description

An illuminating bronzer with Photoluminescent Technology, featuring bronze pigments that deliver a natural-looking, sunkissed glow while flaunting depth and dimension. Ambient Lighting Bronzer’s sheer, airy formula sweeps softly onto skin for a healthy-looking, radiant finish. It’s formulated with Photoluminescent Technology, featuring optically transparent particles that transform the look of skin by manipulating and refracting light to emphasize your best features. The optically transparent particles allow for seamless blending and color transitions. The powders, blended by hand using an advanced miscelare technique, offer the perfect balance of pigments in a gorgeous pattern. Use this bronzer alone, or paired with Ambient Lighting Powder for maximum control to create depth and dimension—or even use it for a subtle contouring effect.

I only recently started getting into bronzers over the last year or so, but I'm really picky about what I buy because I'm so pale. I've found a few that I really love, but tend to gravitate to ones...

I got this bronzer as a gift from my bff. I got the lighter shade and at first I felt it might be too 'orangey' on my lighter asian skin tone. It's really nice as it gives a subtle sheen that comes...
