Way too orange for pale skin!...I can’t speak for everyone but with fair skin, I prefer a cooler toned bronzer. I know it’s not meant to contour, that it’s a bronzer, but with super fair skin, the orangey/yellow tones tend to make you look sick, like I have jaundice or something. ...Cream Bronzer...I have very pale skin with pink undertones and while I do like the shade, I think it is slightly too yellow/orange for me.
