Favorite powder bronzer! Most bronzers look too orange and warm on my pale skin, but not this one. ...Great for my pale complextion...I was doing ok with one that came in a tarte palette but I was still finding it a little too dark and so I was doing some digging on what would work best on pale skin and came across this. Really I didn't want anything too much and this isn't for me.
What it is:
A travel-size bronzer that fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient® Lighting Powder with bronze pigments to add depth and dimension for a sunkissed glow.
What it does:
Perfectly sized for travel, each mini compact fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient Lighting Powder with bronze pigments for sheer, airy, buildable color with a radiant finish. While traditional bronzer tends to be flat, Ambient Lighting Bronzer uses Photoluminescent Technology for seamless blending and color transitions. The hand-made powders are formulated using an advanced miscelare technique—which means "to mix" in Italian—creating the perfect balance of pigment and powder, and no two look alike.

Way too orange for pale skin!...I can’t speak for everyone but with fair skin, I prefer a cooler toned bronzer.
