Can’t decide between MAC MSF I have it in Medium Deep and Nars Laguna.
I’m personally a big fan of NARS Irrésistiblement. Very natural and adds the perfect glow!
Giorgio armani no 1 bronzer =)
I have always been a fan of Benefit’s Hoola…
I second this!
Benefit’s Hoola is my fav too
For me it’s Chanel Bronze Universel.
Definitely SMashbox Suntan Matte.way better than Mac…has no shimmer in it which I like and gives you a warmed natural look.
well I’ve only used a couple, but I really like MAC Golden Bronzer.
suntan matte smashbox
I use MAC Enough Said as a bronzer, but I’m generally not a fan of bronzers.
thats my favourite <3
Nars laguna. It’s light enough for my pale skin, applies evently and doesn’t look muddy.
I really like Clinique’s Sunkissed Bronzer, I have gotten so many compliments on my skin when I wear it and it looks so natural
NARS LAGUNA
I really like MAC’s Bronzer in Refined. Next to it would be the bronzer from I Nuovi’s Facescape in Malibu Barbie
I have recently stumbled on Tarte Park Avenue Princess bronzer and loved it. I also like MAC MSF Sunny by Nature and Global Glow.
CARGO bronzer in medium. It goes smoothly and it gives me a nice natural glow.
Absolut MAC´s bronzer in Golden
Mac Bronze matte!
A new favorite for me, and a brand I’ve never used before: Laura Geller Blush-N-Brighten in Sunswept. Pink and bronze swirlled together. Looks great on my complexion. Love it.
Nars Laguna. It gives the perfect bronzy color, not too orange or brown, and it has glitter that just makes your face radiant.
I want a matte bronzer and was thinking of Mac’s Refined Golden. Is it any good?
I want to try refined golden too
i really like it, but its not matte. its very shimmery (it has gold glitter)
For a good MAC matte bronzer go with MSF Dark, its like Refined Golden but no shimmer.
My Bronzers: MSF Dark (matte) and Refined Golden (shimmer) both are awesome
Ah! This is a toughie! NARS laguna, MAC MSF in Warmed or MSF Natural in Dark.
Nars Casino
benefit 10 is soooo pretty.
the instructions say not to mix the two colors but it looks best mixed.
it’s the only bronzer i use often on my fair skin.
I second this, and I mix them as well to give a lovely sheen to the bronzer. Makes it a perfect colour for pale skin as well!
One that I really don’t like is Nars Laguna – it’s muddy, hard to blend, and just not pretty. I am liking Stila’s bronzer in shade 02, and I used to use the Body Shop bronzing beads all the time. Do they still make them?
YEP! I looove Stila’s bronzer. It’s matte, and fairly inexpensive. It gets the job done beautifully and naturally. I use shade 2 as well.
Terracotta de Guerlain
i can’t believe more ppl haven’t said this! it has been THE cult bronzer for years! love it!
Yes!!!
My fave too!
I always get anyone I know who is travelling to pick it up for me as its not available in the country i reside in ;(
Nars Irresisteblement (sp?). I like bronzers without shimmer.
This one is perfect for light skin tones.
i am a little obsessed with bronzers and try out many to find the oerfect one! I still like Benefit Hoola and i aslo like the entire guerlain terracotta range!
Refined Golden it is
MAC in Refined
Last summer was my first time using bronzer. I picked up Stila Sun bronzer W/SPF 15 and I love it!! It protects and gives you such a natural glow!
Mac’s refined golden.. doesn’t hurt that mine is from style warriors and I love the animal print on it
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer. It’s matte, pigmented, and smells yummy!
my fav as well!
Hmm… I’ve got 3 faves! Smashbox Bronze Lights in Suntan Matte, Nars Irresistiblement, and Illamasqua’s Bronzing Duo in Glint & Writhe
Benefit Hoola!
mac golden
I have natural red hair and am very fair. I love MAC So Ceylon mineralize skinfinish, it is the perfect color for me.
Dolce & Gabbana bronzer in #3 Sunshine
benefit hoola! it is PERRRFECT!
no one likes the stila bronzer??
I do! And someone else did, too.
NARS LAGUNA all the way! It’s so hard for me to dub a product as HG but this one is PERFECT!
NARS Laguna and MAC Golden
MAC’s golden bronzer and Guerlain’s Blonde, both lovely for NC20:-)
NARS Laguna! It doesn’t look orange and gives me the perfect sunkissed glow!
LORAC Tantalizer when I want a nice glow for an evening out, it looks very natural. The Stila bronzer in Shade 02 is great too.
Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer is my HG bronzer;
no glitter and smells delicious!
Im gonna have to try refined golden :0), but currently Im loving nars laguna….only at night because of the shimmer (but still love it) for daytime or when I dont want shimmer I love benefits hoola and/or the balms bahama mama,they’re matte btw.
nars laguna
Giorgio Armani no.1
I am curious nobody mentioned Too Faced Bronzer in SUN BUNNY.
I’m a NC 40 and its really gorgeous on my skintone! The same can be said of Too Faced Bronzer in BEACH BUNNY as well.
