Mented Cosmetics Out of Office Bronzer ($22.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a deep brown with subtle, cool red undertones and a matte finish. It was richly pigmented where a little went a long way, though the powder itself wasn't overly powdery, so it could be used with a lighter hand or less-dense brush for more buildable application if desired.
The consistency was soft, slightly drier, which made it harder to apply. It was more reactive to natural oils on the skin, too. As this is a shade for bronzing on very deep complexions, some of the issues I had blending it out and clinging to dryness, settling into my skin, etc. should be less visible as the color of the bronzer approaches the color of one's complexion. The way the powder sat on my skin was an issue I experienced across all the shades in the range, including the lighter ones--very much reminded me of what I experienced with Charlotte Tilbury's Airbrush Bronzers (which some really seem to love, so while true of all products, your mileage may definitely vary!). This shade showed signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear.
