I’ve been interested in branching out to cream bronzers for
a while but have been hesitant due to the oily nature of my skin. However, when
this popped through my door in a recent Joliebox it came at the perfect time as
my skin has been drier and dehydrated due to the colder weather. I’d never
heard of the brand before but the concept of the product intrigued me and I haven’t
been disappointed when I got round to using it.
Its appearance is reminiscent to that of the Nars multiple
sticks, but I haven’t actually tried this so can’t offer a fair comparison. It is a good size product which is great for
travel, with sturdy and sleek packaging which twists up and down to get more or
less product. The colour looked pretty dark in the tube but once blended in
properly to the skin it leaves a natural, healthy glow. I’ve been reaching for
this on days when I want a bit of colour but don’t want to wear a full face of
makeup, for example when I’m feeling under the weather. It’s very moisturising
with organic olive, coconut and jojoba oils so I’m not sure this would be that
suitable for me in the summer but at the moment it is perfect for the way my
skin is behaving. I think this would be best for normal to dry skin types all
year round but us oily skinned girls can get away with it in winter time too.
This beauty balm also contains aloe vera to condition and smooth – great for
sun or wind damaged skin. The product is 100% natural and 85% organic
ingredients as well as being free of any nasties such as mineral oil, which is
a big plus point for me!
Revolution Organics have described the product as a beauty
balm to act as a multitasker to be used anywhere you want some colour - think face, body and lips. This colour would be great for contouring, however I don’t do much of this myself and
instead use it for an all over glow. I rub a generous amount on my cheeks,
forehead, nose and chin and then blend it in thoroughly using a stippling brush
to give a light even colour. Considering how moisturising the product is the colour pay off is amazing and the pigmentation doesn't disappoint.
You can also purchase this product in the colours: 'Sunkissed' a coral peach and 'Blushed' a pink. It seems to be a Canadian brand but you can find this product on eBay or cutecosmetics (linked above). I've really enjoyed using this product as it
gives benefits to my skin while adding subtle warmth and coverage. As my first
step into the world of cream bronzers it has been a success and I’m interested
in trying out Chanel’s Universal Bronze.
Have you heard of this brand before? What do you think of
cream bronzers? xxx
