I like that the color is 'adjustable'. So if I use a self tanner I can go a little darker. This is a great combination of color for my face. ...I was a little worried that it would be a little too warm for me(got medium based on the product photos) but it ended up looking beautiful on me-I’m a light skinned sunless tanner addict. The formula feels very smooth and almost cream like but applies like a powder.

What it is: A matte, buildable, visible-texture-blurring trio to shade, bronze, and sculpt your face—for a touch of color to a fully contoured look.


Highlighted Ingredients:

- Magnolia Bark Extract: Helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles
