Everyday Perfection

I have tried many bronzing powders before the MAC Bronzing Powder and will never again use anything but the MAC Bronzing Powder again. This is my perfect everyday bronzing to turn my skin from ghostly pale to someone with a bit of colour. Application was smooth and easy to apply especially with MAC's 134 large powder brush. The bronzer stays on my face for pretty much the duration of the day and it's a great day to night makeup. Due to the natural colour (and if you get fitted to the correct tone) it enhanced my skin and didn't make me look like a carrot face. The powder is really light so you don't need much and it doesn't clog up your pores. The one down side of it is the packaging doesn't really make it safe to travel with. Times when I have travelled with this in my makeup bag and it has smashed all the contents inside is countless. My tip is to put it in a snap lock bag so when it does break up then you can save the contents inside.

Tips: Make sure you use the correct type of brush to apply; there is nothing more tacky than bronze streaks.

Favourite Bronzer!

I have this in refined golden and this is my favourite bronzer ever! There are golden shimmers through it but you can't actually see this when applied to the face, just adds a nice glow :)

I love the Matte Bronzer!

As with most MAC products, the quality is great, this is no exception. My draw card was the fact there is a Matte version, sans shimmer! As an oily faced girl this has been a godsend. Highly recommend!

Tips: Excellent as a contour for fair skin!

MAC Bronzing Powder Matte Bronze

I love this powder. I use it as my go to contouring, and it looks so natural. I love that it is a matte colour, as I don't like to shine and prefer a matte look all over for my face.

Tips: Great to mix with a clear lip gloss to add a subtle hint of brown to your lips

Holy grail

I have the golden bronzing powder (with shimmers) and the deep dark bronzer (matte).

I use the shimmer to tan up my skin and the deep dark to contour.

There are so many shades for everyone and you can do a natural or a full coverage look with these. Very good quality and very easy to blend.

Tips: You need these! Try out both the shimmer and the matte ones. Or try both.

(shimmer is more natural, and matte is more for contour).

A little goes a long way!

I use this bronzer in the colour Matte Bronze as I dont like my bronzer to have lots of shimmer. This is a super natural shade and is easy to blend, start with the tiniest bit in your brush and build!!! My everyday go-to bronzer to give my face a sun kissed look all year round!

Tips: Start with a small amount on your brush and use a big blender brush to keep it natural looking. Also have used it as a contour!

Fantastic product

I recently purchased this bronzer along with a brush from MAC. This bronzer is fantastic. It’s a light weight powder that is easy to apply. You can apply additional layers for a darker look.

I was sceptical when purchasing from MAC as I have rather fair skin (blue is how my husband describes it - ha!) and I thought I would look like an Oompa Loompa. To be honest the first time I applied it I think I did resemble an over tanned carrot, however have learnt with practice that a light touch and dry skin works better for me. I found if I applied straight after my foundation (when it was still a little damp) it would layer on thick.

A great product - just need time to learn how to use,

Thumbs up!

I was gifted this product in "refined golden" colour. It has a bit of shimmer in it but it doesn't come out obvious on the skin.

I've had this bronzer for around 2 years and it hasnt even dented the bottom yet, so it lasts a long time!

It gives a nice and natural finish and is pretty hard to accidentally put too much on and is easily buildable.

Nothing bad to say about it, I use it every time I want to give a little definition to my face.

in loove with this!

I really love how you can put it on and it looks really good all day and you can notice your cheekbones sort of. I wear this every time i go out but not a lot because it is expensive to buy and use everyday but its a really nice brown that suits all skin types/colours and i would recommend you try it because its a beautiful shade. It does look good on lighter skins though because you can notice it more and it creates more depth. Gives you a hit of the glow which looks nice but I don't like it all the time because I like everything being plain.
