Makeup Geek Tawny Bronze Luster Review, Photos, Swatches
Tawny
Makeup Geek Tawny Bronze Luster ($22.00 for 0.31 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark brown with subtle, warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had good color coverage in one layer, though it was easily diffused and sheered out if desired. The consistency was smooth, finely-milled, and almost cream-like without being too dense or too softly pressed into the pan. The new, powder bronzing formula is supposed to give the skin a “sun-kissed glow” but doesn’t say much else. The powder sat well on the skin and had a subtle, natural finish rather than totally matte but did not read shimmery. It wore well for eight hours on me before fading slightly.

This would look great on darker skintones!
It should work well for medium and medium tan skin!
I think that this would be a perfect bronzer for my skin tone. I’m a NC45, and I’ve been having a hard time finding a suitable bronzer for my skin tone without a lot of shimmer.
It might! Makeup Geek also has one deeper, in case you want something darker than this one.
Too dark and tan for me but I bet it will be a popular shade!
There’s one lighter shade, so maybe that will work better for you!
Not sure how I missed this one! It looks just perfect for medium tones, especially if they have any olive going on as this one also has a bit of an olive cast to it.
Is it darker than Urban Decays beached bronzer in bronzed? It’s my favourite bronzer but too light for summertime.
