Essence, Sun Club 01 natural bronzer

Product Information

Promising Review: "This is the best gel-creme bronzer I’ve ever used. It applies beautifully with a Beauty Blender and last all day, no touch-ups required. It also looks the most natural, especially on mature skin." — Nancy, a Neiman Marcus reviewer As you can see this bronzer looks very natural on the face. It does add a nice bronzy glow to my skin but it isn’t too much. In fact this is natural enough that I feel I can keep on applying this without it looking too much on the skin. I am really liking what this looks like on my face. Is this my favorite bronzer ever? I haven’t used it enough yet to make such a bold claim but I am certainly liking it. My final thoughts

Promising Review: "I'm very fair and this works incredibly well as a mix-in with foundation. It adds a subtle amount of color that looks natural (not overly orange or yellow). New favorite!" — Evelyn, a Sephora review

Promising Review: "I absolutely love this stuff. The [way it feels] on my skin and the fresh clean look it gives without making my skin oily. It also has a nice bit of coverage. It’s wonderful!" — Robon, a Jones Road reviewer Similar to powder and cream bronzers, you want to target any areas the sun would typically hit like your cheekbones, jawline, forehead and the temples (aka the perimeter of your face). If you want to amp up your faux tan, add a dot at bridge of liquid bronzer along the bridge of your nose, cupid's bow and over your eye lids. How We Chose the Best Liquid Bronzers Promising Review: "I love this bronzer. It has lasted so long and gives a perfect natural bronzed look. It doesn’t add a gross texture to my face and looks just like [second] skin." — Olivia, a Sephora reviewer INGREDIENTS: MICA, TITANIUM DIOXIDE, TALC, DIMETHICONE, BORON NITRIDE, SILICA, BIS-DIGLYCERYL POLYACYLADIPATE-2, SYNTHETIC WAX, ETHYLHEXYL PALMITATE, OCTYLDODECYL STEAROYL STEARATE, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, BHT, TIN OXIDE, PHENOXYETHANOL, MAY CONTAIN/ [+/-]: CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499 (IRON OXIDES). If you have warm undertones (the veins on your wrist look green), rich golden shades will compliment you. On the other hand, those with a cooler natural tone (veins look blue) should look for a bronzer with peachy hues.

The secrets to nailing cream and powder makeup 

Promising Review: "I love this sun glow gel. I use a small amount on my face after my skincare routine and it really does create a subtle glow that lasts all day." — a Nordstrom reviewer

However, application is key to keeping your bronze looking subtly sun-kissed. More on that to come… How do I choose the right bronzer shade? It all comes down to choosing the right brush and knowing how to use it. On that note, let’s dive into which brush works best for every type of bronzer. Which type of brush should you use for bronzer? The good news about any Essence product is how affordable it is. This bronzer retails for a mere €3.59. That is super affordable for any bronzer. It comes in two different shades of which this is the lightest one. It is also called: cococa-cool which has me very pleased. Most of the time Essence bronzers are far too orange and dark and this shade instantly looked like something that I might like. What does this bronzer have to offer?

The biggest isn’t always the best when it comes to bronzer brushes. When contouring – especially on the nose – the more precise the shape, the more clean-cut the finish. Promising Review: "It really makes my skin look good without anything else and I'm 64! [It] lends a beautiful wash of color to the face as well as being good for your skin. Love it!" — Sharon, an Ulta reviewer Promising Review: "As a brown skinned girl, this really helped my skin tone get an even complexion! I look so glowy and bronzed that this is a perfect product for the winter, and applies smoothly with my moisturizer." — Zaina, an Ulta reviewer

The Essence Hello, Good Stuff bronzer is a great bronzer for my pale complexion. It has a great texture, it looks natural and is easy to apply. The fact that this is super affordable to boot is only a great plus point. For a cheap bronzer like this one, I think this may definitely be one of the best ones I have ever tried. Would I recommend the Essence Hello, Good Stuff bronzer? Promising Review: "I’ve used many contour products but this one just blends in perfectly and does not emphasize any of my texture." — Maria, a Sephora reviewer We all know that a good bronzer can help transform your face: emphasising cheekbones and jawlines, and giving your face a sun-kissed glow without any UV exposure are just a few of the multifaceted bronzer’s talents.

As you can see this is a warm toned bronzer that is very fair and not too orange. It has a lovely texture and a neutral shade that is easy to blend onto the skin. I love applying this with a large stipple brush and it looks very natural on the skin. This is a great shade match for my fair skin. I think I have found a bronzer by Essence that works very well for me. How does this bronzer apply? Before & after Promising Review: "It's easy to apply from the spray bottle, and the watery textured liquid transforms your skin in a bronzed glowing goodness. It has a tiny bit of shimmer and feels very comfortable on the skin." — An Bloomingdales reviewer When it comes to the formula, everything from matte powders to sheer creams can be applied flawlessly with a brush – you just need to find the right one.
