Khroma Beauty Endless Summer Matte Bronzer

Well, the Kardashian's are at it again with their Spring/Summer 2013 makeup offerings!

 

 

The Khroma Beauty Endless Summer Matte Bronzer is just that...a bronzer...but it really isn't totally matte. It has the slightest bit of finely milled shimmer. I am okay with that, but it really is not accurate advertising. It comes in a .52 oz large plastic disc and is thankfully rather large. Suggested retail is $14, but Ulta is carrying it for cheaper at around $8...I have no idea why, or they severely messed up my transaction. I am not complaining!

 

This bronzer has three shades, a fair color, a slightly orange bronze and an actual bronze color. Swirled together they are supposed to give a nice bronze glow.

 

 

Things I am happy about:

This is not too dark or fake looking like the Kardashian's real tans.

It has a nice texture and feels good on my skin.

 

Things I am not happy about:

It is more of a glow than a bronzer. And I really wanted a bronzer.

It is a bit too warm for my skin tone.

 

Fans of Khroma Beauty will love it (I am hit or miss on the whole venture, but I am still curious) and fair girls looking for a light luminescence will love this. However, it does contain talc and mica as the first two ingredients and it is not wallet friendly unless you get lucky like I have.

 

 

I am not sold on this as matte or a bronzer, which were the two reasons I bought it :(

What is your favorite matte bronzer?

Physicians Formula Bronze Booster

Okay, so I will admit it, I have wanted one of those bronzers with the cute little bronzing beads forever!

So I used my Ulta birthday coupon (look for it if yours is coming up!) and got this. Also, Physician's Formula is 40% off at Ulta until Sunday, so hurry up and get over there!

 

This is the Physicians Formula Bronze Booster Glow Boosting Sun Stones in Light to Medium. It retails for $14 and is a large gold and brown plastic case that houses the stones, a puff, and a brush for application.

 

Aren't they so cute?

 

This is for someone with fair to medium skin that wants a bronze toned glow. This is also for anyone who already has a tan from the beach or pool and wants to prolong it. The ingredients in this product enhance the tan, prolong it, and nourish the skin.

 

 

You can apply this one of two ways. Either use the brush and swirl it in the stones, buffing it on your face, or use the puff to pat and swirl.

 

 

The effect is beautiful, but there is not a lot of color. You can build it up and it will still remain relatively sheer. It gives a nice, healthy glow, but not really a bronzing effect on me, so I am a bit disappointed. I will have to wait and see how it works when I do have a light tan.

 

This is a good quality product. I love the packaging, the amount of product you get, the cute factor, and the good-for-you ingredients. To it's credit it does market itself as a bronze BOOSTER, not a bronzer, so it is my fault for thinking it would give me some supermodel glow.

What is your favorite bronze enhancer? Do you use self tanner or will you be using a product like this for a glow?
