Best bronzer please

[CandysKisses]

I'm looking for a sun kissed look by means of a bronzer.

I've never used one before so hoping someone can give me advice on what to buy please?

Which is best? Or are they all pretty standard?

Benefit Hoola

They tend to be glittery so I use a normal face powder in a much darker shade instead.

I never could see why bronze = shimmery.

Bobbi Browns one is good, it's matt so very natural looking. Bourjois delice de poudre is also very good. It's matt as well.

L'Oréal does a fantastic matte bronzer that has a 'healthy' glow rather than an orange one - I'm pale as anything and it's my go-to. (Only about £8 too!)

Benefit Hoola liquid is fab - matte so no shimmer. It looks really natural.

Nars in the shade Orgasm. Pricey but has a fab rose gold glow on your cheeks!

Another Benefit hoola fan

Is the benefit hoola a liquid? Is that more like foundation?

I don't wear foundation so need something to go direct on my skin

Hoola definitely. It's a powder.

Hoola is much much too dark for me. If you're pale it won't be for you either. I use the Bronze Goddess Ester Lauder one in the palest shade. Very natural and comes in a lovely big compact. Lasts years. Sali Hughes writes well on bronzer for beginners etc.

Benefit hoola has a light version now too

The Charlotte Tilbury filmstar bronze and glow is v expensive but I love it. Subtle bronzer to which you can add a highlighter if you want. Lovely packaging too.

The light Hoola is brilliant, perfect for paler skin - I really like the original but it's too dark for me.

Hoola does come in a powder but I use the liquid. I'm pale (usually ivory or the like if choosing a foundation) but a little of the liquid goes a long way, especially if you use a blender.

I love Isadora bronzer in matte tan - not an ounce of glitter or sparkle in it. It's huge and lasts forever. They also do a smaller size for £16 I think.

Geurlain bronzing powder is also good and is sparkle free. However is doesn't really justify the £36 price tag compared to the price of Isadora imo.

For a cheaper alternative Rommel also do a sparkle-free bronzer. Though bizarrely this is often by Rommel fake tans in Boots rather than at the Rommel make up stand.

I've never been overly fussed on Hoola.

This Rimmell one. You can also get a dark or medium matte too I think

I like the boots 17 shimmer bricks!! Especially the pinkish toned one as the brown/bronze-y one is too dark for me. Bloody well sold out everywhere I go now. The shimmer is just right for me not too cheap and sparkly looking. Apply lightly with a decent kabuki brush.

All this despite the fact I think the Bobbi brown shimmer brick is sheer hell!

Another vote for Hoola, I'm fair but it still looks really natural

Hoola comes in a lighter shade now: Hoola Lite

Oops just seen it's been mentioned already!

Yup - another vote for Benefit Hoola - it's great!

I should hope so after an orgasm 😂

Nars orgasm is a blusher! Don't use it as a bronzer, you will look v odd! Hoola is good but v dark IMO. I really like Chanel Les beiges powder, it comes in various shades depending on your normal skin tone.

I've just ordered the benefit hoola. For those that use it - do you use the brush that it comes with or something else?
Also do you just highlight or use it all over your face?
