Closer Look: Sally Hansen/Carmindy Sun Glow Bronzer in Spring

December 18, 2011

I picked this up during the CVS beauty clearance because I wanted to see what drugstore bronzers were like these days. I really wanted the Summer shade, but the one in my CVS was broken. :(

The product itself is very pretty, and I discovered a compartment below with a small brush as I was taking these photos.

I found it difficult to swatch, but here's what I managed. Maybe I can get a face shot in sometime. :)

The bronze shade appears matte, and comparable to other bronzers that I have. The pink highlight is nice, if you like pink highlight, and the shimmery bronze shade (that is difficult to see) is sparkly, but not too much so when it's on my face. Blended together, this combination gives a nice blush/bronze look.

It's a great purchase for the holidays if you can find it on sale at CVS (about $3.50), but given my needs I probably would not have purchased it for the full price. (I would much rather put that towards a cheek product from theBalm, Nars, Dior or Guerlain!) However, I do like how it looks on.

If you can find it, it's a great value & nice rosy bronze shade on the skin. If you avoid the shimmery bit you can get a matte shade as well!
