Beauty Tip Tuesday: Favorite Bronzer of all time!

Do you ever find a product and immediately start looking for rooftops?!  


Well, I want to sing the praises of this product far and wide from every rooftop I can find!  Though I suppose this blog will have to do :-)


NARS Laguna Bronzer - $33
purchase here

It's as if this bronzer gives an instant glow! Think J. Lo.

This bronzer is a tad expensive, but a little goes a long way.  It is finely milled...thus it stays on the face better than any other bronzer I have tried.  It has a very slight shimmer, but hardly noticeable and certainly office-appropriate (it's more of a very slight sheen than a sparkle).  It blends incredibly well and is unmatched in contouring.  I mix this bronzer with my powder foundation and blush and the look is seamless.


Apply with your favorite large powder brush.  Just make sure the head is large and the bristles are dense.

  
Just a quick warning - the Laguna color has some red undertones, so it may not be the best for every face.  If you have more beige undertones, try NARS "Irresistiblement (desert glow)" color for a lighter shade.  

Speaking of Make-up, stay tuned this week for an exciting announcement for another fantastic giveaway!!  Hint: could you use a few more beauty products?  

So, do you wear bronzer?  If so, what is your fav?

I was checking this out at Sephora this weekend - didn't end up buying as I don't use bronzer too often. Stays on my consideration list, however. ;-)

Sounds like a great bronzer! I'm currently using one by covergirl.
I'm a new follower =]

Thanks for this tip! I'm really excited to try it out. I'm a bit obsessed with my bronzer, I use Laura Geller's baked one. It's a swirl of many different colors and I'm really happy with it. But, I would love to try something new!

I basically can't leave the house without bronzer. Right now, I have one from Jane Iredale I really like. I prefer to wear natural makeup whenever possible, and hers fits the bill!

I'm obsessed with Smashbox fusion soft lights bronzer. I've been using it for years! I'm very pale naturally and it's perfect for my skin tone.

I use the same bronzer and love it!

I've been wanting to try this bronzer but I've been holding out due to the price. Thanks for the awesome overview though.

I actually don't wear bronzer or a lot of makeup in fact, but I definitely will try it out since there's so many good reviews on this one!

I just need to bite the bullet and get this! I'm obsessed with NARS blushes but I've never tried the bronzers before!

@Ly and Kelly - I know it is super expensive. But a little goes a long way...

@itsawant - that is hilarious! We both got NARS on the brain :-)
