This product is so amazing. I bought it last week and I basically just wanted a light powder to put on my face to even out my skintone. I wanted it to look as if I didnt have makeup on, and thats what it does! Its SOO light, feels and looks like you have nothing on. And it has a glow that does not makes your face look oily. Blends very nice on skintone
I bought the wrong colour at first, and only after trying it on at home did I notice it was darker on my skintone. But when I called the MAC store, they said I could bring it in and exchange it even though I used it:) because they send it back to the company.
I recommend for anyone looking for light coverage on their skin! however if you have more visibile imperfections/scars, I would stick to their liquid foundations

I've spent the last few months obsessing over bright, pigmented blushes. Just this morning in a big rush to leave the house (but not enough of a rush to not put any makeup on at all) I skipped the blush and pulled out my Sunny By Nature from my stash and did some quick contouring around my cheekbones. I forgot how gorgeous this orangey-bronzey MSF is. It gives a really nice polished glow that is not over-the-top.

I've had this MSF for 1.5 years and still have plenty to go. This is one of the few products that I own that I would repurchase if I ever ran out, but unfortunately it was l/e so if I ever so run out, the search with begin for another bronzer (with really big shoes to fill).

My HG highlighter and bronzer, I use this almost everyday on the upper part of my cheeks with the 109 or on top of my blush with the 129, it gives "life" to my face and it looks like a natural glow from within. I also own so ceylon which I find way too dark and unnatural for my skin tone, cheeky bronze is also nice and subtle but nothing gives me this "special" result as sunny by nature. I´m nc 20-25 for reference.

I love MSF but the bronzing ones are terrible for medium to pale skin. They get blotchy and "pill" (overlapping and building up with a mixture of skin oil and other product) and it looks TERRIBLE. Others, like Warm Blend, are beautiful on dark skin tones as a highlight. Not a good bronzer, will never repurchase a bronze MSF because the one I have in my kit will be plenty.

I will stick to this one very long time :)
at store, among skinfinish mineralize product, i tried almost every color to find perfect color match for my face. and it was sunny by nature. :)
i really like this one, i use this for contouring my face.

I give 4 luppies instead of 5, cause this has darkening effect,so I apply very small amount not to make my face looking tone down after a day

This msf with give you the perfect sunkissed glow if you use a light hand. It's fucking pretty. Foreal. It's like a peachy bronzy color. To bad it was limited edition. I didn't even know it was when I bought it.

I found this at my local CCO and I am in love!! I almost passed this by because I own numerous other bronzers and MSFs'. But, I don't have another one like this. It fives my face the perfect glow! No glitter....just glow. I have worn it everyday for a week!

LOVE THIS! At first I was kind of scared of it after reading all of the reviews on here, but I decided to give it a try anyway. I am so glad I did! I use this on the apples of my cheeks and blend up to my temples for a sun-kissed look. You have to use a veryyy light hand with this or else you'll look like an oompa loompa.(For reference, I'm an NC40) This is an HG product for me!

This is honestly just OKAY.... First of all you need to already have somewhat of a tan otherwise it's way to orange/red. What I do is blend it with my MAC Prep+Prime after putting on my foundation & it tones it down some. You have to be careful with bronzers... if you are fair skinned I don't suggest this one.

This is my favorite MSF. It doesn't give much color to my NC50 skin tone but it makes it look healthier. I'm actually looking to purchase a back up of this. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a natural looking bronzer without shimmer. It has enough sheen to it to keep it from looking flat.

I really liked this color in the packaging and it looks great on all my friends with more of a tan, but on my it doesn't work. I didn't fully expect it too, most bronzey colors dont work on me, but I figured I'd pick it up anyway. I didn't give it a bad rating because I have seen it on friends of mine and it is a beautiful color, just not on me

This is one of my favorite MSFs from MAC. There isn't the same shimmer in this one like the other ones but I actually like it that way. It gives me a beautiful tanned glow for summer and in natural light, I can see the slightest golden sheen thats very flattering. Of all the MSFs I own (and I have a handful of them), I've never worried about getting a backup because I figure I wouldn't use them all up but I knew that I would need a backup of this one because I don't ever want to be without it. The best time to use this would be spring and summer.

