the first bronzer that i have kept and use regularly.
i always hated bronzers on me, but this one turned me around.
i don't see any shimmer. i use a light hand with bare essentuals face brush (hate that brush otherwise), and its looks like i am glowing after a day at the beach.

This will last forever as long as you don't drop it! I almost cried when I dropped mine and it crumbled. I always seem to do that to my bronzers, and in my opinion they are the hardest to use once they are in pieces. This is the only product I order from Arbonne.

I love this bronzer! I have a big problem with bronzers looking orangey or dirty and this one does neither on my fair skin.It only takes just a little bit and it goes a long way! I barely swipe my bronzer brush over the compact and then I blow on it to get all the excess off. Its pretty with just enough shimmer. I know that bronzer is kinda a each to their own thing but if you are looking for a good bronzer this is the one I would try. I would however suggest trying it out before buying it since it is kinda pricey at least to me. The only thing I hate about this is if you drop it it will make a HUGE mess! It shatters soo easy and I'm clumsy. I do love the huge mirror though :)

I'm really happy with this bronzer-- it's a very neutral, universally flattering color, easy to apply sheer. Decent staying power...depends on the staying power of your foundation, though. It's not muddy, not orange (nor does it turn orange), not too shimmery, not too cakey and not too powdery. Enough of a glow and no "eugh" factor. It's a good size; you get enough product but it's still fairly portable. I like the mirror in the lid, too.

I got this as a Christmas present, and first swatched it on my hand. It looked beautiful. It was a present from my mom, who is so anti-bronzer. She said one of her friend invited her to an Arbonne party (hadn't heard of the brand, but I'm guessing it's similar to Avon), and she wasn't going to buy anything, but her friend tried this on her and it looked SO natural on her light skin. Coming from my mom, this was huge. She always thinks I look orange and I wear too much bronzer blahblah. I was expecting great results. I used this with my Sephora bronzer brush (which is what I have always used), and OMG what a mess. Even in indoor lighting, I looked fake, sparkly, orange. I had just spent so long on my makeup that I tried to keep putting light layers of loose powder over it to cover it up or tone it down, and that was hard to do. This was the worst bronzer I have ever tried. I give this 2 stars because I think I'm going to brave it again, and try this with a different brush (I also got an Arbonne brush for Christmas-not sure if the two come together or if my mom purhased them sepereately). I figure that since my mom swears it looks natural, and she tried it with that brush (longer bristles and more movement than my bronzer brush), maybe that will sheer out application and make me look bearable, or even nice? I would stay far, far away from this with a dense bronzer brush. Also, the compact is very nice and seems sturdy.

I have a medium complexion with dark brown hair and green eyes. I love using the bronzer as a blush instead, so do my mom and sister. It looks very natural, but adds a nice glow and lasts throughout the day. I wasn't thrilled with the kabuki brush, as the bristles were too stiff for my taste and it picks up too much powder. Maybe if you're using it for your body you will like the kabuki brush better. I prefer using a fine quality squirrel hair blush brush which gives me a much lighter and more even dusting on my cheeks. The bronzer is not too orange, but I can see how it might look "dirty" on people with fair complexions. In the winter I wear the 4N liquid foundation in the winter...if you're any fairer than that, it may be too dark for you.

I am a tanning junkie and I love this stuff! If you're like me and you brown up nicely everywhere but your face, Arbonne's bronzer really evens out your complexion. It also looks nice dusted over your neck, collarbone, and shoulders. Your teeth look whiter and your eyes look brighter when you have a bit of color to you, and this stuff does just the trick.

Way too dark for my fair complexion. Looks like I have a dirty face when I wear it. The only way I've had luck using this is on my shoulders, collarbone, and chest...and there it really does look lovely.
