    This is one of the best bronzers i've found. Not orange like most other bronzers i've purchased. Quite pigmented so it is important to use lightly. Can be a little too dark for pale skin (wintertime for me) but during the summer i use it frequently!

    I like bronzers as blush. they add some much needed colour and a little shimmer. This particular bronzer is a little more matte, and looks muddy in the box but seems to adapt once put on. I received this in a collection available at Christmas, with some eye cream, some mascara and something else I don't recall, and have kept using both the eye cream (it's potent) and the bronzer.

    Pros: Perfect colour for my fair skintone. I am usually the lightest foundation colours with a yellow undertone and this bronzer looks amazing on my skin. The colour is light, but buildable to create the perfect look. The package is cardboard which I like because it is biodegradeable. I also like how the packaging is deep so I don't have to worry about getting powder everywhere. The brush it comes with is soft and allows for light application (although I have a different brush that I use). I love that it is matte, I'm not a fan of shimmery makeup in general.

    Cons: Expensive (~35$), not much product at all for the price. Packaging could be much nicer for the price.

    While I really love this product and how it looks, I think I might look for a cheaper dupe in the future, it is a bit too pricy for me. If they gave you more product for the price, this would probably be a new staple in my makeup collection.

    The main thing people look for when searching for that bronzer is to avoid looking orange. Orange yells fake, fake, fake! Wearing this bronzer, you will definitely be far from fake, and close to a "yes, I did just come back from a trip to the Caribbean." This bronzer is perfect. It's matte, which is not common in a bronzer, so it really appears natural on the skin. In addition to this, it can be used in contouring, and even as an eyeshadow colour. The price and the tacky appearance of the box can cause you to hesitate, but there is no need as the product does deliver. I have more of a fair complexion, and it still gives me that sun-kissed glow. It lasts a long time on my skin as well. It comes with a little brush, but I don't find it that great so I use my own face powder brush, however it is good for contouring. All in all, this bronzer is extremely flattering on any skin tone I have found (as long as you like that glowy look!)

    I have very pale skin. A light dusting of this is all I need. Smells nice and is soft.

    I love this bronzer I have been using it for 5 years and I always need it. The colour always looks amazing the powder is soft and blends well. It looks great over a foundation and it fits any skin tone. It gives me a nice colour and I don't need to apply too much.

    Love this product! Makes my light skin look sunkissed without all the glitter that seems to be in other bronzers and it seems to be lasting a long time as a little goes a long way! I use a big round brush as the brush that come with it is not very effective!

    I love this bronzer, but for over 30 dollars it seems like a bit of a rip-off. The plus side is that it is nice and matte (which is perfect for me) and that so far it has lasted me over a year. The colour is flattering, but it's nothing too special. I'm sure it is more than possible to find a cheaper drugstore dupe.

    Have you ever looked in the mirror and said: "Ohh I wish I looked more tanned!" time for this dream to become your reality with Benefit's Hoola bronzer! Benefit's products are known for their quality and effectiveness and this bronzer was no different! Read on to learn why Hoola should be a part of your cosmetic collection...

    To begin with, Hoola is high quality. $28.00 might seem expensive for a bronzer, but hey, it is way cheaper than jetting to the tropics for your dream tan! Besides, take it from a good friend of mine who had a bad experience with a cheap bronzer (yes she turned orange!) "spending more means the company is confident it will work." she says. It is true. Benefit knows that Hoola is a product that you can see results from, so they don't have a prob with pricing it at its value.

    Furthermore, Hoola is an awesome bronzer because it gives you the glow you have been dreaming of! Unlike cheap bronzers that just turn you orange and shinny Hoola is a matte bronzer and gives you a subliminal tan that looks totally natural! Let's face it we all want that just-got-back-from-Cuba tan and with Hoola you get that look!

    To conclude, this bronzer is one I would completely recommend! The next time you are in the market for a fabulous bronzer check out Benefit's Hoola it made from quality materials and it will have you skin glowing year round!
