Nars Laguna bronzer

I purchased this bronzer not so long ago after trying it on in store. I live quiet a distance away from mecca cosmetica, which is where i purchased it from, and on the drive home I couldn't stop looking at how gorgeous it looked......I was hooked.

I have a round face and this is perfect for adding shape and dimension. After I put it on my whole face shape changes. Im rather fair skinned and I thought when I first looked at it that it would be too dark for my skin but Its perfect for me, very blend-able and is very build-able. I have used this as a quick colour on my eye and it too looks amazing.

If you purchase this you will have no regrets! The only regret would be that you didn't purchase it sooner!

I will never use another bronzer again, perfect holy grail item to bronze and contour with....Im in love.

I recently gave in and purchased this bronzer online from Mecca (ouch expensive) but I can tell you that at $72 (not sure where it retails at $57) it was worth every cent!!

Absolutely no regrets! The bronzer be beautiful and silky it the tiniest hint of shimmer which prevents it from turning 'muddy' on your skin.

I wish I had given in earlier because I don't think I will ever use another bronzer again! Total Holy Grail Cult beauty product.

I absolutely adore the simple classic NARS packaging - although it can tend to get a bit filthy so I clean mine regularly (just call me Monica).

If you don't own this bronzer and would like too but are putting it off due to the price I say go for it. honestly you definitely wont regret it!

I waited until I was overseas before purchasing the Laguna bronzer because I thought I wold be disappointed and did not want to pay NZ price. I'm so glad I bought it! It completely lives up to the hype and I don't think I will be able to go back to my old favourite MAC bronzer. Its perfect for my slightly lighter skin tone as its not too dark and not orange at all. My pet hate is having orange bronzer.

It is a creamy brown colour, matte and velvety. Super easy powder to apply, I use it to contour my cheeks and it blends perfectly.

I'd recommend using a nice, fluffy brush as I found my firmer brushes would lift excess powder and leave it loose in the pan. Use a light brush and build up colour.

I'm quite pale, and I don't like to bronze up my skin much, but this bronzer is the PERFECT bronzer for contouring ever!

When I first saw it I thought it was going to be too dark on me but a little bit on my contour brush and wow it made my skin look so defined! I love how it's green-based so it counters out my redness in my face making it look more balanced. I also like how it's not completely matte as matte powders seem to make me look flat and lifeless.

I love how it's buildable too if you wanted to build up the contour from daytime to nighttime.

this product is my ultimate holy grail bronzer ever, i will never go back to using any other one, i have had my laguna for about 10 months and i have only just hit pan! lasts a very long time! the color is gorgeous i contour with it every day , you can do a more defined contour or a more natural one, it is very build-able and it doesn't look orange, cakey or muddy at all! its also very easy to blend out :) would recommend 100% worth the price

I was recommended this bronzer and told it had a very slight shimmer that was unnoticeable on skin. I would still describe the shimmer as slight, but unfortunately it is noticeable on skin. I had intended to use this as a contour colour, but it's shimmer has meant i will keep it for regular bronzing instead. The texture and pigmentation of Laguna is great, and it also comes with a mirror which is nice for travel or on the go application.

I will give all the tips to the packaging. I’ll admit, if it wasn’t for the sleek design of the compact, I would never consider paying $60 on a bronzer, when I could buy a perfectly good one for a third of that price.

It’s a very nice, sturdy, black matte compact, with the simple logo on it in white. It features an excellent quality mirror inside which is the perfect size for seeing your entire face inside. The only thing that I dislike a little bit about the compact, is that it is matte, which means every single bit of makeup will take its place on it, if you are not careful. i have to give it a wipe down once a week with a makeup remover to remove traces of make up from it.

Now to the actual product. You do get a lot of it, which I am happy about, in comparison to their highlighter, you get heaps! Mine is in the shade Laguna, which I was told was the perfect shade for everyone, and it has even won many prizes too.

I’m not a very pale person, I have an almost olive toned skin, and I found that laguna was a tad bit too dark for me. Not so dark that it was non usable, in fact, with some serious blending, it matched my skin perfectly! So depending on your skin tone, try it out too see if you need a little bit of product or more.

While it is a powder, I find that it has a lovely creamy consistency which melts on my skin. It is easily build-able and easily blended out! Also be warned you need very, very little product with this! I went a bit overboard the first time I tried it! But hey again that’s good news! A little goes a long way, and this will last you forever!

I like that it’s not glittery, or shimmery - which to me is what makes it a perfect bronzer! It’s neither too orange, or too brown! So if you’re worried about looking “fake” it won’t do that to you!

It does last on the skin a very long time, even with being someone like me who always touches their face all the time. It does transfer a tiny bit on your fingers if you are touching your face, but you’ll have to be touching it hard or very often.

The best bronzer on the market! Not orange, not muddy, just a beautiful, glowy brown bronze! Blends out impeccably. I was too poor to buy another one when I ran out so I ended up buying cheaper ones that didn't last half as long or give me the same results. I am still using up my last bronzer (which I wish I had invested in laguna again but stupid me I didn't) and when that's gone I am buying this again, I don't care how expensive it is!!

It took me awhile to get on the Laguna band wagon but now that I'm on it im not getting off !! The hype is true it's a beautiful versatile bronzer you can use it as a bronzer, contour and I even use it in my crease if I'm in a hurry !! . It's a dream to work with never looks orange or muddy and blends perfectly ! The packaging is high quality, sleek, sturdy and has a inside mirror. My only downfall with nars packaging is the grubby finger marks on the matte packaging not enough to put me off this though !! It's quite expensive but in saying that there's quite abit in the pan and I've had mine about 6 months using it daily and haven't hit pan yet

I picked this up a long time ago as it is another product that gets mega hype on YouTube! I also was going through a major palette phase so picked this up in a NARS special addition palette that had a small Orgasm blush and Laguna bronzer. I have since picked up Nars Orgasm Blush in full size.

Nars packaging is lovely. With a black rubberised finish they do pick up makeup off your hands and table quite easily but that doesn't bother me. I do like that these are quite thin, makes them very easy to travel with. There is a mirror in the lid. But I don't really see the point of that when it is so thin.

I find Laguna a great bronzer, a wee bit darker though than what I use on an everyday basis. It is quite pigmented but else very easily built up and blended. It is more of a product to add a healthy glow as it does have a shimmer in it, not a glitter but a definite shimmer. I actually quite like that in a bronzer as it adds a healthy glow. This lasts as long as any other powder on me.

I find this quite dark on my mega pale skintone (although some still like this on pale skin) so do check reviews online to see if you will like this before purchasing as the full sized product is quite large and will last a long time.
