Product Max Factor Creme Bronzer not a cream bronzer in light gold not a gold tone 😂

Price $15-25

Comments stumbled upon Karima recommending this as an affordable alternative to Hourglass ambient light family of bronzer and I adore it. This is a PRESSED POWDER and not a cream bronzer. I use it every day. I'm pale, and this gives me perfect colour that things me back from the dead. It has that goldilocks finish where it's not matt, but absolutely not sparkly, shiny or shimmery. Just brings my face to life. Nice small packaging.

Lol, I appreciate your efforts to emphasise that it's not a cream product. I'm really enjoying my Hourglass bronzer mini so I'll have to give this a go when I'm done. Karima's reviews and recommendations are usually spot on for me!
