It had rich color payoff in a single layer, which wasn’t as it was intended–it was supposed to be a buildable product, but I had to work to make it buildable by using the lightest touch and a feathery brush.It had a smooth, velvety consistency that was finely-milled and slightly denser without being heavy or too powdery on my skin. This shade blended out better than the other two that I tried in the formula when it came to blendability over bare skin (or liquid foundation that wasn’t set or matte on its own). It stayed on well for eight hours on me before it started to show signs of fading.Top DupesFormula OverviewIngredientsTop Dupes View Swatches View All DupesSephora Los Cabos (P, $17.00) is lighter, cooler (95% similar).Tom Ford Beauty Terra (P, $70.00) is cooler (90% similar).Physicians Formula Light Bronze (P, $14.99) is more shimmery, cooler (90% similar).Fenty Beauty Inda Sun (P, $30.00) is darker (90% similar).Wet 'n' Wild Queen's Land (LE, $4.99) is more shimmery, darker (90% similar).MAC Canyon Dreamin' (LE, $30.00) is more shimmery, darker (90% similar).Colour Pop Spectacle (LE, $8.00) is lighter, warmer (85% similar).Urban Decay Naked on the Run Bronzer (-, ) is darker, brighter (85% similar).Charlotte Tilbury Lightgasm Bronze (LE, ) is more shimmery, lighter (85% similar).Benefit Hoola Lite (P, $30.00) is lighter, warmer (85% similar).View SwatchesFormula Overview$9.99/0.34 oz. - $29.38 Per OunceThe formula is supposed to have "buildable" color that "blends seamlessly" and has "long-wear." The powders have a velvety, finely-milled texture that was denser, so there wasn't a lot of powderiness in the pan, but it was fairly blendable. The denser, more matte powder aspect of this product made it easiest to apply over powder foundation, drier skin, or just-set foundation. If my liquid foundation was still drying down or didn't dry down (dewy finishes!), it could stick too strongly to certain areas without diffusing or spreading as readily elsewhere. They were quite pigmented, too, and to build them up more gradually required using a very light hand and a less-dense brush (like a highlighting or fan brush) instead of a more typical, large-sized bronzing brush. The formula lasted eight hours on average on me.Browse all of our Milani Silky Matte Bronzing Powder swatches.IngredientsTalc, Zea Mays (Corn) Starch, Zinc Stearate, Dimethicone, Mica, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate, Caprylyl Glycol, Silica, HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer, Nylon-12, Hexylene Glycol, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Diisostearyl Malate, Lauroyl Lysine, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Gardenia Taitensis Flower, Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium Sorbate, Flavor.

Nancy T Medium-Tan, Olive, neutral undertones. Combination skin. »These Milani bronzers sure do pack a pigment punch! Having just watched Tarababyz Saturday Haul video last night, (a Saturday night tradition, BTW) she said the same thing about hers. That because it’s not a buildable formula, it can go “muddy” very easily. I’ll just stick to the ones I have already that I do love using!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Sounds like a good plan, Nancy!
