Bloom cosmetics Mineral bronzer

Hello everyone!
Bronzer is not my thing at all. I am slightly scared of using it because previously it has made me appear orange! But a while back I got this particular mineral bronzer in sunkissed by Bloom cosmetics  from Superdrug for £1.99 on sale. I have no idea why it was there because I have never seen any other Bloom cosmetics products there. I actually didn't know that they sell Bloom cosmetics in the UK. But I did ask the sales assistant and she said that these are on sale because they might be getting discontinued or getting new packaging. I was a bit reluctant at first but yeah, beauty blogger problems. I bought it. I think they still sell this but not on the actual Bloom cosmetics site. You can probably get it from different retailers I think.
It comes in a nice little tub with a plastic lid thing on top, and you just take some out in the lid and swirl your brush around and apply it. Sunkissed is a beautiful bronze colour with shimmer to it. It's very radiant for sure and gives you a nice glow as well. In daylight, when you use this, you get a lovely sheen as well, which I quite like. I don't use this as a bronzer because I don't really 'bronze' myself in a way. I use it more as a blush near the hollows of my cheeks. Doing this it acts like a contour as well as giving me some colour. I know, I sound pretty complicated -_-
This is really very pigmented so I have to use a very small amount of it. The swatch is with a very light hand. It stays on for a very long time as well and doesn't fade either. I really like this product and have been using it quite alot recently. I don't use alot of mineral products because they are a bit hard to handle for me but I was really surprised that this didn't get everywhere.

Have you tried this product? What do you think!

  1. I've seen the Bloom products for a while but never really tried anything, I love bronzers that don't go orange/yellow and this looks a beautiful colour.

  2. I thought bloom was discontinued at least were I live they don't sell it anymore. I liked their cream blushes.

  3. What a cute illustration on it! I've always wanted to try a bronzer but I'm pretty tan right now lol. I get much more pale in the winter, so we'll see if I'm brave enough to try it. You make this seem like the perfect bronzer to start with :) Thanks for sharing this, Hareem!

  6. Bronzer is one of my favourite products! Preferably without shimmer. But this actually looks like a really pretty one! Love the fact that it's so subtle and natural. It would make a beautiful bronzer!
