    I got this product for free during a promo at Rexall and I am absolutely in love. It's not at all orange (at least not on my skin), matte and the perfect contouring shade for my skin tone. I also...

    I'm surprised this doesn't get a bigger outpouring of love. Bahama Mama is the bronzer/contouring product I've been looking for forever - it has zero shimmer and not a lick of an orange undertone....

    I have very fair skin and find this color is best for contouring. I love that it's just brown- no gold, no shimmer, no ORANGE!! YAY! I just don't like that it's on the expensive side and in a...

    This is HG status for me. I like this even more than NARS Casino, which I also have. This is a matte, true brown-toned bronzer. I like to use this to contour as well as all over my face and neck...

    I'm not sure what brush to use with this to make it look good - it just looked like a muddy mess that needed a lot of blending. I think maybe a skunk brush could be the only thing -otherwise too...

    I like that this bronzer is actually a true brown color and doesn't have any hint of red, orange, yellow, or pink undertones. So I would rather call this a contouring powder since it's perfect for...

    This is just like a solid brown or taupe matte eye shadow. It is very sheer and it did not look very healthy on my NC 30 shade. I like my bronzer to have a hint of gold in it and this lacked all...

    I love the fact tht this bronzer is matte which makes it ideal for contouring, but because I am fair I have to be extra careful with application (it is very very pigmented!). If I overdo it it...

    I love this product, and I'm medium-light, golden olive toned. Works well as a contour powder. When I'm lazy, I swipe this under cheekbones, and I'm out the door. It's not a taupe color that...

    Yes this is a dark matte bronzer, so pale skinned people should give it a miss or it will look muddy. Medium to dark skins will appreciate the high colour pay off, as you really don't need to swirl...

    I use a large fluffy brush and one swipe and blend all over my face. Most of the time I use two swipes just to get some color. Yes it does look muddy at first but you have to play with the color....
