W7 The Bronzer Review

I bought this instore from Makeup Direct in Auckland for $18 over 2 years ago and it was nothing special.

I'm not too sure I would recommend this for my pale skin friends since it tends towards the orange side and on me (NC42-44) it looked a bit reddish if not muddy.

The pigmentation is great so highly suggest using a light hand when applying, it's not powdery or chalky which is great because I don't feel like I'm wasting a lot of product. However there are better bronzers out there.

Packaging is cheap and the cover gets scratched fairly easily. I had to throw mine out after 6 months because the powder started cracking.

You can buy W7 products off NZSale so keep an eye out for that if interested because it's much cheaper.

I purchased this bronzer along with a few of the W7 eyeshadow palettes from the warehouse for $3.50, which I thought was a such an amazing bargain, how could I not. First of all the packaging it a bit flimsy and plasticy, but I do like the animal print and I like how you can see what colour the product is. I was definitely drawn to the fact that is a matte bronzer aswell. This product is very pigmented and you only need a small amount to start off with as it is very buildable. The colour (which is quite a dark bronze) is a perfect for my skin tone (medium/tan) and I love to use it as more of a contour. The only thing I do find is that if i apply too much it becomes hard to blend out and becomes a little patchy, so I definitely think its best to start off with a small amount and work your way up to your desired colour. Its an amazing product for an affordable brand and great for beginners or people on a budget. I would recommend to people with darker complexion, unless it comes in other shades.

Nice matte bronzer, I'm a shade 120 in fit me and this is a nice shade for me, I just can't use heaps as it looks slightly orange the more I apply. I use a powder brush and apply this to my forehead, cheeks, and a little on my nose to add some warmth and dimension to my face. It blends out easily, doesn't look caky and I find it very pigmented so I only have to use the smallest amount. Generous pan size so I imagine this bronzer will last me quite some time. If you're super pale I would probably not recommend this as it may be too orange for you.

My skin tone is medium to dark Polynesian, this bronzer is the best bronzer I have ever used for my skin tone, It is really hard to find a low cost bronzer for my skin tone and one that is good, I also use this on my clients and it comes out amazing every time. I once used bobbi brown bronzer worth RRP $90 and also a MAC $60 bronzer and none of these come close to how good this bronzer is! I always purchase from postie plus for about $7nzd
