Bronzer Rec

I'm debating on getting Nars Laguna but am not sure it will work for my skin tone. I am pretty fair skinned, blonde hair, blue eyes and without some kind of Bronzer/ blush look so washed out. Was wondering what you guys thought of the nars or had any other recs. Something that won't make me more oily or break out is needed too. Also I'm open to a subtle shimmer. Thanks :)

Re: Bronzer Rec

  • I wear and love Nars Laguna, I'm more olive-skinned but think that Laguna works for most skin tones.  In the summer when I am tan I bump it up to Casino.

  • I used to use Laguna but recently switched to Smashbox Bronze Lights in "suntan matte". I absolutely love it! It's totally matte which i like because I can add shimmer with a second product if I want, or use it as a matte contour color. My skin tone is medium/olive, but for you I would suggest the "sunkissed matte" shade which is the lighter of the two.

    It's so nice, and bonus - it's cheaper than NARS;) 

  • I like Nars Laguna, Bobbi Brown makes a good one too, it is called Aruba.
  • I use the NARS laguna too but I have a slightly different take on it as I use The Multiple, instead of the powder bronzer.  There's a tad of shimmer to it but absolutely not shiny or glittery at all.  I use a sonia kashuk blender sponge to apply it where I want it and it's fantastic.  In the winter I get pretty pale as well and it's always blended very nicely. In the summer, I can just layer on a tad more if I want it and it looks great.  I know it's pricy but I have a feeling that thing is going to last FOREVER.
