I love this! Especially when I use it with my fake bake tan, sweeped over my face it looks lovely! Not so good when Im pale... looks a bit orangey but its part of my everyday routine, looks very natural and havent found anything as good as it yet!! Im always on the look out though! xx

I hate this bronzer. It is wayy too dark and unnatural for my fair skin and after a month or so the whole cake of bronzer has cracked and I now cannot put this in my handbag.I found that the bronzer had a really orangey fake looking tone to it and took a lot of blending to make it look any where near natural. Will definately not re-purchase, much prefer Benefit's Hoola.

This bronzer has an amazing color; however, I would not recommend if one has acne prone skin or even oily skin . I have oily skin and this product made my skin break out really bad. This product is not oil free

Gives you a natural, sun kissed glow. There is no orangey hue to it and the golden shimmer helps hide any unevenness in skin tone (if you have it) I apply it right under my cheek bones, on my temples, near my hair line, and under my jaw bone for amazing looking contours. A little light, shimmery blush on the apples of the cheeks, and on the brow bone and some mascara on the top lashes, and you're ready to go out on a sunny summer day.

I bought this product on eBay for 1$+ international shipping, and received it 4 days ago. Most of this time I've been in a vacation on a beach.
I must say that when looking at a mirror I've been happier then I've been for a long, long time: I'm wearing nice bronzers for a while now, but none of them had given me such a natural dark bronze, luminous look. I so missed the over- tanned me...
The first time I've used it I was afraid it looks too reddish, and not waterproof enough, but I've noticed Its color fades to a natural looking bronze tan, that STAYS.
The only (quite serious) down side of this product is its quantity: Using it as intense and often as I'd like to (over my entire face and body), It wouldn't last much longer...

This bronzer is very good value, as you get quite a large tube, and only need a tiny amount to make a difference. The colour is lovely (perhaps a tiny bit orangey), but the shimmer might not be to everyone's taste - it's probably better for using in the evenings, than during the day, as the sunlight really highlights the shimmer in the product and looks very unnatural! The product is quite dark, so fair skins could mix it with a body cream to get a slightly less intense result. Overall, a nice colour, and a nice quick-fix for pasty legs, but the shimmer isn't ideal.

i really like this! i am always on the search for good bronzers because I hate the smell of sunless tanners but i love the way they make me look! this is great stuff although it could be a tad darker but for the most part it is the closest i have come to finding that tan look without the stink! it goes on very smooth too and lasts a long time!

I am loving the fake bake self tanning lotion right now but this kinda disappointed me. I was after a more TAN bronzer for my face to really darken it and this made me look too shimmery and pink toned. Would be very pretty as a blush or dusted over a tanned decolletage. Price is ok NZ$33.95 but I wouldn't buy aggain as it wasn't the colour I was hoping for.

ABSOLUTLY LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!! Im a bronzer addict, anything to give me a healthy glow during the dull winter months!! Im always used to the orange look but with FAKE BAKE its a gorgeous bronzed, sun kissed look!! I bought this product over a year ago and its still on the go and i use it near everyday! Its very pigmented which means you dont have to use too much! I love the way there is a mirror in the compact too!
Its a tad bit of the expensive side to buy on its own (usually given away free with the tan!) but its so worth it, it is lasting me sooo long and my complexion looks so healthy when i wear it!

Like the reviewers before me, this is an awesome bronzer. Not too shimmery, not too muddy, just right. I'm in love!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! Of course I don't really use it as an all over bronzer because it's shimmery. However, I do use it as a blush and it looks fabulous. I have a dark summer tan 'Fake Bake' and this product is dark enough to actually show up! Plus I use skin highlighter, so this is just the right about of shimmer as well to go along with my sunkissed look. I can't stress how great this product is and for such a FABULOUS price!

I really like this product, I use it with the fake bake self tanner (which I absolutely LOVE by the way!) and it looks great! It gives me an awesome bronzed look. I use this all over my face, I don't think it's too shimmery, it just looks like my face is tan. I have had co-workers tell me my face looks like it's glowing and wanted to know my secret. Great product!

I got the bronzer 'free' with the Fake Bake trial kit. So as far as price goes, it was great! I really like the way it looked on my face and neck. It gave me a really nice glow that matched my skin tone pretty well. The only problem I had with it was after a couple of months of using it, it started to break my neck out. I don't if it was sensitivity to an ingredient or if it has oil in it. But overall, it was ok. I won't buy again due to the breakout.

I'd like to say I really like this product, but I don't. It's pretty good if you use it over a tan (real or fake) but on fair, untanned skin it looks a bit too orange. Maybe it's just my skin tone. I have yet to find a another powder bronzer that looks natural. Years ago I found one sold in a little clay pot with a cork that worked well, but it's no longer sold anywhere that I can find.

Great product overall! Not too much shimmer. Color is perfect! Not too orange, etc. Blend well and don't overdo it and you should come out fine. Brush sold with it was nice at first but gets a lil crappy, so i just use a MK powder brush! Awesome, too bad it's 20$ a pop each time!

I like this bronzer a lot. It doesn't sit on my skin wierd and it looks very natural. Not too shimmery which is good. Just very sun-kissed. My favorite bronzer so far but I haven't tried that many (only Mac and Paula Dorf)

I haven't been a big fan of bronzers, as most are too funky coloured (usually orange) and make me feel dirty. This one however, is really nice! It's got a slight shimmer which is undetectable on skin, just makes me glow. Very brown, but not dirt brown. Husband usually spots when I try fake tan or bronzer and teases me, but he didn't notice anything strange (this is a good thing). I still looked like me, but healthier! Word of warning, this is very pigmented and a little goes a long way, alot of time is spent on blending. This is the first bronzer I've really liked!

I'm usually not a big fan of bronzers, but I decided to give this a try. So far I'm pretty impressed !!! It gives you a golden glow, no orange face for me!!! I'm using this bronzer along with the Fake Bake line of self tanners & they really compliment each other. I will definately repurchase =)

This is one of the better bronzers I've tried. The color is a nice brown (not too reddish or orange). I use it on my face and body and it is highly pigmented which means it lasts for quite a while, but also means you have to spend more time blending. My only complaint is with the coarse brush they sell for it. I got mine complimentary, and tossed it. The hairs fell out and it was soo rough. But, you can opt to buy w/o the brush. I use a soft shiseido powder brush and it works for me!
