Powder bronzer - not glittery

8 replies

I have just run out of bronzer and need to order a new one. I don't like glittery ones and the Benefit one (Hula?) is too dark. Any suggestions?

I got a Lanchester one in TK Maxx; massive big surface (about the size of a grapefruit) but no glitter. It has a few different shades in it, including a puple one (which seems a bit odd but gives a nice lightness). It's really good actually. I also got a massive brush (hard to find!) which gives a more even and light coverage. Was pretty cheap (about 6 quid, I think).

Downside is that you can't try it out in the shop so bit of a leap of faith.

Have nice matte ones by Mac and Shu Uemura. Not necessarily bronzers but the tone gives my face a nice bronzed colour.

Was going to recomend Hula! I just bought it last week and am really plesed with it, and I'm quite fair. Have you tried it with a big brush? (not the one it comes with) The girls on the counter used a big brush and all over my face and neck...

Bobbi Brown do different darknesses and not glittery. Get it from QVC and you can send it back if you dont like it even if you have used it (30 day money back guarantee)
