Now that summer is officially here, I bring to you stuff that makes me happy as of late, and as you all know...it's BRONZER TIME !!
So I know a lot of people are out there on the market looking for something that's gives them that sunkissed glow. I don't blame you, whatsoever. So I ordered Rouge Bunny Rouge's bronzing liquid to see what it's all about...
Packaging: It's in a tall, slender pump, clear frosted packaging like their illuminators.
Texture and formula: I'm personally biased towards liquid bronzers, as it tends to look more natural, than powder. It's definitely lovely on my skin as a soft sheen, when sheerly applied. So I tried layering this on, and the shimmer is definitely more apparent when layered. The formula in of itself is a runny liquid, so it's easy to spread out quickly. It takes a couple of seconds to set, which isn't bad at all because I do like an extra moment to adjust the coverage.
Color: It's like a golden honey-light caramel color, which I know will work gloriously on paler skintones. I know it's very hard to find a bronzer that doesn't make you look like an oompa loompa, but for those of you who are very fair, this won't look orange at all.
Size and Price: 1.75 fluid ounces; $100 (approximately given the conversion rates from GBP to USD)
Onto the photos :)

oddly enough in this picture you can see the shimmer when layered.
I actually love the pretty shimmer this gives off! Very nice product!
ReplyDeleteI don't mind it either, but I know some people shy from shimmer.
ReplyDeleteyour reply is the fastest i've ever gotten. LOL i luv it <3
I like the fact that it looks so subtle...tanned girls don't exactly need more bronzer but good illuminator :O
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous and I love, love, love the shimmer!
ReplyDelete@poseylass i could use a tiny bit more color. it's a nice illuminator too :)
ReplyDelete@makeup merriment i love the shimmer too :D
OK you just HAD to throw in how great it is for fair skin! GRRR!!! I have so many lemmings right now!! I still seem to be having an issue applying the RBR highlighter though. I need to work on my liquid product application techniques :-(
ReplyDeleteThey both look beautiful, but can you explain how you use them? I have Bella Bronze but every time I look at it I just don't know what to do with it!
ReplyDeleteLove this but I think the price tag is a little steep for me!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean when it comes to the price tag...but I'd prefer to pay a bit more for a liquid bronzer than a powder one (ex: Guerlain terra inca), but that's probably just me.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather save my pennies for the LMDB kabuki that I need to get now. :p Actually, I enjoyed this post thanks for featuring something new.
