e.l.f Studio Bronzer

The packaging is great it's nice and simple. I like that there's 4 tones. I didn't really like using it though, it didn't really bronze as well as I'd hoped for. The colour payoff wasn't too great. Didn't transfer to my skin that well. It was quite shimmery too, so..good if you like shimmer. The price was great and it is an ok bronzer but probably best for paler complexions.

I'm one of those people who LOVE bronzer, I have warm-toned skin and even in I like to keep a light bronze glow about me. I purchased this in 'Warm' off the ELF website for half-price and figured at such a steal I couldn't go wrong.

The packaging of this is similar to other products from the ELF range in that it's a matte black compact with a mirror. The size makes it perfect for storage and it's sturdy enough to take away.

The bronzer has four different shades that have a slight shimmer to them. They look really great in the package however I did find they weren't that pigmented. I like to apply this using a kabuki brush to swirl all the colours together and bronze my face. The colour payoff isn't that great so you do have to build it up a bit more but I found it does give just the right hint of colour to create a nice, natural-looking glow to my skin.

This suits me perfectly as an everyday bronzer in winter as it's more subtle than others I have and is perfect when I don't have my summer tan. At the price it really is a bargain even without the colour payoff and I would repurchase, and I would recommend this to those with fair-medium skintones wanting a more subtle bronze.

I love bronzer especially in the Summer months when you are wanting to highlight your tan :) I felt this was a good bronzer but DON'T apply too much or you'll end up looking like an orange :O

I have the Golden shade and felt that it was super shiny so only a small amount applied is best. Think i will try the matte bronzer next time

The application process is easy, applied with a bronzing brush, it applies evenly onto your skin.

I found that the price of the product is well-priced and affordable, was only $12.00 which i think is very well priced for a bronzer :)

The packaging is simple, yet appealing. A matte black case, with a small mirror inside, perfect for when you are on the run!

I recommend it, but only in the Summer months when you have a golden tan and are able to add a little shine to your skin, otherwise i would recommend a matte one during the Winter months.

I think like most elf products this is good for it's price. I like that the colours are seperated and each can be used for different purposes. I did find that it is not as pigmented as other bronzers I have used and would recommend it be used for a more natural contour or bronze

Once again ELF doesn't let me down! This is my everyday Bronzer. It gives me just the right amount of colour to wear over foundation or just a BB cream.

I love the packaging! Its so sleek and professional looking and its so sturdy that I have no second thoughts about putting it in my makeup bag that goes in my purse.

I am a huuge ELF fan. They make great products at affordable prices but I do have to say I am not in love with this bronzer.

I use bronzer on the daily so when I purchased this from K-Mart I thought I had nabbed myself a bargain! The colour does not transfer well at all - I did not see any difference once I had applied it. Super disappointing outcome but for $5 not much of a loss.

I got this cause my friend kept raving about it (ended up selling her mine) i got the golden one i found it quite hard to get it to show up enough for my liking. Might be better for someone really pale. Im ivory though so unsure of that. It was very light so it be a great natural basically nothing bronzer if thats what your after. I also pretty sure this clogged up some my pores around cheek bone areas as i found i had a few popping up not long after using/wearing this product and since ive stopped ive noticed they have gone.

I have run out of this product at the moment, but I guess that just goes to show how much I like it. I love that the colours all blend together really nicely, which is great for when I am doing a rushed make up. I often would use this bronzer to highlight after I contoured my face, as there was a little bit of a shimmer to it. I found that the texture of this product was really great, and that it applied evenly. Which is great for ensuring you get no horrible lines, and an unblended mess.

amazing as a higlight , only downside is that its pressed so densely , pigmentation is amazing and is right up their with marylou.

When I saw the swatches online for this product I knew straight away that I wasn't going to be using it as a bronzer. I prefer my bronzers to be matte but the shades are not ones we haven't seen before however the combination of colours really drew me in so I pressed ADD TO CART hehe.

I bought mine from the ELF Cosmetics website via Shipito for about NZD$5.00 and that's absolutely crazy for a product with sleek sturdy packaging, a decent size mirror and 4 gorgeous golden shades (tan, peach, apricot and taupe). All shades have very fine shimmer and a beautiful sheen whether applied individually or swirled together.

A blush brush or angled brush can fit nicely into each segment without disturbing the other shades. I notice that there is a kick up of powder when I swirl the product but I can't really complain because the price point is just too good for what we already get and you'll still be able to achieve a lovely warm golden glow.

I suppose if you're going for sunkissed-just-got-myself-a-nice -tan look you could get away with using this as a bronzer but just note that once you hit the sun you'll be shimmering in all those places. I swirl all the shades together and use it as a blush topper when I want that sun kiss look while using a matte bronzer for the rest of my face. As a highlight I only use the apricot and peach because they show up well on my already chocolate skin - I do tend to go in with a heavy hand but that's just how I like my highlight.

The longevity of this product is quite good; it lasts me a good 6-7 hours with setting spray and then the colour begins to fade away while the shimmer remains behind. This is not an issue for me because it's a blush topper. When it's highlight however I tend to be more cautious of how well I place and set it with a finishing powder. I would happily recommend this for those on a tight budget.
