Bronzer Part "Too"

Along with my last Sephora.com haul, I got a sample of Too Faced Sun Bunny bronzer, $27, Sephora.com. Since I'm something of a bronzer amateur (using it as a contour/blush and not all over) I can only compare this to my Stila Sun Bronzer (shade 02).

After getting such a great deal on my Stila bronzer and highlighter combo at Sephora.com (both for $10!) I didn't think I could love another bronzer, but I found myself thinking about the lonely sample sitting in my drawer, all bronzey-pink and delicious.

So one day I just couldn't resist! I peeled away the plastic and dipped my brush into it, and let me tell you that was the absolute end of it! I'm in love... again! I used the darker shade just under my cheekbones swirled onto the apples of my cheeks, and the lighter shade (which is amazing, BTW) I use right on top of my cheekbones. I just don't feel complete without it!

This bronzer blends well and has just the right amount of shimmer. The colors are amazing but you do have to use a light hand! Which is fine with me because that just makes it last longer.
The bronzer is sold alone at Sephora.com and in a few Too Faced sets, check them out here.

This will definitely hit my basket during Sephora's Friends and Family sale (Oct. 19-Nov 2.), get 20% off on almost everything with the code FF2009! Start making your list now, and tell me what you've been waiting all year to splurge on!

The. Most. Amazing. Deal. Ever.
















After my most recent Sephora.com splurge, at checkout I was asked if I wanted to add this Stila As Good As Golden Bronzer and Highlighter duo to my order for
$10, and I thought "Why not?".

I didn't realize what an amazing deal this was until I opened the box and saw two ridiculously
large full-sized Stila products, for $10 (a $60 value)!
Stila products are so lustworthy in general, but at this price,
why lust when you can buy?

















Another great feature of this kit is that the bronzer has SPF 15.
The color is exactly how it appears in the compact (and on the website).
It gives a really nice, natural tan glow that isn't too shimmery
but not dull either (not orange at all).

I used it to contour my cheekbones and dusted a little along my forehead and jawbone.
When I put it on this morning I instantly felt so sexy.
Top it off with the highlighter on top of the cheekbones and along the
brow bone and you will positively glow!



This is such an amazing deal and perfect timing; right at the end of the summer season when everyone's complexion can use a little golden pick-me-up.




I hope you like my first round of self-taken pics, and I hope you love this deal as much as I do! Let me know what you think.
Love, iCandy
