I received the full-size stick cream bronzer as a gift, and have been in love with it since. I was looking for a bronzer that would be faster to apply than a powder (I love Benefit's Hoola for when I do my makeup properly), and this fit the bill. Super creamy, super pigmented, super blendable, it's not too orange for someone like me (light skin/yellowish undertones) and can work as a contour (with bronzing capabilities, of course). The only potential issues are its emollient consistency (some might find it TOO blendable, but you can easily dab more on to supplement the colour), and how it feels like a couple uses (though more than a couple now, I've been using it every other day) have already started to eat away at the product. I haven't kept count of how many times I've used it so far, but I think the rounded top of the bronzer is starting to become a little bit flatter. Though this may be my own fault due to excessive force. If it matters, the bronzer smells a bit funny (like silicone? smells like some of the primers/foundations I use), but the smell is not strong. In terms of wear time, I have only been wearing it over sunscreen and nothing else so far, so I'm not sure how it'd hold up with a proper base. But I am confident that I will remain perfectly bronzed nonetheless, as this has been the case even with my sweaty face pretty much every day. I have been enjoying this product a lot so far, and its performance has deterred me from saving up for the Tom Ford cream contour (someday!).