I think the problem with this MSF is that some people were hoping that it would give the same shimmery glow as many of the others.
If you are looking for that, then Sunny By Nature is not for you.

Its more of a matte color than it is shimmer, although it does have a hint of a glow. I am able to use it as a bronzer and it works beautifully. If you are able to come across one without a lot of gold veining it can even be dusted on as an all over color if you are tan or deeper skin toned. If you are extremely fair, it might be too orange.
I love this MSF and bought backups. I'll probably never get to them, but thats how much I like this MSF. I dont' wear much MAC foundation but just for color reference I am NC44

i really dislike this product. it looks muddy or the skin and the colour pay off is more tango than golden. i much prefer gold deposit as it leaves a soft sunkissed gold colour to the skin which catches the light. overall i dont recommend sunny by nature id rather save my money. x

I absolutely adore my Sunny By Nature mineralize skinfinish. I'm not sure why I got it, as I generally loathe bronzers on my pale skin, but I think something about the texture of the product was much more appealing than the other MSFs in my collection. This goes on very satiny, due to the combination of mostly matte powder with subtle shimmery veining. On me, the color isn't too orangey, or too brown, just the perfect amount of bronze to wake up my pale skin, giving it some color and glow. Though I am NC15 in MAC, using this with a light hand and my 187 brush is a match made in heaven. I think this color could be used on a wide variety of skintones, depending on your application methods. Overall, a wonderful bronzer MSF for those who don't like a ton of shimmer on their cheeks (I'm looking at you gold deposit!!). I also think the name is adorable. And I don't think I'll ever run out, there is a lot of product included for the price!

Its a great bronzer for people who are a medium/dark skin. But I'm a NC25 and against my skin it looks too orangey. It doesn't give me that just healthy glowy look unless you blend it in well. And it smells a little weird when I first got it almost like the MAC studio sculpt. Other than that, it's a pretty good bronzer.

I'm disappointed. I bought my msf months ago and was very happy with it...until I noticed it looked NOTHING like the picture on the website. Mine is a light brown with gold veining with absolutely NO pink at all. None. I stared at it for like 10 minutes, trying to see if there was just a little pink veining and the score was 0. Ugh. SO disappointed now that I've finally realized my msf is complete crap! I think the pink veining makes all the difference, instead I have the gold veining with no pink in sight. I recently read a review that said their msf had bad veining and even included a picture of it! It looked a LOT like mine with all the cons listed above. The person said to look at the marbling on the product before you buy...too bad I couldn't because it was handed to me by the lady behind the counter. $27 spent and I didn't really get what I paid for. looks nothing like the picture on the website. sigh, oh well.
On the bright side, it does add a glow to my face :) BUT, the color comes on strong since there is the absence of pink veining. It does give your face a warm glow but don't use too much and make sure you get a good msf too and don't make the mistake I did. =/ I will continue to use mine but now I'm more aware of what to look out for, and now after reading this review, so are you! :)

This is a fantastic bronzer against my NC42 skin. There's hardly any shimmer and gives me a great all over glow. I always get asked if I had a chance to enjoy the sun when I wear this. Little do they know, it's all bronzer. I love it and kinda sad for others as it's limited edition and harder to find.

I am so happy the MA at my local MAC convinced me to purchase this MSF.

I live in the Caribbean so everyone looks bronzed already but this MSF adds the most beautiful glow to my NW43 skin. It is the perfect makeup finisher for me.

I can add a little to my cheek bones, use it to blend out my blush, use it in place on blush. This just works for me.

Although not my favourite MSF by MAC, I decided to give this product a 5 because of its versatility and texture. As previously mentioned in other reviews, depending on how you apply it this shade can work for a variety of skin tones. I find that on darker skins it's a fantastic bronzer and gives a great healthy, flushed look to the cheeks, without being overly shimmery or glittery. I am very pale myself and originally balked at using it assuming it would be too dark, but when applied with a light hand it gives me a very pretty but subtle sun-kissed glow, and due to the minimal amount of shimmer can also be used for contouring (if you're careful!)

I selected that I'd buy this again, but truthfully I doubt I will ever be able to use the whole thing, a little does go a really long way.
