NARS Casino Sunkissed Bronzing Cream ($38.00 for 0.67 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark brown with subtle, warm red undertones and a matte finish. It had buildable coverage from medium to mostly opaque (two to three layers) that applied evenly to bare skin and blended out without too much effort, though it wasn’t the most blendable formula I’ve worked with. It was easiest to work with over bare skin or over a lightly dewy foundation.

The texture was lightweight, thin but denser and firmer in the pot, so it had more of a velvety slide than typical wet-feel that one might expect a cream formula to have. It wore well for eight hours before fading noticeably on my skin.

Formula Overview

$38.00/0.67 oz. - $56.72 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "soft-matte" finish that "builds seamlessly" and goes from "cream-to-powder." It is scented with the brand's Monoi de Tahiti oil, which is sort of a beachy scent that was barely noticeable once applied.

The consistency was denser, though not thick, so it didn't have a very emollient feel to the touch, which made it easier to work with over various base products as well as bare skin. It was quick to dry down to the "soft matte" finish, so it was prudent to work one area at a time when blending the product out.

They had medium, buildable coverage that applied evenly and blended out without too much effort. The colors stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

This is a generous amount at that price point: contains 3x the amount of a Fenty Cream Bronzer. I would totally have gone for this if not for the included fragrance. I didn’t realize NARS started putting fragrance in their products.
