The Body Shop Honey Bronzing Powder

I thought it was about time I purchased another bronzer (seeing as I own only one!) before the summer was over and out of sight. I did my research to find out which bronzers were best for pale skin and The Body Shop Honey Bronzer was a name I kept coming across. 

Seeing as it was buy one get one half price when I went into The Body Shop, I thought it would be rude not to make a sneaky purchase. Out of all the bronzers that had been named as the best for us fair skinned lovelies, this was the cheapest of the bunch. 

I love the packaging, there is a honeycomb detail which just peeks through a honey coloured lid. It's a really sleek and simple design that matches the product perfectly and it even has a handy mirror inside the lid, which is the perfect size for on the go! 

 

According to The Body Shop website, this bronzing powder comes in 4 shades: Light, Fair, Medium and Dark. However all the stores I've been into only have 3 shades available: Fair, Medium and Dark. I picked up the Fair shade and it is very light so I'm not sure how light the 'Light' shade would be. 

All the shades are matte, no shimmery faces happening here. I don't mind a bit of shimmer in my blushes and highlighters, but when it comes to bronzers I always find matte to have the most natural finish. This is not too orange and not too muddy and gives me just the hint of colour I need to not look washed out on a summers day. I also love the pattern embossed on the actual powder, it's a really nice honeycomb effect, much like the packaging, and is just a nice finishing touch. 

I'm really loving this at the moment and would definitely recommend it to anybody with fair skin struggling to find a bronzer. And at such a reasonable price, I think it will be an essential part of my collection for many summers to come.
