Suntan Bronze

Cover FX Suntan Bronze Monochromatic Bronzer Duo ($38.00 for 0.51 oz.) contains a deeper, red-toned brown with a matte finish and a medium, reddish-copper with a lightly metallic finish. Both shades were blendable, long-wearing, and easy to work with, while the matte side had more semi-opaque, buildable coverage compared to the shimmery side, which was opaque in one layer.

Suntan Bronze (Left)

Suntan Bronze (Left) is a medium-dark, reddish-brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable color coverage with a smooth, velvety consistency. The powder applied well to bare skin and blended out with little effort. What I really was impressed by was that it had a natural matte finish–matte but not dry or powdery, and it didn’t darken unevenly with natural oils from my skin as some matte powders can. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before fading visibly.

Suntan Bronze (Right)

Suntan Bronze (Right) is a medium-dark coppery bronze with warm, reddish undertones and a soft, sparkling sheen. It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer with barely-there, faint micro-sparkle over a more luminous finish, though it was one of the higher-shine shimmer shades from the various duos. The texture was smooth to the touch, soft without being powdery, and denser without being stiff or difficult to pick up and blend out on my skin. The color stayed on well for eight and a half hours on me before I noticed any fading.
